  1. Past hour
  2. I hope SS TFTM Grimlock still gets reissued. My Target seems to keep getting stock. If not that many toys are on the shelves that just means other collectors in my area already bought them. So far I've found Jazz, Air Raid, Slingshot, Bonecrusher, and Scrapper.
  3. Yeah, the power of dogsh*t-tier writing is a pathway to many plot developments some consider to be unnatural. That said, in Star Wars, I think we've only seen one person actually return from death and that was just recently. Emperor Palpatine and Mother Talzin both tried to avoid dying for real by using the dark side to turn themselves into the undead. Palpatine used the dark side to anchor his mind to his dead-and-rotting corpse like a classic voodoo zombie or a lich. Talzin used the dark side to turn herself into the galaxy's nastiest lingering fart, existing as a vampiric mist made of "magical ichor". Both of them needed to feed on the life energy of other people to regain a functional body and avoid dying for real. Boba Fett just pulls a "reports of my death-by-felching in a giant anus monster in the desert were greatly exaggerated" since he suffers a classic Disney villain "death" offscreen during Return of the Jedi. Dedra Meero... well... her ticket is likely to get punched in a less survivable, more verifiable manner.
  4. 1/60 would probably between the two sizes of the Gakken 1/55 Legioss toys and around the size of an HMR if Bandai ever made one. The 1/55s were nice for their time and I can see something that size updated in sculpt with full 3 mode transformation work.
  5. New Bandai HG Scopedogs shown at the Hobby Show in Japan! What kind of AT is the left one? Looks really interesting!
  6. Preordered the set with Kurtwood Smith autograph at 10:03 AM PST. It will go well with my NECA Alex Murphy signed by Peter Weller. Looks like the set will come with the cigarettes. Shipping to the US was only $60. Looking forward to adding the figures to my Robocop collection.
  7. Did anyone ship to the US from ShowZ? Are we being hit with crazy tariffs?
  8. Pre-orders are open now. https://www.jfstoys.com I was lucky to procure a Clarence signed by Kurtwood Smith, but the international shipping cost alone is over $100 for the five... 🤕
  9. Today
  10. So what I’m hearing here is that mine could be shipping soon??
  11. I believe this is one of the designers accounts https://x.com/sakichooboys https://www.instagram.com/sakichooboy/ The same team of Aramaki, Lil Golem, and Marcy from Sentinel will be commercializing this figure at 1/60 scale through T-spark Toyrise. We focused on making it easy to play with, transform, and expand. We plan to release many more in the future. https://x.com/sakichooboys/status/1922596757168374217 1/60 scale seems really really small for the Legioss doesn't it? Maybe if they don't make the transformation complicated like the Riobot 1/48 they could pull it off
  12. These look like they might actually be enjoyable, in a "play with toys, don't just look at them" way, and I'm there for it.
  13. I'm seeing a lot of posts on several sites from new fans just discovering Macross. I know most of the people on here probably already have these toys but it's always nice to encourage new fans into collecting these toys.
  14. You must have forgotten that as great as Andor was...it's still "Star Wars"......a franchise where characters can return from even death.....somehow
  15. So maybe the elbow piece should have been molded into upper and lower parts? Maybe it can rotate and it just isn't being posed correctly? Either way not really an eyesore to me, I'm more dissapointed in the metallic paint job....it's like KC thinks the customers who PO'd the regult with the pilot back in 2022 are being rewarded with a metallic variant...
  16. The Regut Scout is the next one...so not really concerning to me....I'm more concerned on the final cost on all this stuff and the shipping, especially for those who already pre-paid for several items during the Kickstarter...
  17. I left my A Rank Party...etc turned all harem-y. It was pretty harem-y to start but I'm losing interest. So instead I started watching Country Bumpkin to Swordmaster. First episode starts off with expectation of harem-again but the MC doesn't roll that way. 7 episodes in I'm enjoying it. Female characters outnumber the male characters revolving around the MC but it's not all fawning and the story arcs are quick and fun. Fire Force. Yup still following the manga. The future arcs/fights are going to be wild.
  18. Yesterdays episode felt very Fifth Element but Gatwa went HARD against the villain. Ms Flood's revealed! Also going to miss next weeks episode. Ugh.
  19. Makes sense. I’ll give it a go when it’s time to finish this up.
  20. A good dramatic story could be so much better than just a string of exposions and superfast action squences, just to use Bay's Transformers as a comparison. Don't get me wrong, I do like Gunn's films, the earlier GoTG movies especially. But that Superman trailer looks like it's going to have a dozen villlains, or enough flashbacks for a dozen movies. That being said, this could be a real good film. There are sequences that I really like, but some have me worried. Krypto bouncing all over a badly wounded Supes just for the LOLs is one of them. Cheapening a dramatic scene just for laughs could seriously hurt the tone of the film, and Gunn has done that before. The scene from GoTG, when Quill gets the others to help him defend Zandar and Rocket comes out with his a-holes line. Funny, yes, but it was a gag moment at the expense of an emotional scene when the team is finally pulling together. Different movie, but the same thing happened in the first Dr Strange. The moment he decides to stand and fight is really cool scene with him drawing on the cape and then looking into a mirror - and then the cape starts trying to caress his cheek. A dramatic moment cheapened by the gag. I hope he hasn't started leaning on it like a crutch - rather than growing past it.
  21. Super glue is a little risky because if you build it up too much, it can be a pain to sand back down. It’s also more solid and can wear out a bit sooner. While something like a bit of gloss can be almost rubbery and give a little grip. I’d suggest an acrylic though since it won’t glue the parts like a lacquer might. And the gloss can always be reapplied if things do wear down. Just thin it with a bit of water and let it drip into the joint
  22. Have you messed with super glue to build up those friction areas? I imagine once a pose is established I will leave it be for the most part.
  23. I just used a little extra paint into the joint there. Gloss works pretty good as well, but those methods will only work if it’s not played with too much
  24. An interesting topic - What do May'n sings at Karaoke? (2 pages) https://www.animatetimes.com/news/details.php?id=1747203003&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=ranking_20250518_07&fbclid=IwY2xjawKWxk9leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBicmlkETFpampSQ1cwdjFueW9oWVdGAR6ZnsjHh6l6R2deAl_GIPvzqbm1sDqqewWWkB0_3qkLoZmWF6M_JaDGWFRrmg_aem_TMqLyts_zLyC7YlcgrKt5A From Page 2. The Karaoke management announced that they have only 5 minutes left. Let's sing Phonic Nation! May'n loves her own song! XD A special collab with Animate stores
  25. This is for everyone planning to go to Japan in the future. The air line I took to Tokyo no longer issue the white form (Immigration) and yellow form (tax declaration) before they land. The forms are now at the airport. If your plane lands at close to midnight, it's going to be chaos! I see people frantically filling in the forms while lining up to clear customs. A better way is to go to this site : https://www.vjw.digital.go.jp/main/#/vjwplo001 Open an account. Fill in the details, scan your passport. Your current trip will be like a project. On your next trip you just start a new project - you don't hv to fill again details with regards to the passport. Once you submit, you'll get a QR code. A screen shot of the QR code is accepted by the immigration officer. Just do this as soon as you have your Flight No. and Hotel booking confirmed. Do you clear immigration faster? NO! You're still thrown together with those with the manual forms, just less PANIC.
