    I'm probably the wrong person to ask, but I did take note that there were extensions is some scenes.. most likely directors cut. I did not notice any CG revamping like they did in the first one.

    This might be the first KC release that I am not really sold on. I even liked the Black and Gold and Black and Red versions of the VF-1S. I did get an order in, damn FOMO.

    I just caught the final showing of ST2 WOK at my local theater. A whopping 8-10 people tops in the showing, and more then I expected from going to see the first movie. This was the peak of the ST movies... they never were able to catch back up and it still holds up 40 years later.

    I'm kinda meh on this. I may end up with it anyway but not sold on this idea.

    I am waaay out of date on the Yamato Remakes.. I really liked 2199, and I have 2202 but I have yet to watch it. After that 2205.. lol

    While I think its pretty cool that someone is trying to resurrect a neat 80s toy line, I find the price point hard to swallow. Red Gullwing looks pretty cool, but a pre-order over $100? and normally $170? I don't see this line really going anywhere. Not trying to Poo-poo this, as I like the idea, but I'm out.

    I was recently gifted 2 ships from Eaglemoss that were larger in size, maybe XL not real familiar with this manufacturer. Both seemed to be fairly well made but had some obvious defects but nothing I would not expect from a mass produced item. I feel for my cousin though who was building the Enterprise D, or to be specific was collecting the volumes to maybe one day build the Enterprise D.

    So is anyone following anything this season? For me its mostly been a disappointment. Besides Overlord S4 and Danmachi S4 both are enjoyable so far. Overlord S4 is actually watchable unlike the dumpster fire that was S3. Danmachi is holding up on its own, I just get the feeling that so much is getting edited out for time. Speaking of anime's that are so heavily edited for time.. Utawarerumono MOT.. *heavy sigh* So much is missing, They are rushing so quickly that major points that occur early on that effect the story are just lightly skimmed over.. or just outright edited out. Even some of the comedy elements miss the mark because you can't tell a joke without context. I know its 28 episodes, and we are only 8 in but my hopes are largely dashed. If you liked any of this play the game. Seriously. Let's see what else.. oh yea this season's Isekai Trash.. Isekai Meikyuu de Harem wo... I realize that this is very early in the story but this is a good candidate for Creepiest anime of 2022. The whole Slave thing just turns this series sour.. not to mention the MC is outright Trash. Hataraku Maou-sama!!.. A 2nd season that they took way too long to bring out, and at this point its falling on its face. The 1st season was done much better, and the jarring disconnect is so bad. It does not help that this season has a very weak story arc. Kinsou no Vermeil... While not outright terrible, its not really that great either.. At least the MC is not a total pushover, as of Episode 7 that is. Kakkou no Iinazuke S2.. dropped. 1st season was OK, had my interest enough to read the manga. That killed it for me. Feel free to chime in if its worth picking back up again. Soredemo Ayumu wa Yosetekuru.. Well its amusing I will give it that, I think the side characters are more interesting then the main ones are. But if you like a light hearted Rom-com I can see this working. Saikin Yatotta Maid ga Ayashii.. Only 2 episodes in on this one. The group is watching this one, seems to be pretty light hearted with some comedic elements to it. If you like busty Older sister type maids who have a thing for Shota's then this is your time to shine. Prima Doll.. 3 episodes in and the group dropped it. If it gets better let me know. Key's string of bad Anime series continue. Hanabi-chan wa Okuregachi.. well its basically a series of shorts about several well known Pachislots.. Hanabi, Thunder, VS etc.. all getting turned into cute anime girls. If you go into it without much of an expectation you won't be upset. Another light hearted just watch and pass the time anime. Kumichou Musume to Sewagakari.. Another title the group picked up this season. On the fence with this, enjoyable but not sure where it is trying to go. The idol episode was great.. SHADOWS HOUSE 2nd Season.. Group is supposed to start watching the first season.. I hear good things. Summer Time Render.. Another one the Group has on its list, another one I hear good things about. I think Disney has this behind its paywall.

    The me of 5+ years ago would be pretty upset about this, I ordered from them almost exclusively and had a string of years where it got crazy how much $$ I spent with them. Then their customer service completely fell apart, because of this they lost my business and I literally cold turkey cut them off. As of late the only things I was getting from them were Right Stuf exclusives like Aniplex titles, and Sunrise items. They were literally the defacto anime distributor in the US. Sentai, Funi, Aniplex.. Sunrise, BigWest.. I would be curious if Sentai pulls out now that CR owns their distribution methods. RS at least packed their items like they gave a ****, unlike amazon where it was Wild West with how much protection things had.

    I personally want more of the SD valks. The SD GBP is pretty much why I am sticking around. Enemy Mecha and Destroids have my interest but the cloth figures.. not so much. As for the 1/72 valks so far minus some QA issues I like them, probably not going to get every release as they keep going up in price.
  11. Stampeed Valkyrie
    Nice, the fastpacks really look good on these toys.
  12. Stampeed Valkyrie
    Tossing this here since its abit Random. These pins are relatively recent, all from Udon I believe. Was trying to figure out a way to display and someone mentioned a shadowbox. Works pretty well.
  13. Stampeed Valkyrie
    Nice, I am hoping mine are good as well. I will try and dig them out this evening.
  14. Stampeed Valkyrie
    Since I am a sucker for SD stuff.. sure. Probably in for Frontier stuff at the minimum depending on price.
  15. Stampeed Valkyrie
    I will see if I can get to them this evening.. no time as of late. I order from KC directly so HK.. if you order from say BBTS they will come from the USA.
  16. Stampeed Valkyrie
    I don't think that they are, I agree that they are not Bandai 1/48 DXs but they aren't garbage either. I think they sit in a nice middle level, yes there are some QC issues as of late. However unlike Bandai.... KC is pretty good at addressing them. There is no debate that the Bandai DX is the better option, but the price is 2X or 3X or even higher in certain situations. KC does a pretty good job for their price points IMO. I still want to see more of the SD line though.. sigh

    @jvmacross Technically 2 separate boxes, both together in an outer sleeve which is the main artwork found in my first few pictures. The 2 individual boxes slide out like trays bundled in 1 overall box.

    So this arrived faster then I expected. I probably won't get these open for a day or 2, but I will try and go over them this weekend.
  19. Stampeed Valkyrie
    The company making these is called Kigomi.. https://www.facebook.com/Kigomi.hk/ You can get a full set of all 9 watches for about $350. Neat idea, blind box unless you buy a whole set.

    @Vifam7 I'll give it a shot, I went into it without any knowledge of the manga.

    It's been a few years since I watched welcome to the NHK. I don't remember it being that bad. Back from AX and doing my wrap ups. Shield Hero S2.. meh if that is all they animate then so be it. Kawaii dake ja Nai Shikimori-san - wrapped Ep 12 today. Overall I thought it was enjoyable pretty light hearted with a twist on expected rolls in relationships. Apparently did not fare so well with JP viewers so unlikely to see more. A bunch of new stuff obviously since Summer 2022. Lot's of things on my Radar now that things have started to drop. I am going to have to really try hard not to be critical of MOT..
  22. Stampeed Valkyrie
    I hear you on this one, I'll probably check mine out once I get them.
  23. Stampeed Valkyrie
    Yeah, I went ahead and did the same they are sending out what I need to fix my 1S Hikaru, along with my M&M order. I forgot to inquire about the V2 fastpacks.

    A couple of pics from the Tamashi Nations booth at AX this year.

    My find from AX this year. I went a little overboard on VF1 pins, since they were blinds. I think I have them all. The Macross Word Wide lanyard and pin was from the Tamashi Nations booth.
