So can I confirm that the re-released Hayate is indeed better than the first press?

I was going to skip out on the Tread but I snagged an open one from Mandarake for Y35000. At that price I couldn't say no.

I bought one of these because I was very curious and just got it in a few days ago: Pros: -very solid, high-quality feel to the materials (mostly). -great poseability in Battroid mode -some interesting design choices that make the figure feel dynamic Cons: -Barely anything tabs together in Gerwalk or fighter mode, and what does uses very shallow, tiny tabs that will likely break after time -Impossible to get it aligned in fighter mode, even after finagling and massaging it for nearly an hour -Fake chest inserts for Battroid, and also a fake upper/shoulder insert. I hate parts-forming, so this was annoying. Head just floats, doesn't peg to anything without the insert -Floating waist, die cast hips don't connect to the nose cone -Broke off one of the antennae when trying to adjust the legs in fighter mode, the head doesn't really feel like it sits anywhere properly in any mode -Standard fist that can fold into the arm doesn't have a hole for the rifle, so parts-swapping is necessary when not in fighter-mode Honestly if this thing was $100 less, i'd be ok with it, but as it stands it isn't quite as solid and "toyetic" as I was hoping for.

I LITERALLY LITERALLY got Riobot Stick and Hoquette in like, last week. Dammit. This thing looks like pure sex. Yes I know it's Toynami, but MOSHOW is amazing now, and personally this design appeals to me fiercely. Hopefully it doesn't impact the Riobot prices too much for resale (although my Stick and Yellow already have the cracked struts issue).

God frakking dammit, this stupid thing made me start collecting Classified, after I swore I would stick with the modern 3 3/4. Aargh I don't need another toyline to collect but this is just so damn cool.

I've got to say i've been having some pretty bad luck with my Metal Robot Damashii figures lately. A piece on my Bael broke off the other day, and prior to that, the very fragile plastic hinge on the backpack connector for the Akatsuki funnels also broke off. I'm past the point where I ham-hands stuff now, so I was horrified when both happened. Nothing crazy glue can't fix in both cases, but very disappointing. I'm also noticing that the joints on a lot of my MRD's, particularly the real type Knight Gundams, have become extremely loose over time from nothing but sitting in a detolf.

I'm gutted about episode 9. What an absolute waste.

I'm probably going to get both of these. I had sold off my entire MASK collection when I realized that keeping vintage toys around was just a disaster waiting to happen as they degrade over time. That said, if this is just a nearly straight-up redo of the vintage Thunderhawk, i'm not sure I see the point of it. The Shark as a gap-filler I can understand. To be honest, I kind of wish they had made these in 3 3/4 scale, since i've always wanted to have my Joe's interact with MASK. I get it would have made things a lot more expensive, but it would have been neat.

Darn, I was hoping by this point someomeone would have done some Shapeways magic with it. Thanks for the update!

I know I’m very late to the game on the Riobot Ride Armors, but has anyone figured out a fix for the cracked joints in the Stick/Ray/Yellow bikes, or is it just crazy glue and prayer?

Did you mask off the painted areas or apply hydrogen peroxide all over? If you applied all over, I guess it didn't affect the paint?

Thanks yeah, that's the problem with mine - right leg is fine, left leg won't stay snapped on.
-
Is anyone else having fitment problems with their 31Ax super parts in fighter mode? I can't get the front air intakes to both stay attached to the body no matter what I do.
