    What mode do most of these VF's end up being closer to one another...in either 1:100 or 1:60....Battroid, fighter, or Gerwalk?

    May take a while for secondary market prices to settle..I think there are a few waves of releases for these

    I think these are the ones being shipped that were purchased via lottery process...

    Not sure if this was posted....insta-buy! https://gizmodo.com/lego-nightmare-before-christmas-price-release-date-details-2000486387 https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/disney-tim-burton-s-the-nightmare-before-christmas-21351

    Did they put their Regult on a diet again? Those legs seem like they are not as chunky once again....looks pretty good...and are they hinting at two separate figures to be included? 6 and 3 inch? I'd be OK with that....

    ...maybe Grogu will become a hated ahole or washed up loser before we even get a chance to feel dissapointed by the trampling of his fully developed character....at least no one would care...lol

    Nah...Disney will always have something more to show....especially if they want to squeeze some more profits out of the best character they created under their ownership... What still hasn't changed is that no matter how good or bad it ends up being.....we are still working within the "original" Skywalker Saga....riding a runaway sailbarge straight to TROS...

    I wonder if revealing the planet or rest of Yoda, Yaddle, and Grogu's kind might be a card Disney may end up playing for this movie...

    I assume you are staying off property? That is good that you were stil able to find open times.....I wonder what the availability would have been for park opening time though.... When I was there during week of July 28....most early morning slots were gone unless you had planned ahead for them, which we did....maybe Disney is purposely allocating a certain amount of fastpass times for folks that cannot book 7 days out (non-resort guests)? I hope so because otherwise paying for the app is pointless and a waste of money... Those late time slots you selected were available throughout the day up until maybe 1pm or so each day....then only really late slots were available in the app...of course, with kids heading back to school it should open up availability for all rides across WDW.....

    I was able to ride the new Tiana's Bayou Adventure re-theme during my recent trip to WDW.... Splash Mountain imo was better...but that is probably my nostalgia for it having a greater sway on my opinion... The Bayou Adventure is fun, colorful and the music is great...but it just seems to be lacking that villian-danger factor that Splash Mountain had....they could have easily included Dr. Facilier and his signature song as you are about to go down the drop....the ride itself is the same...so still good fun

    Ok...then definitely stick to Disneyland and pack in everything specific to CA vs FL.... Holiday Haunted Mansion Matterhorn Space Mountain (ok...only the music during the ride is different but imo much better than MK) Indiana Jones Temple of Forbidden Eye Mr. Toad's Wild Ride Snow White's Scary Adventures The rest are more or less the same as the FL rides..... Of course, this is just IMO....it can be argued that the entirety of California Adventure is unique and not available in FL....but personally if you only have one day....it's gotta be spent at the original Disneyland park!

    I can burn through $500 via some pay to play rides or a couple of table restaurants at WDW.....not sure how far $500 goes at Disneyland....you'll get to experience the Haunted Mansion Holiday since Disney seems to kick off Halloween earlier each year! I would definitely hit all the Disneyland specific rides and attractions first....and definitely all of California Adventure since it is specific to the West Coast Disney park...as for food...the only "in park" restaurant I have always liked at Disneyland is the Blue Bayou....specifically their Monte Cristo during lunch...didn't care much for the Downtown Disney restaurants...but I am sure much has changed since I was last there....either way there will be no way not to enjoy your visit...just stay healthy before your trip starts!

    The one thing that was interesting was the idea of bringing Indiana Jones to...Animal Kingdom? With the dismantling of Dinoland....maybe they will just convert Dinosaur to the Indiana Jones ride from Disneyland....if so, and with apparently a new "Cars Land" coming to the Magic Kingdom....yet more reasons not to make the trip to Disneyland....ugh...I still want to make it out there during their Haunted Mansion Holiday though....which will probably never get brought over to Florida...lol

    I like the boxart....I'll pick one up on discount at a US retailer if it goes below the jpy msrp....

    Not only is it fugly....it's also pre-yellowed....so you can immediately fast forward to your eventual dissapointment...

    Apologies accepted, Captain Raikkonen...

    Is there something new about these? The KC LV's have been out since December last year....a LV VF-1J...or at least a freebie "head" unit....might be interesting...
  21. jvmacross
    Probably not....but the sculptor may have been inspired by a Super VF-1 shown in the MtF manga...
  22. jvmacross
    I would like to see one done using Yamatos....a proper MtF custom...

    Hard pass

    Just went through the new Disney lighting lane multi/single pass process for WDW and I was very impressed....I had a bad feeling that Disney was going to mess up on its first day of roll-out...but it actually went very smoothly.... Not only was I able to get everything I needed...but I also was able to get everything I wanted....initial ride picks for each park and park hops are all setup with the times I needed to coincide with my lunch and dinner reservations.... I had already mentally prepared myself to get up each day of my visit to pick all my rides using Genie+ and then had a feeling of dread when they announced that Genie+ would get lauched today just a few days before our trip is to start...luckily I already knew what parks and rides I was going to go for...so getting all that done ahead of my trip was an unexpected bonus!... With that said....Still need to snag our virtual queues for the few rides that are still available....not going for those free virtual queues, under the current pay to play system, is like leaving 100's of dollars on the table....at least that is how I see it....luckily they are fairly easy to snag...at least they were the last few times we have been at WDW....
