Word reaches us from our sponsors this evening in regards to an upcoming third party product. Mech Ideas’ Demolition Crue Geminus (Aka Twin Twist) will be coming with an extra, bonus head. This head features battle damage to represent Twin Twist’s torture scene from IDW’s Last Stand of The Wreckers.
This figure and his twin, Apex, will be available in March and can be preordered from various TFW2005 sponsors. Lock in your preorders at Captured Prey, BBTS, and TFSource

Man I pumped to hear these are on the fast track.
You know if these come out dope I'd like to see them take a shot at Overlord & Springer.

Reckon so, for a little while at least.

So who here is going to use the extra head?

Really excited for these guys. I could care less about the packaging. If that's what helped it have a reasonable cost than I'm all for it.

According to TFSource, they are shipping this week and they're estimating them to arrive next week.

Well, something had to go given the current release schedule of 3P's & Takara this year. I will probably kick myself later, but I canceled my order. The biggest reasons are that they are a newer 3P (I would like some reviews first) and that terrible packaging. I am also not sure about the size. In that video he compares Apex to a FOC UM and Apex looks a lttle smaller. This could just be the bad angle he has, but that is a little smaller than I was hoping for. Again, a good US review may make all my concerns turn to regret as I have always liked these two characters.
Atomatron
well still waiting for Arms Wildrider and Rumble, so may as well hold off until i hear more about this! warehouse seems backed up over there right now anyway
scratch that..processing… ugh now what to do….
so they are shipping next week or should arrive next week?

I imagine if TFSource is getting theirs early, than so will BBTS since I doubt shipments will start early for only one retailer.
And no, there is no confusion with the Longblast upgrade kit. TFSource posted this news on the early shipment on their Facebook page. I'd post the link, but I know not everyone has Facebook on here. If you do, just look up the TFSource page and it'll be there.
Atomatron
only tfsource getting theirs early or bbts too?
also im still only seeing march everywhere…sure not being confused with the gun set here?

Thanks man. I just have to be more patient.

I just did a search and here's one store taking pre-order for it right now

I'm sure more will pop up soon

I'll be excited if this gets bump up early, looks like Toyworlds Hardbone & Aurora got bumped back to the end of February (At least per Chimungmung's site). And how can you beat the price for the two of these guys? I hope we see some more products form Mech Ideas soon.
Matty
Hmmm the bump in release date might force me to drop this pre-order. We'll see.
FatedLazarus
With the bump up in release date I was worried that I wouldn't have the funds to cover these guys. But then I remembered that the MT Mobain sets had been delayed a good bit so now that money will now go toward these guys. Silver lining I guess.
Rapido3
Are the height of these guys known? Scout? Deluxe?
TFao
After seeing more and more of these MI is looking extremely legit right now. I'm super impressed with what they have done with these guys and I wonder what their next project will be.
On the strength of how these turned out, I'd love to see them take a shot at Perceptor. I think they could od something great there.

If these come out early and TFC Blackbird is on time in Feb…gonna finally ship my POL baby! Christmas is a bit late, but it's almost time to celebrate!
archieboy
No Asian preorders yet. Jigga do you know any Taobao stores that carry these?
Jigga
The lack of packaging is to keep the cost of these items down. Think of MI as your Old Navy while MMC is your Banana Republic.
