  1. Despite the fact that I have the HM version (with the super parts on the Messer Memorial instead) and the DYRL gray release, I still talked myself into one of these. I also already had an extra set of super parts from somewhere I had thrown on a VF-1D to get that classic ARII model action:
  2. I know some folks have had issues with Luna Park, but I've gotten a few things form them with no issues. And unlike NY, Luna has an account here that responded to issues in the past.
  3. While I love the idea, I know the Toynami toys in roughly the same scale have already been ripping off the Takatoku style, so Bandai may shy away from that!

    With the HM TV 1S and HMR DYRL 1S both already in my collection, my first reaction is "Hold". But then I see the dupes I have of the already released stuff and my mind says "Buy". I mean, I don't really *need* three Hikaru 1Js

    They got the arm armor slope right but shouldn't they be greener in color? EDIT: Relooking, they are a bit greener than the others. It just looked darker blue like the DYRL releases on first glance.
  6. Got a selection of 3d printed Macross, Southern Cross, Mospeada (and, um Robotech) starship minis from a few Etsy folks to go along with my Space Battleship Yamato Mechanical Collection gashapons. I am waiting for the support bases to arrive for the Macross/Mospeada bits, but stole some of the Yamato bases for the Southern Cross ships: Will move things around to display them better once I get everything loaded on bases. Here's some of the Yamato guys I already had that are roughly the same size:
  7. As technoblue said, the pinned PO thread was created specifically because this thread seemed "unwieldy" to some, so it is dedicated to the latest POs. If you follow that, you should get notification when there is new things for PO.
  8. I'm not a huge fan of adding in the light-up gimmicks on the Zents and Destroids, especially when it leads to clear pieces popping all over. I'm also wondering about the rotating missile pod on the Tomahawk. It's interesting but not sure it is something anyone has been clambering for? And it is a bad sign when the joints for your demo pieces lead your Glaug to fall asleep.
  9. This is me except my 1J is the armored version. I'm passing on the Angel Birds because it has never been one of my favorite color schemes. I like the character schemes but otherwise stick to darker or close to single color schemes. The Yammie 30th annivesary was one of the biggest offenders for me of "WTF is all these different colors?" Give me the 25th Anniversary black with gold trim any day.
  10. Given the cost increase we're seeing on the import of the HMR VF-0, you are probably better off going the Japan route anyway.
  11. The antennae or whatever they are on the head bugs the hell out of me.

    Yeah, the catapult connector on the front doesn't look like it moves (though I could be wrong given the angle). If it doesn't move, then I'm guessing they are plug-ins. Edit: Zooming in on side picture I'm not sure anymore. It is an odd angle to "lock" them in at, so it may move:

    I think I have a copy of that on this lappy, along with the Mechforce game.

    I had a friend who custom made a pink and purple plaid mech in Armored Core years ago- he called it the Ass Baby.

    I think it is just a blue cast from the photo on the light brown color like the original Yamato(and soon to be Arcadia) 1/60 Tomahawk release. Like if you took a picture of this and your phone camera added a little blue to the mix: And youb get this:

    Yeah, that part of his site I always remember to go to for HMR scales (it is in the Monster review). And those look fantastic!

    Pretty close. I always reference @jenius site for the HMR scales, since it has a better approximation than when people say "1/100".
  19. All the goodies in the larger 40th Anniversary Call of Cthulhu RPG box set.
