Official solicitation pics, pre-orders to follow. Edit: For those who have much deeper spending habits (like Justin and to show off his collection so that everyone can go Gaga over his dolly collection). -

I think the 171 was always supposed to have the single port, but it moved up to the top of edge of the shoulder plate in fighter mode, since the shoulders were compressed so much. Man.. I went looking for scenes in Frontier where they might have used those ports, but got sucked into just watching a bunch of episodes. Time for a rewatch, clearly.

Your Most Recent General Toy Purchase - 2024 Edition
Mog replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
So, I wound up getting a few more 25th Joes: The last of major ARAH female Joe I was still missing; and The more “realistic”/military-colored Blowtorch. Darkened the tip of Blowtorch’s flamethrower just a little bit. But yeah, elbow articulation on the figure is definitely limited due to the sculpt. Damn near impossible to do any good two-handed poses. Jinx, on the other hand? Very easy to pose out.- 804 replies

Crap. I meant to say George Miller, not Frank Miller. I always get those two mixed up. 😄

It's not just Hasegawa, but rather an industry standard. I worked at Aoshima for about 8 months, 9 years ago. I was introduced to a lot of that sort of strategy. Look at their Knight Rider KITT models or their Back to the Future Delorean models. They've issued many variants of these two cars alone. Season 1, 2, 3, and 4 for KITT, then the same molds released as a pre-painted KARR, some with the LED front scanners. The Delorean had models of all three versions (actually, there were four versions since the 3rd movie had both the white-rimmed '50s tires version and the train track version). Some with figures, some with photoetch. And they've re-released an all-new tooling of the Delorean, and made it so that a stand-alone, non-time machine Delorean kit could be released (making many happy). Bandai does the same thing, as does pretty much every other model company. My Academy F-14A Tomcat "Pukin' Dogs" kit has variant parts to make the B and the D, it seems. Just re-release the same kit with decals for a different livery and there you go. It's why you get unused, leftover parts on the runners with the kits you build. The mold toolings are the costliest investment, so if you can release different kits using little or no new toolings, you can maximize your profit. At Aoshima, we were hoping to do an all-new tooling for the Mad Max Interceptor, and if we could've gotten the license then I'm sure it would've been retooled to make both the black Interceptor and regular yellow/blue pursuit cars, plus the modified version from the 2nd movie. Who knows? Maybe even a stand-alone Ford Falcon model car. Alas, I was given a definite "NO" from the movie studio. Frank Miller refuses to allow his works being licensed. He probably saw too many Jar Jar Binks pajamas and the whole nightmare of Star Wars licensing and refused to go down that route.

Thanks @Graham this is illustration is the cleanest image of the VF-17. esp. the underside of fighter, seeing how wide legs could be stored underneath...

Nichimo 1/200 Regult Tactical Pod Combo Pack
SteveTheFish replied to cfernandez's topic in Model kits
Nichmo re-released their 1:200 scale Macross kits about 25 years ago, but this time gave them stupid, monochrome stickers rather than decals as they did before. I read the Japanese instructions and it's like they're telling you that they're doing you a favor because you get to now color those stickers as you wish. Very glossy stickers too. Ridiculous. They came with two in a package. I bought two Destroid sets off of YAJ only to discover that they came with those absurd, unusable stickers. They are to-scale with the Imai Monster that Bandai repops every once in a while. I'm very curious whatever happened to the toolings for those now that Nichmo is no more. -
My kid still watches the first movie and likes Springfield and The Simpsons Ride at Universal Studios. Will most likely watch this movie for kids.

The first 6 seasons of The Simpsons was legendary IMO. After that, it wasn't really the same anymore, very hit & miss with one good episode and one mediocre. The Simpsons movie 2007 was the last time I really enjoyed the show. By 2010, I stopped watching all together.

Yeah, that’s about when I tuned out. I still contemplate watching it, but have never gotten past the classic episodes of the first decade.

I only remember a colored prototype of the fatty, not sure on the 21.

Did Bandai ever shown even a gray/unpainted prototype like with both the HMR Fatty and the DX YF-21?
