  1. Past hour

    That happened to me with my Mafex AoA Cyke and Weapon X. I submitted a ticket and was tikd there's a long queue and referred me to their website about the warehouse reshuffle. No apology about any of it. When I got an e-mail asking to review the help I got the next day I said I had paid for the item and shipping prior to the warehouse move, I had zero apology from the employee about the initial hang up or the new situation, and expect my package to be at the front of the queue. They shipped within 8 hours.

    The TV version started with two hard points per wing at the beginning of the series, when they were armed with four sets of three AMM-1 missiles. Then they switched to three hard points when they were carrying the reaction missiles. One of those inconsistencies in the TV series where they adapted things to what looked good, I guess. The Master Files books and the Hasegawa weapon set accounted for all this by showing five hard points on each wing.

    I usually painted the smoke on the outside to better hide and obscure the HUD lines.

    The response I got from HLJ is my order is in their shipping queue but their warehouse is undergoing planned operational improvement hence the delays in processing.

    Looks like I'll be at 6 31A's.

    Votoms Comprehensive Modeling Exercise 2025 is being held at this moment with even Bandai having a display there.... Sadly the ATM-09-GC Brutishdog in the middle of the display is not a Hi-Metal R version! But I'm sure it's coming soon! 🤗 and one of the coolest dioramas I've seen!

    I can see Nvidia doing that. What do they gain from releasing the Supers at all. They pretty much own the market as it is.

    The Chuck with the orange supers are just amazing! Is it too late to give up hope that they will release them separately instead of a bundled box?

    There hasn't been any mention of direct contact with the Supervision Army in any official media AFAIK. Macross 7 depicts the New UN Forces encountering the Supervision Army's creators/leaders (the Protodeviln) and fighting a war against what is essentially Supervision Army v2.0, but nothing is said of the original Supervision Army forces still fighting the Zentradi across the galaxy. It may be difficult, if not impossible, to distinguish a Zentradi force from a Supervision Army one at a glance though. The Supervision Army wasn't a bespoke army created from the ground up to fight for the Protodeviln the way the Zentradi were developed to be the Protoculture's army. The Supervision Army got its start as an ad hoc force made up of anyone and everyone the Protodeviln could capture, drain of spiritia, and mind control into doing their bidding and in their initial rampage across the galaxy their forces grew mainly by the simple expedient of doing the same to everyone they captured and making use of existing ships, weapons, facilities, etc. from those they captured. Most of their forces would have been captured and mind controlled Zentradi, and that's probably even more true in the modern day 500,000 years later. Their forces likely consist almost exclusively (if not entirely exclusively) of Zentradi clones using equipment produced in captured factory satellites. Aside from ship classes and some equipment that may have been unique to certain regions and Protoculture emigrant governments, their forces probably look almost exactly like the Zentradi at a glance. Since the New UN Forces practice a policy of "avoid whenever possible" when it comes to the "wild"/"lost" Zentradi roaming the galaxy, it's entirely possible they've detected several Supervision Army fleets and simply not stuck around long enough to tell them apart from the regular Zentradi.

    Hlj was also 1 per. Got mine last night.

    Unless otherwise noted, AE usually has limit-one policy. So you will usually see "sold out" once you placed your own order, but it'll still be open to others that haven't.

    Thank you Mog and Tekering. Can I apply the smoke paint inside of the visor instead of the outside?

    Nin-nin and HLJ are order stop, PO'd one from AE. Yen to USD is pretty good, so I don't mind ponying up one last time. I AM worried about the QC though. The 31 Siegfried/Kairos mold was great, but it was the assembly that made them the best Valkyries Bandai produced. Ever since COVID, it's been a crapshoot, and more bad than good. Still, this is the one I always wanted, with the LO paint and missiles in the legs. And holy cow, as I was writing this AE has sold out! PO madness, one.. last... time...

    May have already been asked, but with the millions of zentraedi ships and thousands of factory satellites constantly pumping out troops and war machines, I’d imagine the Supervision armies are probably just as numerous. And with the branching out of immigration fleets throughout the galaxy, has one ever come into contact with the supervision army on or off screen in any way other than just finding wreckage? And if so has the reaction been similar to the Zentraedi
  20. grogall
    but also sad that they didn't include the regress seat for the pilot, its not like its a huge part, so it should have been included....
  21. Big s
    This one is definitely set up for bar hopping in West Hollywood
  22. Big s
    I love The Hu, not to be confused with The Who or The Who’s Next although all of them have their good stuff
  23. Test_Pilot_2
    Snagged one at Nin-Nin... I had a mountain of Vouchers to throw at it so it canceled all the extra tariffs and shipping. Pretty excited as I really like this Kairos.
  24. Shawn
    Nice. Looks pretty standard so far, nothing 'new' jumps out. One more week until shipping, then another week until here
  25. Paco Grande
    Yes, that is what's happening. I managed to contact AE and cancel my DHL shipping request and they will hold it for me until Japan Post starts shipping again so that's a relief. The DHL shipping was going to cost me more than double EMS from what I can tell. I'm not sure how long AE will hold stuff for you, so hopefully EMS resumes soon.

    Rumor. But seeing RAM and NAND chip prices suddenly jump because of AI 🙄, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if Nvidia decided to delay the Supers in favor of AI production. 2 or 4GB chips are probably easier to produce in the quantities people (read; AI) want right now. https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-geforce-rtx-50-super-refresh-faces-uncertainty-amid-reports-of-3gb-gddr7-memory-shortage

    I still haven't seen Delta and don't really care about it, but I don't own a 31 yet and I love the paint scheme on this one. I'm not a fan of the graphics on the other Delta valks. Anyway it was really nice to be able to just casually buy this at retail from AE instead of the usual striking out on pre-order madness night and then paying way more later for the WWM release in North America. Very refreshing! It was like buying a Takara product! So easy.

    ah, thanks!
