troyness Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Save, sorry if I,ve rubbed you the wrong way.(I guess the smilie faces didn,t help!) you,re post was about head scuplt & people waiting to buy at a cheaper price,right? The yamato,s 1/60 has a list of complaints-but it hasn,t died from people waiting for a sale. I know nothing of 1/100 Bandai valks-I believe you. I didn,t know that a fan and yourself asked to supply a list-thank you very much,if you supply a list next time I guess that means there,s no way of knowing if Beagle will read it or apply it. Rei was already in the develpoment stage when the list was being gathered,so hoping that this may apply to Houquet??(one can dream) Yes we are all human and will look for a cheaper price,if you haven,t already bought Ray then you may find yourself sale hunting prior to Houquet,s release,you are probably right Ray will sell low units. I agree with you on the head sculpts. Please don,t stop helping both sides ,it seems your really good at this. my opinion is worth less than 2cents in any post/forum like everyone else,s. I,m gonna add a couple of more smilie faces just in case ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I'm kinda surprised about the critisms for the beagle... though I don't think there are really a lot complaining. As far as the head sculpts... there's 2 to choose from. If that's not enough to satisfy anyone, there's really nothing more you can do. I'm waiting to see how much they fixed from the Stick but I'm so psyched about these toys. They're like the 1/48s for me. I never wanted anything more than the Gakken's and for them to come out with this is just so unexpected and way beyond what I would wish for in a Mospeada bike. I'm even happy about the smaller boots. I've always wished that they would shrink the boots so that the figure can sit on the bike and still look good in ride armor mode. And to have all four bikes (crosses fingers) at this scale is another dream. Being so spoiled I am now hoping for a 1/32 scale Legioss equivalent to Yamato/Beagle engineering. I'd get all three of those if it comes out. And some freakin motoslaves for my 1/12 scale figures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the best looking mospeada toy out there and puts every other ride armor to shame . Even the price does not bother me. Ik was worth every cent. Compare that to what i paid for the CM legioss+tread. That was een overpriced toy . I hope they push out every variant out there and milk the molds, Shinobu, dark ride armor, Jonathan Wolfe etc. They can knock out some extra's to like those extra bags they hang on the ride armor. Let's just hope they keep em comming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Dissapointing Megahouse probably isn't bringing out the Houquet/Rook Ride Armour, dammit! I wanted to be complete in that line...

Tober Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Really Beagle asked you for a list, they contacted you then hell they owe you the world. Last I checked a fellow Japanese fan and myself ask if we could supply a list of suggestion from those who actually bought the Stick. They said sure go for it, they never said what they would do with our lists. Being realistic which is hard to do these days in simple terms Lei was already in the oven while that list was being gathered. Also no company is going to go back to the drawing board for the one release that will most likely sell the lowest amount of units. Rei was to far in the development stage for any thing all ready laid out to be changed. Thanks for that it was great. From what I can see Beagle fixed the loose helmeted head ball, gave the cloth a better fit (this one doesn't feel as loose but it wasn't a big concern of mine) and gave the front wheel connections a better fit - not as loose as Stig's missile launchers. No other noticeable changes to the bike or figure molds but that wasn't realistically expected. They seem to have addresed the hole in the side of the neck with Fluke's release. So maybe they did use the feedback provided. Would have been better if you got an actual reply from Beagle tho. Last I checked we were all human. My post was mostly concerning the head sculpt and the fact that Beagle is a toy company that makes CM's look like Bandai. I think I'm done trying to help both sides. I heard that they were struggling with numbers. Hopefully MegaHouse's lack of a Fluke means more people will buy the Beagles instead.

DarrinG Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 To be getting Ride Armors and Beta Fighters in 2009 in just amazing when you think about it. I'm sure you all have. And I'm extremely grateful that companies like Yamato and Beagle are catering to this segment. People always post complaints and then there are the inevitable slew of counter-posts saying there should be no complaining - we should all just 'count our blessings'. Both posts are OK. Without them there would not be much to talk about. I personally would not allow myself an criticisms if the toys were $30 - $40 bucks. But the higher the price goes the less guilty I feel about being nit-picky . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woll622 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 There has been no official word that megahouse cancelled fuke, but a few other message board members have said they were pretty sure she's not coming out. Because of the comments posted here, I have even put the three I have (stick, ley, and yellow) up on eBay. I decided I'd rather have all 4 beagle ride armors then an incomplete set of megahouse ones.

DarrinG Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 As a Beagle only buyer so far I keep looking at eBay and other places to see how low the MH versions will go. I'm thinking I may buy at $20 each new if they ever reach that point. They look fun and I would not feel guilty about weathering them at that price point. But with all the negative I've heard, anything over $20 seems to be over-paying. & They'll do the Fuke eventually I bet . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey if your interested, I started the bidding at $20 and they end on Saturday. Also, I believe that the Megahouse Fuke will be released.

jenius Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 (edited) Fuke (Foo-Kay) is how the name Houquet (Hoo-Kay) in Mospeada was originally romanized by Mospeada's merchandisers. Many merchandisers today still retain the less than perfect romanization. Houquet is Robotech the New Generation's Rook. There are many mis-romanizations that have come from Mospeada like Ray to Ley and Brough Superior to Blow Superior.

The bikes are exactly the same. The suit not as bad in real life as it looks on the pictures. This is by far the best ride armor/ cyclone ever made.

EXO Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 The whole bike? I'll PM you but like I said I might keep the hip covers. Well, while we're at it... If anyone wants to sell they're Beagle version for cheap PM me too. As for the rider, the cloth is there to maximize articulation. If you take it apart, the upper leg cover slides up and down in order for the bulky lower leg to move as much as it does, especially in ride armor mode. It really is a good design. But like others I didn't like the looseness of the cloth and I especially didnt like that it was red in the leg. Another thing was the cloth that was visible below the crotch armor.. It just didnt look right. Like I said though it's all part of the articulation issue. I modified mine so it'll look exactly the way I want it. I'm going to buy all four and do the same to all of them. I'm so psyched about having these and having them exactly the way I want them. I swear I'll take better pics as soon as I get a better camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
