Here’s a limited release (500pcs) for WF Shanghai, I guess it’s called “Icicle”

Three variants of the BeastDrive dino/dragon/batmobile

Sadly the dragon has by far the worst colors and windshield design

Some weird full-sized accessory for BENBEN. More interestingly it’s labeled as the second InfinityBox (IB-02) but I don’t think we’ve seen IB-01 yet.

I’m also curious why they rebranded from MegaBox to InfinityBox. It doesn’t sound as good, so I’m wondering if they received a cease & desist from Mega Bloks.

That's an anorexic ED209 robot also featured in the movie. IB01 is the gay flying horse you missed.

Not sure why they changed the Megabox English name either (Chinese name is the same), but it has nothing to do with Megabloks. Mattel barely has any presence in China and they don't even use that name anymore.

I guess it's inevitable, given there isn't much to talk about, but still. Maybe we should take a break and make a new thread when actual news pops up? Unless someone wants to post some pics or reviews of their favorite Beast Boxes or Mega Boxes?

I decided not to wait and see if it was going to become available here, so I nabbed one from the same guy that sold me Vaporwave and Deep Purple for relatively the same price they were. I'll post pics when it gets here, but that may not be for another week or so. I doubt the thread will stay alive that long.

As badly as I want this, I can’t justify paying $100+ for it on eBay (Aliexpress page kept saying it couldn’t ship to Germany). Too many other figures I could spend that money on when I already own the kirin, and the pegasus will eventually have a “regular” release in different colors. Maybe I’ll regret it one day but oh well.

Either that, or it’s cheaper than we think to produce repaints in small quantities.

But yeah, I hate this shit. I don’t know what the plan is for the EVA-colored beetles >>10638071 but it wouldn’t surprise me if they were ultra-limited too

It took them 1 additional year to get the international TMNT license. Doubt they'll bother bringing the exclusive EVAs abroad if the licensing is similarly complicated.

Not really an issue from their POV since their local market is sufficient. The Pegasus sold out within minutes.

Got my first beastboxen a couple weeks ago. Jawbreaker and Reaper were both on sale. I'm loving the shit out of these guys. A ton of them I would get if only their leg joints and proportions were a little different. Shovelhead and Sigma are coming soon
>these beetle guys in OP
not bad, but on of them seems to be combining the rhinoceros horn with stag pincers? that's just... against the beetle rules. Would definitely get the other two, airplane wings on a beetle is just awesome

I'm legit kinda upset about this. All the possible configurations of those sets is pretty much what drew me into 52T. They're pretty much like combiner transformers, that also have functional cockpits, and turn into a cube for a little extra bit of transformability. Almost feels like thee brand is on a decline in the current global economy. And with the new 7mm cubes, it feels like they are falling back on the old western toy marketing trick of "just make bigger, so it looks like a better value" while cutting corners in a lot of other places. I do really wish i could be more positive about how they are doing, but i just cant

My Tianma isn't here yet, but I got a message from BBTS yesterday that my Sigma and Rhapsody are en route; it usually only takes about two days for items to arrive once they've shipped from them, so I should be able to review Sigma either tomorrow or Monday (they won't deliver on a Sunday).

All three of them actually turn into jets/spaceships, too. They're pretty cool.

Starting with a triple-changing bat, and three colors of the axolotl (pink, black, yellow-orange)

Gotta admit going the more "robo human" vs "human proportioned robot" is the wrong turn for this line.

Landbreaker/Deep One were super cool because you could see how they were vehicles turned into Transformers, but especially with the planes/this guy it just looks uninspired when they're transformed as they just look like generic robots.

Do you have a link? For some reason I couldn't find it. I have trouble with their search functions in general. And amazon.com wont ship them to Canada and .ca doesn't have them.

I hope random joytoy girl is right. When anything else pops up in the future from this line Im.buying it ASAP. I cant miss out on a tiny Mike Haggar
