Welp!

Turns out the b2five can move and open the head on the Snapping Turtle.  It was just different from the way the Actic-Gear implemented it, i.e. the head connection is actually a swivel-hinge, instead of the head-slider in the Actic Gear.

It was just really latched tight yesterday that I thought it was damn unmovable fused static in place, but just really needed some little wiggle.

So, I'm more glad now than yesterday.

I really gotta commend the B2Five team for this simple but effective innovation!

Wooo hooo!!!

:D

 

edit:

Btw, the instruction-paper that came with this toy does not mention this particular feature and process at all.

:unknw:

I really like how it looks but like I said above, I’ll wait for the upcoming ps version in a few months. Then there’s gonna be a pilot figure, full interior and downform parts. 

Wave really needs to quit doing this basic release, then six months later a rerelease with all the goodies.

Interesting.

This item's 15.9cm/6.2" height is about:

  • just a bit under half of the 33.5cm of their original 1/12 Scopedog product
  • shorter than the legendray 1/18 Takara DMZ-04 that's about 27cm.
  • a bit shorter than the Bandai 1/20 Scopedog (7.5")
  • about as close to a Wave 1/24 Scopedog (6.5")

It does look quite nicely detailed with opening cockpit and pilot.

No mention of metal/diecast content,  "Zinc alloy diecast inner-frame", but I still hope the plastic is as sturdy as the old 35Max toys.

Nice! It does mention zinc alloy diecast for internal frame. :good:

Is this the first time the HMR Scopedog being shown?

For a Scopedog? Not really.

They showed the MarshyDog variant back in 2020:  https://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/38846-votoms/?do=findComment&comment=1555313

However, this is the first time they show the RSC variant.

As such, seems like the same height-size as the HM-R Xabungle bots.

Anyone have experience tightening the joints on the Yamato 1/12 Scopedogs?  The hip ball joints in particular on my Turbo Custom have gotten very loose and I believe it is the rubber "weeping" and not providing any friction.  The wheels are doing the same thing (it's like they have a slight oily coating) although the rubber doesn't actually appear to be decaying as such.  Was planning on giving all the rubber bits a wipedown with some isopropyl alcohol but not quite sure if this will make things better or worse.

Thanks.
