Please do not share or repost the Metal Cardbot leaks! There were leaks during season 2 as well, and it was damaging to the production staff. If you want the show or toys to continue without issue, please just keep leaks to yourself when it comes to ongoing series. #metalcardbot

Botcon/Agabyss using a screenshot from the fansub website for a social media post on their official accounts is so funny. this company is so un-serious. officially endorsed fansubs i guess?

yeah i'd get that much, but only advertising at conventions was rlly dropping the ball i think. also thats literally how it feels between that and the english dub. was SAMG lied to? what are the qualifications? and where can i find these cool jobs with 0 qualifications? lol

Metal @stardustspeedway.bsky.social · 8d

and of course it's all new box art, but yeah we dont have any actual photos yet of what exactly we're getting LOL. but i trust SAMG will only improve it from their first runs, and again, its stuff like yellow VS blue eyes, gold paint vs yellow plastic, etc.

pretty much overall. aside from the weapon cards having no text (or new names?) The product photos used for shadow X look like the original version and not the chinese version w better paint. but its a new factory run so it may have its own new variations. but variations have mostly been minor

Metal @stardustspeedway.bsky.social · 8d

maybe then we'll actually get product photos (if they're using stock imagery why not upload it for the rest of them?) SAMG is such a big company in Korea idk how they're flopping so hard with the US

Metal @stardustspeedway.bsky.social · 8d

there was never discussion in regards to this from anyone official. They're a very large part of the character design, and what makes them unique, so they'de kill the line for MCB fans in the US doing that. They're quite easy to modify though. 2 toys can currently hide the eyes (Flame Nova, Tigun.)

their name would be printed on the weapon card included. in the photos, it looks like no name is printed on the card. i wouldnt mind the name changes if they were decided by actual writers or something lol. Also, this is a new factory run in the US and there may be differences in color and quality

Metal @stardustspeedway.bsky.social · 9d

I will be upset if we do not get full-gold paint black hook but every other regional difference for the rest of the characters in wave 1 have been similar enough. Although Heavy Iron's weapon card either being light or dark blue is a fairly big difference (I like both)

Metal @stardustspeedway.bsky.social · 9d

A huge selling point for me was that they didn't put the new terrible names on the weapon cards (although I was kinda looking forward to Blue Star.) However, this could be that the images are not final, and the final cards may have the names. In which case I will be upset but I'll risk it.

PLEASE NOTE: Free shipping is NOT added by default. you must select it manually from the shipping options drop-down menu at checkout.
Few other things to note: not everything has product photos, and those photos are not final or indicative of what the new factory run we will receive looks like.

For anyone curious, this is the in-store treatment Metal Cardbot gets in South Korea at a Toys R' Us. Sure, it doesn't help that the US doesn't have toy stores anymore outside of Walmart and Target's toy aisles and a few specialty stores at the Mall. But we are really getting the bootleg experience.
