Brainbox Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 That jetpack on Hayato's mech would look darn spiffy attached to White Lightening. It'd look good attached to anything! I got my Lego Magazine in the post today, and on the cover behind the Sky Guardian is the Golden Tower. Presumably this means that the images we've seen are near complete. On a side note, there's also an Exo-Force comic. The last panel features a shadowed battle machine, the Iron Crusher. It looks like a souped-up Claw Crusher. A combo model? Quote
SuvieD Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 I want these for parts. Not so impressed by the vehicles but the base looks nice. I really don't need more robots though. Maybe I will bricklink for parts I want from these. The last one certainly looks cool though. Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 These are pretty cool. I like them a lot. The SUV is okay, looks like it will have a base on the sides. Ryo's machine is horrible in my opinion. The tower is cool, and the Sonic Phantomish thingy is okay, but its a horrible concept. I mean Hikaru with swords blocking a laser? Come on! the Ha-Ya-To mech is a hell a lot better than the White lightning and Gate defender, though it would've been better if the main machine wasn't blue. But it has awesome guns. I will definatly get the Ha-ya-to machine! *y* Quote
Darth_Kaidis Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 Hey, are those Hailfire wheels on the robot tank thing? Quote
casewindu Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 hi am michael an am new! yay *sweet* just me or are the exo force sets getting stupider an stupider ! Quote
EXO-CHAMP Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 Maybe you could tell us what you mean by stupid??? Be a bit more specific in your critisism. Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 I think he means by the lack of detail. I can say that on the SUV but not on anything else. -ZotS Quote
Darkness Falls Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 Death.Destruction.World dominance.But i agree, death should come in a more...elegant form. :-P Or perhaps, a form that isn't hollow and doesn't have a brick-made Robot head on the front? Sentai tower comes to mind. Quote
casewindu Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 Maybe you could tell us what you mean by stupid???Be a bit more specific in your critisism. well un like you a think exo force is getting a bit out of control. alright you get big walking things in the first series an there alright then more wakers come out and more and more and they get so stupid if a walking thing had a gun why on earth would they need swords? a think down to earth fact is well agree to differ exo champ a dont want to make any enemys on me first day thanks very much. michael Quote
natelite Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 did anyone else saw the pictures from the french site? hayato's mech looks good from the front (as usual) but the side and back are horrible. the jetpack is definitely too big for the small mech. looks like the EF is dying down. i'm not too keen on the robot suv either. MM theme however...that is beginning to look better. i like the new gold small visor. woo hoo....that i am betting will be extremely popular with fans all around. even space critics. they will probably buy a few small sets just to get the visors. why? think halo. ;-) right now, the only cool colors are trans-black and black. :-P this should add right to that list. the green alien mf however... :-X :-| well, couldnt be worse than bionicle playsets mfs.

I'm not too happy about some of the sumer sets either, if you would care to read my post on the subject. I just stated that if you use critisism, then use it in a constructive manner. Just stating that something looks stupid isn't very helpfull or informative. Regards E-C Quote
Zarkan Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 well un like you a think exo force is getting a bit out of control. alright you get big walking things in the first series an there alright then more wakers come out and more and more and they get so stupid if a walking thing had a gun why on earth would they need swords?a think down to earth fact is well agree to differ exo champ a dont want to make any enemys on me first day thanks very much. Ugh, I strained my eyes and brain to read that. Casewindu, if you are from england, then why can't you type a post without making so many grammar, spelling, and word mistakes? I've seen many germans and french on here that type much better than that, so I suggest you do too. No offence, it's just an honest suggestion. ;-) Getting back on topic, I don't think swords and claws and chainsaws are that out of place in an anime based line, nor are pointless. Why? Well, if you were an Exo-force pilot, and you wanted to deal some seriously heavy damage quickly, using a weapon like a chainsaw or a sword would be easier and quicker. Simply slashing a sword is a lot easier than aiming a laser gun, wouldn't you say? ;-) But, I can see what you are saying, Casewindu, at least in some sense. Because, I too am very dissapointed with at least one of the 2007 sets, Hayato's "mech." Or, can you even call it that? Because what I see in the latest pictures is a tiny cockpit and skinny legs with two massive cannons and three enormous jets sticking out of the back. This... thing, is so seriously ridiculous, that I doubt if it would even stand up in set form. The Jets are hollow with huge gaps in them, the cockpit is tiny and so unprotected, and the mech is so out of porpotion, it's probably longer than it is tall! On top of that, they had to add a missile launcher, giant red fins, and support it all on tiny legs that look like they came straight from the Cyclone Defender, and painted blue. Add it all together and you get one of the most ridiculous sets Lego has ever designed. :-| Seriously, I'd take the Megablocks Dragons Battlestrom Castle over this crazy piece of junk. Other than a few good parts, TLC seriously struck out on this one. *sad* Quote
casewindu Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 sorry for the errors in grammer ( its only my second day give me a break) |-/ Quote

This... thing, is so seriously ridiculous, that I doubt if it would even stand up in set form. Well, this "jet pack" is huge, and I can see what you mean, but I still like it. I think it Quote
EXO-CHAMP Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 I really like Ha-Ya-To's mech too. I looks very powerful for such a small machine. On the new photos you may notice that it has a handle on the back. Maybe for stabilizing when standing or maybe holding it when playing. Quote
Chuck Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 Anyone notice the Female EF pilot in the Golden Tower set? -l2k- Quote
dillthepill Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Wow, I didn't spot that. Maybe it comes with that instead of Hikaru. AND WILL EVERYONE STOP SAYING HOW BAD HA-YA-TO'S COCKPIT IS!! IT IS DRIVING ME NUTS!! I have said this before. Ha-Ya-To's mech is a blue Cyclone Defender with hands instead of the CD's weapons and a huge jet pack. If you are complaining about Ha-Ya-To's mech's cockpit, you are saying the same about the Cyclone Defender's. And I have hardly seen anyone complain about the Cyclone Defender's cockpit. I know the cockpit's are the same, cuz I have the Cyclone Defender myself. Quote
xenologer Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 In Hayato's set. Thats not a jetpack, its a mecha for his mecha. Quote
exo attack Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Anyone notice the Female EF pilot in the Golden Tower set? -l2k- thats hitomi I think, or as I say in my comedy,Lia. Im happy that we get some more flags. Quote
casewindu Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 sorry i never read the story but why are they now on a japanese temple sought of thing instead of that orange base plus what happened to the old man he was cool! :-D Quote
xenologer Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 jeez that figure is ugly... Same generic genki hair... couldn't they do something effeminate at least?? And the eyes... jeez they are waay too sharp and angular for being female, watch a little anime, needs 'tarremekko' style eyes... Quote
