troyness

thanx Ravenhawk for the pic..but I was refering to the one with cloth on and Ley holding his hand pistel in an action pose. I,ve seen it around on online stores with pre-orders but is to small(just wanted to know what an enlarged pic would look like ,and to see if they,ve changed the head sculpt to your posted pic).

Theres a pic of Ley/Ray holding his gun, side profile position with no helmet (one at over-drive..etc) but can,t get a good look as the pic is tooo small. Anyone got a larger shot,or can do so ..that would be overwhelming fantastic!!!

Very good points there (I to am hoping that it is a prototype) what you,re saying is music to my ears ,lets hope that May is enough time to improve on the most common requests/complaints from collectors..Beagle has a healthy list to work from. I thank-you for you,re quick response and value you,re experience.When Beagle first released Stick they(obviously) couldn,t predict any observations from the owners -now that they do..and its basicly the same mold, lets hope May is a realistic deadline to improve on the most common faults!!! It just seems to me that it,s a bad business model to release pics with the same issues as the first release and allow online stores to take pre-orders-without advising that it,s a prototype...sure they could tell us soon officially, but it sends out the wrong confusing message. I think you may be right about shifting some Ray units slowly(unless it,s a overwhelming improvement) ,so I think I,ll wait for reviews first. As always love your reviews and will wait for it to arrive in your hot little hands,,cause I know it,ll be honest.

Jenius & Arcoray. I respect you,re opinions..I asked a few pages back if Ray was a prototype..no-one answered ,so I asumed that it is the final version. So having said that ..seeing the released photo,s (with no improvements) ,and that some places are taking pre-orders...do you know for sure that it,s a prototype/mock-up...-or are you speculating...if you have official word that it is just a prototype ,then by all means tell us to end this guess work...otherwise my word is as good as yours.

Thanx I,m new I,ll look into it.. BTW..any news on the Mospeada artbook..pricewise??

woops i mean,t $235.00 (hlj.com)

hlj.com has lost abit of their competitive edge ,$256.00 for Rays ride armor.!!!.....and over-drive what happened to the grace period of $199.00 -before jacking it up to $219.00???? beagle, since it appears at the moment that you haven,t acted quick enough on the improvement requests from the collectors ,and considering that you,re using the same mold-give us some saddle bags...god who am I kiddin,..as if that,s going to happen!!

Yeah I,m with ya on the head sculpt Exo...I like it ..heres to hoping that Beagle has listened to Stick owners. I hope that they,ve tightened the front wheel armor/forearm armor ..otherwise it,ll be front end heavy with the gun. I love the front end wheelie shot ..if only the displaystand could do that!!!!

Same old neck screw hole...same old cloth

So this is just a Ray prototype right????

Count me in for a Mospeada book!!! I,d go with over-drive again-whats the price tage??

the ankle guard armor on sticks boots with the tampo printed MB are very loose, hard for it to hold a position extended out or retracted in would be great if Beagle could tighten these in some way!!

The attachment piece under the bike which enables it to lean is great!!.....but is getting boring..it would be great if Beagle could make it an extendable ..OR .a 2part connectable piece to give it some height to enable the figure and bike to do a front end wheelie...that would be HOT ,and would give more options with displaying the figure and bike!!!

handle bar guards..aka..shoulder armor ,please try to make tighter swivel joint both are loose with 5-8 transformations.

It seems that there,s no new updates on this .Is it still slated for 2009?Don,t like the look of the promo poster!!Some of the stills look look interesting. The teaser trailer(Joe/Jason car chase scene) looks good .Heard some rumour of pre-production false starts/delays. Judging by the TMNT -the hype of the "best action fight scenes" involved with CGI with Gatchaman seems possible. Anyone know something I don,t???

Alex & Vostok You cute little pioneers ,,,shows us how it,s done

I tried last night to transform the Beagle without removing the head..angling the head with and without him attached to the to the armor pegs...and nothing. I guess I,m gonna need pics, if this is even possible, the only way that I could see it happening is warping the visor and scratching the helmet and forcing it thru!!...which ain,t gonna happen! Alex is right ..you can see that Beagle have attempted to shape the collar to do so...but I think that they didn,t make it wide enough..pushing the helmet head thru without scratching it..I just can,t see it..but if someone provides video of this being possible ,that I,d like to see

Alex lets clarify, Once you open the visor..do you mean put the FIGURE in at an angle(when do you attach his back to the pegs?) ....OR do you mean once you,ve opened the visor ,angle the figure,s HEAD ???

the Beagle scores points for the hbt cell coming out of the feul tank just tried it today,and replaced it with the other hbt cells(and here I was thinking that they were just for display) nice work Beagle...just fix those heads, screw hole in neck,different cloth and some tighter friction points on the bike..eg feul tank to seat connection and I,ll buy the Ray!!

Thanx Jenius & Tober. Would it be safe to assume that since we,ve seen prototype pictures of the Ley/Rand already that it would be too late for the improvements to be appplied (too Ley/Rand)...and maybe wait until the next production run of whoever that could be??

I,m a box collector ,I bought 2 of the Stick(1 which is un-opened mint in box AND shrink wrapped at my own expense) if Beagle re-issues the Stick I hope my original Stick will still be worth something??Theres no way I can afford another re-issue of Stick ,with the other Beagle issues thread ,I am just hoping for a better Ley/Rand figure and tighter bike!! PLEASE BEAGLE ....... don,t force me into a corner to buy another re-issue of Stick I don,t have the strength....I beg you I,ll be GOOD very very good!! I have a wife and 2.2 kids to feed...(I don,t actually ....but if I did ..they,d be dead from starvation and I,d be holding a minty Beagle with a guilty smile on my face)

Well it,s february now and the 1/6 Medicom Captain Harlock should have been out !! Anyone know the latest on this thing? Any reviews? I still see it as a pre-order in some places..but hope there might be a "pre-release" review somewhere that I,m not aware of!!!

Better stickers

Gilermo, great pic of stick inserting the hbt cell in the feul tank...did you manage to get it all the way out? Do you think it would damage the tank if you tried?(Still haven,t worked up the courage to try it)

yeah the Beagle is good..just not $200 dollars good ,and if they address the issues from the other thread it most likely will be. Thank-you very very very much Save and Exo for Beagle,s ear!!!
