I'd take a KO of that Powerglide  

 

The flower pot and red riding hood are awesome.

 

 Neat-O. I'd take all of those. 

 

Damn!

I need this (Nano Predaking) for my wst shelf...but ya gonna have to pass on it for that price.

 

Takara has been making kits since forever. I kow they did Mashin Eiyuuden Wataru kits way back in the 90s not sure about earlier. Is the Grand Convoy set really that bad?

 

It's okay when judged while pretending to be ignorant of companies like Bandai or Kotobukiya existing. It's a partformer without any useful articulation (it's knees bend, but the upper leg can't bend and stay in place), it doesn't have rolling wheels, there are gates put in places that leave horrible scars on the parts when trimmed, no matter how carefully you do it (especially chrome parts), the stickers don't stay in place...

If you've never built a kit from a company like Bandai or Kotobukiya, sure, it's good. I'd really compare it more to the candy toy kits, even though it's not one. I'm a convoy/optimus collector though, so I like it despite it's problems.

 

Sounds like their earlier kits. I'd have thought they'd have learned by now  .

 

Say hello to my little friend!

Man, thats tiny.

 

I just wanted to point out, that this is true for cons in Japan. This is the only time(at major conventions) in japan you can sell a self-created work of otherwise copyrighted or trademarked work that's not your own original property. That's why it's legal. Not because any company has granted it for solely one day. So copyright approved is a slight misnomer, yet still accurate. I do really want to see what that arcee looks like though.

 

More Predaking goodness. Me want!

 

Meh. it's cool and all but I still havent got my own Predaking.  
possibly by March 2011...sigh.

 

HAHAHAHAHA!

Kinda makes me wish that they guys that made this:

Would make a WST styled Predaking. They really do make some nice clean molds!

 

That would make a great display piece next to Fort/Grand/Brave Max.

 

The little King looks pretty great, but why would I ever need one? Unless you're a completionist and need every scaled version of a character available, I don't see the point.

But I totally see the reason for the steep pricing, seeing as they're going to sell about 9 of these. But those 9 guys will probably adore their little King like there's no tomorrow, as they should.

 

Que the $500 crazydevy upgrade

 

How does one order a wst predaking kit? I don't live in Japan and won't be attending the wonder festival. Anybody know of any international reseller sites?

 

if anyone is going i would love to have one of the powerglide toys and would be willing to pay a little for it so if anyone is going to the show and can secure one for me let me know and we will talk very cool stuff

 

Have these guys officially canned the Ironhide, or is he still coming out?

 

I remember that, wasn't it a headmaster or something? Whatever it was, it looked pretty nice, and really cartoon accurate.
