I mainly want to see the new articulation. Just check out if they are in the right track and is comparable to at least the newest SOC (gx-45 and newer). Somehow, I don't think it will be as good as the SRCs. At least not yet. Yeah, curiosity is killing me!  }D |

My understanding is that the articulation will be similar to MT01 but with cleaned up joints.. I think he may have said something about a better way to make a shoulder joint... not sure.

no the US supply was off-loaded and at his US warehouse already.. the EU stuff should be through the Panama canal already and headed for the EU/
from what I took of the situation is that hes busy in the Netherlands and hasn't processed his orders yet. Hes probably got a lot of them to fill out so hes going to be behind I bet. I haven't directly spoken with Paul so I don't know the details yet.
Another thing that could be happening is that hes waiting for the EU shipment to arrive so his EU customers cant order in the US and cause a bunch of crazy shipping problems at his US warehouse. The US warehouse would be emptied and the EU warehouse would have most of the product in it... we would end up getting screwed. ha

That would be a wise move, or also charging EU buyers an astronomical shipping & handling fee, to compensate for all the trouble shipping EU orders could cause.  }D |

So Z Mazinger IS teh next Metaltech after Gin gin huh? Also man whats up with the Jeeg? One thing about the Jeeg I like better than the CMs is the curve of the top thigh,it points out just like the anime,CMs missed that subtle detail.

Jeeg was an exclusive for an Italian toy shop.. Im not sure if it was ever finalized or not... I was told that it was pretty much outrageously expensive due to only a few of them that were planned to be made.. but Im not sure if they ever closed that deal or not.

Oh ok because it said it was a start of a new line Zero-1 or something like that.

Yeah it was a planned joint venture between HLpro and a Italian toy shop. It was called a ZPro it think. I haven't asked about that in a long time and I don't know what became of that venture. I haven't seen any for sale. It was supposed to be sold exclusively through that Toy Shop. I kinda hope they didn't ever make it because that would make a great Metaltech one day..
