    Kranix was available to order at Walmart so I ordered it there and cancelled at TCP. YMMV but I've had good experience with orders at Walmart. I've received every Retro G1 figure, Soundwave, and Megatron along with figures from other lines without any problems.

    I'm loving the Votoms line but agree we need a reason to be excited for more Macross products.

    It's getting to the point that I'm very upset of al the "fake teases" of the proposed HMR projects that never came into fruition and getting very picky just about every Bandai Macross related drops (nothing recently has grabbed my attention) . The last HMR Macross release that I picked up was the VF-0d and the non-Macross item was the Orguss.

    Lol , hopefully Kawamori San at least knew. Exactly! And my 1/144 Argama catapult deck is $170 to ship alone! That doesn't count the extra fees..

    Funny how in some scenes he's drawn with his shuttle tail hanging off of his back, which is contrary to his toy, and then in other scenes, no tail. Character montages like this really put a spotlight on how inconsistent and poorly executed the old toon was. For my part, I started losing interest in the toon in second season, and had completely stopped watching by third, so many of those eps are unknown to me. One thing this does show, however, is how much this new Astrotrain does not look anything like his animation model, which honestly, I'm fine with. I'd rather he was more toy-centric, but they didn't even manage that well. I think he fails to capture either look in any satisfactory way. Admittedly, I POed him out of a feeling that he's better, IMHO, than the Classics and Siege Astrotrain toys and is likely to be the best main line version we get for some time. He's not what I wanted, hoped for, or expected, but since there are no other CHUG+ scaled options (damn it third parties, seize the opportunity!), I reluctantly parted with my $60. I hope he's a fun toy at the very least, as he's winning no prizes for accuracy.

    I did the same thing. Shipped everything I had but the TV Rau. lol. Can’t bring myself to pay $90 to ship it

    I’m curious if many of the people actually involved with production really knew it was there
  15. Bolt
    True enough. I never noticed it until it was pointed out here a while back.

    Like treatment said, it's the VF-19 Kai and VF-19P for me. I'm ok with the HMR line being non-scale, but having the VF-19 be shorter than the VF-1 is like seeing Optimus Prime being shorter than Bumblebee in the same toyline. Their heights don't need to be exactly to scale, but they should be within the same ballpark. And the VF-19's long arms in battroid mode really do give it gorilla proportions. I've seen them on sale on Amazon for pretty low prices, but they're still an easy pass for me.

    Nona might be a long shot, but missile pack, that’s tough to say. Recolors for sure. Kamjin’s black green and the gold trim color variations are pretty easy, missiles are a bit of a long shot, but kinda a simple add on. Possibly a garage company will do an conversion if hasegawa doesn’t I’ve never seen line art and most people didn’t know it existed till on of the higher definition releases of the movie because you blink and you will totally miss it. I remember thinking those missiles were just hallway lights or something till a good snap of the pic popped up on one of these threads. Not sure if anyone really noticed it till then. That pack is super easy to miss even with a good copy of the movie, but once you know it’s there, it’s there every time you watch it after that.

    Remember that time Captain Kirk literally advocated for the literal devil? Fun times... and a much better episode than anything Starfleet Academy has brought to the table despite being cornier than a state fair. That's not a sonic weapon then, that's a gravimetric one that produces sound as a secondary effect. Oh, yes... the novel Forgotten History. Weird story, that one. Equal parts fix fic for a bunch of old TOS episodes like "Miri" and "The Omega Glory" and attempt to un-noodle the DS9-era DTI's noodle incident-induced loathing for James T. Kirk and his promotion to Admiral between TAS and the first movie. The life support belt - and personal forcefields in general - was a really short-lived concept from TAS. Same as a bunch of other actually pretty useful ideas like having automated defenses against being boarded. It's part of why I'm so very amused to see the humble life support belt back on top after a whopping 926 years.

    Ok, I will give them credit, Gene's an amusing addition, but I don't think anyone would have predicted someone releasing a Lucy action figure in this era. I don't even generally buy figures at all, but that is just funny enough a concept that I might bite. Though, I wonder if anyone would make a Desi Arnaz head to swap onto Gene... The tiny desktop Enterprise model is a nice addition too, especially now that they actually found it after being "misplaced" so long.

    When it comes to unnecessary and plot-derailing callbacks, continuity nods, crossovers, and cameos from Darth Filoni, you'd better believe that...

    So a small note from anyone getting that new Vader tie. If you ever want to get it back in the box, you may have to mod it before snapping the wings on. Got mine yesterday from a local source I had a gift card for, and in my enthusiasm at how massive it is, I slapped the wing panels on, and now they will not come off. The snaps looked about like what hold the E-Wing's wings on, but the wing panels are a kind of rubbery material, and once snapped in, the mushroom pegs will not let go. I stood on the panel and lifted the body with both hands, and nothing budged. The screws on the inner surface of the panels did nothing. I expect I would have needed to mod the pegs or sockets to let them snap in and out easier, but it's not happening now, so this monster is going to be sitting in my hobby room looming in the corner.

    I will certainly mod one of mine w a missile pack, if not . Is there any existing line art for that variant? The Quadoran- Ro would be awesome, but it's probably a long shot, no?
