    I selected paypal the first time but I never got to choose the credit card and no money has come out of any of my cards on paypal.I didnt make a billing agreement and I cant sign it they are doing maintenance

    Did you get an email confirmation from HLJ for your order? If not, maybe it didn't go through... If you did get one, you'll probably get another email asking for payment.

    I have a much easier time transforming this VF-25 than Yamato's VF-1 v2. Am I the only one? :blink:

    I would say that would be justified. I'm deathly afraid of transforming my VF-1S v2 sometimes. The shoulder hinges are prone to cracking, and not too long ago for me, the swing bar was stuck, really stuck, so it was impossible to transform it into battroid mode. Not to mention, getting that bar in and out of the enclosed compartment above the front landing gear has always been difficult for me (even after successfully loosening the bar).

    Who else is watching Fate Zero? This series has some serious S-level battle sequences...

    I saw the trailer for this recently and it looked so good I thought it was a movie at first. So I watched the first episode today -- Not sure about the story yet but the visuals are great

    I'm five episodes in, and so far I feel it's much better than what the first couple episodes let on. It has its share of conventions you expect to see, but all that seems to get eclipsed by the main character himself and his interactions. To me, he feels really fleshed out.

    Still in stock here...

    Oh, I do know that they still have it in stock (and probably the lowest price at the moment).

    But yeeeeah, what I really meant to say was "I missed the chance to preorder at a more discounted price, so I really don't want to pay a little more. Plus, now that I know that super packs are exclusive, I'll just (hopefully) wait till they bundle both the packs and valk for a future release at that time's discounted price."

    Or I'll just simply say that I just don't feel it's a right time for me to purchase a valk right now :unsure:.

    My thought process is weird (or maybe I'm just stupidly weird in all)...

    Maxfactory's Figma Line

    Photo?

    You can buy certain parts from Amazon.jp I believe. You could try contacting Goodsmile to sell/ship you a replacement, but I don't think that'll happen.

    Another alternative is to find a 1:12'ish scale 3rd-party joint that would fit a figma and frankenstein it. HLJ.com should have quite a few.

    You know, this is what I would love from Kaiyodo and Goodsmile, bundle extra joints with their figures. Those joints shouldn't cost them that much to put in a few.

    Didn't think I would be watching much anime this time around but I guess I was wrong.

    What I have been watching,

    Fate/Zero

    Guilty Crown

    Ika Musume 2

    Last Exile, the Silver Wings of Fam

    Shakugan no Shana Final

    Fate/Zero gives me just about everything that I wanted to see in Fate/Stay Night. Simple as that.

    Guilty Crown is not all too impressive to me other than high production value from Production IG and well-incorporated cliches--Hey, hey, I've seen this somewhere! Not to mention, the character designs are by Redjuice who did a bit of Vocaloid artwork (Well-known for his "World is Mine" Miku). Music is also done by Supercell.

    While I like what I see in Last Exile Fam, I have never watched the original Last Exile--I think I should remedy that soon. So, what references and allusions, if any, did I overlook in Fam?

    Shana: loltwist.

    Kaiyodo Revoltech 2G Thread

    I just got my Vash the Stampede today! He's sizable and fun to pose! Coat tails are still finicky it seems.

    How cute, also the scaling going on here is hilarious to me.

    I lol'd.

    To be honest, I wasn't really expecting Finding Nemo to be the next thing Kaiyodo would be turning into a revoltech.

    Ace Combat: Assault Horizon

    So I preordered the game very early on, and just a month from release, I got my hands on the demo. Canceling order! Except that I didn't... Go me for forgetting to cancel and go Amazon for shipping early, I now have a sealed copy (still packaged) sitting on my printer. I'm still deciding whether or not I should keep the darn game...

    From what I've been reading and watching, multiplayer is where the game really shines...

    and here's a little bit of fail...

    A shame that the game doesn't support flight sticks.

    Read some reviews about Steins Gate and am cautiously interested. Care to share your thought on it?

    When I first watched it, I wasn't exactly too interested since the main character was way too oddball for me. Didn't really help either that the series started off slow too. But after awhile and some pushing from an online friend, the character and the rest of the cast started growing on me, then I started enjoying the anime.

    While the basic premise seems familiar, the anime definitely has some nice twists to its story. I say you should give it a try, it's almost at the end anyway.

    Any one pick up Deus ex human revolution

    Yup. I wasn't really planning on getting it on release date, but my brother convinced me at the last minute. I have never played any of the prior Deus Ex games, so it's a blind jump for me. But so far, I'm blown away just by simply watching my brother play (he gets first dibs anyway). There's so much to like and very little to dislike about the game.

    Unlike Mass Effect, I like how they show you what you're really going to say (I sometimes misinterpret the dialogue choices in ME and come across as a jerk rather than a nice guy). The sometimes randomized dialogue is a nice touch too.

    I do have some nitpicks with the game, but they're more superficial.

    It's not one of the most graphically impressive games out there (would've been nice though), but the art direction and details make up for it and beyond.
