I still don't have that info but I lucked across the website last night and they have the Andrew Probert original design for the Enterprise C available for pre-order now. https://shop.eaglemoss.com/usa/star-trek-starships/uss-enterprise-ncc-1701-c-probert-concept I can't be sure but I think I may have asked you where you bought your star ships from.. I forget. Had a brain injury remember! That looks fantastic! I just checked out the website and I'm thinking I will chose a few to buy! But where do I display these things!?

Had a brain injury remember! That looks fantastic! I just checked out the website and I'm thinking I will chose a few to buy! But where do I display these things!? Was it that or did you ask me how I find out about the new/upcoming releases? That's just a combination of e-mail updates for pre-orders at BigBadToyStore and complete dumb-ass luck, like the fact I just checked the Eaglemoss website the other day and saw the pre-order for the Ent-C Prototype was up. The Prototype C there I had to order directly from Eaglemoss themselves, I haven't seen it available anywhere else. It's on the way as of today. Other's I'll order from BigBadToyStore though, like the pre-order I have for the Phase 2 Enterprise, which I honestly haven't seen anywhere else actually. I'm just waiting on BBTS to ship it in the back half of the month. And the USS Phoenix is already in the mail. You do have to watch out for Eaglemoss though, they have horrific QC issues sometimes. You will have things arrive that are broken or miss-aligned. If you order direct from them they'll replace it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolicon Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Oh man misaligned warp nacelles are the one thing that really annoys me. I had to fix my Reliant by breaking a nacelle off and reattaching it at the correct alignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Yeah, I'm worried about the Phase 2 Ent not having aligned nacelles. Though I have noticed they don't always get the saucer sections straight sometimes either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they'd brought it back for the premium versions. So, the picture on the box shows Max & Miria's names on the canopy frame. Wait a second. That doesn't make sense. Isn't this just a trainer VF that was pressed into service as an impromptu wedding vehicle? Max already has a VF-1 assigned to him and Miria was an enemy combatant until, like, an hour before the wedding? And it's fully armed for combat in the middle of a wedding ceremony?! The kinds of trivial questions that come to me while I'm in the shower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sildani Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Probably took the ground crew no time at all to stencil the names on the canopy sill. Ordered the Probert Enterprise-C.

Slave IV Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Just opened and went through the features and transformation for MP-39 Sunstreaker. Oh man is it good! Incredible engineering and so many Masterpiece moments. I haven't cared much for Transformers in a while but this one is really good. I've had Badcube Sunstreaker since it came out and never bothered transforming it. After experiencing the MP, I don't think I'll ever transform the BC version now. Sorry, no time/energy for pics yet but highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, no time/energy for pics yet but highly recommended. Word of caution on MP-39, Takara used a stupid, piss poor joint for one section of the backpack that is breaking on a lot of people, I checked mine out and I have some healthy stress marks after just a few transformations. The backpack with all the engine kibble must rotate around 180 in order to lay clean on Sunny's back, that black joint that feels notched as you rotate all the backpack nonsense around is VERY fragile, it is also notched, so it catches some resistance as you rotate it. I recommend not transforming him often, or really babying that whole backpack section when you have to rotate it around to complete his bot transformation. We'll see if those stupid long life stickers they put on their stuff now holds true when people have Sunny in their collections for a while and are several transformations in.

I normally would read every post and watch every review for the thing before I even opened it but again, I care so little about TFs these days, I haven't bothered checking anything before I opened this one. I noticed that backpack swivel when I was transforming it and luckily, it was tight and blocked by kibble so I had to examine closely before I could turn it. In doing so, I was very careful and able to move everything out of the way first so the actual rotation went smoothly for me. I'll definitely keep an eye on it. Thanks!

Actually Maz did do a little rundown on MP Sunny and hopefully that you caught it.. I'm spending more time here for Macross ,TFs and other related items on the other one.

It's a great MP Galvatron, (I don't care too much about space cannon mode) It's been out for a year and I still keep taking it from the shelf.

I want both modes to look good...kinda the point of Transformers to me. I do understand it's a well made toy, I just don't like the aesthetics. Same goes for the DX9 one and all the Jazz options so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stampeed Valkyrie Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Lucky #13 or should I say unlucky ride over here #13 Got my Glaug, the seller didn't pack it well and the box got dinged around. Since I am not gonna stare at it in a box I am not too concerned. The size comparison between this and a VF-1 is pretty intimidating.. the Regults even manage to make the VF-1 look small and that is not something easily noticed in the TV series. If this scale is accurate I have new respect for Hikaru during his fight @ the Mars Base.. Khamjin would have popped out and I would have been like.... crap.

Fair enough There's a chance X-transbots releases their version or Takara steps into the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
