    Why no close-up of the Imperial Guard though?

    So you didn't keep watching to the point where Matthew's character completely rips her a new one over her idiotic stance?

    There's still things to fix in the VF-1 anyway. Bandai's Hi-Metal design for the shoulder transformation was a good idea. It's disappointing to see the Arcadia 0D is still reusing the same shoulder mechanism from way back when we've seen a better method in the hi-metal. The hip mechanism on the hi-metals were also a great idea for getting more range of poseability as well. There's things to tweak/perfect in a V3. We are drifting quite far off topic now. Very interested to see fighter mode.

    The Vader looks great. Too bad the Stormtrooper doesn't look nearly as good as the Hasbro one. I imagine, like the other Figuarts figures, this Vader won't quite measure up to any of the Hasbro versions just like their Iron Man figures are all slightly too short to look good next to the Marvel Legends figures.

    So when Tenjin commented to Arcadia the 0D's color was wrong he absolutely knew what it was supposed to be, huh?

    Does not explain the ugly, blotchy intake arrows on both the Bandai and Yamato Valks, however.

    Comparing both the old Yamato Tampo for stuff like the red intake arrows to both decal versions and the tampo on the Bandai's reinforces why I dislike so much tampo. Small details are lost, or the tampo has to be a proportionate size larger than would fit the aircraft in order to show up. It wins up looking like an unsightly giant splotch where it doesn't need to be. I still don't like those gastly over-sized No Step tampo's on the 171 and 30.

    I don't know if anybody has noted this yet, but while we were commenting on lots of other things did any of us notice those two slots along the upper thigh that have zero use for the 0D but quite obviously line up with where the reactive armor would attach on the hips/pelvis of the 0S?

    The first part I agree with, however the second part doesn't necessarily have to be the case. Since these things are always trilogies now it doesn't have to pretend like it's a standalone tale like A New Hope did. They can go ahead and start hitting on heavier themes and even leave on a cliff-hanger if they want to this time. Everybody knows parts two and three are coming anyway.

    I don't know who that is but after a quick google search she does have a pretty good look when compared to Carol Danvers. I don't know about her acting chops, but then I rarely watch movies/TV so what do I know.

    Those Black Series Storm Troopers are a lot of fun to pose.

    To be honest Iron Man is there in the back too, but we've seen him already. I'm pretty excited for these as well though I am disappointed there aren't silhouettes for the rest of the team (or a Hulk Buster Armor and Ultron himself) as well. I've been VERY happy with my Marvel Now Iron Man and want to get War Machine plus the two from Iron Man 3. Hopefully these will be out around the time of the movie instead of lagging behind by a year. Actually, hopefully Bandai goes whole hog with Marvel licenses and we get better figures then those damn Hasbro Marvel Legends toys (with a few exceptions.)

    It's been awhile since I've come around here. I guess I'll put up the latest from one of my production idols:

    Apparently there's some sort of special Blu-ray release of Godzilla that's going to include a red version of the MonsterArts Godzilla as well. http://news.toyark.com/2014/11/03/amazon-japan-exclusive-sh-monsterarts-godzilla-2014-blu-ray-143707 Also, Age of Ultron FiguArts as well.

    Any updates on this build?

    Was set in the past, was not old school.

    What? Seriously!? Random bitch lashes out at you whenever she's pissed off. Everyone keeps reminding you that you owe them. That's not comforting in any way. But it does go to show how many freedoms/rights people will toss away for the facade of "safety."

    Sweet, those Luke and Han figures look terrific.

    Sorry gentlemen, I haven't had time to take pics this weekend. I've got one all Gerwalked up but I don't be doing Battroid both because the transformation is miserable and that it was a terrible, half-assed attempt on Bandai's part.
  20. Mommar
    I tried to put the armor parts on and with the fin folded up beneath it can't quite sit on all three landing gears. The fin is slightly too thick to work.

    This appears to be a story about a Tomcat.

    There's a lot of parts but that also means you can reach/paint on a lot of detail and tweak each of their looks a decent bit.

    There's a lot of reading between lines that aren't there in regards to my comment. I was being purely analytical. People have already slagged off Arcadia and praised Bandai for this release based solely on these few pics without considering Bandai's history and basing everything on the potential lower price. There are some things here that look good, but that was true of the 30 and they packed some odd into that one that dropped my excitement for it greatly. I'm keeping my skepticism high now. The ankles already look like the versions from the VF-171 and if they implement a similar upper thigh mechanic this will be the superior Gerwalk mode in terms of poseability simply because of that. But given the shape of the chest pieces it resembles the Hi-Metals greatly and I despise the way fighter/gerwalk looks on those releases. I was probably the most critical of Arcadia's YF-19. But after all of he half-assed efforts from Bandai recently I don't have the same faith in their design I might have once had after their 25's.

    You know hoping the old Yamato's shelf-warmed is partly why they tanked. Waiting for these to shelf-warm is like asking Arcadia to stop making things.
