    Sentinel’s having internal discussions about pink vs. red. :ph34r:

    Given that the Zeta is scheduled for a January 2021 release, I wouldn’t expect to see painted prototype pics of the Houquet ride armor until later this year at the earliest.

    Yeah, there hasn't been anything seen since Wonderfest. :(

    I'm no economist, but I'm pretty sure profits are maximised by releasing the same mold in as many variations as possible*. ;)  Eg - VF-1Whatever

    *Except for Bandai DX, Fuke knows what business model they use for those... :unsure:

    Great guide, @jenius. It'll be my reference once my Legioss arrives.

    My characters lineup it's almost complete now:

    Very nice work. Good sculpts qnd painting. Are those your models, and if so are they available as STL files?

    I'm also involved with several Mospeada related 3D prints. :unsure:

    I lost one of my intake fan covers. NOOOOOOOOOOoooooooo! They fell out all the time.. one rolled away.

    Have you checked between your cushions or wife's pillows? Small parts tend to get stuck there... :unsure:

  4. Out of curiosity, why would you want a second one? Wouldn't it be prudent to just wait for the red, green and black variants? Wouldn't you also then be compelled to stock up on matching Treads..?

    Just wondering, not judging... :unsure:

    I've placed many orders with Oh My Primus for third party and Hasbro/Takara Tomy Transformers over the years and there's never been a problem. I've never ordered a DX Valkyrie from them before tho, so take you're chances with BANDAI's distribution if you dare. ;)

    You need to choose full payment or place a deposit.

    They are an online and retail store in Singapore.

    Friends, I share with you a work in progress that I am doing.

    There are some renderings in cellshading and screenshots of viewport to show the wireframe.

    I have in mind to print it on a 3d printer, but I still have not defined the scale.

    I think it would be great 1/12, for the riobots, but I still have to finish it.

    What do you think?

    Thank you and Enjoy!

    That's looking really good!

    Will you be releasing the STL or 2D files for sale?

    I know another guy that has a bunch of 3D MOSPEADA and one ROBOTECH models in progress as well.

    Like I said, “minor” concern. ;)

    More pressing, I do hope they can:

    1). Improve the gap behind the bomber cockpit (and probably come up with a way to integrate in the Armo-Soldier chestplate with it too).

    2). Minimize the gaps between the two main boosters and the central array (and likewise, minimize the gap between the thighs and center fuselage in bomber mode);

    3). Incorporate the shoulder missile hatches that CM’s has;

    4).  Have the Legioss lock in place securely and have the overall fighter combo look good; and

    5).  Find a way to attach the Gatling gun in bomber and in fighter combo mode.

    I wonder how many design liberties Sentinel will take with the Tread. Their Legioss is nice, but not 100% accurate.

    Here I'm wondering, if Sentinel's Tread toy was made to be non-transformable and bomber mode only, how palatable would it be? It would certainly keep the costs down.

    After all, Tread seemingly exist in collections mostly as a bomber-mode add-on to the Legioss fighter / soldier mode  - much like how Macross super packs / armors goes onto the Valkyries..

    Nope, because...

    I'm still not liking the proportions :(

    The head is too big like the shoulders, the forearms are short. The torso is also big and the legs on the short side. 

    I looks very well build, and being a Sentinel product it's guaranteed being a quality product. But I'm still not sold on the proportions.

    If it helps, I consider the Sentinel Legioss design to be a revision similar to the new bike designs. The transformation has been revised after all.  I prefer the larger head, but otherwise I agree that the proportions do look a bit squat, and the abdomen gap looks strange, but maybe I'll get used to it. :unsure:

    I think the implication is that "no desire" means not enough to warrant mass production and the proof of that isn't the few of us liking a prototype... It's in this thing selling well if it gets made.

    I'll be happy with Dana/Jeanne and hopefully Zor Prime/Seifriet. 

    Strange to think that if HG didn't pick up Southern Cross chances are this wouldn't exist at all... :unsure: Cavalry of the Southern Cross wasn't even popular in Japan when it was broadcast.
