  1. Past hour
  2. I'm still trying to track down anyone still making 1/55 VF-1 sets besides Toyhax. Their sets are still missing the factory stickers, and no signs of offering sets for different pilots or styles.
  3. The Gyan hasn't actually changed that much... they've stylized it a bit, but it looks like all they really did was round off the sharp corners on the MS-15B Gyan from [i]Twilight of Zeon[/i], lose the skirt, and sweep back the top of the conical head. It still has a lot of the original Gyan's odder design choics like the flared ankles, the scuba tank-style backpack, etc. It even has a similarly-designed spear and shield. Which is nice, IMO the 15B is probably the best looking version on the Gyan. This looks like it could be out of an episode of [i]Gundam Evolve[/i] instead of the incredibly overdesigned hot nonsense going on with the Gundams and Zakus that just look like someone said "How busy can we make this, visually?". Kind of says a lot that that this is one of the show's best looking designs thus far, and it also seems to be one of the ones their designer screwed with the least.
  4. Today
  5. Might have to pick that up. I've noticed that, despite having like eight different streaming services, they seem to be pushing original and more recent content (no matter how banal) over older quality content. I just checked, can't steam Knight Rider. And this is less than a week after I was looking for Battlestar Galactica and finishing that I couldn't stream it, either.
  6. Looks fun for sure, but I feel like that’s the wrong song for this movie title. Maybe Jane’s Addiction might have a song that fits that title just a bit better. I could be wrong though
  7. That’s a hell of a punch
  8. I’d imagine that it’s more than a couple of weeks. They had enough time to rise all the way to the top and they do kinda imply that there were more battles that weren’t shown. Maybe it’s just one a week type of event, not sure on the regularity. But even if it was only a short time, you gotta remember that these are only teenage girls and emotions hit fast and irrationally. As far as the robbery, she had found out that the leader of her clan was gonna sell friend out and get rid of the Gundam, which basically is the key to her whole life plan. They’ve shown she had no real interest in the standard life and had a dream of going to earth. I think she felt that they were gonna basically take her entire life away along with the only thing that could allow her to change her life. And not only that, but she probably feels that most if not all of that money should be hers anyway since she’s been the one convincing Shuji to go with her and without her gundam that they’d have gotten nowhere anyway. There’s also the Kira Kira addiction going on. That stuff is more addictive than heroine. It can cause people to make irrational decisions, people to risk their careers and mothers to abandon their children just to fill that high. And then there’s the risk of overdose that is totally destructive to all around. Kira Kira is a hell of a drug
  9. Hey everyone, If anyone's interested I'm selling my First Edition copy of the Robotech Visual Archive: Genesis Climber MOSPEADA hardcover. https://ebay.us/m/no0VAb This is the official artbook published by UDON, long out of print and hard to come by. The book is in excellent shape, stored safely in a smoke-free collection. Tons of concept art, character designs, and behind-the-scenes material for fans of Robotech, MOSPEADA, etc The auction ends in 2 days, so if you’ve been looking to grab this piece of Robotech history now’s your shot. Feel free to DM with questions. I’d love for this to go to someone who really appreciates it.
  10. Looks fun which is not how I would describe Aronofsky's films, lol.
  11. Thanks.
  12. Dang so Aoshima did update their ACKs line with 2 new entries, but they're just Ingram 1 & 2 repacks with the special command vehicles, as they should've been from the start instead of separate kits XD. I really want to see TV ingram 3 from Aoshima plz plz plz >_<
  13. Skyangels Vol IV has some very questionable content....The cover of Misa is fantastic....but the contents do her dirty....very dirty...I remember adding this volume and thinking WTF? Anyways...in reading your post and following the links...I saw this pic from the Laserdisc game... ...reminds me of the old furoku poster from Kawamori.....
  14. I’ve been eyeing the hayate armor parts for a long time. Finally scored one a few months back and had the chance to put it together today. Looks intimidating and I love it! Wish the legs are sturdier to hold up all that weight but it will have to do.
  15. Love this story & write-up @Shawn. I think the images are better in B/W, looks more realistic than in color.
  16. Apologies if this question has already been addressed. Do the Super pack sets for the Bandai DX VF-1 Valks fit on the VF-1D as well?
  17. Not joking here, Hot Toys is actually making it. Put it beside Grogu and see what happens next.
  18. I kind of figured the opposite... that they were bothering to show the fight in the trailer, so there was probably a lot more of it since it was being shown as a centerpeice of the next episode. My mistake, I suppose. That's not quite what I'm getting at. There's not really a sense of how much time has passed since the first episode, but Machu and Nyan have spent very little time with Shuji in the series thus far. What little they've had in terms of interactions has mostly been Shuji talking to/about the Red Gundam or watching him graffiti everything that isn't nailed down. It'd be one thing for them to both be so attached to him if the series had actually shown a developing relationship between them, but Machu and Nyan seem to jump straight from being strangers to a dangerous level of obsessed with him. Machu basically goes from treating him like a stranger to suddenly having a massive emotional breakdown over Nyan having seen the "kira kira" because it was just for her and him, to robbing the Pomeranians and threatening to shoot the team's sponsor to protect him... all in what's implied to be maybe a couple of weeks at most. It all seems to revolve around the "kira kira" too, which kind of suggests that this isn't natural... they're being brainwashed somehow.
