There you have it. Waiting on money to start flowing better before I commit. I want at least two different sets.

To answer your question, it was moved because Staff wanted to wait until a more reliable system of ordering (other than pming a member) came to light.

Hence why I editted the link to remove it. Just be patient guys, i'm sure the News Crew will sort something out so you can get the good info.

Not to be flippant but that isn't how Maiden Japan operates. They probably should have a less sketchy system in place, they don't though. I've yet to hear about them ripping anyone off previously.

I received my set of the Junkion pieces (everything but a new head) but that's because I was in the first dozen to order it. It is a great upgrade. But Maiden Japan is one person working alone, not a company. Sculpted, molded, cast and hand painted and shipped by one person. This isn't a 3rd Party Upgrade, it's a detailed and well made custom.

Please don't delete this. I'm only trying to offer an explanation.

Okay, I hope these pics aren't too bad. My camera needs batteries so I used my phone. Since they're hand painted you have some color options. I got the ax (red), knee/shoulder spikes (gray), chest (red) and the wheel shield. They are made of cast resin, not plastic and the paint is smooth and even. I have them on the United Wreck-Gar riding the RTS one. The shoulder and knee spikes will be put on Scrapheap and the possible Hasbro Junkion when I get them to make them asymmetrical.

Epic Zod! Thanks ! Does the set feel durable? Does everything attach firmly enough? Ugggh I want this set bad..I hope this somehow pops up somewhere mainstream..

It feels durable enough. Not play tough but it's plenty strong for display purposes. The chest fits like a dream and the ax slides nicely in to the hand. The knee pads are left/right specific and the should takes a second to look at it before you put it on the first time. The shield kicks all sorts of ass. If you can get on the list, I can't recommend it enough.
