    Anybody know if these are still available? I need one and I sent a pm to Rohby, but no response thus far. Anybody got an extra one to part with?

    Guy is a frigging genius making his email address his user name.  :lol:  :rolleyes:

    Not to make fun of the guy, but he's a member here under the same user name. I didn't notice this until today where his user name showed up on "online users" section.

    And Kensei, I guess we'll find out how credible he is in due time.

    So they are working on a tiny ass cockpit, and thats the centerpiece of this huge potentially expensive toy?

    This sound funny to any of you?  Don't get me wrong, I am glad it is being made, and of course its nice to add stuff to the cockpit, but CENTERPIECE?!

    The guy is just getting too excited about the cockpit. The centerpiece should be really the docking mechanism to the alpha. These guys better not screw up the missles bays like they did in the alpha's forearm. :angry:

    He informed me the reason the Beta is taking so long is the cockpits. Apparently, the cockpit of the Beta will be the centerpiece of the toy. Highly detailed, able to hold a figure. But the design of the cockpit, I have been told, "will blow my mind."

    I dont mind if it blows my mind. But I do mind if it blows right out of the box :lol:

    sorry, couldnt resist this.

    Here's some new Beta Fighter news, but its not official. Supposely the Beta will come in all four alpha colors.

    Here's the link:

    http://www.robotech.com/community/forum/re...7227&forumid=23

    Posted by bryan_f_davis "I had the opportunity to talk to a member of the design team. (I live down the street from Robotech world HQ, aka, Harmony Gold). This, and my job, allows me a great opportunity to do some snooping around.

    My big question was, "Why is it taking so long for the Betas?"

    He informed me the reason the Beta is taking so long is the cockpits. Apparently, the cockpit of the Beta will be the centerpiece of the toy. Highly detailed, able to hold a figure. But the design of the cockpit, I have been told, "will blow my mind."

    He also confirmed there will be 4 versions of the beta produced. Blue, Red, Green and Black. No word on who will be on the spine.

    Another point of design is the connection between the Alpha and the Beta. I asked if it would connect to the Alpha in Battleoid. He did not give me a straight answer, but laughed. ?????

    I asked if there were going to be Cyclones. The answer "If the Betas sell, there will be Cyclones." SWEET! I just hope they are not the 1/55 scale.

    There was more, but I promised not to talk about it.

    I have seen the Betas the COMIC CON, and they are amazing. I was hoping to cross paths with SDF COMMANDER, who was there and who actually got to talk to TOYNAMI reps in great detail. He has a forum someplace that is pretty rocking. I am not sure where, but...."

    And the rest is blah blah blah.

    Got my replacement part today from BBTS! :D Thanks Joel!

    As for the new site format... I did not like it at first either, but you guys have to admit its better organized and they have more marcoss stuff, so it just takes some time getting use to it. I wished they stuck w/ their old font for their logo tho because their new one just looks lame.

    Also it kind of sucks that they don't accept money orders for preorders anymore and the"R, O, L, S AFA" letter system kinda throws me off.

    Did anybody notice the $234.99 1/48 Roy? :blink:

    Update!

    Well I sent an email to Joel and this is what he replied:

    "sorry for the problem, we can send out the correct piece to you, I'll have the warehouse take a look at the set and if they need more info we'll let you know

    Thanks!

    Joel

    I didn't think Joel would help me out since it was a screw up by Yamato's factory, but man... Joel is truly a cool guy and his customer service is by far, outstanding! Even though his prices aren't always the cheapest, his customer service is the best.

    Thanks for everyone's input and help. :)

    I can't believe some of you guys are getting worked up about the fine details of Robotech. I think a daily trip to the nudie bar for a week would calm everybody down, and restore order and bring back traquility to this thread. :lol:

    Yeah, because paying half-naked women to pretend to be interested in you is a lot cooler than debating a 20 year old cartoon.

    Exactly. :p

    I'm in CA. It was shipped out on a Thursday or Friday and I got it the following Friday. So it took like about a week to get it.
