Note: This is what I read and understand so far - Zeta is reformat of Toyworld, due to the fact that some of the former employees of Toyworld (from the Design department) left due to the fact that the molds of Coolsville and (the upcoming?) Bruticus was used by Toyworld and didn't pay them for the rights. These employees found out and decided to leave, took the molds of Coolsville and Bruticus with them, formed their own company (now named Zeta). Zeta is doing another run of Coolsville (with tweeks from the former mold) later on under the brand Zeta-EX (?), ETA unsure. Leia is their take on a MP version of Arcee and scales in-line with FT's Kup and MP-09 (I think that pics with Leia and Hot Rod might be in the MP-28 thread). Pic taken directly from the boards on page 59, post #1180 by member GR1ML0CK (I think that he replaced the head with the Wei Jang one). Daimchoc has posted a vid of the Metallic version of her (post #1086) Thanks for this @borgified. Really appreciate it. But based on this pic for me she's kind of too small for MP-09 Hot Rodimus. And looking at the pic below, she's kind of too tall for the recent MP-28 Hot Rod. 14 hours ago, Bahamutzyro said: Some more shots of toy world Leia. She is in scale with the masterpiece line.

I think you are refering to the old Daca Toys Skyfire that isn't the best toy ever. The one pictured, I'm pretty sure is the Fans Toys, which probably isn't the best toy ever either but should be a hell of a lot better than the one you were thinking of.

Yeah as Slave IV said, you're thinking of the old Daca Toys Chronos, which was garbage, and was widely panned as one of the worst figures ever made. Pictured above is indeed FansToys Phoenix/MP Skyfire, which is hands down one of their nicest figures, and easily one of the best MP figures ever made, official or third party.

I told myself never again with them over and over, then I bought Force Awakens Rey and her arm fall off, and her face wasn't printed on straight. It's good to see they are still trying I guess? If it didn't bust out of the box that's an improvement for them overall. I heard Homecoming Spidey was nice, but I love Figuarts Homecoming Spidey so I had no reason to bother with the Mafex.

derex3592 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 (edited) Eaglemoss Shuttlecraft Type 11 from Enterprise E came in today... nice little ship. No obvious QC issues aside from one little black mark that looks like a phaser blast on the bottom side of the cockpit... oh well..battle damage!

Mp-28 is based really on hot rod and the old rodimus should be larger. She works pretty well. I did order the fanstoys as well so I’ll see how that one is. as far as the sky fire, he is one of the best 3rd party mp out there. Fans toys is a better quality figure vs most others. I do like dx9 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don’t think it’s the worst. They already re-engineered recent DX releases so it’s very hard to compare with the old ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuNDuK Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 (edited) Sorry, I meant another thing. I mean 25a is really good model and i'm really enjoyed it(it's really much better then my 29 ozma). And i hope next 31a model, which i will buy, will be same good enough at least Edited January 27, 2018 by SuNDuK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolicon Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Received my concept Enterprise-C. Only half the darkened windows on the saucer underside are painted. Strangely enough, both halves have the same number of windows, but one half has all of them with "lights on". Did any of you guys get a replacement unit yet?

spanner Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) Pre-ordered this a while back at amiami and it just arrived. AUTOart Lexus LC500. Being resin (or composite as they call it) instead of diecast so it's a little lighter in weight but it's so beautifully built and the attention to detail is fantastic! The paintwork is just gorgeous! Very impressed and pleased with this purchase! And to think on several occasions I nearly cancelled this order! So glad I didn't!

Stampeed Valkyrie Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Located a Voltron Classic Black Lion locally @ Target these things are apparently sorta hard to locate right now, one of the employees told me someone came in and bought up most of what was put out. Scalpers? I just want 1 complete set... lol And the Mailman was busy today! BBTS Finally delivered my KC Hikaru TV Super 1S.. need to find a Fokker 1S now.. grr. And my Hi-Metal R collection has finally caught up! Fokker DYRL Strike, Hikkaru DYRL Strike (duplicate), CF-1A (#3), and Regult (duplicate).
