    Take a look at the previous thread (1.0) there is some good information there. Honestly between this and Hi-Metal R valks these are probably your biggest bang for your $$. I have all the 1/72 releases so far, Fokker 1S, Black and Gold 1S, Black and Red 1S, and now Hikki's TV 1J. I haven't been disappointed yet. The SD valks however are still my favorite of KCs toy line.

    Well I got to Ep 10 on Monster Musume no Oisha-san. I can't comment on any similarities to Monster-musume as I haven't seen it. Yep there is some fanservice, and it does have some creep factor to it. But it's nowhere near the creep factor of say Eromanga Sensei level. It has been entertaining so far.. which is more then I can say for some other titles of late.

    I figured I would give Monster Musume no Oisha-san a try. Honestly, I am going into this not really expecting anything and the whole monster girls fad that hit never really caught my eye. However this series is not bad. Some creep moments 1 so far in every episode, but nothing that I would trash this series for. Admittedly I am only about halfway through the season but I have higher hopes for this then SNAFU season 3.. I don't understand the general disdain I see for this and Uzaki-chan. But it's 2020 and people are stupid.. oh well.

    I just got around to watching the Goblin Slayer movie Goblins Crown. Where to start with this one... first 27-30 minutes of the movie is a recap. Honestly complete waste of time, if your watching this movie and are not familiar with the events of the TV Series do yourself a favor watch that and come back. Because of this, at least in my opinion the movie feels very, very rushed. To be fair, I have read up to Vol 7 of the LN and I am dilly dallying on Vol 8 just like I am with all this seasons anime offerings.. so feel free to throw tomatoes. This movie is based solely on the events that take place during Vol 5. I have issues with this volume mostly because of pacing and what felt like the author was rushing to wrap everything up nice and neatly in 1 book. Pacing again is a problem, partially because of the 30 minutes wasted on a recap when the movie is only 1:25 in runtime. There are things omitted, and plot elements that are very lightly glossed over, without spoilers how the Goblins are acting, and why Goblin Slayer is taking notice of them. Again hard to really point out specifics without spoilers, the abridging of Noble Fencers story and the events leading up to the letter sent out by Sword Maiden I found to be the most egregious. Actions are taken, and events transpire with little or no background, while the novel at least took the time to fill the reader in on Goblin Slayers mindset. So with all that said.. it still was not a BAD watch. I thing the TV series covered the events of the first and part of 2nd novel better (just out of order) the movie omitted much and I think that hurt the plot. But in the end there were still plenty of dead goblins and much fun to be had. 6 out of 10, maybe a 7 if I really stretched it out.

    Fast Packs, and TV Hikki 1J just arrived today. Not a bad turnaround for international shipping. Will get a better look at it when I get a chance, but from what I have seen so far I'm happy with it.

    While I enjoyed Tylor, I can't say I $200 enjoyed Tylor. Plus lets be honest RS has re-released this title I think like 5 times in the past. With at least one of those times supposedly limited edition.. wink, wink, nudge, nudge. So the realist in me says.. wait and it will get another SUPER DUPER Edition release, and then clearance. And is there any information on what is getting done to the source? this is a series from 1992, Blu-ray doesn't mean anything other then a larger storage medium. If the picture quality is not changing I will stick with my DVDs for sure.

    My period of Anime stagnation continues. I caught up on Maou Gakuin no Futekigousha.. or at least to Ep 9 and I am just kinda meh on this one. I am slowly gaining ground on SNAFU S3, just starting Ep 5 now. Ep 4 may have just torpedoed the series for me, I see where this is going and I don't like it. waaaaay behind on everything else..
  8. Stampeed Valkyrie
    I'll probably have to dust this off and give it a go again. I spent more time with the AC5 pre order bonus then I did with AC7

    I just got an email stating KC shipped my 1J Super and Roy Fokker Figure.

    November 2020 as per Flying Mule's website.
  11. Stampeed Valkyrie
    The first of my Flying Mule orders have started to roll in...
  12. Stampeed Valkyrie
    Well at least with the website redone I am not getting malicious Java script prompts anymore.. yay! I am not much for anything RT outside of Macross, but the Dana figure looks interesting if that is your thing. My understanding is that there isn't really any merch for Southern Cross out in the wild so why knock it? And for those with a good eye... the SD Armored 1J says coming 2021... woo!
  13. Stampeed Valkyrie
    So what is the difference if any between the SDCC Stealth VF-1 and the one listed on FlyingMule. Thanks for the heads up about the pre-order coupon. It was just heavily used... lol

    Having just finished Utawarerumono Prelude to the fallen.. aka the 1st of the trilogy on the PS4. I figured I would go back over the ADV release of Utawarerumono and see what the differences were. The anime so far is mostly correct, but it does leave out abit of detail that would make the story make more sense at the end. Comparing this to MOD or False Faces.. they will need to retcon the ending because its radically different from the game events. Especially if they are planning on animating MOT which was announced.

    So I am finally getting around to watching Sakura Wars The animation. Or whatever they are calling this last installment. I'm not sold on it, I don't like the CGI, and they changed the character designer and things just feel off. I am also willing to bet they blew most of their animation budget on a very Gundam like launch scene. It's been some time since I have gone back over this title, so my memory is kinda sketchy but I hope this first episode isn't the Best episode.

    This is really cool. I have a Jamma board for this game, and every blue moon I'll hook it up and give it a go. I just picked up a dead Arcade 1 up cab, I was going to turn it into a MAME cabinet.. putting Vinyl for this on it would be pretty sweet.
  17. Stampeed Valkyrie
    ahhh yes DS9.. you can toss out all the seasons up until Worf comes onboard. Then the series actually gets interesting.
  18. Stampeed Valkyrie
    I am on Ep7 of Hamefura.. and I must say this is better then I expected it to be. I'm not gonna rave about it, but it's kept my attention for 7 episodes. If it keeps the same pace, I would consider this to be a success.
  19. Stampeed Valkyrie
    That strike valkyrie print is bad A**.
  20. Stampeed Valkyrie
    Good series, I agree. You should check out Outlaw Star if you haven't already.
  21. Stampeed Valkyrie
    I am on Ep3 of Kaguya S2. Definitely holding its own with S1. I was going to start watching the new Sakura Wars anime.. prepping for the worst as I have been warned.
  22. Stampeed Valkyrie
    ACK!! Avoid! Well at least you have seen the series, but the movie was bad,
  23. Stampeed Valkyrie
    so besides BBTS and or ebay.. are there any other shops handling this.. similar to KC has their own site?

    About a year ago, I managed to snag the JP Blu-ray release of DYRL. They really made the colors pop on this release, which in turn brought out a ton of detail that was missed in earlier viewings.

    Needs more Cowbell.. That video was pretty neat, the music from that series always stood out more then the series itself. And while I understand its continuing popularity.. as a whole I thought CB was good .. and did have several outstanding episodes.. real folk blues pt 1 and pt 2 being good examples of this. It's also a good example of a title that has a good dub cast, this and Hellsing are on my dub shortlist. Unfortunately I can't say the same for most titles anymore. Finished a rewatch of Rascal Does not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai "Seishun Buta Yarō". I stand by my original observation that the movie Rascal Does Not Dream of a Dreaming Girl completely changes the overall tone of the series. And while that is not necessarily a bad thing its enough of a disruption that some viewers might not like the direction it takes. Overall though I would give it a solid 9/10 Next on the way is What Do You Do at the End of the World? Are You Busy? Will You Save Us? or SukaSuka as it's called by fans. This series left an impression on me when i first came across it a year or so back. I am gonna give it a re watch to see if it holds up.
