  1. I've been playing since launch night, which for me was last Thursday at nine, and it's fantastic. The combat isn't quite Sekiro, but it's fun and requires precision, between the different stances you learn to counter different enemies, there's quite a few moves. As Mike mentioned above the stealth is nothing special, it opens up more when you get to the second northern island and you get a few more gadgets, early on it's pretty dull. Game is drop dead gorgeous, one of the best on PS4, the photo mode is awesome, the game is made for photo mode, I find myself stopping every few minutes to take another screenshot. There's a prioritize frame rate option for PS4 Pro and I'm using that, still looks good. My main issues are stealth kills can be wonky, it's square to kill one guy, triangle to kill multiple in a chain, but I find myself slicing or poking guys instead even though I see the button prompt for an assassination. Also, the sensitivity for chain kills is derpy, I've had guys right on each other that I just couldn't chain and instead screwed the fight up, stealth just doesn't feel great and isn't that engaging. Other then that the Japanese language track is fantastic, but looks off. The character models were capped to the English voice actors, which are great too, so the Japanese audio doesn't match the lips, and looks really off in many scenes. I'm still playing Japanese audio though, you've just got to, English cast is really good too though like I said, and the black and white with film grain "Kurosawa" mode is a neat addition.
  2. I'd also recommend Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, that one was also fantastic, great combat.
  3. I'm absolutely in for a Lego Nintendo, looks fantastic, I'm really interested in seeing how they got that crank to "animate" the game on the screen. Solid price too, at 2,600 pieces I expected $300, $230, for me, is very doable.
  4. Ghost of Tsushima is reviewing very well, I held off preordering to wait and see on reviews after the embargo, I'm officially in. Looks pretty amazing, I've got my digital version downloaded and ready, unlocks for me Thursday night at 9.
  5. Look who finally showed up from NY. Love the paint, beautiful figure, Gwyneth Paltrow head is okay, Bandai has done better and worse before.
  6. Received my newest private warehouse shipment from HLJ, at this point I've got 14 Figuarts Stormtrooper figures from the various releases, but I think I like these newest ANH versions best.
  7. Damn he looks good, my Core Star/Unicron will be delivered tomorrow, I'm so excited! It most certainly can!
  8. NY came through on my missile sets,
  9. It seems to be complete luck of the draw at this point. I seemed to have gotten lucky and had a similar experience to F360, I just had to open one new ticket with the subject "upgrade shipping" and I got a new payment request within two hours. Paid that and got prep in progress in less then an hour, shipped out today.
  10. I'm sure they'll take some bits from all the recent G1 seeker figures, MP or otherwise. They'd be crazy not to, there's some fantastic engineering that goes into a lot of that stuff. And unfortunately agreed, Hound wasn't too complex but was a QC disaster, MP44 and MP45 were over engineered, expensive, and quite ugly from many angles. Easy passes for me, but I'd take a Hound rerelease with fixes, I'd wait for in hand reviews before ordering of course. MP 3.0 seekers seemed inevitable, they already made a new head with MP44 (what a dumb set of accessories that helped jack the price up), and the current seeker molds are terribly, terribly outdated. Easy pass for me though, my MakeToys seekers are pure gold, everything I want in MP seekers, the wing fillers, chest turbines, and leg vents helped break up the bland "toonness" for me. I was really, really hoping for MP Trailbreaker, that's one MP I have a third party figure for that is exceptionally meh, MMC Terraegis. Trailbreaker has been rumored for years too, that's seriously the one G1 MP replacement I would buy without hesitation.
  11. I just need a TV Kakizaki announcement and I can be done, no TV supers for me. My four missiles are still at prep in progress at NY, I'll feel better when those are in hand, it's been a while as usual.
  12. I'm passing on all the Marvel stuff. I'm fine with my Endgame Thanos, I got the NOTA Strange cape and face, NOTA Tony face and gauntlet, Wanda just seems to have painted eyes so my original is fine, same with Thorbowski. I also saw this posted, Nick Fury and Gamora confirmed as well. Both of these will be pickups, I can get rid of my stand-in Legends Gamora. Just need Bandai to announce that Figuarts Teen Groot.
  13. Two new Thanos seems excessive, one was a given, not sure about the other either, maybe it's Black Dwarf? Also, if Iron Spider MK2 comes with a gauntlet that fits the current Endgame Thanos, all this new one could do is have some effects and battle damaged paint, pass. I've got 12 Figuarts Stormtroopers, from the original ROTJ ones, to the Rogue One, and several of the newest ANH ones too, these remnant troopers look great and I'll be buying at least four, two scouts for sure too. I might need a few more death troopers too. Biollante is a grail figure for me, this one is about as articulated as she can get. The whole upper torso and head are segmented and have quite a bit of range, the vines are fully articulated as are the main stump sections attached to her body. Not far off what the actual suit was capable of, in the film she didn't do much outside slide around, bite, and flail vines around, the mouth opens up quite a bit too, she tried to swallow Godzilla in the film.
  14. Count me in as another person waiting and seeing on NinNin. Got one at $225, paid PayPal, it releases within the 180 days of coverage, we'll see. I've gotten multiple items from them before and have never been screwed, so that's one more positive experience to add I guess. Hopefully when November rolls around everyone who ordered gets their toys, won't bother with them anymore if I see others getting screwed at release.
  15. Holy crap, YES, FINALLY! Bandai is releasing a Special Color Version Biollante! I have been absolutely dying to get my hands on this thing for years now, aftermarket prices got insane, $600+ minimum, it's the only Monsterarts mold I'm missing from my collection. I'm so, so glad she's happening, myself and many others missed out long ago when she first released. Also, Bandai seems to be saying frakk you directly to Demoniacal Fit, full Ginyu Force incoming. Guldo isn't articulated so I may go DF for him at least, they look great, I'm in for the whole team! Plus Bardock looks good. And who would've thought, a third MK85 figure!? I'm so glad I bought the NOTAstudio head and hand for my first release MK85, these official heads don't look as good. Plus apparently a Final Battle Thanos V2? Lastly some more Mando Figuarts, remnant troopers and scouts, I'm in for multiples of each as usual.
  16. Had one in my cart at HLJ but got jacked, back to discontinued :(. Checked NinNin, they relisted, at about $225, nabbed one at that price with DHL shipping, paid up front with PayPal, I'm good for the night.
  17. I just paid NY for my upgraded UPS shipping for my four DX missile sets, fun. I'm in for a Roy so I too will be out there tonight, best of luck folks.
  18. Figuarts Emperor Palps showed up today, bigger box then I expected too. Beautiful figure, excellent detail throughout, looks good with the guards.
  19. Looks gorgeous, I'm so glad it's the TV Roy too, I would've passed on DYRL. I'm cynical about these DX though, I've accepted, a week ahead of pre-orders, I'm not getting one at retail and will have to pay some assperson on eBay for one at a markup. I need one though, so what can you do?
  20. I'm plenty happy with the one I have, it's an easy pass for me, the new Tony too. Looks good though, good for people that missed out, some of these armors go for crazy money on the aftermarket.
  21. I decided to catch up on the Creator Expert cars I missed out on, got these two in. I'm grabbing the VW Camper and Mini Cooper next, last Expert vehicle I'll be missing is the London Bus, but I don't know if I even want that set.
  22. Got another Lego Creator Expert car I was missing in, the VW Beetle.
