Oddly enough, I happen to have some of those "self-describing" goods posted on the world famous Macross Stationery Thread!.....

Star Wars Rogue Squadron, in theaters TBA
jvmacross replied to no3Ljm's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I think I just read an article recently where it said WB was already backtracking there "everything gets released in both theatres and streaming at the same time" schtick..... Now they are saying the "more expensive" movies will get released at theatres first before going to their streaming platform....and their "riskier" movies will get booted to HBO Max.....translation: the crap will go to steaming right away! The only problem is, as far as DC flicks goes, most are crap regardless of the price tag! https://collider.com/dc-movies-theaters-plan-2022-hbo-max-walter-hamada/ -

Well, unless you haven't been keeping up with current events....the pickings were pretty slim this Christmas season at the movies.... And sure, I watched it....at least I did not lose any money doing so.... -
I do not go and research everything I decide to watch on TV....my only lure into the show was the mention of "Lovecraft" in the title which on that sole basis would indicate some connection to the stories.....sadly it did not deliver on that front....not even a little....if it was never meant to be that type of show, so be it....it was still lacking....as I said before, it could have been alot better if they had managed to fully integrate both themes to the end....but it failed to do so...
-
You must have a very good reason to resurrect this thread....
-
Bruh.....are you sitting on a replica of the Iron Throne? LOL!!
-
Zero interest in finding out if the book is any better....I really doubt it As I said, the Lovecraftian tropes were tossed at the start of the show but mostly were forgotten by the end...the show just gave up on trying to blend the 2 genres into something really interesting....by the conclusion of the story, they literally could have just replaced the black actors with white actors and it would of had zero effect on how the story ended up.....and the Korean lady/monster....what a waste....she literally was just created to have a way to resolve how to destroy the bad white lady at the end other than that she served no other purpose....this series had a high production look to it, no doubt, but it was just trash behind the sparkle

This hobby requires sacrifices to be made...just slap a Band-Aid on it and start "elaborating".....
-
It is as good as you can get for a DX VF-1D....pretty sure that will be the going rate once it gets released....only thing that would beat the price would be the return of "lower" shipping options... Luckily, I have already secured all of mine and should be able to get a better shipping cost once I have them all consolidated into a single package
-
The main problem with Lovecraft Country is that is had virtually nothing to do with "HP Lovecraft"....I thought I was going to get was a good dose of cosmic horror but it barely materialized.....got the bait and switch instead.....nice one HBO!
-
In Wonder Woman 3, they will keep "Wonder Woman" in the movie title...but will just cut out Wonder Woman entirely from the actual story.... The good news is it will still have a 50/50 chance of being way better than WW84!
-
Are you referring to the recent Yamato/Arcadia 3P VF-1's? Yeah....unfortunately, like it or not, "KO", "unlicensed", "3P" these days no longer equates to being complete garbage...still....they are not official, especially when you have the actual license holders warning their customers about them.....again, buyer beware

The Force is Hot Females? Dunno....Gal is about as hot a female can be.....but it still did not save WW84 from being a complete mess... -
No, I am not really that into the non-official releases...I mostly had KO's from the mid-80's and the Joon's but sold them all off years ago. Yes, that clears it up @nightmareB4macross...lol....I was thinking there is no way that thing was legit....but was surprised when it seemed like you were saying it was...... I always defer to facts about KO collecting to @nightmareB4macrossand other KO experts....with that said, I think it is important to be clear about what makes something "legit" or "official"....not that most people with some knowledge would get ripped-off, but it is the new collectors that may fall victim to unscrupulous sellers......I may be alone in this, but using the word "official" for anything but the actual licensed toys sold by the IP holders is problematic....it does not matter if some or part of the toy is "legit".....but, that's just me....I think alot of folks look to this site as a source of facts when dealing with these items.....potential buyers beware I suppose
-
I remember this trailer....cool use of an iconic 80's song....classic bait and switch.....were there even any 80's songs in the movie? Why even make a big deal calling it WW84? It is ironic that we also recently received the bait and switch treatment with the Rogue Squadron tease......OT X-wing prominently shown only to find out that the movie will take place after the ST......at least they are not playing the long con game with this one...lol
-
If referring to the "half Strike Box" VF-1S....I would say it definitely had to involve some KO crew to get the box made, at minimum....the others with legit toys but wrong armor are a different matter...those are legit toys with deliberate "QC issues"....
-
It would be hard not to "miss the mark" when you were not providing all the details.....you had not pointed out the the toys actually had Bandai marks on them until now...ultimately, if the whole toy (including the box, etc) is not 100% licensed and packaged by the legit license holder...it is still a KO, no? And just to be specific....the one I was referring to and what I think jenious was referring to originally was this one.....there is no way I can accept this as anything but a KO....I was not referring to the valk toys that come with "jetfire" armor that has already been analyzed as thoroughly as could be....even if the valk toy below is "legit" someone still had to go out of their way to produce the KO box to sell it as a complete "product"....of course, if you just sell the toy without the box, you could get away with saying it was an "original" Bandai...but still, the one pictured below has shoulder stickers that may belong to a jetfire...so back to square one....

Yeah, it would be a shame if she just used the memory of her deceased father simply to hype-up another Disney Star Wars dumpster fire.... -
OK, in my definition, official license would also imply that the owner's marks would also be stamped on it.....are you saying that these are also stamped with Bandai marks? If so, then these KO crews were even bolder in the past...lol
-
So it has a BW or HG license? I am not sure why you would consider it an "official" product, please explain.

That's too bad...because apparently you will be missing out on the greatest fighter pilot movie ever made! -

LMAO...you have way too much time on their hands "bro"! Hostility? I posted a few lines...you posted a manifesto! Whose "nerve" got struck? Here is the joke broken down for even the dumbest to understand......it was a play on the similarity in the spelling of "rogue" and "rouge"....and it would make no sense to post "Rouge Squadron" with a pic of a "Rogue Squadron" pilot looking like his/her "normal" self (guessing "normal" is no longer an acceptable term to use).....sheesh! Even if I had posted it without the pic, I do not think it would have mattered to you....your "nerve" would have been struck regardless based on your apparent disapproval of the "trend" of opinions....but, seriously, if you do not like my posts then simply ignore them or block me....that is the advice usually given out by the mods.....even a simpleton should be able to understand the benefits of that strategy..... -
Still available at a limit of 6 per order.... https://p-bandai.jp/cart/?returnUrl=https%3A%2F%2Ftamashii.jp%2Fitem_character%2Fmacross_series%2F I think the re-sellers are backing off of this one....thinking the glut of VF-1S Focker's currently collecting dust on AJ and YJA made them think twice.... Which could have an effect on how many actually get made by Bandai....that could lead to a higher price for it in the future if those numbers are pretty low

Golly....all that from a post? You think social justice will come about from a movie?...are you a simpleton?
