The green color looks way off. And they look nothing like the pictures that are showen on this thread.

 

Megahouse 1/15 Ride Armor

Check the video of the transformation plus some in-package pics.

Were they parts-formers like that in the show too? I don't remember. Still looks cool.

 

its hard to decide which one to get.

 

I don't think they're meant to be parts formers to the extent that the MH version is. Especially not for the poor decapitated riders  . I think the arm-guards are the only parts that are supposed to come off.

I'll be interested to see the CM's version and see how much of it gets to stay attached...

 

Well I have the CM's on pre-order but now that I saw the video and the pics of MH version, I might get these also. They look cool and the detachment of the parts doesn't bother me. 

 

Beautiful. I can't wait to get em.

 

Both. 

 

Cool for the transformation. I'll pick one up, but I'll pass on the countless variants that'll surely be coming.

 

Whoa, A3U just did a website re-vamp and the pre-order for the Cm cyclones are GONE!! and no mention of them anywhere now either.... whatup??

 

I saw a3u added a bunch of stuff, didn't think they were taking things down.

Might be related to them moving the store or something. But I just ordered my megahouse cyclone from hlj anyway, which also has the cm ones.

I really don't see the appeal of the cm version. Sure, there's some die-cast(easy enough to spot), but it also seems to be missing a lot of details here and there(the chest being the most obvious).

And as far as toynami is concerned... seems like they can't get a vf-1 valk right(qc problems, breakage), seen plenty of complaints about voltron(same thing again). I can tf mp megs in my sleep, and no toruble with yamato valks fairly easy; a lot of people run into problems with those, because some piece are fragile during transformation. But it's not the same as toynami's joints getting loose while standing still, pieces cracking when bending a knee, landing gear not being able to support the figure, etc etc etc.

 

Cool. Looks pretty good. Some part swapping, but I kind of expected that. Having to decapitate the poor guy is a little creepy, though. Heh. Maybe I'll need to pick one up...

 

Thanks to Graham (from Macrossworld) for the latest scans.

Looks pretty much perfect to me. I'm sure most people will prefer MegaHouse's though.

 

I cant wait to get these.  

Thanks for the pic links Eriku.

 

Thanks for the link eriku.

After seeing the pictures I'm definitely sticking with the MegaHouse's.

 

Another new gallery for the CM's is online.

Any idea on the release date for the megahouse version?

 

A3U has the magahouse pre-order back up, and i do think i prefere this version, and it's price, so i put an order in for scott version. the scale f the bike kind of throws me off, but it will be displayed in body armor mode on my shelf anyway.
