    Bandai DX VF-31

    I'm sold. Put it a video game and milk that mold Bandai!
  2. For the Peotect Armor to look anywhere near accurate Arcadia would have to redesign the base 11. It could stand for some modern tweaks at this point but I'm pretty sure will never, ever happen.
  3. I don't know, I watched a teardown of the Switch and the battery is not as easy to reach as the WiiU controller. There's internals for cooling built on top of it and it appears tjere's adhesive holding the battery in place too. I did wonder if someone would come up with a way to create a larger battery. Hell, a slightly thicker system would be easier for me to hold. Make a battery the size of the whole back of the damn thing. But that would screw up docking then.
  4. Finally got to pick up the Switch. It really isn't terribly convenient to carry around with you without some sort of bag/case which is too bad considering I find it far more convenient to play handheld than the bit of TV playing I attempted a few minutes ago. The battery life sucks. That really hampers it. Really bad. I'd have preferred the Switch be slightly thicker and heavier if it meant the entirety of the back of the thing were a massive battery. To be honest if the thing were a bit thicker it would be easier for me to hold. A lot of big-handed people have said it's pretty comfortable but I have pretty small hands and I don't find it all that comfortable to hold. I'd prefer so add-on grips or something. The built-in stand sucks. It's flimsy and doesn't adjust to any sort of really useful angle. Zelda is effing fun, however. I haven't tried out Bomberman yet. I downloaded the full version of Shovel Knight, I Am Setsuna and Fast RMX. Fast is a pretty good racing game. Kind of a cross between F-Zero and Wipeout. Looks excellent too. I only wish I could transfer some music to my memory card and play that instead of the in-game tracks. It's too bad I don't live in Japan, Europe or Australia as they all got between three (Japan) and six (Oz) Neo Geo games on the eShop as well. Though I suppose I could create a new account in a different Country and download them that way since the system isn't region locked.
  5. Oh, I thought for a moment you confused the DX version for the NYCC Special version that comes with Black Skull body armor. Kinda dumb how many variants of that figure are coming out all on top of each other.
  6. Still waiting to have the time to pick up my Switch at Best Buy. They had the systems at one store but the pro controller at another so it's a wide swath I have to make to get it all.
  7. Black on black?

    Bandai DX VF-31

    I would buy everything depicted in that book.
  9. There is now a waiting list for the Classic Punisher if you want to roll the dice on a cancellation opening up.
  10. Bandai is really starting to piss me off with the weird issues they're having with each of their Star Wars figures. Han finally arrived today and his gun holster is about the stupidest design choice I've seen. The strap is attached to his belt and you can swap out either the holster with the gun in it or the holster empty when he's holding. On it's own that seems sane, however the slot in the strap is super large and it's just a pass through so the holster actually pegs into Hans thigh. The result, if you want to pose Han with his right leg bent you HAVE to remove the holster. I noted the hole cut through the strap is too large because you can't even kinda fudge it and keep the holster on. STUPID. Also, his collar prevents him from turning his head up much. That prevents you from putting Han into his most popular hunched over while shooting stance. Also, the boot swivel blows and makes it impossible to spread his legs far enough for said hunched over stance as well. *sigh* On the other hand, it's largely just the Storm Trooper figure all over again but the Manga Realization Iron Man figure looks BAD. ASS. Samurai Cyber-Punk Iron Man. Unfortunately UPS screwed up sorting and War Machine Mk3 won't arrive until next week (so glad I paid for three day shipping...) so no mini-review of that. Also, 3P0 and R2 went up for preorder on Tuesday, apparently. I could only find them still available at Nippon-Yasan. Not Figuarts but I pre-ordered Revoltech Spider-Gwen as well.
  11. So overclocking the PSP only worked if you were tied to an outlet? You can do that with the Switch already... with the dock. There are articles/videos around the net that explain, and in some cases show with thermal imaging, how hot the system runs between handheld and docked modes. Docked it runs around 50 celsius, in hand held it peaked at 40 running the new Zelda.
  12. Yeah, we all knew about the pro controller already. There's a day one patch for the joycons. You really want the system to overclock in handheld mode? So you csn only play the game for forty minutes before recharging?
  13. Damn, I hate my Postal Service. I already had to ask them to redeliver my Han and Manga Iron Man yesterday and they didn't leave a notice for me to sign. They tried to redeliver again today, didn't accept the paper I left signed AND didn't leave the redelivery notices again. I might have to quit buying things from CDJapan, they won't ship by any other method than EMS and my postal service is abysmally incompetent.
  14. I didn't notice that. How about that, I actually was alerted about this version. Mezco sent me an e-mail at 7 am this morning but I didn't see it till now.
  15. Mezco's website won't even load right now. Didn't even know about this... Kinda lame that he comes with actual holsters for his guns considering the other releases don't
  16. I wasn't home to receive SHF Han Solo today. But review online kinda show some stupid issues with it. The primary one being that his gun holster pegs into his thigh and looks horrible if you try to use that leg because you have to unpeg it and it really shows.
  17. So it's what Prometheus should have been?
  18. The first two you can play on the 3DS, the last one on the WiiU. We haven't heard anything about a virtual console for the Switch yet unfortunately.
  19. Now we know why a new Macross show has been greenlit so fast. Guaranteed it's more Delta. Have to capitalize on those popular Walkure ladies.
  20. To be fair I haven't had time to play any games since 2015 (one of the reasons why I'm so excited for the Switch) so if something dropped out of that bottom I wouldn't know but between retail releases and downloadable stuff I have always had plenty of things to play on the WiiU when I used to have the time.
  21. Why? They've never done that before. And the N64 had a proper D-Pad though.
  22. I don't have this Conundrum. I like a wide variety of gameplay and have never experienced downtime on a Nintendo System outside of the back half of the N64.
  23. That's a good looking group. I could really use some stands. It's too bad Kitty is a peg warmer, it's a great figure, great head sculpt and she's a pretty awesome character in the comics too. You should swap Rogue and Shatterstar.
