    I loved this guy in MK. He stole the show.

    I wonder if BBTS will come through...

    Hopefully they fixed the mold and there won't be the same giant gap between the chest and back plate in fighter mode. Clipped pic from AnyMoon (don't sue me @jenius) : Also the reissue I had was sorta floppy; hoping for better clicky joints on this one.

    For anyone who wants one but hasn't pulled the trigger, the Blacktron Renegade is on sale for half off right now at Target.

    I like it. The head/helmet is so good. Why do so many collab TFs look better than the mainline ones? I'm a little over Stranger Things and I kinda wish this was just a plain van. A friend said this could use an A-Team repaint.

    I kinda like that Hergoss valkyrie! Would have been a decent bootleg Angel Bird. I like it better than the red/white/blue Joons.

    My preorder is listed as in stock but with no way to pay, and no email notification. I guess they're figuring out shipping cost?

    I hope so...getting nervous.

    I don't love the minifig design. I think if a non-Lego brand wants to take off, they have to have a minifig design that is somehow "better" than Lego. I've always been impressed with Mega(Blocks)'s minifigures. But they might almost be "too good", if that makes any sense. Closer to a small action figure than something compatible with bricks. I think they need something cute and blocky and charming to hit the sweet spot, but also ball-jointed to be "better" than Lego. If a company could do that, and put out non-licensed sci-fi Space sets, I'd be tempted to jump ship. Lego's treatment of its legacy themes is f*cking disgraceful.

    I swear I have a 1/60 Hikaru on order from somewhere. Probably already paid for. I couldn't tell you which website. I hate this. It's like everything has turned into a kickstarter. EDIT: The good news is I was able to search my email and found an update from AmiAmi. Looks like I didn't prepay at least.

    That is definitely one of the thousand words that came to my mind. Or maybe it was just that one word, a thousand times.

    A picture worth a thousand words:

    Wow, nice. So they're doing much better than Lego on that front.
  16. danth
    That does look nice! I'm interested to know the ratio of printed parts to stickers.

    You know that feeling when you're hoping things are mis-transformed in official pics? 🙂
  18. danth
    Huh, another difference I didn't notice consciously! Good eye. Looks like they're leaving themselves the option to leave off the rear cockpit extension in future releases if they want to match the official design. Hmm, so what do we think of the feet in fighter mode, gang? They don't stick out too badly IMO.
  19. danth
    I like the price. Can't say I like any of the design changes. The LERX position in Armo Soldier mode is surprising, I didn't notice that before. I'd like it a lot more in a canon color scheme, and without the high-heeled boots. I assume the feet stick out too far in Fighter mode until pics prove otherwise.

    I also appreciate that they somehow captured the essence of the box art pose without him looking like he's squeezing one out:
  21. danth
    There's the money shot. About as good as I could have asked for.
  22. danth
    Yay! I won't lose any sleep then.
  23. danth
    Good to know. But I don't even care about the tariff stuff*. I'm just worried about them not getting any Treads, or not getting enough. *I mean, I do, but that's a whole different subject.
  24. danth
    Anyone else have the Tread on preorder from BBTS? I haven't heard anything and I'm wondering if they'll be able to honor my preorder.

    The terrible gaps, the bad proportions, the wrongness of the legs and shoulders...it might be the perfect Robotech toy!
