Well it,s pretty much the end of May,what,s the word on the street with the Beagle Ray??

Didn,t over-drive send out a newsletter about the shipment date a few wks back?

Samuri pizza cats ,was a deep anime!!!!

It had pizza,s,swords and cats(oh my god ,my heads about to explode)

Didn,t Ray have a 31 on his left shoulder armor??

What about the Mars insignia on the back of the bike ,just above the tailpipe??

I,m slowly becoming a lineart nazi,but if someone has the answer,that would be great

THANX

Yeah the CM,S Ray head sculpt is nice,pity Beagle couldn,t have gone in that direction aswell,sooo disapointed with the Beagle headsculpt!!!!

Beagle,s Ray looks like a MH scuplt.....not good!!

what eyesonme78 said!!!!

+ (if someone hasn,t done so already) can someone translate the text next to the tv Roy?...I ,ve gotta know what we,re in for ,so I can consult the budget!!

THANX

luv to panel line it

Very sexy!!!

Now a vf-1j in a lighter shade please!!!

Jenius ,no thats with the exo skelelton ball socket joint isn,t it?(a great idea though,I must try it)

keep all that connected !!...I,m saying with the forearm armor that connects the the figures forearm via the 2 pegs.

thre are 2 holes in the figures forearm that allow the 2 pegs from the forearm armor to connect to eachother.The thickest of the 2 pegs from the forearm armor is the one that connects to the hole in the figures forearm CLOSEST to the elbow joint.

Once this thickest peg is connected to the figures thickest hole in his forearm(the hole next to the elbow joint)you can do everything I mentioned in my previous post.God I hope this helps,I hope it,s clear,sorry if it,s not I,ll try again if so.

I get both sides of the fence concerning the Beagle line,as soon as anyone knows the release date down to the actual day of shipment (and hopefully a pre-release review)jenius,s hawk eye will let us know ..thanx mate!!!

I myself haven,t pre-ordered a Ray anywhere yet ,as to wondering if any improvements have been made.

Cloth-I personally love the look of the cloth..it,s just not lasting the test of time.

loose head-I think that one would be at the top of the list to be improved on.

ill fitting targeting scope-hopefully a close 2nd ..or 3rd.

loose forearm/front wheel armor-please Beagle!!

loose windscreen attachment-ditto.

Hey if anyone wants more posability in the arms with armor mode on the Beagle...only connect the thickest peg(closest to the elbow joint)to the forearm,that way it allows the figure to have it,s full range of movement(eg.-flexing his forearm almost all the way to his bicep)and still having the armor attached to his forearm..this also allows him more range of movement to pose his arms towards the centre of his torso in armor mode,giving you a few more posing options!!!

Sorry I don,t have a camera(it,s either a camera OR Beagles...I choose Beagles on my laughable budget),hope to see a variety of new pose,s soon on the Mospeada pose thread!!!

Lets hope Ray goes down in price by August!!!!

1/48 vf-1s Roy weathering special at angolz.com $288.00

(is this a bootleg???,seems too good to be true!!)

Is any online store recieving a Beagle Ray ahead of release for a review????

Is it still slated for a May release???

Grey (the manga),that 80,s anime "Grey digital target"-was laughable,in a bad way!!

i wouldn.t like to see a live action,but a state of the art ,no expense spared anime movie, manga accurate, using the manga as a direct story board, panel for panel!!!

Sam for spider-man 3,the crime:adding toooo many villians and not knowing what to do with them!!!

punishment:biting his own tongue off from the impact of a firm headbutt!!

Gatchaman related news:

I looked soooo hard for Gatchman t-shirts, with the bird insignia ,and the numbered t-shirts(civilian wear)

and I,ve found BOTH!!!!!

It,s not an official release from Tatsonoko(which by the way has very little options, for bird insignia OR civilian numbered t-shirts ..the only one I,ve seen ,has been 2 bird insignia versions one on a white t-shirt-Mark=cannon,one on a black t-shirt= non cannon)

It,s at redbubble.com,Ross Robinson is the artist,I,ve just recieved them and they are fantastic!!!!

Finally you can now choose which team member t-shirt to buy,made on a high quality cotton ....and other stuff ,I think these t-shirts will keep their shape for a long time.

Here are the easy to follow steps:

1.you order it

2.it,s Frickin,hand made special order!!!!(sweet!!)

3.a beautiful anime accurate t-shirt arrives

(depending on where you live approx$30.00 before shipping etc..)

Maybe it,s the lighting in this shot...but the weathering doesn,t look too excessive here...if only the mold was a light gun metal gray with the weathering ontop I,d find it hard to say no to that !!!!(maybe dreams can come true...I,ll have to apply the "SECRET" method,and make it happen)

I,m not seeing alot of Beagle posing?????

tuck the chin into the neck, hide the screw hole...I,m talkin, camera angle..sell it yo

And someone rise to the challenge of doing helmetless poses...knock my socks off!!!!

Sorry to be a newbie with this thread....sorry to waist anyones time!!(wow 2 sorry,s in one sentence..overkill??)

But I,m considering getting into this series,my questions are..

1.is it worth it...from a story arc point of view?

2. is it worth it...from an acting point?

3. and most importantly from a special effects point?(the few episodes I have seen it,s all been present day...which is the main plot right?,but I want to see endos...walking around f*#@ing people up...does it have this atleast randomly?,comments on the cgi?)

THANX.

thanx UN SPACY!!!!!

Sounds great..I,ll check it out!!

now just stay at that $150.00 dollar mark, Harlock while I gather the funds...PLEASE!!

Yamato should just release a light grey vf-1j ..that i,d buy,and take the colour sample from those beautiful box art from the 80,s models!!

Toy-wave has the Roy Focker vf-1s weathering special for re-stock$600.00

troyness when did you place your pre-order with angolz?

i think i'm gonna wait until they have them in stock.

I haven,t placed an order yet..I,ll wait until it comes instock,same as you(although I do have itchy credit card fingers!!)

Thanx for coming to the rescue UN SPACY!!!!

great review..nothing on the durability of the body sculpt..but I,m not worried I,ve had good experiences with Medicom from the purchase.s from the last 2yrs.

I,m sure if there was an issue with the body it,d had been mentioned in the review

DAMN IT!!!!

Over-drive had the Captain Harlock figure for $140.00...tooo slow now it,s order stop

just got my Hot-toys Blackjack + pinoko set (doctor version)...very lucky to have it ..only 500pieces made!!!!

Now if I could only get the unattainable Blackjack black coat version...I,ve seen it once on ebay,but didn,t have the funds at the time .also 500 pieces made ..a TRUE collectable,very rare..anyone who has it, is able to ask what they want for it on the after market...it,d be nice to have that type of power

UN SPACY.

Thats what I,m talkin, about...hell yeah!!!

It,s not the original with brown pants..but who cares THAT is the best Harlock figure I,ve seen yet.

Going from experience with Medicom...I,m very happy with my Gatchaman figures ...beautiful face sculpts that resemble the anime very well.

I also love the box art on the new Harlock figure!!!Also very curious on the thin body sculpt for this Harlock beauty!!

I think Angolz is the cheapest I,ve seen..but if anyone see,s it for less than $150.00 let us know!!!
