spanner Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Is this thread for kits only or all Mospeada toys in general? Feel free to move this to where it should belong.. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/61998 I placed my order for one of these.

Slave IV Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 I couldn't resist, preordered one but hope to see it for cheaper elsewhere.
Duymon Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 I am surprised the price didn't break $200 .import stores will def be cheaper. last time bought from bbts was when ozma renewal armor parts were on "clearance" for $90
spanner Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 I've pre ordered with BBTS but I'll still see how much cheaper they pop up elsewhere. You can always cancel your pre order with BBTS at any time without hassle.
frankell05 Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 The older versions of these are 1/10 right? Toynami or the other brand name
spanner Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 I think the Aoshima is 1:15 scale if I'm not mistaken?? Don't quote me on that..

seti88 Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Any listings on the japanese retailers yet?
505thAirborne Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 I'll wait and see what HLJ or Ami Ami will be charging for this. Looks great in both modes!
jenius Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Given the previous teaser, I'd think Japanese retailers will be listing it on 9/29?
seti88 Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 i tot so too, but with bbts having such detailed photo's of it, there might be some leaks somewhere?... Regardless, have pre-ordered with bbts too since its cancel-able.
spanner Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 fingers crossed the Japanese stores list it for less..
no3Ljm Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Just to be safe, I preordered at BBTS as well while waiting for import stores.
General Rasp Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Same, I pre-ordered one at BBTS just in case I can't get one at HLJ. I imagine that the import stores will have it for slightly cheaper since BBTS has to pay for import shipping on top of the figure. Really odd though that they have a listing up already, I wonder if they have a good relationship with Sentinel and that is why the price is fair and the pre-order is up already. The figure looks so good and I hope Sentinel does a good job with the cloth suit and transformation. I heard/read the dino getters weren't great because nothing locked in for transformation. I hope that isn't the case for this and it is rock solid in both modes.

If that were the case I would have bought some from them. I hope it's not a mistake and if so, I hope they still honor the price.
Mommar Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 I went ahead and knocked out a pre-order at BBTS as well.
jenius Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 It's possible that Sentinel made a deal with Toynami to have Toynami distribute it in the states (like Toynami did with the Megahouse ride armors... not like Toynami did with Beagle where they re-badged it). If that is what happened, then Toynami may have given BBTS the details ignorant of Sentinel's plans to make the toy available 9/29. If that's the case, it might also mean that the BBTS price will be very competitive with the overseas shops since they would have a US distributor to deal with rather than an international middle man.
teckno viking Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Well for those of Us International to US ie Europe etc. BBTS I have jumped on with a PO But TBH probably get direct from Japan too as both will alas incur Customs. Plus would it be Bad to have More of these LOL I Think Not and the 15 CM Brave Riders 1/18th (added photos of the 1/18th ones) I have say so too LOL Had not realised till today FIGMA had one in the pipe too. It IS awesome to see Mospeada Love return. Hopefully see a Very impressive 1/12 Line up from Both companies and hey Even more may jump on? INBITS will be needed 1/12 and that could get Revoltech Excited LOL I am hoping we will see more options and indeed hoping as Sentinel have not with their first, that FIGMA will throw us the GALLANT H-90 (would it be the modular version for rifle?). With that added my private commission Build from a friend overe here in the UK who made this a few years back. Still my Pride and Joy

tekering Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 As seen at this year's Wonderfest: Just a picture on posterboard, announcing their intention to produce figures from a wide variety of licensees. Make of that what you will.
teckno viking Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Ahhh so nothing more. Well we can hope. Least Sentinel is here and coming
Boobytrap Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 PO one at BBTS. Their $4 flat shipping is hard to beat. If it ends up being cheaper with shipping from overseas they also have a great cancellation policy.
teckno viking Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Have one on PO with BBTS and shipping is an extra 36. Will see what prices inc shipping we get 29th when hopefully more PO open up from others.
Ignacio Ocamica Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 My estimated shipping at BBTS to South America with EMS is U$S36.
teckno viking Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Just had to dig out the 1/18 Mospeada with all the talk and excitement of the upcoming 1/12 Mospeada. The Battle to Reclaim Earth is Underway!

I was pondering this as well, and it is possible given what happened with Beagle and Megahouse (didn't they shove a sticker on the Megahouse boxes?). The missing piece is that it hasn't shown up on any Robotech promos yet, or their official store. From memory the US price for the Beagle was better than the Japanese price by about 20%, but I don't remember what the exchange rate was back then.
