Roy Focker Posted May 19, 2017 Posted May 19, 2017 Mine's preordered with Ami Ami. Spartan is listed as in stock but no progress yet.
mechaninac Posted May 19, 2017 Posted May 19, 2017 I got the payment request for my Spartan preorder with HLJ today; paid for it, and it's now sitting in my PW... to be shipped with my DX VF-31F and 1/1000 Andromeda kit.

I will keep the Regult my gf got me and the Monster cos its the coolest thing in the HM-R line but that's it. I did however pre-order the HM-R VF-1S 35th anniversary for my son who likes the color scheme!

Dont back off on us bro! its no big deal really. I had only purchased one item from the line being the HWR Monster (Regult I received as a gift) and never really had much intention to get any others with the exception of the Spartan. But even that I lost interest in.. My primary focus with Macross is the 1:60 line of toys which is really where my heart (and wallet) is so I figure there is no point picking up bits and pieces of a different scale line that I don't want to collect in their entirety. The only reason I even have any 1:48's is pretty much b'cos I stumbled across them in a trade deal otherwise I would most likely never have got any..
CRYO Posted May 20, 2017 Posted May 20, 2017 Got my spartan in hand, very impressed, this time it is really hi-metal, most stressed joins are metal joints, the outsole also in metal, the canon and missile pods have cover linked sliding mechanism, and it is highly poseable Looking forward for the tomahawk and defender.

sh9000 Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 If they didn't make the max limit of 1 per household I'd buy 3 more Monsters.

The missile effects look good. Yep Yamato never released a Phalanx. I still like the size of all of the HMR figures to each other. Too bad the top hatch of the Spartan can't be opened to cram a pilot in there. HMR Monsters at amazon.jp for 50% off? Damn I'm tempted.
tekering Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 2 minutes ago, sh9000 said: I still like the size of all of the HMR figures to each other. Well, the Spartan is definitely off. According to Perfect Memory, Spartans and Tomahawks are both about 11.3 meters to the top of the shoulders, as this line art indicates: The HMR Spartan stands 14.3cm to the top of the shoulders, which is a good three centimetres bigger than it should be. Note if we apply the same baseline to the HMR line, the Valkyries and Battlepods are consistent... ...but the vintage Imai Tomahawk's definitely too small, and the HMR Spartan's clearly too large.
