  1. Just noticed a difference between the DX toy and the 1/72 model kit. On the model kit, the twin muzzles of the 27mm forearm railguns are exposed in Fighter mode. But on the 1/60 DX toys they are covered. I wonder which is anime accurate?
  2. That's why one of my Sv-262's is staying in fighter mode. And my second one has only been transformed once from Fighter to GERWALK to Battroid and will forever remain in Battroid mode. Anyway, in a moment of post-payday madness, I just ordered a second set of the Lil'Drakens, so both my Keith SV-262's can have the missile packs fitted. yes, my will is weak, I know. But heck does my son really need to go to University????

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Broke down and just ordered a second VF-31J super pack, for the inevitable episode 26 VF-31J knight emblem version
  4. Snap! Exactly my feelings too. That stuff about laser firing mini-drones annoyed the hell out of me too.
  5. Really like to head on the standard version, much better than the Anubuis head on Keith's. mm........I just noticed the railgun muzzles are exposed in fighter mode unlilke the DX toy.
  6. My initial thoughts on the VF-31 Master Files. Lots of pretty pics, but some stuff that bugged me: They got the rear landing gear wrong. Yes, what they drew for the book looks better, but it's still wrong. Disappointed that there were no drawings for alternate load-outs for the leg bays that hold the multi-drones. Was hoping they would have shown an alternate micro-missile load-out. The VF-31A Kairos was incorrectly drawn with hard-points on the outer wings. Disappointed that there was no cut-away drawings or detail about the arm railguns. Anyway, I consider Master Files basically unofficial fanfic, so never really take seriously anything in the pics anyway.
  7. Really like the look of fighter mode. Gerwalk, not so much and one time getting it into that mode is enough. Battroid actually looks surprisingly good, better in person that it does in the photos, IMO. No regrets burying a second one to permanently keep in Battroid mode.
  8. Can anybody remember in the Macross Delta anime whether we see the Sv-262's beamgun pod firing in fully auto, or only in semi auto?
  9. Luckily no tampo came off my two when I removed the protective film, which I did very slowly and carefully.
  10. LOL............that's hilarious.
  11. Yep, I echo that sentiment, thank goodness for Jenius' transforming guide. It's a real lifesaver.
  12. Is the yellow color for the beamgun's extended barrel and middle-section accurate to the anime? I wish they had been a metallic grey, the yellow plastic looks way too toy-ish and really out of place on a gunpod.
  13. I w When the Lil Drakens are released I'm putting them and the missile packs on the fighter mode and the battroid will just get the sword and shield. I'm not gonna order two sets of the Lil Drakens for my two SV-262.
  14. Bought a second one to keep in battroid mode. My first one will stay in fighter mode. Unlike the VF-31, the Sv-262 will not be transformed often or maybe never again.......hahaha

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Damn, I'm gonna be on a flight at the exact pre-order time
  16. Hated the VF-22 Master Files, as at least the on drawings they completely got the shape of the micro missiles wrong for the dorsal micro-missile launchers. I guess the authors never looked at the pics in TIAS Mac Plus.
  17. Actually, the look of the Anubis head is the think I dislike the most about the Sv-51. Looking forward to the standard version more with its Fz-109ish style head.
  18. I guess next for Arcadia after the Ivanov is gonna be a Nora or CF Sv-51. Kinda a no-brainer. What I would really like to see is their take on the VF-25. But that's probably never gonna happen, as I doubt Bandai would allow BW to issue a licence to Arcadia to make 1/60 scale transforming VF-25 toys. Arcadia really should get around to releasing the M&M VF-1J and the VT-1 and VE-1 for those that missed the original Yamato releases.
  19. Currently watching or rewatching: 1) Vikings: season 4. 2) Star Trek TNG: Season 4 (rewatching). 3) Iron Fist: Season 3. 4) Supernatural: Season 12. 5) The Flash: Season 3. 6) Star Wars Rebels: Season 3. Will start on Legion soon. Just finished Six, which I really enjoyed.
  20. Actually, I was serious impressed by the CG in Gantz: 0.
