Pics from the new issue of Hobby Japan magazine. Graham

Still not sold on these, even with the latest color pics. But then again I'm not sold on Revoltechs in general. Graham

Err......I'm not the most knowledgable person about the Marvel universe, but isn't Nick Fury supposed to be white? Graham

So does this show have good mecha action/dogfights or not? Graham

Extra weapons. Both of the YF-19's leg FAST packs carry additional twin micro missile lanchers. The YF-21's belly FAST packs also both have an extra twin micro-missile launcher. Graham

The new hobby magazines should be out by next Monday, so hopefully they will feature some new pics. Graham

The Brutishdog has already been announced as the next release in the Bandai 1/20 Votoms plamodel line. I'm sure Bandai will milk the molds for all they're worth and we'll see many Scopedog variants. Graham

But the rear landing gear is not even supposed to go in the belly flaps, it's supposed to go in the wing roots. Now is probably a good time for the oft repeated Blade Runner quote. Graham

It has been for the past 7 years. Graham

I don't hate the VF-1, far from it. It's one of my all time favorite mecha designs and my Yamato 1/48 Hikaru VF-1S Strike Valk remains my all time favorite toy. It's just the market has been over-saturated with VF-1 toys in the past 5 years. I'd far rather see other VFs get the toy treatment. As for the RX-78, that's just fugly. Graham

Many products including a lot of toys do not include batteries. It's pretty common. Graham

The display stand, 2 x overwing boosters, 4 x micro missile pods and 2 x R-33D Amos missiles are all included, as I've mentioned quite a few times before. Graham

The release date is supposed to be 25th July, but this might get pushed back slightly. I'll have more firm news on Friday 20th as I have a meeting with Yamato then. Graham

Got 2 Fold Booster sets and 2 two YF-19 w/Fold Boster bundles so far and really happy with them all. Love the LEDs on the Fold Booster. Graham

I'm so bored with the VF-1, but if Kaiyodo did the YF-19, YF-21, VF-0A/S & SV-51, I'd buy them in a heart beat. Oh, a Destroid Cheyenne would be cool as well. Graham

Tempted to bid, but a little bit scared of the yellow bits being stickers not paint. I know you mention they resist peeling but........... Anyway, can we add this to the MW custom toy gallery? Graham

Looks great, but would even better if the main color was white instead of tan. Graham

Transformers does not belong in the Macross toy forum. Moved to other anime section. Graham

Ditto, keeps happenng to me both at home and at work. Graham

Hmm.....that's bad news that Toynami kept control of the molds and is making them instead of Aoshima. That means they are Aoshima branded only. I'm sure quality would be better if it was a 100% Aoshima controlled project. Graham

Looking at the prices on those links, they are obviously upcoming Hasegawa kits, not Yamato toys. Personally, I think they look great. Graham

No, the white and red YF-19 and VF-1 were not fan customs, they were official, but were one-offs and but will not be released for sale. The blue VF-1S and dark blue YF-19 are the production 25th toys as nobody like the original white and red versions. Graham

It's called bad directing Graham

Will be picking up one of each in one hour froom now. Graham

What about software customers, they knowingly and willing buy software known to be flawed all the time. Graham
