Yes but the difference between this and outlaws is that the guy who made outlaws said himself it was just a fan made thing. The guy who leaked this has told the guys at TTV they are 100% legitimate and that the second image going around too mich may cost him his job. Now, I'm all for remaing skeptical until we get more, but crying "fake" just because? No.

Ok then. If you honestly believe it is photoshopped, go find pics of what ever mocs the person used. Photoshopping something is relatively easy. Making it look convincing........not so much.

So, the guys over at TTV posted a comment on their video saying the images have been confirmed as 100% legit.

People, I urge you take this with a grain of salt and wait until we get some concrete images later this year as we always do. I'm not gonna say it's a flat out fake, but it could be.

Favorite "obscure" constraction theme?
Jetrax99 replied to TheGreatSpirit's topic in LEGO Action Figures
That is also my favorite. Galidor is my second favorite. Sadly I never owned any of the Knights Kingdom figures. -

I met a guy from Mattel who bought some LEGO for play testing

Or so this woman assumes. As I understand, PVC is used for the soft or "rubberized" plastic- 22 replies

I wanna know why people assume MB doesn't use ABS. It feels the same as a lego brick to me. Even more so, where are people coming up with the whole "they use polystyrene" crap? Polystyrene is what is used to make foam peanuts and disposable cups and bottles. Pretty much every major toy company, MB included, uses ABS plastic.- 22 replies

You act as if it isn't already competition. Well, if it wasn't before, it will be soon since Mattel bought MEGA. I've already got my fair share of Mega Bloks and they're as good as any Lego set.- 22 replies

Compete with Family Guy? Both franchises are owned by Fox. They don't compete.

Mega Bloks primarily. Specifically Halo and WoW. Not a fan of CoD. There are a couple Kre-O sets I want, mainly the USS Vengeance. I also have the basic Optimus Prime.

[MOC] cragster max battle mode (shuff + krader + seismo)
Jetrax99 replied to bacem's topic in LEGO Action Figures
Is he in any way related to the rock monsters from Power Miners and Rock Raiders? Seriously, looks cool, but the googly eyes make it go from threatening to cute. -
Now all they need is a decent rage face. The eyes alone are good but a rage face would add to the hilarity.
-
Upsetting? Brand loyal are you? That makes your opinion biased. As for clone brands w/ terrible quality, the only one I can think of is Best Lock.
-
I don't SWOOSH, I don't WOOSH, and I certainly don't PEW PEW. I get as close to the actual sound as I possibly can.
-
I'm gonna have to disagree w/ you about MB's quality. It's actually really good and on par with LEGO IMO, and with MEGA recently being bought by Mattel, their quality is gonna go up. If you don't think it's on par w/ LEGO now, you will soon. I will however agree with you that MEGA needs to start producing female minifigs for the WoW line. Also, MEGA BLOKS components are made of ABS as well, not "cheap styrene" or even polystyrene as some think. Polystyrene is used to make those containers you find lunch meat and pudding in.
-
Also, expect the quality to jump as MEGA was recently purchased by Mattel. As far as their current quality, it feels on par to me.

IF these do end up not being released in the US, does Amazon ship internationally? I don't plan on browsing ebay or bricklink for these.
-
Ok, I see what you're saying. Yeah, the whole "cancelled in the US" thing is just currently speculation. And I'm sure there's always a reason, but potential customers probably wouldn't complain as much if they knew what the reason was. I've made arguements about Hasbro possibly not releasing items but only because I knew there was precedence for said product not to be. For now, all we have is an "if". If they are released here, all the better. If not, I'd like to see a reason as to why.
-
I know Takara markets items to Japan and only Japan. That's why they're not on my list. Hasbro has done it in the past where they released six figures at the tail end of the G1 toyline but only in the UK. They did it again recently with the GDO figure, which for no reason anyone can think of, were Asian market exclusives. Sure we got them here in the US eventually (due to all the whiners) but they were TRU exclusives. As for Mattel, it has to deal w/ the recent Max Steel reboot. While I understand Max Steel stayed extremely popular in Central/Latin America after the first TV show, it still makes no sense why Mattel limits the action figures to that region while producing crap toys with crap gimmicks for the US market. It's completely stupid. Again, they'd still get their more profitable sales while allow people in other regions to purchase the same items as well. It stands to reason they'd make more money if they weren't confined to one region only.
-
Nobody said it was going to be like that exactly. It's just more speculation.
-
Well, that doesn't mean a US release should be cancelled. They'll still get their more profitable sales in the European market, and those of us here in the states that actually want the sets won't have to scrounge ebay, bricklink or get them imported. Too expensive.
-
They better not be cancelled for the US, otherwise LEGO can join Hasbro and Mattel in my list of companies that make products limited to a certain region for no reason whatsoever.

Meso, to answer your question from the vid, no, the zamor launchers don't look to be remolded, and yes, the one on Fluminox looks black. Now a question for you. Do you guy ever alternate member or bring new people on?

Believe it or not, Mega Bloks is actually better than most say, and in several ways better than LEGO ("WHAT!? HERESY!!"...shut up). One: ARTICULATED MICROFIGURES Two: Liftime garuntee on all parts with free replacements (unlike our beloved LEGO, who charges for parts). Plus, they have lines specifically for collectors, those being Halo, WoW and COD. I have quite a few Halo sets and I'm starting to collect the Warcraft sets. And no, I'm not censoring "Mega Bloks". That's unnecessary and childish. Also, I'm not ashamed of buying from both companies.
