  1. Order in on AmiAmi. Hope my order doesn't get cancelled like some are complaining in the thread for the series BD set.
  2. Well, I took a chance and did the cancel/re-order dance - thanks all for the heads up.
  3. Pic is pretty compressed - hard for me to say for certain those aren't decals. Plus when I put the text through Google Translate I get "Rehabilitation of the beam sticker" - anyone have a more accurate translation? If he says it's tampo, it's tampo. But they've showed pictures with decals before.
  4. I'm skeptical about the tampo printing. HLJ prototype pics don't have it. I'd think that all that detail would be a big selling point.
  5. I think you misunderstood the comments about droop in this thread. The parts don't cause the wings to droop from weight; when properly attached, the parts themselves droop downward with respect to the plane of the wing. They're molded that way. I just put them on, and even at full extension they didn't appear to move the underlying wing at all.
  6. [citation needed] It's not like Arcadia released the 1/60v2 line all at once. It was nearly a year from the release of the first 1/60v2 (a Focker, just like this time) until Kakizaki was released. It was around this time I decided to pick up 1/48 M&M, thinking "Nah, they'll never release M&M in 1/60v2, look at how conservative they're being. They're not releasing any obscure variants." Then a few months later they announced the 1/60v2 M&M release. It's possible that they may limit themselves to the more proven sellers, but if they're taking the build-to-order approach anyway, would it really surprise anyone if we start seeing more variants? Don't assume it's coming out but don't be surprised either.
  7. How do you find one? There's one or more CDs I want from Amazon sellers and it's hard to find non-bootlegs elsewhere.
  8. Mine came today. Pretty nice. I've ordered several CD and BD items from them. There's an 'In English' option at the top that helps some - the item descriptions will still be in Japanese, but everything about checkout will be in English and easy to understand. Pretty sure they don't ship toys internationally, though.
  9. There's a reason the new boxes are so big.
  10. Anyone who had theirs shipped using SAL from NY received theirs yet? Mine went out on the 14th and made it to JFK on the 17th, but hasn't moved since...
  11. Don't understand the NY hate. It's the cheapest price you can get it for anywhere that I know of. Plus I had my 25F before HLJ had even shipped out to a lot of people here.
  12. You may want to look just a bit closer at the second pic.
  13. Coincidence that the new page banner prominently features a Roy -1S? I think not.
  14. Looks to be tons cheaper than getting the individual volumes. I'll probably be onboard, as I don't yet own a copy of Frontier.
  15. Anyone had the nose simply fail on them? The entire nosecone/crotch assembly from 3-06 and forward just pulled away from 3-05. The edges on the tabs that hold A-08 and A-09 into A-02 and A-04, respectively, just pulled away from the rest of the tab, allowing the nosecone to come free. A-04 also developed some cracks in the area around the tab. No pics, because I've glued it together as best I can and all that's visible now is a hairline crack in A-04. But I don't know if I'll ever trust it in battroid again...
