Lil ol me 'get out'? You might be missing all my sarcasm, such as hiding a giant destroys monster with shadow tech and so on.

I'm a Mospeada fan through and through, as you can tell by my using Legioss instead of RT terminology above.

But you will notice that this thread often contrasts the Toynami offerings against the true Japanese counterparts. I think most Mospeada fans are at least mildly interested in new releases, even if they're called Betas instead of Treads...

I saw your sarcasm and was playing along...sorry, I thought you got that.

I should put "You don't mean me do you?" from the first ep of RB!

Anyway - I'm torn on the Shadow Beta. I think I too will wait until it goes on deep sale.

If they were smart they were make very few to spur more orders up front.

Does anyone have a side view of the Legioss in Soldier and how the cockpit re-configs?

Where does the canopy glass go? Or is this just anime magic...

Hard to believe Toynami is still producing Robotech stuff. They seem to have squandered so many opportunities to repair their reputation.

Add to that, their MPC Voltron Base with sound that's been on pre-order forever has finally been officially cancelled. Instances like that will keep collectors' expectations dismal and low.

Maybe this thread needs scans of the mecha from the Palladium RPG books.

I thought they were still trying to do that with the Robotech plushies that were revealed at Comic-Con.

Not my kit - but I bet I could get you one of the 1/72s for about $275

I'm more after the 1/48 scale Gosu, Scouts and Enforcers from CurioCraft...

That's out of my budget, for a 1/72 anyway. :(

Do you have a link/pic for the 1/48 kits? (At one point I was contemplating making my own...)

but if all u have is a shadow fighter like Benson13, wait for the shadow beta which should be out before the end of the year. unless toynami amd HG are screwing with us again...

I read about it but I have zero faith. On top of that I'm not willing to pay the $160 MSRP when I can pick up an Alpha/Beta set for less than that. Thanks for the heads up though, I'm more than prepared for the screwing.

Wow... DarrinG, Where did you get that model, and who do I have to bribe to get one? (as in, do you have a link to a seller?)

Became a Fan of Mospeada when I was in college, and have never been able to get over the fact that they were so poorly supported by any of the toy or model companies. I'd love to own something like that.

It's an absolute crime that Toynami didn't make those Jupiter/Mars Base emblems and number stickers bigger for the wings.

Bigger emblems and numbers really make the Beta's wings stand out so much more.
