    Was not expecting a customizable battle oven. The selection of decals is a nice touch. I don't think we've seen all those unit symbols before.

    Apologies if this has been confirmed before, but do the Frost Light variants (like the green one that just came out) combine with the wolves and tanks (ie, do they have all the same connectors)? I realize in universe canon they probably aren't supposed to but I'm tempted by the wolves and I'm not sure if they'll reissue Frost Light anytime soon.

    I don't believe the green one can use the chest armor like Frost Light, but it looks like he can use the wolves, but I'm not 100%

    Damn I picked up a few of the small dudes but forgot this existed for like a year and I made the mistake of wandering into this thread. Where do I go to find Frostlight and his armor bros or a bunch of the backlog in stock? BBTS has some of them.

    I'd recommend BBTS and their preorders for what you can. I have no idea where you'd snag a Frostlight at this stage. But if you're just looking for the mold to play around with, you may try the mountain redeco. No, you don't get berserk armor compatibility, but he looks good on his own.

    I'm tapping out of collecting these to focus on Diaclone.
    Put everything I've brought for this line on eBay last night:

    Thanks. I saw a pic of him using one of the wolves but it didn't seem like he had the same arm connector so I wasn't sure if someone had Frostlight and just swapped it or if he was compatible out of the box.

    So the ballista turns into a robot? Neat! Either that, or the ballista acts as a crossbow for the new bot
    Edit: nvrmind, just a crossbow. Wonder what the main bot transforms into, or if it even transforms at all

    There a treads on the sides of the shins so it's safe to say it transforms. We just dont know into what yet.

    I should add we already saw this bot in the background of one promo image:
    ARC-18秘銀雄鷹軍團 聖劍士小隊_low.jpg

    Looks like it combines with something else, maybe that rolling castle they've also showed.

    There's a repaint?

    I completely forgot about this line and though I have no interest in 99% of the releases, I regret not picking up Frostlight. Looked up the mountain redeco. Though I usually like green transforming robots, but this time I absolutely prefer the look of the original. But that seems not a likely (read: affordable) option anymore.

    Yeah, it does seem to combine with some sort of fort. WOnder if it's meant to be their counterpart to the ymirus, or if it's more like the turtle and the wolf as some sort of smaller mech.

    I suppose what I'm really asking is will it fit into the hundred price point or around the 80 price point

    Im willing to bet its closer to ymirus with the Castle being similar to the berserker armor

    Price point for the mech itself should be close to ymirus as well. We dont have a size comparison but the crossbow has a seat at the back for one of the minifigures so we can guess at its height and its probably around ymirus.

    Probably, but I also think it depends on transformation, the turtle looks rather large but it's priced around the wolf price. If it's more simplistic, I could see it going for 80 to 90.

    I was thinking instead of being a single unit like ymirus, it's more like a knight as in there's multiple. In other words, I was assuming the plan is to army build them at slightly cheaper prices. That's just a theory of course. It just doesn't strike me as complicated as ymiru. Maybe it's cause it's still in gray prototype stage so I'm bring fooled

    Had payment requests from Gundamnit/ShowZ for the next Mithril 3 pack and the Battle Oven so they're out very soon.
