Did you cancel a bunch of preorders from them recently?   If not. you can try "forgot password" and do a password reset too see if it would work. 

No, I think the listing is a glitch. I was able to login and even though it states 1 left in stock, when I add the item to my cart, my cart shows empty. I thought it was fishy that I hadn't received any nofifications from HLJ after I added the item to my wishlist last weekend.

Woah, hey! Let's keep it clean......for the kids.

Spidey's holding Lee's feet while he's doing killer sit-ups; get your mind out of the gutter! 

If anyone has an extra, or simply wants to part with theirs, please PM me.

If anyone wants to part with their Sentinel Legioss, please shoot me a PM.

Just a heads-up to everyone: I'm going to be re-issuing the King Crab (Inbit Gosu) in July, so the whole 1/48 Space Crab set will available again for a short time. Price will be $336 Canadian shipped to all Canadian/US locations. International orders may be directed to Brett over at Return 2 Kit Form.

QC issues aside, I really like what Sentinel did with the Legioss. While I would have preferred it to be at least 15% larger and have more painted plastic (because in a few years, that nice white plastic will be quite yellow) it's still a great effort that gets extra points for ingenuity.

<---Likes this thread!

Bad guy mecha don't usually sell well enough to justify production runs typical of even collector toys. The other problem with the Inbits is the notable disparity in size of the various types. In short, get used to garage kits or do without.

Oh, and I'm re-issuing the Blueberry Crab on June 1st. Photo courtesy of derex3592

Hello Captain, Can you remember to us the shpping cost ?

I have a distributor for international orders now. You'll have to contact Brett over at @Return To Kit Form for that information.

is this for the Sentinel release?

Yup.

For those who might have missed-out, this is currently being re-issued.

This popped up on my FB Feed today.

The STL looks like it is probably based on the old IMAI kit or Gakken toy, with some revisions and refinements.

Legioss STL Files

The way the shoulder hinge is designed, the hinged ankle guards, and the way the LERX mates to the mid-fuselage indicates that they "borrowed" from my 1/32 Beast, and them butchered the design in other areas.

Oh, and the kit is officially out! Simply PM if interested. Scale is 1/48, and actual size is 17.1cm in height.

Hey all,

Episode 42 of the Scale Model Podcast is out. If you want to understand why my new mecha design looks the way it does, you need to listen to this!

I've also uploaded the instruction files for the new kit on Facebook, for those who want a look. There are too many plates to upload here (36) so I'll just leave you with the painting guide.

I wonder if this method would work for that area?

 

No. The broken part needs to pivot while also having a hint of flexibility. CA glue has very poor resistance to torsional loads, so not only will it not work, but it'll also leave your parts caked with unsightly CA residue. Best bet would be to back-engineer the part and 3D print something in ABS.

Didn't SEGA release a vinyl figure bigger than that?

You may be thinking of Tsukuda.

A testament to the quality design of the base kit! 

 

… now make some Hovertanks already!! 

In as much as Meptoys announced production of SC merchandise, I won't be poking the bear.

Very clever how you made the cannons removable! 

Heads-up guys!

I'll be re-issuing the Pinky and Baby Space Crabbs as part of Crabb Awareness Month; pre-orders go live next week. I'd upload a pic, but the site is malfunctioning ATM.

I hate being a voice of dissent, but that's just horrible. Whatever may have been said about the aborted MAAS offering, the previews they had shown were leaps and bounds ahead of this. When will people ever learn that quality is the cheapest and fastest path to success?

Well Fuke me! That Bartley looks excellent! Hopefully the new Sentinel versions are what they'll use for Genesis Breakers. Nicely modernized yet faithful to the spirit of the old designs.

Of course!

I finally resurrected my Tsukuda Hobby vinyl EVAs, after over a decade in storage...

IMHO, those were the nicest NGE EVA units. Shame that the pre-painted figures were so sloppy. I had the EVA-01 kit and was enamored with the proportions, but I loathe vinyl kits.
