Epic Heroes.com have updated many of their their Galaxy Force toy listings with images of previously unseen figures!
First up, fans of Armada Red Alert will be pleased a familiar face in the form of
Fastaid, who is set to be a deluxe sized figure. Next, we have another vehicle based Cybertron, this time it's the basic-sized
Skids. We round off the Cybertrons with another basic, the (possibly mis-translated)
Autoautolander.
New in the Destron corner is the basic-sized
Gasuketo, followed by the deluxe techno-beast stylings of
Dino Shout.
To finish things up, we have the mysterious 'GX-01'
Sidewawes, who's allegiance is still unclear.

For some time, it has been known that the 19th Robot Masters release would be a re-release of one of the Laser Cycle molds. A few weeks ago, the name
Road Pig was confirmed, and a Japanese hobby magazine published
this image (the figure on the right), showing the colour scheme of the figure, Now, Hobby-Link Japan have posted a listing stating that RM-19 will be called
Double Face (Armada Sideways name in Micron Legend), which includes a picture featuring an Armada Sideways style paint scheme! You can view the listing
here.

figures! (which are Han Solo - 'out of carbonite / sleeping' - and an Ewok
repaint) The Gentle Giant brand Star Wars Bust-Ups series 1 have just
arrived. These busts are about 2 - 3 inches tall and are surprisingly
detailed for their small size - available in boxes of 24.
JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA: The set of 5 JLA figures from DC Direct is
available for $59.99. The set includs: Green Lantern, Superman, Wonder
Woman, The Flash and Aquaman. Many other DC and Marvel figures are also

figures we did not previously carry. These figures include: Space
Godzilla, Gaigan, Destroyer, Kingidora & Mecah Kingidora. The new 2005
figures have even better detail and painting than previous releases, but
they all are very fun and fairly inexpensive.
OVERSTOCK SUPER CLEARANCE PRICING - 12 ITEMS: We have over 2500 total
pieces in stock of the 12 Binaltech and Microman items now listed on the
top of the clearance menu. That ends up being a bit more inventory than I
like to carry on these items so we are selling it off below cost!
Our upcoming new website will help me forecast order quantities much more
accurately so this situation isn't likely to happen in the future, so take
advantage of my error and stock up on items below wholesale costs!
Binaltech: BT-02, 03, 04, 05, 06 are all $34.99!! Microman Catwoman,
Batman & Batgirl, Devilman, and Bio Machine Sets are up to 50% off!
These prices will be increased once the inventory levels go down to a more
desireable level.
MACROSS: The Macross Valkyrie Display Stand has arrived and is available
for $54.99. This stand will work on both 1/60 and 1/48 scale valks. The
quality is impressive and it has a weighted base to help keep your valks
in the air instead of tipping over. The 1/60 Scale Battle Suit
Queadluun-Rau - Max figure has arrived and is available for $99.99
