  1. Past hour
  2. Thanks Tking22. I appreciate your view on the situation. First, I'm flattered that you embraced my oxymoronic phrase, and also by the spirit in which you used it. 😄👍Second, I'll not judge anyone for liking what they like, and whether or not this new Predaking is "deliciously terrible" or not will be entirely up to you. You seem enthusiastic about it, and I hope it exceeds expectations. It doesn't interest me personally, so I have no opinion. However, toys exist to bring joy, and as an owner of many, many toys, I've been pleasantly surprised by some and disappointed by others for all sorts of reasons. My hope for you is that this is one of the good ones- pleasantly surprising, fun, aesthetically pleasing, enjoyable to handle. Finally, thanks for sharing this here, as there may be other members to whom it appeals that may otherwise have gone unaware. It's one of the things I enjoy about this forum, whether sharing the info or benefitting from shared info. (I'm generally on the latter side). I hope you didn't take my colorful critique of Takara and their approach to aircraft alt-moded Transformers personally, as I meant no affront to anyone, except perhaps, Takara themselves, and even that in a light-hearted manner. If I offended, I apologize. I stand by my critique, however, but it's just one insignificant guy's opinion and at the end of the day, it is of no import. As a Transformers fan since it began in 1984, Takara's work is a very important part of my life and I generally applaud and support what they do, though I do have my niggles from time to time. 😉 Cheers!
  3. Very cool ! So what does the qr code show?
  4. And that's specifically why I'm never getting it at $400. This thing should be $250 tops, but lego and licenees gonna price gouge.
  5. Today
  6. Rumoured a minifigure sits in it. Remember, these are 18+ display pieces, where scale and playability are irrelevant.
  7. Price doesn't seem too bad... in yen, anyway. Actual import prices will affect my final decision.
  8. Lol yeah I can't with stuff like that, far too much going on, never liked this combiner in the slightest. Lol let it go for once dude, I assure you, nobody cares that you're really into what Takara puts out. This is MW, you gotta accept it's not a TF site and more people will be critical of what Takara puts out, nothing wrong with that.
  9. Please post as many pics as possible, this one rarely gets seen
  10. While I was there for only a very short time, I managed to finally get one of the Experten 1/100 Variable Glaug kits. Well, actually, I have 2 now, but it took a while. This is a slightly complex kit, but I can't wait to start putting one together. VG purchase.jfif
  11. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/792414 Approx. 30 cm in combined mode, Release March 2026, 54,000 Yen. Props to Takara for pulling off that dynamic appearance from "Call of the Primitives" episode into toy form AND not compromising on articulation. I'll except that the individual bots are not quite at their best. I'm embracing this, so I guess that makes it a "deliciously terrible" Transformer. 😉
  12. I guess the Sv-51 makes sense after the VF-0A re-release, but I can't help but think the Tomahawk is just trying to fire a shot across Bandai's bow.
  13. Do you mean an actual shuttle that's bigger than a single brick? Because there is one there, mounted on the back of the main bay. I can't imagine they'd try to package a maximum of five parts separately. I really want to see a good view of the deflector array though. That's a challenging shape to get right in any medium, and the angles so far don't look great to me. I don't know. Maybe my standards are too high for complex shapes, but I feel like the recent Jango Slave I set the bar very high for complex shaping, and their more recent sets are not living up to that at all.
  14. The GWP apparently will be the shuttle.
  15. the colors from your pics look the best.
  16. Got mine from Amazon Japan. NO packing whathsoever but my copy was still good. It's BIIG
  17. @pengbuzzThanks for sharing. It’s wonderful to have such an amazing partner in life. ♥️ Working with yard debris. Making some dry environmental grass clumps. Good old white glue don’t fail me now. 😂
  18. I'll definitely check it out. Looks decent enough.
  19. IGN gave it a 9 which is relief but I didn't read the review to avoid spoilers. https://www.ign.com/articles/alien-earth-review
  20. It always amazes me how you can turn tape into something cool like that.
  21. I got so distracted by how the legs look like they’re falling off that I didn’t notice how the arms also look like they’re falling off
  22. @SteveTheFish "Build a doggy horse for me!' That is too cute! Just a peak into the Pengbuzz-level of awesomeness!
  23. These 2 popped up at HLJ 🤨 Destroid Tomahawk https://www.hlj.com/1-60-scale-mbr-04-mk-vi-destroid-tomahawk-macross-reissue-aca82160-3 Nora SV 51 https://www.hlj.com/1-60-scale-complete-transformation-sv-51-gamma-nora-polyansky-boarding-machine-final-battle-specification-macross-zero-reissue-aca82158-4 Oddly both to be released at the end ofo this month
  24. Agreed; I also don't like how the arms mount to the body there either. And the legs are just plain fugly...
  25. If you're looking for inspiration or want to explore a wide variety of paint by numbers kits, I highly recommend visiting Paint By Numbers. They have so many creative designs and options to choose from perfect for beginners and experienced painters alike!
