    Is that Sentinel Rom? I only have the SoC, I think its around the same size, looks pretty good with Rod Drill.

    If you go by how they were depicted in the Revenge of Cronus anime, these figures do fit in with 1/18 scale stuff.

    You can still preorder Rod Drill on TFSource for $49.99, arrival April 2021:
    https://tfsource.com/machine-robo/rod-drill/

    The only catch is that you are ordering from Satan TFsource.

    I have Rod Drill and Battle Robo (Tank) pre-ordered with them. I’m not 100% confident if they will get fulfilled.

    I would love to get Blue Jet, but the price to import into Canada is prohibitive and not justifiable. Robot Toybase postage costs close to $40 USD to ship. That's the cost of the figure itself. BBTS costs at cheapest $15 USD. But also need to factor in additional Customs charge. Blue Jet came out at the worst possible time to me. LOL

    Haha! Yes :)  What I meant was I dont know how much more I would be buying from TCP in the immediate future to take advantage of free shipping.

    :lol 

    No you are not - I've often looked at my Quantron set and thought about the Go-Bots/Machine Robo repaint potential. :)

    Sonic Drill was the worse figure Maketoys ever made.

    ToyDojo got Blue Jet in stock and shipped mine today.

    I'm still not going to believe this isn't some elaborate internet prank until it's actually in my hands. Even then....I dunno...might me some kind of AR projection or something.

    Augmented Reality. You know like that thing where you take a picture or video on your phone, and it uses the real picture, but adds in a character or something so it looks like it's "real" too.
