yippie!!!

I won this Yahoo Japan Auction. I finally get the last TRU set so I can make this guy:



Oh and I will be selling the other TRU exclusive set with the white Air Leon, red Build Giraffet and red Carry Eagle. The colors look much nicer combined than the original versions. I am also selling the Roid General 3 set. This set has the Mugenroid form of Q, R, & S. The figures are translucent, and have the letters sculpted into their head, but aren't painted. They also come with the yellow parts in the pictures above. I also have a Guard Kong and blue Carry Eagle I am selling. PM me if interested in any of these sets. Get them before I put them on eBay.

Congrats, Overbite!

Hey guys, I got a question about Ryan..how does the payments work out?
I'm a bit curious as I don't want to request something, and then when the time comes, don't have the funds available.


Aoi

Well, I think Ryan's stuff is pretty reasonably priced, although his shipping costs are a bit on the steep side (around $40+ for EMS). But if you want to find some of the harder to find Mugenbine bits, Ryan is probably your best bet!!

Fingers crossed my Wanrikiguma arrives from HLJ soon; it was dispatched last Friday (23rd), and has yet to enter the UK. Wouldn't be surprised if the delay is weather-related, as it has been pretty dodgy over here..

Heres a combo using all the "Insect" themed Mugenbines, thanks to the Variable Website.

cool pic cheese.
I like the themed combinations...

so i got my package from Rosalinda yesterday! *happy dance*

that brings my number of sets up to, i think, 43~!

and i honestly had no idea Hercules came with a Mugenroid AND a Turboroid...Fire and Police are also really nice...and im enjoying Zord Elephant.

i also put an order in with Ryan for Heavy Mammoth and Tri-Wolf...and i just won a rare Brave Series Ultra Raker figure on ebay. This is turning out to be a good week.

Also, Cheese, Thanks for those pics (front AND back! I hate not seeing the back of some awesome combos, makes them so much harder to work on) im so gonna build that now. =]

Well, my new totally unbusted Wanrikiguma turned up today, which ups my set count to 40!! Once my next lot of dough gets into Paypal, the Tri-Wolf (plus a few other sets) will be mine!! Mwahahaha

Ok, am waiting for a Mugen Emperor and a 4 Dragons Legends set from Ryan, which will up my set count to 42, unless you count each Candy toy as a separate set...

Variable is a damn good site for themed combos - colors, bugs, dinos, etc. That is also where I got details on making the Mugen Kaiser 5 from the last page.

If you need a translator for the site, I recommend World Lingo. I use the Fox Lingo plus in for fire fox and love it.

where did you get that plug in Gen. Magnus?

I think I found it on the firefox start page (the one w/ google on it). You could easily google Fox Lingo and find it too. It should be the first result.

cool I'll look into it since I usually use Safari and they don't have any language translation built in.

Hey, for any of you guys who have Key bots, can you post some scale pics? I'm just curious how big the core monsters and the shield monsters are.

I have all the Keybots but they are currently in boxes awaiting release! I just moved and what a nightmare that was. Now I own this place so I don't have to move for years and I can do what I want with my toys!

LET US OUT!!!!!!!!!!!

when you get them out, If I could get a general scale shot of the different figs?
maybe next to a pop can or something?

I'll post pics as soon as I drag them out Majin.
On another note, I just got Try Wolf from my brother and he is cooler than the pictures lead you to believe.
The machine mode is the weakest of them ,but it can be modified. I'll post pics as soon as I find my camera!
Heres a cool pic from the "Official" Mugenbine site.

can't wait for Try Wolf pix cheese.
Also of the 4 (probably 8 including doubles ) how would you rate them from best to worst?

I would rate Powerful Tyranno #1 with Speed Eagle very closely behind in 2nd, Try Wolf in third, leaving Heavy Mammoth to bring up the rear.
Heres a combo I just made, using the two Try Wolfs I just got.
I call him...
TRY WARWOLF!!!

Check out this SWEET combo, posted on Prominence!

I finally got my key bots after waiting 20 days. HLJ's SAL shipping takes forever. not doing that again.
I have the ordered the gigadragon and two shield monsters next, but now theyre listed as backordered...
I hope my order is what made them be back ordered, that way I still get them.

for those of you who have keybots, whats the best places to get them?
Im using HLJ, but if Amenbo ever comes back, I'll use them. outside of that, I havent seen them anywhere else.

The Mugen Candy toys turned up earlier today (yippee), so I'll be messing about with those for a while!! Pix will be forthcoming..

Keybots are worse than Mugenbines to find at retailers. Before my brother moved it was Amenbo I got them from.
Heres my new Try Wolf combo:
FIRE DOGG

I think he looks very "Brave Series Robo" like.

Sorry.
Haven't been online lately.
Eh. An instrument. XD

cool combo there cheese. Fire Dog looks pretty good.

ok, HLJ is processing my keybots order. I'm getting gigadragon, and 2 shield monsters, cuz thats about all thats left.
hope they are as cool as they look.

ooops forgot to reply.
Which candy toys did you get?

Go to this site and look at his combo's. http://keytoy.web.fc2.com/kt_main.html
This is what really inspired me to get Keybots.
For example: Click to view attachment or Click to view attachment

I got the Mugen Emperor, and the 4 Dragon Legends sets. They are pretty damn good actually; well worth the money, if you ask me!

Good to hear. I may have to really look into them both. I was thinking about them but I wasn't really sure on what to do - get them or not.

Well, I can recommend them both!!

The candy toys are as good if not better than the Mugenbines themselves. I also highly recommend them.
On a side note, if you can, download the new anime "Heroic Age". I just watched the first episode and I really liked it! Even more than chocolate milk!!

Heroic Age? Will have to check that out!!

BTW, has anyone else here who has the Mugen candy toys actually tried eating the candy itself? Was debating to give it a try, but I'm erring on the side of caution..

I am hoping Ryan from f2f can hook me up with the candy sets.

Also I updated my Mugenbine display:


The big guy uses 7 Mugenbine sets (A-F and Z). I based most of him from a pic from a Japanese website but made some changes to the legs and back.

I would of, but my Mugenbine(first set, still need to email Ryan about the others) candy sets actually didn't have the candies in them. The Dekabase robo did have the candies and I still ended up eating them.


Aoi

Hey peeps!!

Just thought I'd post pix of my latest combo robot. Got stuck for a name, so I just called it Jungle Terror for some strange reason. Anyway, here he is!!

well, I fired off an email to Joel at BBTS about Key Bots, and he says he'll talk to his guys in japan about getting them in stock!
now, If I can just get him to get more mugenbines...

good job Uncle Joe
at least somebody made a good combo with Build Fire's big head

Thanx Overbite!! Ok, the feet need a bit of work - couldn't find two big pieces that matched - but apart from that, I am quite proud of it!!

Am half-tempted to start work on a combo using ALL of my sets; will just need to figure out where to start..

Here's the newest Try Wolf gattai! Sorry I'm doing so much with this one figure, but he's the only one I have unpacked
He's called SPACE FIREWOLF or スペース火のオオカミ (Translation: Wolf of space fire) I love that name!

cool combo cheese. Only problem is the mini driver is gonna have a hard time seeing out the window with the sticker in the way.
(I wish amenbo would come back on line so I can get this figure... )

Cheese do you happen to have any info as to when they are supposed to get their new system finished?

No news on the Amenbo front.
Aki is no longer keeping in touch.
I think they are really busy with this new site and all.
I can tell you this though, don't expect to be seeing the inventory that was on the old site. The reason they are doing this is to make his business more manageable. When dealing with products of this nature, the business can get away from you and take on a nature all its own. It becomes a snowball going down a mountain and before you know it, it's out of control. That was what was happening at Amenbo, so now he's trimming his inventory, creating a better web based ordering system and reeling it all in to a more controllable level. I hope he doesn't discontinue the Mugenbine or Keybots lines, but there is a chance he may take the store back to its roots, which was a Zoids and Chogokin store only. Mostly Zoids when he first started.
Here's hoping them the best of luck no matter which direction they go.

thanks for the info cheese.
still wish I had an idea when they are coming back...

i said it before and ill say it again...Mugen Hercules is Friggin awesome.

=]

I agree Stackups. Here's a cool combo using multiple Hercules sets.

Thanks to Tokbine's website! You can see more here: http://tokbine.hp.infoseek.co.jp/m_bine/katamari.html

I'm starting to kick myself that I don't have any multiple sets (ok, I've got 2 Wanrikigumas). Oh well...

I don't have any multiples either.

I just ordered the Insect Double from BBTS finally. I can't wait to get them in. Of course, technically, I would have a double when I get that in thanks to Junk Stag but I'll be giving that to my son so his Xenobine can have some company.

I am also hoping that my second order from Rosalinda gets here today. It has been 4 weeks since I paid and 3 weeks since it shipped. This one contains my Over Ligan, Launcher Saurus, and Zorde Elephant. This wait has gotten tiresome.

Just as I had hoped, my parcel came in today!



I can't wait to get LS into some sweet combos!

I also got my shipment in today: TRU exclusives Three Beast Warrior set (White Questknight, Black Razor Ninja, and Red Save Gunman); another Triple Mugenbine set (white Air Leon; Red Build Giraffet; red Carryeagle) and another Roid General 3 set. The Triple Mugenbine set is on hold and The Roid General 3 set is up for sale. PM me if interested.

I'll get some pix up soon...

I couldn't wait to make some combos with my new guys...so here you go:

Dino 3

from Variable

Alternate Mugen General 7 (using all parts)

from nmb.nobody

and a 5 member combo I made with the remaining figures (except Junk Stag since I have my Insect Double coming and this Junk Stag will be going to my boy). This combo is unnamed as of right now.

That last combo of yours Magnus reminds me of a combo i made called Sol Kaiser. Will post pix of it later!!

And now that I've re-installed Paint Shop Pro, I will start work on a bit of Mugen stop-motion animation this week..

EDIT: Here's my SolKaiser robot thingy, btw!!
