  1. Loved the Hobbit as a kid. First read it when I was 9 and re-read it a few times since. Probably about due for another re-read. Dunno why, but I'm just not at all pumped up about this movie, probably beacuse the LotR movies didn't really do much for me. Maybe my tastes have changed over the years, but I'm far more excited about seeing the upcoming Expendables 2 and Dredd movies. Graham
  2. Well, finally got this game installed and running and and been playing a few times over the past week, but extremely disappointed in this game. I was hoping for something like MUF/MTF, which current gen Android phones are easily capable or running, but instead we get something that comes across like some extremely amateurish Flash shooting game from 5+ years ago, where most of the times poor as it is , you are not even shooting, just click, click clicking on onscreen menues.........yawn. Compared with current generation state-of-the-art Android games, such as Batman The Dark Night Rises, Modern Combat 3, N.O.V.A. 3, Dead Trigger or even older Android games, such as Silpheed Alternative, Destroy Gunners SP, or H.A.W.X. it is really, really bad. Uninstalling. Graham
  3. Cleared my cache and data and then re-logged in and was able to play the game. However, I have to say, compared to modern state-of-the-art Android games, such as Modern Combat 3, The Dark Knight Raises, N.O.V.A.3, Dead Trigger etc, this Macross game is about 2 years (at least) behind current top of the line games. Certainly, Android in its present state on a high end phone is easily capable of surpassing MTF. Graham
  4. So is the VF-4 playable in this game? Graham
  5. Thanks. Got the updated version installed, but when I try to log in using the user name and password I'd previously registered, I keep getting the following screen (see attached pic). Can somebody please tell me what it says. Honestly, I've never had to jump through so many hoops to play an Android game. Graham
  6. Unfortunately, I can't download the updated version through Google Play, as it says not available in my country. The only way that I know of would be to download the apk file of the latest version, if I can find it. Is gameplay anything like MUF/MTF? Graham
  7. Got the apk installed, created an account (thanks to the helpful translation posts above), but everytime I click on 'Game Start', I get the white UN Spacy Logo, which sends out circles, then an error screen pops up after a few seconds (screen shots attached). Going to uninstall the damn thing. Currently installed on my Samsung Galaxy SIII. Graham
  8. I honestly have no idea what my blood type is Graham
  9. Got the game apk downloaded and installed, but can't get past the first screen. Anybody want to provide a URL and a step by step translation in how to register a Message account? Graham
  10. Can't download via Google Play, says not available for my country, Damn HG Can't download via Google Play, says not available for my country, Damn HG Can't download via Google Play, says not available for my country, Damn HG
  11. The next rebooot will probably be teenagest angsty emo Batman, for the tween crowd..........LOL! And he'll probably sparkle! Graham
  12. Battroid mode looks good, but fighter mode is not really doing it for me and as I'm primarily a fighter mode guy and also as I'm not a huge fan of the YF-29, this will be an easy pass for me. Now if they had made the nose of the plane all white instead of black and kept the black and yellow trim minimal, I would be all over this. Graham
  13. Yawn! Wake me up when they have an actual movie that I can buy/watch for a dollar. Graham
  14. I've never had a wing fall off. But the wing pivot pins pop out frequently during transformation and I've also knocket out the chest cannons a few times as well. Graham
  15. As much as I love the original movie and like the TV series, some franchises should just be left to rest in peace and NOT be resurected. Graham
  16. Nah you obviously just ate some bad cheese too close to bed time and dreamt it. Graham
  17. Heh, or could say a "black smith" Graham
  18. Never could get into Eva. The first few eps were OK, quite a 70s Super Robot homage feel, but after that it just got too angsty and weird. Besides IMO, the mecha designs were not my cup of tea. I mean mecha wearing purple spats......hmmmm.....okaaaaayy. Great if you like it, but I really don't see what all the fuss is about. But Rei was cute Graham
  19. For those Android users, highly recommend the following games. Strike Force Omega: Top down tactical, starships vs bugs game. Dead Trigger: Zombie FPS. SAS 3: Top down zombie shooter. Modern Combat 3: FPS. N.O.V.A 3: Sci Fi FPS (kinda like Halo). Graham
  20. Yeah, lucky I managed to snag my first one with Anime Export and my second with HLJ, so I'm not bothered about not getting the one from ishop2go. Graham
  21. I just received a phone call from a lady at ishop2go, who spoke pretty good English. She was very apologetic that there were not able to fulfil my order. She said they only received 10pcs of VF-171EX from Bandai, but actually had over 300 orders from customers. Anyway, they offered me the choice of a refund or 20% off any Yamato item in stock. I took the refund. Graham
  22. I like the fighter mode stand for this, locks into the plane very securely, unlike the stands for Bandai's other DX VFs. Graham
  23. A few battroid pics. The third pic shows the only paint wear I've encountered so far (on the top edge of the backpack), after a couple of transformations. Transformed from fighter to battroid and back again twice now, with a short stop once at Gerwalk mode (never my favorite mode). Transformation on this one is fairly complicated, but I do find it easier than the Yamato VF-17S, as unlike the Yamato, you don't have to worry about damaging the ultra-fine and sharp pointy bits. Graham
  24. Hip mechanism is similar in some ways, but much, much tighter on the Bandai. In fact rotating the hips on the hip bars took so much force, I was scared I was going to snap the diecast hip bars. My VF-171EX has the tightest hip rotation of any toy I've ever owned. The backpack is pretty solid, as it locks into the backplate with two pegs. The Bandai VF-171EX locks together much more solidly than the Yamato VF-171EX in both Battroid and Fighter modes. The Bandai has many more points of locking. The VF-171EX's torso locks together very well, once you get it figured out. My main gripes with the VF-171EX are the wing pivot pins which have fallen out about 10 times so far and the fact that it's quite difficult getting the arms in position and locked back in place when transforming back to fighter mode.
