Studio Series Voyager Alpha Trion incoming... -
The ultimate VF-1 set. If I was to only have 1 VF-1 toy, this would be the one to have. Funny thing is I don't have one and I like Roy's color way better but there is no better all-around package than this one. I just settle with having hundreds of other Valks instead for now.😅

I did pre-order both the TV Rau and the VT-1 Gerwalk. Originally I had thought to order 2 of the VT-1 if it can be built 2 ways... but if it's just full gerwalk with arms out or half gerwalk with arms tucked, I think I can just stick with 1 copy. I'm not super enthused about green TV Rau since this would be my 4th Rau kit... but I do like the TV head better. I'm actually much more interested in the VT-1 gerwalk. Nice to see them expanding the gerwalk range. Lack of super parts on it kinda makes me think they won't be doing a VE-1 gerwalk, which is a shame. I know the back parts and head are different, but don't they use the same leg armor? Also, since this is modeled on a specific scene in the movie, and we never see the VE-1 transform in the movie, that also makes me think a gerwalk VE-1 is unlikely. Also: gerwalk VT-1 before VF-1D battroid. 🤪 Really hope they fill this gap in their battroid lineup after the plamax VF-1D battroid is no longer shiny and new. I'm a little surprised they're doing this gerwalk before expanding on the gerwalk VF-0 series... I hope the vf-0s w/ ghost sold well enough to guarantee more gerwalk VF-0 options. Would love a gerwalk VF-0D or VF-0A!

One of the Macross Option Decal sets from Hasegawa had markings for a nice alternate Super Ostrich scheme. Granted, those decal sets are hard to get now. I think it was an overall creamy beige schme with some unique squadron markings. Probably originated in Model Graphix?

Ironically, she and deluxe Alpha Trion, who I picked up at Target on impulse, are the only two TFOne toys that I intend to get thus far. Elita One was the only TFOne fig that I purposely ordered b/c I liked the look of the design enough to plunk a few ducats down. A3 was a little disappointing in his beast form, but I like the bot mode. For all these beast moded figs that use the back legs , at least from the knee down, to form the rear legs of the creature, I wish they'd add an additional joint that places the back leg to the animal's side allowing for complete 360 rotation of the hind quarter instead of just keeping them awkwardly in line with the rest of the robot leg. As for Elita, I think the level of engineering is fine given the size of her alt mode and the fact that she's on a deluxe budget. Could she be better, sure, but not unless they reinvent her on a higher budget with more complexity. -
I don't want to spoil anything, but the end of 28 Years Later has a rather strange twist featuring a very odd group of survivors modeled after a certain former British DJ and performer that ended up being a massive child predator and sex offender, it's weird.

Diggin the wild color schemes.
-
P3d0 rangers?
-
Oh yeah!!!! Looking good
-
Oof. Wonder how much. Edit* Just saw this for USA
-
Started knocking back the pre-shading on the Cat's Eye 👁️🗨️ and the Blackbird on Monday. I'm determined to make the SR-71 not just look BLACK... but like they do in reality...which isn't easy.
-
I see hlj will be offering unlimited storage in their private warehouse "for a fee" after October. I hope shipping becomes an option by then , I need my Hasegawa deculture!

Nice

Minor update. Wasn't super happy with the heavy stripes, so moved them out to the wings and used the suggestion of making "gills" to add some color and longitudinal emphasis to the body along with some more balancing to the leg colors. It's definitely a very...patriotic...scheme, and I'm still debating whether it needs more stripes or color on the back, but I kind of like it as it is. Suggestions/comments welcome.

Will the Pedo Rangers save the day? Tune in next time and find out, on 28 Years Later! Seriously though, no interest in this since it directly follows the last film, and that ending was awful.
-
Depending on the price I may grab a Toyrise, I don't like Mospeada and these designs enough to spend any real money on any of these other insanely priced figures.
-
YUP - My "Pile of Loot" still hung up at BBTS including Tread, Legioss re-issue & my first Sentinel ride-armor: pink Fuke...
-
The Toyrise Legioss looks fun. I'd be for one if it comes in at a reasonable price.

28 Years Later Part 2- The Bone Temple
-

The forearm gaps offend me, but I can fix those. I really like the color scheme. For a couple years now I’ve been toying with alternative palettes the would befit bases established on others planets. You know, headcanon stuff. This palette would go well for Neptune Base.
-
Know what?... I don't hate it but I don't like it enough to buy one.
-
The number of - let’s call them 5 mm mounting ports for the TFs fans - are out of control. I’ll buy 2 dozen units just to have enough guns to fill every port. 3 guns along each inner calf and thigh is gonna be stupid, but I wanna see it.
-
Thanks for that. Appreciate it.
