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

He did get one thing wrong in the review.

It actually IS possible to put Stick in the armour without removing the helmeted head.

All you have to do is open the visor and put him in at a slight angle. Works no problem for me and does not scratch in the slightest.

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??

Well I preordered the Toynami version, but if Beagle is asking for consumer's feedback, we'll probably see an improved Stig re-release sometime soon, which means I'll have to get the Japanese version anyway, since Toynami won't be able to release it stateside, due to the Limited Edition thing.

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!!!

I agree with vostok 7on everything ,he nailed it with No.4

bike mode-tank and seat connection needs to lock together better-pops out all the time!

If anyone has a problem with the wheels lining up (front & back ) in bike mode, I found that the kick stand can prevent the front wheel from locking/lining up .

Swivel the kick stand and you,ll see a connection point where the wheel.s white stem base and it are mean,t to fit into eachother!!

If there is another problem NOT related to the kickstand/wheels not lining up ,I retract this statment.Hope it helps!!

1.anime accurate head sculpt

2.if cloth IS changed ,and is a tighter fabric/material-arms and legs will have to be thicker to compensate

(otherwise arms & legs will look toooo skeletal)

Alex is right

1,front wheel armor/forarm armor -tighter

Tober is right

1.chest armor -to connect tighter to the central armor (pops out)

2. windshield -tighter fit in bike mode

1.new material to replace cloth

2.make the friction points lock together tighter ,to make a tighter bike for multiple transformations.

3.tighter fit targeting scope

4.have a tight connection site for hip-to-crotch armor

5.more tampo printing.

thanx,Troyness

hi tober, i believe u mean this right ?

i expected this to happen... the moment i see the manual, cause it is very difficult to get the 3 tabs behind to sercure into the back of the chest armour.

the white connect is meant to be a accesseries not secure the armour to the bike or vice versa..

i have attached the pics for your reference..

if i am wrong.. pls let me know..

Hi troyness, any pics which i can see?

cause maybe i might face the same problem in the future.. hahah..

and it would help all of us to prevent problems from ahppening though..

sorry eyesonme78 I don,t have a camera(all my money goes to toys),for the moment it can stay in it,s upright position but if I move the display tray it leans to the right just before the friction of the first "click",at the moment I,m swaying it to the left of it,s upright position(which it tends to aswell..just not as much as it does to the right)and using the kick stand to help keep it in it,s upright position...hope that helps .Damn I,m getting the splitting crotch seam thing to.

if any Beagle representitives read these threads ...CHANGE THE DAMN CLOTH.FOR THE LEY/RAND FIGURE I think you,ll find it hard to convince peaple to buy a v2.0 of the Stick or Ley at $200 bucks a piece

guys guys, just to check besides the crotch tearing up, anyone else had other problems, for mine, it's just the crotch cloth tearing up, but can be done with sewing.. not much problems..

But other issues? anyone else had other problems ?

the "stump" for lack of better words that locks in underneath the bike and attaches to the display tray which enables you to angle the bike ,is now loose so that it sways from either side in it,s upright position ,finding it hard to keep it in it,s upright position the slightest bump and it sways .And thats only after using it twice!!

Hmmm. I actually quite like these book-style boxes for the Cyclone.

BTW, the crotch on my Beagle is starting to tear a little. More accurately, the red is peeling of the white cloth underneath. I think I went a little too far with the hip articulation. Somehting to be careful.

Yes I noticed the same around the green shoulder armor on the figure

I hear ya with the Blowsperior!!!

I haven,t seen BBTS,s cyclone pre-order for awhile(and I could be wrong)..but isn,t it an old pre-order from the days when toynami was going ahead with their own cyclone-before they they teamed up with Beagle?.I think Ley/Rand is next...you,re right we should have seen proto pics of the Blowsperior by now if it was next in line..I actually liked the look of the Toynami cyclone-nice and chunky.

beat me to it!!

Question: BBTS shows a pre-order for Cyclone Volume 2 as being Lancer (Yellow Belmont) and then Rand (R/Ley) as Volume 3. Yet, we've only seen prototypes for Ray/Ley's (Rand) VR-052T MOSPEADA. If Lancer's is supposed to be next, isn't he supposed to have a VR-041H Blowsperior? Shouldn't we have seen prototypes already?

I want a Blowsperior badly.

I don't think it'd be wise to attach the sleeves on the arm to the chest armor, I think that'd create a lot of potential for tearing the fabric. I would rather they use a tighter and more rubbery fabric so it wouldn't move around as much. The targeting scope is definitely loose and could be much better. There were several poses I got the armor in that would have really been impaired if the hip covers attached in front like they do in the back.

I agree that posing of the legs would be limited if hip armor had an attachment point to the crotch armor in front.

It,d just be nice if it would click/lock together to make it seem more sturdy,,and then have the option of disconnecting it for posing,The connection point of the hip armor to the knee impairs posing aswell..but you then have the option of disconnecting it for greater knee poseablility

Maybe someone could commission Delta from Reprolabels to make a replacement set.

I got him to make a set for the 1/8 Gakken a while back. I'd approach him again, but I don't own the Beagle.

Thanx chowyunskinny!!!

I got a feeling the hbt cell might come out of the fuel tank,looking inside you can see it,s a solid cylinder from one end of the fuel tank to the other,pushing on either end it moves as one piece to a certain point I,m pretty sure I could work it all the way out....just working up the courage
