    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.

    Because the price is lower, no doubt many will gladly buy this and claim it's the superior toy. Based on Battroid alone I'm thinking Fighter mode won't look as good. Maybe it will be "good enough" to people who couldn't, or wouldn't, afford the Arcadia version. But that won't necessarily make it the best. I'm willing to bet there will be brilliant little details on this in addition to some head scratching stupid as is Bandai's way. From my stance this is going to be an interesting, mildly cheaper wtf.

    The problem is that I'm an adult now, who may or may not have experienced something similar (without all of the Universal Destruction.) When you were a kid it was probably cool as hell watching reality be dismantled but from my perspective it's like she doesn't like you, time to move on dude. All I think is why doesn't Thanos like himself, poor bastard.

    Only showed up ten months late... that's pretty much on time for Palladium. I have a lot of painting and assembly ahead of me. No idea how to clean off the bit after I taken it off the sprue.

    Actually, I found it rather stupid. Essentially it's just a guy who doesn't like himself trying to impress a woman who was never interested to begin with. Not really a ride or necessarily even a critique of comic book nerds but anybody with low self esteem.

    What about VF-1's with super parts? You don't have a Vermillion Squadron to throw up would you?
  7. Mommar
    Actually that's just from the Mac30 game and it wasn't the YF-30 that took Isamu down. Brera in his 27 is the one to take him out. Plus that wasn't in his VF-19Advance either. Although, according to the game, Leon was able to outmaneuver both the YF-21 and VF-27 at the same time, which is impressive.

    Do you have a 171 of any kind? I could just send you one of my two stands and you can mess with it.
  9. Mommar
    If you could track that back down I'd love to hear the whole story.

    Unfortunately there's a bit of an additional bump on the back of the fighter where the Dish attaches to. It's not just flat, like the Alto version, with some peg holes. Part of the base of the Dish is attached to the back of the Valk. I haven't tried to remove that part yet but it looks attached to me. Plus there's some additional holes for the rest of the dish to plug in to. So it's not quite like the Alto but it works okay.

    Perhaps Isamu is a savvy investor? I wouldn't ever buy that. The father of a buddy of mine was just a regular Air Force pilot and in his sixties he's still just as cocky and full of himself as he was in his twenties. I don't think those kinds of test pilot personalities ever really go away. Look at Buzz Aldrin, he still has attitude today.
  12. Mommar
    Both of mine showed up today (Happy belated Birthday to me!) The additional weight from the dish and fin does make posing in gerwalk a tad bit difficult. I'd take some photos of Fighter and Gerwalk (I hate the half-assed way they handled Battroid here so I won't ever transform that far) but this weekend is extremely busy and I'm heading out the door for the evening.
  13. Mommar
    It's an interesting story but I feel like it doesn't fit in with Isamu's personality at all. He was a test pilot and was interested in pushing the envelope as far as possible. Why would he want to settle on a YF-19 model when he could be gunning for some bigger, better fighter like a 24/25/29/30/etc... He'd want the thing coming after all of those, not try to take a fighter and make it into something older.

    Okay, so I just read Thanos Quest. Did Death really pull the most cosmic "it's not you, it's me" on Thanos?
  15. Mommar
    Well yeah, murderous AI seems like a threat we could face. Big purple guy in love with Death is a bit too fantastical to feel like a threat.
  16. Mommar
    I'll buy one out of curiosity but I'm already skeptical just based on the proportions and decisions made in Battroid plus I think Bandai has been continually dropping the ball since they started adding on all of their silly clamps/clips/half-assed add-on parts that I really don't have faith that they've put this thing together right.
  17. Mommar
    Man, that is effing weak. A HUGE selection of the Silver Surfer stuff isn't available with Marvel Unlimited. No go on #50. They do have Thanos Quest however.

    I still want to know what that kibble is on the upper back portion of the shield.
  19. Mommar
    $20 says it will be $200+
  20. Mommar
    Why would you have your fuel pods split into two pieces during a transformation? What do you mean by long? In Fighter? I'm wondering what the curves might be like in fighter mode. They don't have that bit of extra bump on the chest piece like Arcadia do, nor is there any flexion in the lower support piece, however that was in service to keeping the fuselage shaped a certain way in Fighter. The more rounded look is something Bandai did on their Hi-Metal series and it looked.... bad, IMO.
  21. Mommar
    Interesting that the lower support piece beneath the nose cone protrudes farther than the upper chest piece does.
  22. Mommar
    Which makes no damn sense considering they practically look like the missile boxes on the 25. What's with the odd kibble on the back of the shield? The ankles already look far superior to the terrible Yamcadia version. Are the calf panels collapseable or something? What's with the weird split/cut at the top near the knee? It looks like the fast packs attach like my original idea, both at the wing root and the hard point closest to the fuselage. You probably can't fold the wings in in battroid because of that. This must be what Jenius was alluding to when he said Bandai wasn't happy Arcadia beat them to something.
  23. Mommar
    I'll check that out then, thanks.

    This last episode actually proved that Rick was right after the season opener when he wanted to go back into Terminus and wipe them all out and the rest of the group told him no. None of it would have been necessary if they had finished the job like he wanted to.

    I don't know who any of these actresses are you people are posting about except for Katee Sackhoff (who I ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY DO NOT WANT.)
