Perhaps my opinion may help? Most GenXer Chinese males who are adult collectors of Macross/Arcadia won't be fooled by bootlegs of said product. They'll probably buy online from outside China to purchase the official production run QC. Every Chinese person & their mother are usually acutely aware of the "2 production runs." One from the official foreign company & bootleg (usually done at the same factory).At ToyRus in China the quality & paint apps are usually shitty..knowing parents buy because it's cheaper. Apps like Bilibili,Youku aswell as Baidu (Chinese equivalent to Google.)there are approx 100 video reviews of Official Macross/Arcadia/Yamato. ..If a Chinese adult collector of Macross buys bootleg,they'd do it knowingly..But I've never meet a collector here in mainland China that would risk an expensive important purchase of a bootleg as they'd prefer to buy the official production run overseas..In China u have 2 choices when buying brand names. 1. Buy it online from overseas and have it sent back to u (even if it was made in a factory in China.) 2. Buy the existing bootleg inside China. I guess the only reason of buying a cheaper bootleg would be if it wasn't a personal purchase..eg buying for your nephew etc..

Suicide Squad, in theaters Aug. 5, 2016
troyness replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
R-rated movies aren't shown in Chinese cinemas, but China's making an exception with this movie's PG-13 rating. Probably because of the word suicide in the title. Not a good number in China.- 242 replies

Spider-Man: Homecoming, in theaters July 7, 2017
troyness replied to areaseven's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
So is it true this film has 3 villains? (I hope that's not 3 super villains...I super villain and 2 antagonists I can deal with.) ...BTW seems like inefficient time/money spent on CGI post with SM's costume , only to look fake as an end result. Better material used , you'd think be less of a headache.?? ...Understandable CGI eyes tho.- 266 replies

troyness replied to Dobber's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Either way I hope the deleted scenes are all included on the BD release in their entirety to see what the movie could've been. I would also love it if most of the main cast dies to add some weight/consequence and add more meaning to ANH... ...Not like Cap CW's Bullsh*t cosplay fights. -
When is principal photography expected to wrap? They should be close, shouldn't they?

I'm just grateful ET hasn't touched ride armors. Otherwise I'd buy it and shove it up my own ass...and there'd be nothing I'd be able to do to stop myself.

The most important thing to take away from this is that someone is bothering to manufacture something from lil' olé Mospeada. ...Let's hope ET can learn from experience.

Kylo Ren just doesn't seem intimidating to me to. First the "ant eater" helmet and now his voice. Didn't like the Trekkie jump to lightspeed, could of made that a bit more unique. ..Who Kylo with in the rain?.."red blades"/ inquisitors?
