Ah! I wanted to build him, but never did figure out how to get those Police things on his chest to fit.

Aoi

I would if I still had him!

I can kinda build that Mugen Commander bot, but with Mugen Hercules and Heavy Mammoth instead of the Mugen Builder, and the end result looks pretty cool!! Not yet tried to incorporate more sets and make him even bigger yet; might have to give that a whirl some time..

Is there any chance y'get a shot of how the "Police" 'badges' attach to his chest? I think I can figure out the rest from there.

Aoi

Take the blue rectangle shaped piece and attach it to the top two pegs on the police box. Then take each rounded piece and attach them to the rectangle. Dino arms then attack to the two lower pegs on the rounded pieces. Quite simple actually...

Appreciate it. I wasn't using the blue rectangle shaped piece.

Aoi

Wow, huge thread here...

Me and a friend just now got into Mugenbine now that there's a lull in Transformers until late June. At the moment I've got Ginoujin and Kinoujin and he's holding a MugenPharaoh set for me. Right now I've got Yuutenma, Junk Stag, Great Rex, and Heat Tricera on the way... My friend went totally overkill off the bat, He's got all those candy toy sets above plus Junk Stag, Heat Tricera, Xenonbine, Save Gunman, Overligan, Impact Dile, and now he's got Power Nose, Quest Knight, Galaxy Rex, and Kaiser Condor on the way. When he starts a new collection he REALLY starts it.

But we're in a game of one-upsmanship on who can make the best combiner out of the Kinoujin and Ginoujin set. Interesting seeing what comes out.

Welcome, Omega-One.

Awesome creations y'got there!


Aoi

It's nice to find a place still interested in these, though replies seem to be slow here, too... that's what sucks about discovering a toy series too late, like that movie all your friends saw opening day and you waited for the DVD, nobody wants to talk about it anymore.

I'm running out of things to do with these two sets though! My orders need to hurry up and get here so I have more to build. Already went back and made a better hydra, kinda the only big beast you can make with these two alone.

Well, I have been a bit busy / otherwise occupied (trying to teach myself guitar), hence why I haven't posted in awhile..

Uh-huh. We know the truth! UJ's really gotten to the age of senility in fans. He's forgotten about his poor Mugenbine figures. Sniff Sniff. Poor poor Mugenbine figures. Hey hey. Since you've forgotten an' all; want to send them this way? I'd be happy to give them a home.

Hey..I see what you're gonna do with the guitar!...I was kidding! Ow. Ow. ...Didn't hurt! ....owowowow. 'Kay. Maybe a little...not! ow..kay...it hurts...

..Did I say Poor poor Mugenbines? ....Now it's Poor poor Guitar....


Yea...sometimes we have our quiet times, but we usually find something to keep the topic slightly active. We'll be burstling once the next Candy Set is released.
(Heck, PROMINENCE is having a little bit of a drought, too. )

Just curious, UJ. Are y'gonna be putting any vids up of you and the guitar on YouTube?

Aoi

I might, once I got the hang of a few better tunes - I can kinda play Honjitsu Wa Seiten Nari at the moment..

As for other projects - now I got a tril copy of Comic Life for PC, I might have a go at creating a Mugenbine comic / Manga. have already got a couple of possible story ideas, but need to write them down and flesh 'em out a bit..

UJ

Comic Life?
Sounds interesting.

Aoi

Comic Life is a prog for creating comics (obviously), by importing pictures and digital photos into a comic strip. Originally released for the Mac, they also do a PC version which I got a trial version of at the mo. Will try and write a basic quick story during this coming week, shoot some pix, and try and do a little test page..

UJ

Welcome OmegaOne. It is always good to see some new collectors getting into Mugenbine. Plus you have some
really good creations that you've come up with your two candy sets. Yeah it is kinda slow here and on TFW2005
since there hasn't been any news of upcoming figures. Normally we would have heard some news from Bandai
about what their plans are for the rest of the year but so far they have been pretty quiet.

Aoi, as UJ said, Comic Life is a photo comic software where you import a pic and you get all sorts of ways
to lay out a comic page and do the lettering, layout and sound effects. It makes creating a strip very easy
and quick. I used to use Photoshop and Illustrator in creating the TF photocomic I have on TFW2005 and it
would take quite awhile to get a strip done. Using Comic Life is much faster. I just haven't had any time
to post any updates to my poor strip...

This took about 30 sec to whip up w/ Comic Life:


Can't wait to see what you have planned with your strip UJ.

Oh, that's neat. That'd be fun to do toy reviews and whatnot with.


Aoi

Glad to be here, and glad you like them... but getting into? I'm already in over my neck Yuutenma got here today so I finally get to see the difference between the candy toys and main line figures. Junk Stag, Great Rex, and Heat Tricera should be close behind, I'm already making a deal for Overligan, Save Gunman, and Power Nose, another deal down the line for Mugen Fire, Builder, and Police, my short list contains Teiouryu, Mach Ptera, and Gear Tortoise... then there's all those random ones scattered among eBay and online shops I'm thinking about. I just wanted something to last me till Animated came out but I'm battling a whole new addiction at this point.

Well, I got to plan out a bit of a storyline and a script first before I start taking pix. From there, things should be a lot easier and and faster!!

UJ

I am so in over my head...

Check this out. On the 7th I ordered three Mugenbine off Rosalinda on eBay, all I could afford at the time despite having a couple more I wanted... but four days later I find they have an online store as well with completely different stock. I e-mailed to ask if I ordered again from eBay if they could combine it with an order from the shop and ship it all together, and as I was aware of some of the deals they had in the past, asked if they would do it again in the future. The reply is favorable, they would combine from both places, but if I ordered from the stock in their online shop, they'd cut me a good deal... I told them I didn't plan on ordering for a while, but they offered something I never heard of before. I guess based on a good eBay transaction, they offered to ship first and take payment within two weeks... I hit the point where the deal sounds too good to be real but you know what? It all checked out. So I accept, give them the three from the site I wanted, and waited...

Few days go by and I wonder what the status of everything is, order one is late and order two I didn't get an update on after I made it. I e-mail again and ask the situation on the second order... turns out they misunderstood me from the start, when I asked about combining with an eBay purchase, they thought I meant the one I just made. They canceled that shipment and packed them all together and shipped them out like that, should get them next week... wow, that's service.

Now as I have more than a week to abuse this payment time limit, I go ahead and order a few more, ones I can only find in one place with only one left in stock, not taking a chance of missing out here. One off BBTS, a couple off another eBay seller I received my first main figure (Yuutenma) from which was recieved very fast for Hong Kong, got that last one off Rosalinda that I wanted, and if luck holds out (and my G1 parts and/or old Megazords sell), not my last one of the weekend.

What does this long winded story mean? It means I am getting...
Xenonbine
Quest Knight
Teiouryu
Uzamakidori
Junk Stag
Great Rex
Heat Tricera
Save Gunman
Overligan
and Power Nose

...ALL next week. And again... this madness may not be over just yet!

^^Wow, you are hard core.
I hope you aren't spending money for rent, food and stuff.
I've dealt with Rosalinda trading before and they are pretty much
on the up and up. THeir shipping can be somewhat slow at times.
What is their online store address? I was just aware of their
eBay store.

*slamming head into desk over and over and over...*

Okay, me and a friend of mine are getting into Mugenbine while Transformers is stalled, right? Well of course there's a few we cant find to save our lives, Lancher Saurus, Energy Rhinoce, Razor Ninja, the usual rarities... Last night someone posted all three of those on eBay, I happened to do a Mugenbine search AS the listings were going up.

Well I jump in my chair for starters... but the quanitity on the listings said 7, so ya know what? I'm a good friend, I give my buddy the first shot... an hour later, the auctions are removed. Come to find out today he only had one of each... so I just handed over the only shot I've ever had at any of those figures cause some dumbass can't tell a 7 from a 1. IDIOT!

Oh, and the address? http://store.rosalindatrading.com/mugenbine.html

I am so hopeless... my collection formed in the last month contains:
Kinoujin, Ginoujin, Teiouryu, Uzumakidori, Yuutenma, Quest Knight, Save Gunman, Junk Stag, Power Nose, Heat Tricera, Overligan, Xenonbine, and Great Rex.

I have coming:
Chase Dober, Wing Bat, Fang Tiger, Dig Kong, Carry Eagle, Build Giraffe, Evo Rhinoce, Kaiser Condor, Air Leon, Assault Leon, Razor Ninja, and Needle Stego... whew.

All but those first two arriving next week, in fact there's good chance they'll arrive at the same time. Anyway I post because I know Dig Kong and Fang Tiger are harder to come by so I'm tipping anyone off to two eBay auctions that include the figures, they went dirt cheap last time so anyone who wants them should get a good deal.

Dig Kong's batch: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=280224768909
Fang Tiger's batch: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=280225966689

Thanks for the heads-up, Omegaone! Man. I didn't know ebay has more Mugenbine figs for the pickin'.

I wish I had the money and space for more, though.

Hi guys,
Its Cheese, here under a new name because ENI erased my old member log in, but won't let me have my old name back. So now I'm ChicagoEdd. Not very creative but I'm old and tired so thats the best I could come up with. I've been real busy with work so I haven't done much on the Mugenbine front. I did squeeze this one out of my aged brain, I call it...
SPIDER HERCULES! ( I know not a very creative name, see old comment. )

Nice work, Cheese / Edd - will have to have a go at making this bugger myself! Will also try and make another 2 using Mugen Fire and Mugen Police, and see how they turn out!!

Okay, I'm on a roll!
Meet...
SOBEK, The Mugen King!

Very nice! Glad someone else is posting these

Meanwhile I've had a lot of time to burn on my hands, thus I present... Mugen Gigas!

Click to view attachment

I've been buying up like crazy! My Mugen collection is up to 21 normal figures and two candy sets with more on the way... Too bad the sets I want the most are only available off Amazon.jp, which can ship almost anything to the US, except toys... Need a friend overseas.

Could try and get in touch withTokyo Hunter. I'm figure if you get in touch with him and explain, he'd act as a go-between. Though, I'm not 100% sure. He did use to pick up figures for folks, but got out of it from what I understand. Maybe receiving alredy-bought figures and sending them over isn't as bad as picking up and shipping?


I'm surprised they don't ship toys. I'll have to give Primal-Convoy(I think that's who posted it)'s Amazon ordering tutorial another looksee. He didn't make any mention of not shipping toys.

Aoi

really great work there cheese/ChicagoEdd & OmegaOne. It is good to see new combos while the line is in limbo.
I don't have anything new to show since all of my Mugenbine figures are stored away in their boxes atm; not alot of display space.
(Currently showcasing classics Dcons & Henkei Megatron).

Ditto about Mugenbines being stored, Overbite - but I did get hold of some Geneblock sets a couple of weeks ago, which are pretty cool in themselves. So now my Mugenbines have something / one to fight!!

Ditto ditto'd with the Mugenbines being stored away. The only ones I have out currently are the 1st Candy kits, and the Pharaoh kit, in their combined modes.

I'm just glad with how Bandai packed those. They store away perfectly well.


Aoi

The doubles of my Mugenbines are in my closet, but here are a few pictures of my toy room. Its almost done and I've only been in my new condo a year!
The first picture is the east and south walls, the second is a close-up of my power rangers Zords and the third (if theres room) will be my Keybots and the fourth is the North wall!

Wow. That's a nice set-up, CE. I'll certainly have to keep it in mind for whenever I get around to my own place.

Aoi

As long as this place is active I need help!

Me and a friend have all five components for Mugen General Five, that being Air Leon, Build Giraffe, Carry Eagle, Dig Kong, and... well, Energy Rhinoce rather than Evo, which is the problem. Usually official combination instructions are included with the last figure released for that combination, but since we didn't get Evo, we don't know how to form it... there's not many pictures of it and I don't know where to get instructions, anyone think they can lend a hand?

Heres another version, I think this is the third, of Dragon Pharoah ( formally known as Dark Flame Pharoah. )
He was a pain in the A** to get to stand, and the new candy toys don't mix well with the existing toys, their holes are slightly smaller then the originals pegs.

I edited my post on TFW2005. Apparently the Machine Robo Wedge Book only has one pic of it. The Machine Robo Mugenbine Gattai Orders book has pix on how to use Dig Kong, Fang Tiger and Evo Rhinoce for the arms. Unfortunately there aren't any instructions that come with Evo Rhinoce but you should be able to figure out how they go together loking at the pix. Hope this helps.




cool combo there Edd.
I also noticed how the holes on Mugenpharoah seemed smaller than previous candy toys. I was afraid of cracking them so didn't combine anything to them yet.
I hope Bandai releases new info on the candy toys they are releasing. So far we just have that concept drawing.

That should work, Overbite, thanks a lot!

More Mugen goodness came in today, Wing Bat and Chase Dober...... is it just me or does Chase Dober's packing seem a lot cheaper and poorly done compared to the usual plastic trays?

It isn't too bad really, but does need some getting used to. FYI all of the build Gattai sets from 2007 come in the cardboard boxes. I guess it is to keep the box sizes smaller since these sets have more parts than previous Mugenbine releases.

Nice combo yet again, Edd!! Was just thinking that when I do my next combo, I might take pix of it in the stages on construction - almost like a set of instructions. Might be cool to try out..

UJ

Had some time on my hands today (and a lot of blue bine parts) so I decided to put them to use, with a little inspiration from some of my favorite RPG villains.
Click to view attachment
I'm not totally thrilled with how it turned out, a little too bulky for the wing design. Once I get Mugen Police in I might be able to improve it's shortcomings.

^good combo there OmegaOne

all right. I finally decided to do it.
I preordered the mugen pharaoh candy set from BBTS, and it came with 2 complete sets. I only need the one.
So I'm putting mine up for trade. they are still sealed, but it's just the one set. Looking for some power ranger megazords, or some sentai mecha.
I really need the lost galaxy megazord, the ninja megazord, the shogun megazord, turbo megazord, and the light speed rescue mega zord (not the omega megazord.) also needing the green dragonzord, and a tail for the blue wildforce shark zord, as well as the rhino and elephant power animals.
if anyone has any of these for trade, I'd love a PM. not sure if I'm willing to ship internationally. That mostly depends on what that person is trading me, since they're package will prolly weigh more than mine.

I may eventually think of selling them, but I really want to track down some megazords first. cuz eBay just isn't cutting it.

Sorry, I don't collect power rangers and I already have Mugen Pharoah.
Good luck though.

Hey guys, I'm surprised to see a Mugenbine kitbash here, but it works.

cool find Aoi. I kinda wished Junk Stag was released with those bug legs...

Yea. They're nice. I might have to turn in my fanclub badge tho. In the thumbnail I was like "That looks familar. Is it Megatron?..." click and was like "Still looks familar. Not Megatron.....Hm hm hm..Mugenbine! Wow!"

Hey guys!
Here's a new picture of the upcoming Mugenbine Candy Set. It looks awesome! 06-24-08 is the release date in Japan. You can still order the 10pc. sets from Hobby Link Japan and Big Bad Toy Store!

Well so much for taking it easy with Mugenbine from here on out...

One word to sum up how I feel about this set. Sexy! ...oh, wait. two words. Mine!

Is it me, or does this "core" robot of this set look like it's elbows are articulated?
