  1. Definitely not placing any additional pre-orders.... I am still looking forward to the Regults....they look good from the few pics that have been posted... They are definitely running out of "canon" paint schemes....so they may be reaching their end anyway....at this point I do not see them doing a VF-1D...maybe they can finally release the Alaska base VF-1's before they bow out....
  2. Saw it this weekend...had it's moments but for the most part it didn't work for me.... I liked the flashback-origin scene, my favorite of the entire movie...it was perfect...but the rest just seemed like it was just rehashing the original... The ending was kind of a mess....but definitely left everything open for a third movie....
  3. Yeah...would be nice if something could have been released for the 40th DYRL Anniversary....but after google translating the blurb...seems the writer of the article just cobbled one together using the SSP from the old school Bandai Hi-Metal 1/55 release from...one can still hope...
  4. Interesting...guess they gave up on it working for the HCM and applied the pull-back 'walking' action to the Paro Valkyrie? ...actually, it may be the other way around, as the Paro's were released before the HCM....but the HCM was 'conceived' under Takatoku's watch but sadly they went BK before they had a chance to release it....too bad Bandai, at the time, did not do much with their newly acquired Macross licenses....imagine HCM Super O's and Elint's...
  5. As of now....I have all regult variations on PO....the Hikaru GBP....and the Arcade Set w/Milia.....going to be a long wait to get all these POs fullfilled....but as other have already stated....PO-ing anything else from them is no longer an option for me....the first thing that came up that I skipped on po-ing was the Focker GBP armor.... And recently they threatened to go the Kickstarter route for the Destroids and Glaug.....why? They claim to own their own production facility now...they can produce based on deposits-po's made...if they get enough they proceed......oh wait....they abused that process and can no longer rely on it...not sure how a Kickstarter would be any different...it probably would be worse...
  6. I just thought it was showing the transformation points...haven't had a chance to Google translate it
  7. There was supposed to be a Focker 1\55 strike? Also some of the HCM lineart seems previously unpublished...
  8. Indeed it is.....so far I managed to get through the part where the elves take possession of the three rings....barely... The series is mind-numbingly boring.....I'd rather watch an endless loop of Aragorn & Co running across massive landscapes....at least the music would be enjoyable....
  9. I can't keep up with the Gen Alpha speak...is cursed worse than sigma?...at least they didn't refer to it as being skibbidi...or would that be a good thing?
  10. Funny how Wolverine took down a dinosaur for being hungry...
  11. https://www.gamesradar.com/comics/marvel-comics/star-wars-battle-of-jakku-roadmap/
  12. It's worth getting based on the description of the content
  13. Maybe that is Threezero's plan (hope)...unlike KitzConcept....they have no "Macross" logos plastered anywhere on their packaging....it is a strictly "Robotech" item... I would probably double-dip for a Japan-only release....
  14. Went with a copy of the "limited edition" set....will try to pick up any of the retailer-specific extras if they come up on their own...or if anyone here only wants to keep the discs of the regular releases and would sell the extras let me know via PM...I am referring to the A3 posters which seem to be different from some of the web retailers....
  15. I'd be more interested in hearing from the toy designers and merchandising folks during the SDFM-DYRL era....and not another interview with the same three creators....by now we all know how Macross started...I want to know about how it was promoted and merchandised for profit...lol
  16. Nice cover
  17. Thanks...bought another one....just in case...
  18. Unfortunately Disney isn't the first to force arbitration on an incident that was completely unrelated to a lawsuit and the courts have sided with the corporations..... The only reason why Disney backed-off was due to the bad press it was receiving....I wouldn't be surprised if they make an offer the plaintiff can't refuse and just settle out of court without admission of any fault....
  19. Sadly they are not the only ones that have tried to force arbitration due to the plaintiff entering a contract with a corporation they are suing....thanks to the custom-built current Supreme Court...we can only expect more of this type of BS
  20. Nah...that legal argument was a stretch from the start....lol https://www.npr.org/2024/08/14/nx-s1-5074830/disney-wrongful-death-lawsuit-disney Disney is going to have to pay up one way or another...
  21. Yeah I'm sure it's just the lighting...it's way too new to already be yellowing...lol
  22. Yep....still blocked during construction otherwise we would have walked during our last trip....the cool thing about these monorail resorts is that it makes it much easier to make the rope drops for MK and Epcot....haven't tested the Skyliner for early entry to HS and Epcot....but with a car it is not a problem....MK is always the biggest hassle when having to park...
