  1. Past hour
  2. Yay! I won't lose any sleep then.
  3. BBTS is always one of the last retailers to ship, often months behind the others. But they'll come through.
  4. Good to know. But I don't even care about the tariff stuff. I'm just worried about them not getting any Treads, or not getting enough.
  5. Probably have to look at their fine print about tariffs and the such. And about preorder prices (and if they can change the price due to increased costs on their end). Totally spitballing and assuming here, but technically, BBTS is bearing the costs of importing and shipping the goods into the US. Shipping from their warehouse to each customer would be the cost beared by each customer, right? Whether they decide to pass those additional shipping and tariff costs (getting the goods into the US) onto their customers would be up to them. Again, total speculation on my part. 🤷‍♂️
  6. Today
  7. I just started collecting Transformers again due to the recent tariff situation in the U.S. I've managed to gather a complete Studio Series Devastator, Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Grimlock, and Sludge. I'm impressed by them considering they aren't $200+ Masterpiece figures.
  8. so far getting a physical copy for switch is getting the multi language region free import with an english cover option https://www.play-asia.com/super-robot-wars-y-multi-language/13/70ifpf
  9. Any word on a physical copy of Super Robot Wars Y yet? Preferably for the Switch?
  10. Paid for the Legioss reissue at AE, so I'll ship it with the Tread.
  11. Ugh, more than a month away. I've been coping with BF4 but its not the same...
  12. Get the two seater. Its yours and not the children's! Having kids and in a back seat means there will eventually be barf back there, lol. Sucks more if it happens in a 4-seater luxury or sports car which is why we transport them in a Subaru. Subaru is made for kids and dogs, haha.
  13. Porsche is working on an electric Cayman which sounds fun to me though I can just feel the side eye from my ICE purist friends.
  14. Despite being slightly longer and nearly as heavy as my wife's EV9 it doesn't feel as big as that does. It definitely feels bigger than a Porsche, though. But yeah, in the future I'll either go back to one car, probably a Taycan 4S with the optional Active Ride upgrade, or if I continue the two car thing I'll maybe swap the Taycan for an even funner Porsche like a Boxster and get something like that BMW i4 for a daily (cannot stress enough how much I enjoyed that test drive).
  15. Anyone else have the Tread on preorder from BBTS? I haven't heard anything and I'm wondering if they'll be able to honor my preorder.
  16. Shame on you for not getting a AWD Porsche, lol. I learned that lesson too many times where I live, ugh, and will never go back to RWD. Sucks about the Dodge QC issues. I think it looks cool af from the front but its so massive that its like a boat to me. For the size I might as well get a Hummer EV but I won't do that either, haha.
  17. Thankfully the other figure had all of its accessories accounted for. Here’s a family photo for all modes. Of all the modes and for some aesthetic reason I like the tank mode. Maybe perhaps I don’t get to see it in that variable that often.
  18. Perfectly stated! My feelings precisely!
  19. Just because it was bugging me, here are some corrected versions of the group with the decals fixed. 😉 Also, forgot to say earlier, that kind of pursuing what we had talked about way upthread, that these schemes really highlight the difference between the VF-31 and other planes. The 31 is a super cool plane, but it really doesn't look like a fighter, whereas something like the 25 or even the 171 does. There's an aggressiveness to the 25 that the 31 doesn't have. The 31 looks more like a racer, so these VFG schemes end up suiting it better than a more "realistic" color set does, which is what made me want to make these in the first place. The color schemes themselves might not be the greatest, but this bright, flashy approach suits the lines of the plane much better than a typical grey or white does (in my opinion).
  20. I cracked open the Megahouse Orguss Olson Special and the contrast between the original release and this re-release is quite distinct. The less saturated teal color release is not at all reflected by the packaging’s representation of the figure all over the box which is misleading for consumers. Not to mention, the packaging for all the accessory tray didn’t include one of the hands. Really frustrating when you pay for a premium product and you get a partial of what was promised. I don’t know if NinNin’s return policy is another round of frustration.
  21. We mainly meet online every other month through video. A new meeting date will be posted soon. Check out the FB group for all info.
