Woah! Has it really been a year since we got anything on this? I'm glad they're going ahead with it. I really would like to get the set for Bludgeon. That rifle and the cannon are pretty boss, and the price isn't too bad for what you're getting. Makes Dr. Wu look like a right greedy git.

Pray tell what you could possibly find wrong -this- time, X?

I see a Roman Gladiator helmet with feathers sticking out of it, an annoying battle damaged eye, and a huge shoulder cannon thats sure to make him fall off the shelf and take a few cons with him.

If you took this kind of approach for all your "I don't like it!" posts, you'd have far less people looking at you like a spoiled brat.

So let me see if I understand your logic...

* I flat out dont like the set
* I dont want to spend the money I earned all by myself on something I dont like
* I explain in my second post what I dont like about the set for those who require a reason

If those are the factors you use to define a "spoiled brat" then Ill be one all day. But does that mean you are playing the "mother" role on here ? "X if you dont have anything nice to say, keep your comments to yourself" !!!

Hey if you want your Bludgon to look like it came out of the movie Troy, go buy it. Just dont let your feelings get hurt if people laugh ast your purchase. Not trying to be rude, just being 100% percent real.

X I think you may have misinterpreted NOS's post, NOS was pointing out that if you explained why you don't like things more often (as you have here) people may not always be so detrimental toward you, however you have taken it the wrong way and immediately gone on the defensive therefore justifying peoples initial perception of you.

Pre-ordered the Samurai set without hesitation.

Just when my BBTS pre-order list was starting to thin out. #-o

Woah - I was totally caught by surprise; this is the first time I'm seeing all of this.

The beauty of the Headrobots Blood kit was how well it blended in. The aesthetics were simple (though not simplistic), well thought out, and matched nicely with the figure. I'm not liking these for the opposite reason. They just seem overwrought and busy.

Also, why does Banzaitron get no love? They went through the trouble of making kits for limited figs like Botcon Overlord and GDO Megatron, and they couldn't get their act together for a mass release like HFTD Banzaitron?

I miss Headrobots.

I forgot about this... and will continue to forget about it, as these simply don't do enough for their price for me to be bothered.

That's pretty funny, people were complaining about how Headrobots plastics not matching

I'm really looking forward to the overlord though that damn botcon overlords head needs to come off!

There is nothing in the PA-01 set that would not work for Banzaitron.

You could probably get away with the head options in the PA-02 set as well.

I could probably get away with it, but I don't think either would look great with him. What I'm really looking for is a nice new head that actually homages G1 Banzaitron.

I continue to miss Headrobots. This is all I really want:

With a better Overlord coming out, and myself already having Headrobot's Bludgeon kit, the only one I've preordered is G2 Megatron's accessories - which should be pretty rad!

I only ordered the Megatron kit. The Bludgeon one looks WAY too busy. yeah, Head Robots is missed by me as well. Their kit was nigh-perfect!

I get that the Pretenders were monstrous, but that face just doesn't gel with the rest of ROTF Bludgeon's aesthetics, IMHO.

I wish Perfect Effect would have done a kit for Banzaitron instead. Actually, I just wish Headrobots had released their upgrade before folding.

>:oP

Looks fantastic to me

Bludgeon is the only movie figure i've never taken off display and i'm more than happy with the HR kit but this one hits my sweet spot even the BFG .

PA-03 Master Weapon Set (the overlord head one) It's processing at BBTS!!

And I just shipped last week. blahh

EDIT: although come to think of it there is probably no way BBTS will ship anything this whole weekend since they're at Botcon.

They aren't a 1-man operation, so I'm sure business will run as usual. I got the arrival e-mail for Scoria yesterday and it went out for shipping today. Breathe easy, you're time will come to upgrade your tank.

I've been waiting for this set for long. As soon as it was available yesterday, I shipped my POL so I can get my hands on MMC's Leo (Razorclaw). :grin:

Got an update today saying it is shipped. So yeah, somebody is working there.

I sent a question to their customer service yesterday and got a response today. They're definitely still there, but when you get the automated message that says your inquiry was received, it asks you to be patient with delays due to Botcon. It's probably a skeleton crew over there.

But I'm sure it helps that a good chunk of their regular customers are at Botcon, too...
