  1. Nice add-one. Although I'm not sure why saddle bags would have what look like air-vents... Heh, I started doing the Rey bazooka too. It's possible, with some fine tuning (like a 0.2 nozzle), to get good results with a budget FDM printer. But you're quite right, a decent SLA would be more appropriate. Otherwise making the parts available through Shapeways as high detail materials could be a viable option for most people here.
  2. In addition to what has been mentioned already, the Blowsperior and Bartley had a different engine block to the MOSPEADAs. The characther heights would need to match, otherwise the bike dimentions would need to be altered. What im curious about is if the female and male armor are compatible with other ride armors... A red female Blowsperior would be sweet.
  3. Did HLJ (or whoever you ordered from) sort out your missing heel piece?
  4. Thanks. I posted here as I sorta remember someone posting it in the VF-19A thread... Many thanks! He saved thousands of lives...
  5. For Isamu's VF-19A appearance in Frontier Movie, is there a canon backstory for it? i thought there was one involving Isamu wanting to get back into flying again years after the events of Macross Plus...

    Dependis on your credit card provider. There should be a clause for 'delayed delivery goods' which can allow up to 540 days for delivery. So, if NY refuse to refund you, take all the communication and information to your credit card company to begin a dispute, you should phone them for info first. It is important to make it clear that the purchase was for 'delayed delivery goods' which is what we commonly refer to a a 'preorder'.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    What payment method did you use for PayPal? If a linked credit card you can force a refund. If you used a linked bank account or PayPal funds you could be out of luck...
  8. Have you sent an inquiry to Sentinel Direct? There is the Golden Week holiday period to consider too. I paid HLJ last Thursday, requested/paid PW shipping Friday and they shipped this morning (Tuesday).
  9. Nice work. Realistically, to 3D print tiny weapons like these you'd need a good SLA (resin) printer. Even then you might be struggling. Most people use FDM (plastic) so they can make larger models instead.
  10. Okay, cool. Yeah, release date was yesterday. Sentinel announced it on Twitter a few weeks ago.
  11. Aren't Japanese names genderless..?
  12. T-REX basically engineer the transforming toys for Sentinel and Arcadia, so I suspect the result would be similar. They also did the Beagle Ride Armors and Yamato third generation Valkyries. Supposedly the VF-171 for Bandai too...
  13. Mostly yes, although the original Beagle Stick was really loose. It was rectified for the Rey and Toynami releases. The Beagle isn't fragile for a masterpiece style, ages 15+ toy, so to that end it is very sturdy.
  14. Very nice collection there Tubes78, but that pic above... something seems off... HLJ has just changed their stock status to 'Discontinued'. Expecting auto-billing in 8 hours. /
  15. I think he meant the saddle packs on the back of the bike. They could be the T-REX Wonderfest exclusives.
  16. Could well be a tease if these are selling well and what Jenius said about Sentinel wanting to explore different bikes. That Blowsperior is an update - the cowling, sabers and, yeah, mudguard are updated
  17. It would just need approval from the rights holder, be it Aramaki, Artmic or Tatsunoko. For all we know Aramaki may have new designs for the Blowsperior and Bartley variants. Nice spot Capt.
  18. HLJ jumped from end of April to end of May when the month changed. It's also available there again if anyone's interested. The Amazon Japan release date is usually a lot more accurate. Is the Sentinel Rey ride armor still scheduled for release tomorrow?
  19. Is there any news of the Evolution Toys ZETA Legioss being released? It was scheduled for April... Awesome! Thanks.
  20. So, does this mean we're all getting Ley'ed on the 3rd of May?
  21. I have a bunch of peeves with the parts easily popping off, but for the most part it's solid. I think we have only seen one pic of an actual break so far. If you have the Beagle, Megahouse or CMs then you should know what to expect - a fiddly toy that takes some getting used to. I wouldn't go in expecting a Masterpiece Transformer level of design quality, but as far as development goes it doesn't get much better than T-REX. Realistically, at 1:12 scale it isn't going to get much better than this, but the random armor popping off is a legitimate annoyance. Whoever asked - The helmet cones apart by applying a mild amount of gentle sideways force to the chin guard and moving it forward over a nub. The face then comes off easily and the visor slides out in a forwards direction - it's held in place by very small nubs where it rotates.

    Yeah, about 10 hours ago.
  24. They have been around for years. I bought some Transformers from them a few years ago - no problems.
