Is anyone else following this soon to be line?
Ive read some of the online comics and been keeping a close eye on all the updates and can't wait to see some prices and release dates.

If I knew how to post picks I would have.

Reminds me a lot of SPT Layzner and FASA's Mechwarrior. Hope they succeed.

I was all over Armarauders a couple of years ago when it was first announced by Don Figueroa. After months of little news and updates, I lost track of it.

However, I read recently on the Armaraduers Facebook account that there is plans for releasing the Bellerophon in the near future. It will be loaded with accessories and supposedly have a good amount of metal in the toy(I've seen metal in the shoulders, feet, ankles, pelvis, and abdomen of a test shot). It is stated that the price will be around $200USD. Quite hefty but if the production model of the toy matches the highly articulated and engineered prototypes, I could see it being snatched up by high end toy collectors.

I have lost faith in the project jears ago. Yeah, sure the Facebook page says the line will be released soon, but then again that's what the website they don't update said five years ago.

I haven't lost faith, though I didn't have faith in the first place. I thought and still think the Armarauders toy concept is a good one for high end toy collectors but it has taken a very long time for this project to get to where it is and it's not even finished. As far as I'm concerned, it's basically like vaporware until production units get into the hands of customers.

The thing is, back when they announced this the first time they showed off that amazing prototype, now years after they are still showing that very same prototype, no others figures, no nothing, not even colour tests or anything.

All they do is say how they'll be available soon and that they're pretty much starting production, and that they'll have all these awesome different figures out, but we never see those figures, or anything. Only the comic and that one prototype.

Hell, the last announcement I read of them was that the toy line will be out at the end of the year, that year being 2013.

So I will believe that this will actually be a thing once a company like BBTS shows announces that they've received their first shipment.
