Toynami 30th Anniversary Voltron

[Tetsuwan Convoy]

I can understand no interest in TF 3rd party - at least officially there is still lots of choice. But here we're talking about WEP, who has done zilch for Voltron since it's heyday pretty much. They're battling with Harmony Gold for worst toy related company as far as i'm concerned, so stuff em!

Yeah, thats what I was thinking after reading through the robot japan thread. Some interesting info there.

My iron resolve is weakening....

Perfect solution - you buy my Official Toynami Voltron, i buy the Mad Toys one with less guilt, everybody wins! I'll even let you see the Mad Toys one when ur back in Aus! What a deal!

[drifand]

Mad toys man, you be mad not to go mad.
Better figure or toy will win for me.

So, say he's an unofficial golion then


Aargh, It matters to me. Even though MW V Voltron was a 3rd party thingo, it was sorta legit merch. The story is what I love about it.

This one is just plain 3rd party...... No story.... So torn. Looks da shizz though.

Fair enough! Haha.

to be fair we do buy 3rd party transformers so what's the difference with this?

I would question about the entire macross fiasco again and ask who do you really support? Robotech or Macross

[VGMStudios]

Well macross of course, but do YOU really think Bandai Japan will really make one and upset everyone else and have a law suit above thier heads for one toy?

Wow, that is a great deal... Until I saw a Toynami one in the video review.

I've avoided 3rd party TFs on a moral (and wallet) basis, to me if it it isn't licensed it isn't a TF. Must admit though, the 3rd party stuff I have (Mostly FP) is very nice.

This legal limbo with Voltron is making more and more inclined to go to the effort of getting one.

Haha bandai only does care for the following
1. Gundam
2. Power rangers
3. Kamen riders
4,macross
All the rest are just side projects

IMO their soc range have been poor choices other than ggg lately.

[VGMStudios]

Hey I agree with the both of you.
Its really to bad. Its the fans who suffer in the end.

Well I couldn't pass this up and preordered one. That review video along with my excitement pushed me over the edge haha. So much better than the collectors edition.

[Tetsuwan Convoy]

I think I will order one tonight. Get me some of those twin blades action.

So much better than the collectors edition.

OH god yeah, it just looks embarrassing when he shakes it around in the video.

Oh and on that front, the guy kind of bags the MW V Voltron, but Taking into account that V Voltron is made of 15 parts, as opposed to L V's 5, I think it's still a pretty good effort.
