  1. Saw on FB. I'm assuming this is the finalized version. Hopefully not a repost. I have to admit, the torso is longer but I'd look the other way for a well built unit. Also it's closer to the Mercy Rabbit art. (from gears online.net)

    You know it. Yellow must be busy with some music gig--can't be arsed to armour up now.

    It would be cool if Sentinel surprises us with a Houquet pre-order once Yellow's armour finally ships, though. I wonder if that might be too naive?

    Don't they have to show the finalized product and provide MSRP at some type of convention first and get it solicited before the wheels start turning? Don't quote me on this, I'm not a toy industry expert.

    It's a big & heavy toy and I love mine. I have two Scott treads plus a Red & Green! 

    That's one very impressive MOSPEADA collection you have there. B))

    Thanks! Still hoping and wishing to one day get a Lansay Legioss/Tread...probably never lol.

  4. Finally caved and got me an Aoshima Tread. I didn't expect it to HUGE! Now I have to try to move more stuff around in the glass case to make room for it. I already took out both Gakken 1/35 Iota and Zeta. I still have to place CM's 1/18 Stig and Yellow. The obsession is real! I have more in storage that I haven't displayed yet :(

    Just randomly searching Ebay and saw this. Pretty sure you don't see this  1/72 Tread kit all to often.

    Nice to see. Price is too rich for me though.  Most I paid for garage kit was $250 for a 1/8 scale Mospeada Armor-Bike and fig BUT it was one of my grail items.

    Shame of the push back. However if its for fixing Issues so be it.

     

    On the Plus side Between Cap's re release Mospeada Accessory set and Just bought my 3rd Stick (have Five Now) shipped for £125 from  Japanese site. Discount due to box Only damage. Was only going in the Bin the packaging once its opened

    Can I ask what Japanese site? looking for a second Stig to repaint. but don't want to spend a lot. Thanks.

    Given where it's placed, my guess would be 162 is his aircraft's modex number.

    No clue what 2101 might be, I don't recall seeing anything other than Battle Company numbers on Ride Armor line art.  21 would obviously refer to his being a part of the 21st Armored Battle Company, but he wasn't its leader so I'm not sure about the 01.

    Maybe 2101 is the designation number for the Mospeada.  Like Seto mentioned: it might be platoon/troop 01 from the 21st company. Assuming there were other units that would have landed besides Stig, there would have been other Mospeadas then. Probably an easier way to identify their Mospeada along with their names since each one would have been holding their personal effects, rations, canteens within the saddles. 

    As far as 162, it might just be the number of his aircraft similar to aircraft serials used in the military.

    I want to see that movie.  Preferably without Tom Cruise in it.

    Unfortunately they might just cast Tom Cruise in the lead role of Scott Bernard because he has Top Gun, and Edge of Tomorrow under his belt; and he does his own stunts. Oh, and he's halfway there with aliens, spaceships, etc. with Scientology.

    Bella Thorne as Aisha?

    Jim Austin played by Joe Manganiello

    Battra played by Evan Peters

    Sorji played by Ruby Rose

    Who'd play Mint?

    Bella Thorne??? I guess...She can't really act anyway...Aisha just stays quiet 90% of the time and will do shrieks here and there so...

    upvote on Joe, Evan and Ruby...

    Mint can just be any girl off the street because they'd be so hyped on a first acting gig and do everything over the top just like Mint would. She provided comedic relief in the show. Even her drama was laughably over the top. Ask any aspiring little actress to do a dramatic scene and they'll get her character right on the first try. Probably cast straight out of a school play.

    Growing up in the mid-80's I of course never knew that existed, if Kay-Bee or Toys R Us didn't have it, you were just SOL.  I have all 3 of the Legioss' still to this day, I always thought they were hideous even back then, but hey they were cheap and Mom and Dad got them for me to tide me over until I could get them to spring for the big Gakken's.   I used my Transformers original Topspin as my Robotech Beta back then...in my mind's eye it was the closest thing I had that came close..LOL. 

     

     

    I didn't get my first Gakken Cyclone until I was well into my 30's. I loved Robotech as a kid but didn't have the luxuries. I "created" a Cyclone with whatever handful of toys I already had. I wish I still had the same imagination I once had as a kid.

    I don't think they would charge more for a Tread than the Legioss.... Just not less. If they couldn't sell it for about the same price, they just wouldn't make it.

    I'd willingly pay up to $250 for the Legioss and up to $375 for the Tlead. I don't mind the higher price at this point. As long as it's better than the Toynami/Aoshima and CMS. I just made the mistake of acquiring an Aoshima last week(it was a good price); but the thing is just so darn disappointing. I've even watched AnyMoon.com reviews and decided to give it a go. This piece is just garbage, so many warped pieces causing joined halves to split apart, the nosecone fell off due to said warping, it won't peg together in fighter mode, sloppy paint, severe paint rub, missing paint, upper arm won't extend out fully, the plastic feels thin/brittle, etc. Fighter mode looks hideous because of the neck hinge so the head tilted down a bit and then there's a leaning issue from the knee joint.

    Gonna be stuck on diver mode I guess...

    2083 is when the Second Recapture Mission takes place in the original MOSPEADA, so this is likely a reboot. I hope they redesign the Inbit with that more organic look they teased in sketches.

    oops...youre right.

    I'd still want a ride armor Mint tho...:)

  13. Translated text under the title card of Genesis Breakers:

    The development of the "Genesis Breakers Mospeada 2083 (provisional)", which will create a new Mospeada world with toys, will start in 2020 with the cooperation of Hideki Suganuma and Shinji Aramaki.

    Like I said earlier, an OVA tie-in would be great to flesh out the characters and give it a backstory. Aramaki San has worked on a bunch of anime since Mospeada.

    Since it's 2083, and everyone will be older: can we get a Mint with her own  MOSPEADA???

    So... if I melt down the thousand dollars' worth of Evolution Toys Legioss I've bought, will the recycled plastic be worth a dollar?  :vava:

    Maybe you can make "art" by swirling the melted plastic colors together and sell it for something...

  15.  I hope the Bartley and Houquet are not finalized. I wish they can make Hoquet's heel a bit thicker so it doesn't look to much like a stiletto. Also, that G-A-P on the windshield...

    I'm actually looking forward to the Genesis Breakers. It looks like Aramaki San designed it. Hoping they make a tie-in Anime (an OVA is good enough for me but a full anime season would be even better). This would be good for business à la the old 80's cartoon/toy line formula...

    Is anyone able to translate the text right below the Genesis Breakers Mospeada 2083?

    I was thinking maybe someone could 3D print the necessary parts for this custom, but then I realized that there's just a lot of differences between each ride armor 

    Maybe someone can...There is a 1/15 Bartley model kit that has some parts that can be measured and made into a 3d model. Like this person: https://www.ebay.com/itm/3D-printed-1-4-scale-GoBots-Cy-Kill-Robotech-Cyclone-modeled-from-Monogram-kit/223571201837?hash=item340de1cf2d:g:Rk0AAOSwodNc4YlK

    He re-created a 1/12 Blowsperior kit and made it a 1/4 scale.

    Sure, I've built enough of these to recognize it at a glance:

     

    Originally produced by Imai, and recently re-released by Aoshima.  

    The front tire tread is a dead giveaway.  8)

     

    Cool, Thanks!

    Man, That Gosu is the bomb, not sure if I dig the metallic paint scheme tho. I'd love to have some enemy mecha figures or models.

    Seeing those pics of the SD Macross battroids on the front page, makes me wish somebody would make some SD Mospeada mechs and Inbits.

    Took a few pics of some of my Mospeada stuff. I've got some other stuff, so limited on room tho. I got these cases from Ikea and put in some led strips, I've got 2 more cases to build, then I could put a few more things out.
