Also any news for the MT07?? Yes..I'm so looking for Izenborg. I think HL said that it would be an MT, so who knows when will we see any news about it.

oh no...18 months? I can't wait that long.
GS, I'm respectfully passing on MT01, but I DO have my beady eyes on Gin Gin. Please give your usual nice video review on him real soon.

I think it was 18 months, don't hold me to that... I know Gattiger has to come out next, then I think it was ZMazsinger. They got a lot of stuff planned, HLpro wants to get them out there. Whats slowing them down is whether or not the distributors will buy them that quickly. To get them made requires a pretty big order.

I don't know how many times it has been posted before since the creation of the Metaltech line... HLPro/High-Dream take forever and a century to release their stuff. Their customer service is super incredibly awesome, but their manufacturing/figure release speed is slower than frozen molasses flowing uphill. That is just the way it is and it seems that it will never change. }|

Its the distributors. When they order them, HLpro makes them. HLpro doesn't just make them then send them to the distributors willy-nilly. The distributors have to order them to be made. Its a business venture between the manufacturer and the distributor based on the demands of the market. Release too much too soon and you will totally lose your ass.
But if memory serves, I think we get Gin Gin, Gattiger and then Zmazinger , a new 12" action figure and a new Jumbo and a few other things like vinyls all in the span of maybe 18 months depending on demand and sales .. that's pretty good actually. You gotta remember themazingerz, HLpro is pretty diversified, they've put out quite a bit of stuff the past 18 months, that big Duke Fleed, the Vegan soldier, that 10" Grendizer vinyl they been pretty busy.. its not just all about Metaltech. The MT line is for guys like "us"... the average HLpro customer is buying things like t-shirts Mugs and calendars .. the cheaper stuff. That all cool, even Harley Davidson does that. Harley makes more from t-shirts and gifts then they do from selling motorcycles. Its just good business strategy.

O what? Well, That sucks. Thanks Baron. I'm going to check other sites to see what the deal is..
Well, the only date I found was the Metaltech's own site and it states July 2013... Any bros here who have better idea please keep us in the loop.

So, I understand PBM is waiting for a huge order to be filled before getting their GinGin orders in. However, how come there are no European Ebay sellers offering the GinGin already. I don't think it is the "distributors" fault at all that it has not hit the street yet. HLPro is once again taking forever and a century to release their stuff - no need to look any further on that. }|

nothing changed .. shipment was loaded into the boat 15th of August ... then about a day later, the ship was held up for a few days in Hong Kong due to a typhoon off the coast. Ship should be arriving in the US anytime.. but I think the sale will not open until all distributors have the Gin Gin in stock to avoid any unfair advantages.. so the sale should open in a few more days, maybe a week or so.

Okay, then what happened to the European, and any other Non-USA sellers' Gin Gin orders then? Are their Gin Gins on the same boat as PBMs too? This feels like the same game Miracle Production was playing with their Vehicle Voltron release... }|
