Mecha Mad and Figure Fixation V 2.0

[SUMIRE]

Just got this to add to my ever growing Star Wars Collection. Needless to say the import tax is a KILLER!

Love it. Two of my favourite things in one - Boba Fett on a stack of pancakes.

Looks very cool. Is it actually Boba Fett or an EU character based in him? I don't recognise the markings on his helmet, some of his clothy clothes or the huge gun.

It is from the Mythos collection. There is some more info here

Loving the Mythos Boba Feet Sumire.

I really want to the Mythos Darth Maul but I swore I wouldn't start on Star Wars stuff again.

Although the upcoming General Grievous piece might make me change my mind he's looking awesome.

Yeah they look great as well. It is a slippery slope lol, hard to stop when you start ...they do look nice though!

I've seen on ebay and BBTS some 3rd party cassetticons for MP Soundwave, there's a double pack which I recognise which two characters they're supposed to be but the moulds don't look too accurate and 2 others, the most common being a rhino and the other being kind of a lion but I can't see anything on those characters. Are these just of original characters made up or obscure ones tied to Soundwave in comics etc? How likely is it Takara will make more tapes or is the current 5 the only ones likely to be official?

Blaster had a cassette that was a rhino didn't he? It was an autobot.

Yep he also had a Lion (steel Jaw)
He also had 2 robots (Eject & Rewind)

I'm not too sure on how likely it is we will see the rest of the Decepticon cassettes (Slugfest, Overkill, Beastbox, Squawktalk) as they might be just a little too obscure & I think the tooling will be mad for them (especially Beast & Squak as they are combiners as well)
However I would be inclined to say that we will probably see Ratbat.
I'm expecting he'll be repackaged with the Black Soundwave repaint which is most likely going to happen at some point.
Ratbat was a big part of the later series & is a fan favourite so it would make sense for Takara to at least do him.

Congratuwelldone buddy! Amazing piece just amazing. Everyone doubted that SS could pull off the detail they were showing on the Mythos line especially with Obi and Fett and man they pulled it off perfectly!

I think Vader is gonna be amazing too.

They confirmed they are working on the next 5 for the line too, can't wait to see whats next!

[Neon Ignition]

Ah, I reckon I'll leave the other tapes then. Looking them up they don't seem to high end either. It'd be good if the KO TF Masterpieces branched out into the addition variants Takara haven't done though, doesn't seem to be happening however.

The third party Bumblebee is getting a Goldbug variant





Looks alright, fairly subtle. Was never a Goldbug fan though, Bumblebee owns.

Getting closer to release now, can't wait.

Looks ok but like you I was never a Goldbug fan...unlike you though I also think Bumblebee blows.
Always had a dislike of him even back when I was a kid...he just always annoyed me.
I'll have him in the MP display but only because as ****e as he is no true Autobot display is complete without him.

Getting closer to release now, can't wait.

Holy freaking feck, that Hulk is massive & utterly awesome, one of the best looking renditions I've seen.
Look forward to your in hand pic's
