  1. Past hour
  2. The extra head in that bundle could actually be the one with the white goggle. Only in very rare instances the TV armored VF-1J is presented with a white goggle.
  3. Promo poster for Vol.IV Long Thoughts LP. It is a oddity for sure.
  4. I don't have either and wouldn't mind owning one of them. The Studio Cell figure does look great and I was considering getting one, simply because the Haslab one is way too expensive now. From what I've seen on YouTube, the Studio Cell Unicron isn't easy to transform either though.
  5. If it's the 1J Hikaru again they should make it a TV super bundle with a TWE Miria in a similar set up being available a month later...
  6. Today
  7. They already did this with the GBP-1J Bundle set.
  8. If Bandai is going to pull one more of this dumb moves at less they should throw in a grey goggle head like yamato did back then.
  9. Definitely watching in B&W first.... Looks good, trailer tomorrow ...how bad can it be?...it stars Nick F'ing Cage....lol
  10. Interesting, and it'd have to be a titan class fig to do it any sort of justice. Thus far, the only titan that's been announced is Bayformers Grimlock. I have the Haslab, and it does the job for me, although, in hindsight, I think I should have gone with the Studio Cell figure instead. It's not as big, but its transformation is far, far more elegant and integrated whereas the Haslab just has huge stacks of panels on his legs and back. If indeed a Studio Series Unicron is coming, I figure it'll be a scaled-down version of the Haslab.
  11. Let me think like Bandai for a sec: Tease a really popular valk with a great attachment: VF-1 Atmospheric-Escape Booster. Get the fan base excited to pre-order it. next: start exploiting the same fans by selling TV red tipped reaction warheads exclusive to a super Roy TV VF-1S w/ Hikuru figure and charge $550. Release Tv Max 1a with animation error removal-able vertical stabilizers stacked with missiles but troll fans and omit tv 1a kakazaki. Chogokin vf-1 are solid 1/48 yamato's version 2 toys. love them chogokin vf-1's but hate the company's schemes to nickel and dime the fans. Bandai will release a really good product for a good price, then exploit by nickel and dime with small items omitted. then reprint the main hero valk while omitting other valks on purpose to string fans along. Bandai launched Metal Build lineup with 00 Exia in 2011, from 2011 to 2026 never gave the entire 00 lineup or at least complete the main 4 hero suits. reprinting exia or 00 raiser till people stopped caring. I still love Yamato they produced full vermillion and skull squadron without playing these games. Yamato gave us fan made customs as the 1/48 vf-1a low viz and the city urban camo. Love Yamato/Arcadia as a company, we'll have to wait till 2027-2028 for their next release.
  12. More Hi Metal goodies from Madarake Wanted to display an armored VF-1 along some brownies but realized that the bright white hands of the TV latest releasd GBP would pop up too much with the of white of the 1As. Grabed this one for cheap, 8k yen. Max is my first Hi Metal toy. There is a VF-1S strike and a Hikaru that I want to get but will have to wait for the next month. Hope they don't sell out. Lol. And as abonus for my display I scored one of these trident plus stands. Also... count up to 20. One sealed and one opened. I noticed that as per January 1 Mandarake pushed the price of a sealed Hi Metal R VF-1A from 16k to 17k yen.
  13. Yesterday
  14. Looks decent - between this Supergirl and Mando I might actually get to the theater multiple times this year.
  15. I really hate this one. I still like the mobile suit underneath, but wish they had a good designer to create the outer armor instead of just slapping trash around it
  16. That’s cool. I’ll probably watch it in Black and white first and then check out the color version if the show is good. From the images the color ones look kinda like 80’s movies rather than something modern.
  17. Well, it did have some corny moments - or twelve!
  18. It’s the same trick with the Mr color super metallic 2 silver. I guess certain metallic paints turn to a chrome when super thinned. I hear it doesn’t work on every color, but certain ones it does and makes a durable mirror like finish.
  19. Oh yeah! I can't believe how good those kits are!!! I'm still waiting for this Tie Bomber to make it in 1/72 scale from Bandai. No more AMT kits for me, I think I still have PTSD from the 80s-90s doing their Star Trek kits
  20. I hear you! Be comfortable within your own collecting needs. Just collect what you want and not what others tell you what you should have.
  21. Iron Man Mark VII (Battle Damaged).
  22. Really wish Bandai wouldn't have abandoned their Star Wars ships line. Those were the best kits and there were sooooo many more to get to! 😭
  23. Seriously who even is in charge of which ships get produced in what scales now? Is it too much to ask to just get someone with half a brain to produce a complete line in a scale that actually makes sense? And by "makes sense" I mean to actually look at the sizes of the pilots and scale the ships by that, instead of some half-cooked stat sheet pilfered from the annals of old RPG rulebooks. Like it actually drives me bats that the most complete and (mostly) accurate collection (minus a few insanely notable exceptions) is the MGS line.
  24. Coming along nicely. I honestly don't even remember those scenes with the workroid lol. You aren't realizing you are addressing yourself for me, with the exact same information I am basing my idea on. lol I did not mention bending time. I said tampering with the time component of a force, with what ISC already does. Exactly by displacing inertial forces for a short time. Once again, I was giving the example of an unarmed cargo ship, cheaping out on security, fending off space pirates and hungry monsters. Nobody is out to shred, melt, and delete the ship itself. It's already a universe with humanoid/bipedal robots, that take their little hands and fingers into space, despite being up against the same beam cannons and missiles. If even forklifts can dance, I think we are already past the point of worrying about the finest details of realism here. lol
  25. I'm not a "True 1/6 collector" as what some 1/6th collectors might say as I have approximately 20 1/6 figures in my collection since I've caught the the bug in 2018 @shazam. I'm very picky and I get what I like and that's that. I don't have deep pockets like Justin, Jedha Patrol, Kazuma or any of the "toxic shilling" influencers that love to show off everything that they have and brag to say "You have to get this and this for your collection just to be liked by others.
