I was JUST about to post this, love the trailer. Men of steel die and dark knights fall? That's as close as the DC-CW-verse will probably ever get to mentioning THOSE guys, or was it a gentle jab at the probably awful Batman v Superman? Gotta disagree on Heatwave, he is totally necessary, loved those two in Prison Break, and they just chew up every bit of scenery around them, I'm very much on board for Legends of Tomorrow, plus it looks like Firestorm is getting a more comic booky suit.

BLASPHEMY! In seriousness, I love the Ironhide/Ratchet look, Ironhide is my favorite Bot, so I can admit I'm biased, I NEED them both. That said, I've seen plenty of people saying they aren't vibing on the bot modes, it's understandable, I'm sure some third party is working on their own as well, aside from the ones already out and announced. -
My comments shouldn't alter anyone's happiness towards this re-release, or their drive to get one. It's just an opinion, not everything you read you will agree with or want to read, it's just some text. Not getting defensive, not sure where you got that. Received casual snark, returned it, I could literally make the same comment about you and being defensive, and yet it wouldn't be grounded in anything based on what you posted, just like how I read my comment as not being defensive either. Once again, I'm wondering why my differing opinion is bothering so many people. Apparently you and others didn't read my earlier post posts either where I said I hope it will be fine, and I hope my skeptics are wrong, and I'm glad others can get a whack at this at a very sexy price point. Not sure why you took my skepticism and cancellation of pre-order as whining, are unpopular opinions whining and others aren't? News to me. Don't take my comment as whining then, I just don't want one anymore. I get it, it's the VF-4, everyone and their brother wanted/wants one, I did too, now I don't, move along people, this never would have continued if people just could have ignored an opinion they don't agree with instead of finding reasons to label certain comments as un-necessary whining, and yet whining about whining is fine, your post got a chuckle out of me too. This is making my head hurt, just move along people, I'm done on this page, enjoy your VF-4s, hopefully.
-
Because I was going to get a VF-4 to be my only 1/60 valk, but now I'm not willing to take the chance, and this is a public forum ,where you post these kinds of things, like opinions. I had no idea my disdain for Arcadia and my passing on this valk would cause people to whine back.

Lol you mean like in Wednesday's episode where Black Canary jumped off that, like, four story warehouse roof and kind of Kirby floated her way down? Indeed, very off, out of all the well done action and choreography, that stuff sticks out. These people are in great shape, they do their crime fighting and defending based on physical prowess and what-not, but yeah, that's a bit much for me, and it's cheesy looking to boot. But everything else was insane, seeing Black Canary man handle a hallway full of guys was awesome, Laurel really stepped her fight game up since she put on the mask.

Flash's Gorilla Warfare was awesome, we got a glimpse of Gorilla City! How long before one of them comes looking for Barry/The Flash because someone dumped an unstable, war mongering, psychotic Gorilla named Grodd in their territory? Arrow was the highlight for me this week though, it had some damn good fight scenes, I love it when they get that guy that usually just does choreography and stunt work to direct episodes, the ones he does are always so stylish and well made. The elevator fight with Thea/Speedy was the standout, damn good stuff right there.
-
Yea I really liked the book back when I read it in highschool, reviews for the first episode are solid, so I may have to get a Prime account and start watching this.
-
That's what I totally forgot about, everyone's talking about the Episode VII Figuarts, I totally blanked and forgot I've got two clones and two droids on the way sometime this month. CDJapan still has clones and droids if you're interested, another thing I forgot was that next to Windu and Jango people spotted Figuarts Super Battle Droids too, the taller blue ones with the wrist cannon, something else to look forward to.
-
No one said they don't or wouldn't. And yet, over all of their releases they still have a better track record then the very short time Arcadia has been putting out supposedly high-end collectibles, so I'm not too sure what you're laughing about. Hopefully the VF-4 is fine, I still have little faith they won't screw something up, here's to hoping I'm wrong.
-
I'll be getting two of these to go with my two normal First Order troopers. Patience, they just announced that mass of Episode IV figures, and they haven't even put out their official shots of Grievous, Ep II Obi-Wan, Jango Fett, or Mace Windu. I'm sure we'll see more Episode VII stuff in time.
-
Regardless, pass. Arcadia's QC process is different from Yamato's by their own admission, I have no faith in their ability to re-create exactly what Yamato did based on the releases they've put out. Bad ankles still persist on 19s, 0s are legless messes and are worse then what Yamato put out, pink VF-1s, misinformation and a general lack of information on proper color and tampo, remember the 1J grey goggle mess? I stick by what I said, give it all to Bandai, I'm personally done with Arcadia and 1/60, and I stand by that, stupid opinion or not. If the VF-4 is fine and I don't get one, so be it, shame on me I guess, however, I won't lose sleep over it. Arcadia has proven, in my eyes, that they no longer deserve any money, especially compared to what Bandai is putting out at Bandai's price points. The kind that isn't willing to gamble on several hundred dollar plastic transforming jet toy releases. Like I said, if the VF-4 is fine, great for those that got one. I'm not taking that chance, I'm loving the Hi-Metal stuff, if we could get everything Yamato/Arcadia and Bandai put out in that line I'd lose my mind, supporting it will get this, Arcadia failing will accelerate this, and they currently appear to be floundering with their embarrassing, awkward colored 0 releases.
-
Looks good, can't wait. Have we gotten confirmation that this 1S will come with an extra tip for just a super part armor set? My old Roy 1S had a super and strike tip so you could have either look you wanted, my exclusive DYRL 1As super part packs were the same, they came with the extra tip so you could do a super or strike setup.
-
Like I said about a week ago, I cancelled mine. Yes, it costs less then a 0, but I'm still not taking the chance, I would never take the chance on any figure that costs over $150, plus, out of principle, I've decided to not give Arcadia another dime. Hopefully they die off and Bandai can pick up what licenses they have to bolster their Hi-Metal R line, Hi-Metal 0s and a VF-4 would be awesome. Such a shame too, the price is very right, but after this big VF-0 debacle, I just can't do it, I'm done with 1/60 scale.

From what I've read, Dogmeat doesn't affect the Lone Wanderer perk, he's like a default companion, the game doesn't consider him one that you have to find, talk to, and then take with you. Build a fast travel spawn point, it should be all the way to the right under special, destroy ALL dog houses in Sanctuary, then build a brand new one next to where you built the fast travel spawn point. Dogmeat should be hanging out there next time you fast travel in after building all the above.

I'm skipping Battlefront too, I despised the beta. To me, it actually felt too much like Battlefield and not at all like Battlefront in any way, plus it had god awful spawns, and it seems like over 1/4 of the content was cut and saved for the stupidly expensive season pass. I'll stick with Fallout 4, this one was an easy pass. -
I love Dogmeat, he's always been my one and only companion in each game, but then again, I like going with the Road Warrior approach, just me some guns and my dog... He was super useful in the beginning of this game, I used him to get me that super powerful cryo gun within the first hour from the vault over seer's office. I've been looking for armor bits for him so he's more durable, so far I've got heavy on his body, and medium for his head gear, and I gotta say, the armor works well, he's much more durable, he's like a hellish canine tank.
-
So yeah, I need this, badly. As soon as pre-orders go up, one of these glorious sets WILL be mine. http://lego.gizmodo.com/our-first-look-inside-the-lego-ghostbusters-firehouse-h-1741923284

Very excited for MP Ratchet, he was announced pretty quickly too! Now I don't have to waste my time on any of the bad 3P versions of him and Ironhide, I'll just get the Takara versions. I'm ready to snag mine as soon as HLJ opens up. -
I never had any sagging issues with the backpacks on any of my Hi-Metals, new or old. My 1S Roy with the bits on the pack were fine, put the super/strike armor on the original bright white Hikaru 1J, no issues there either. My GBP 1J doesn't sag when the little bits are on the backpack either, I wonder how many people are forgetting the extra little hinge in the backpack that locks it in place? At the least the backpack doesn't sit too tight to the back, like the 1/60 V2 stuff, if you didn't clip that little bit on the top on any of mine the backpack always fell down, but if you did clip it, damn was it way too tight, caused stress marks, warped the plastic a bit too.

I liked both Arrow and The Flash this week. It is REALLY badass having Wells back on The Flash, his Earth 2 version is quite entertaining, plus Cisco being officially named Vibe is pretty cool, and also, does he get to date Hawkgirl? I'm glad the Flash gang didn't get all pissy and over-dramatic about Cisco hiding his meta-humanness, the less crying that goes on over secrets and betrayal on these shows, the better. Arrow was awesome, Matt Ryan is just the best, Constantine was a bit rough in the beginning, but I think towards the end it really found its footing, but of course, it was cancelled. Seeing him in the DC-CW-verse was cool though, plus what better way to introduce magic and the dark arts then with Constantine himself? I liked his little bit about Darhk too, if Constantine thinks this guy is dangerous, then Ollie really needs to figure out his team drama BS and get serious.
-
True, but you NEED a Widow, I NEED a Widow, we all NEED a Widow. Hawkeye too, they both look great, hopefully we'll eventually get Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, and the Vision too.
-
Damn, it looks like there's a TV Max VF-1A in the shot with the destroids, monster, and VT-1 and VE-1. I mean it's hard to tell, but it looks to have too much blue on the fins, but it also looks too white to be Max's 1J. With pictures of the Kakizaki TV VF-1A, I'm sure we'll be getting all of Vermilion Squad too.
-
Yeah I went ahead and cancelled mine too, sounded good for a bit, but I'm all in on the Hi-Metal line, dumping 1/60. And if Hi-Metal doesn't get around to the VF-4, oh well, I'm still not keeping a random 1/60 in my collection, especially one at Arcadia's pricing, and that I only like in a single mode.
-
Meh, they've already proven they can pull off a VF-1, and enemy and cannon fodder stuff is looking great. I always liked my Hi-Metal Vf-1s more then I ever did my 1/60 stuff, all of the SDFM stuff looks perfect, VF-4 and VF-0 would just be icing on the cake for me.
-
To be fair though, Breetai is a Figuarts, not Hi-Metal R. Either way, lots of good stuff announced for the Hi-Metal line. Like I said last night, I'll be putting my pink Arcadia 1J on the for sale section after work later today, literally no use for 1/60 anymore...
