Thnx, things have changed since I was last really active on here.
-
I would like to link some photos here as well. Back in the day I used photo bucket before it became paid. Can anyone recommend a good (free) site?

So I finally got my Sentinel blue Legioss x2 today. One I combined with the Tread and the other I display in soldier mode. It felt like a nightmare transforming it the first time. Especially the hips that had the pin twisted backwards on one leg. Once a understood the transformation i could get it from fighter to soldier mode in under 10 min. The look great on my shelf, a worthy successor to my old Robotech Alpha/Beta combo.

I also recently stepped back in after leaving once the Beagles came out. Bought the Beta/Tread (very solid) and a used Sentinel Alpha/Legioss from EBay (still underway). I hope I don’t run into a lot of issues, I’ve heard about the wing flap so I also bought a reissue from Gundamit to display one as Armo soldier and connect one as Alpha/Beta. They’re 224 dollars over there if anyone is still looking.

Got my Riobot Tread today from Bombusbee. Very happy with it. Had a hard time finding one that wasn’t like almost 500 euro to ship to The Netherlands. It just showed up in stock one day with a price of just 273 euro. I couldn’t believe it but pressed buy now immediately. Thank god I didn’t wait, were gone pretty soon after that.

I haven’t been active on these forums for many years. After the last Mospeada renaissance with the Toynami, CM, Megahouse and Beagle figures I tought my favorite series was done for. For some reason I just decided to come take a peak and damn was surprised to see everything alive and kicking again. I immediately ordered the Sentinel Riobot Legioss and Tread, the full set of Sentinel Riobot ride armors and pre-ordered the pose+ Legioss. I know I’m very late to the party but I’m incredibly stoked to be part of this second wave of Mospeada revival.

That's a bummer, I'm really interested in this.
-
I somehow like them better in bike mode.
-
Is of me or are these sold out most places? Does anyone know a place that still has Sentinel Ley for sale? *besides Ebay
-
I honestly don't remember. It must have been over 9 years ago or something. I remember them being shown on this forum and being difficult to get even back then. I think i got them from EBay.

We're talking in circles here. If you're happy then my reasons don't matter. Just like your arguments don't convince me at this point (nothing personal). I still believe they could have done a better job. Having a plastic peg of this size stay pegged in better is not an impossible task. And i do feel i paid about 80 - 100 more than i think it's worth. The fact that there's worse crap out there doesn't weigh in to my decision. As for this being an expensive hobby, i know all about that. So let's indeed agree to disagree. Enjoy your purchase. I would never take away from a collector's enjoyment of a figure. These are my reasons and mine alone. I personally can do without this one. Now if in the meantime more video's show up that convince me otherwise I'll give it a shot, I'm not that stubborn that I can't change my viewpoints on something.

Nobody minds the fact that it is all ball jointy and fiddly as heck. Things tapping in securely is not to much to ask at this price point or this size though. Many figures of this size have secure taps and ball joints and don't pop lose at the slightest touch. Are those unrealistic expectations? Not to me they're not. We've come a long way since the days of the Beagle ride armour and i don't see those years reflect in the build quality looking at the reviews.
-
EBay. Was the cheapest one there at that point.
-
The build quality and things popping off. Looking at the size and the price it's just not worth it to me. I love Mospeada to me but this thing has left a sour taste in my mouth before I even received it. A shame really because I was exited for this thing. The 245 dollar price tag just hurts at this point.
-
I'm sorry i pre ordered so far in advance. Mine will be in The Netherlands in about 2 to 3 weeks. I will be selling it for for the same price i bought it 245 dollars excl shipping. The video's just put me off. I'll be fine with my Beagle ride armor.
