  1. Still can't wait, going this weekend, it looks like a ton of fun. I thoroughly enjoyed the first too, despite how stupid it was, I could give two frakks less about RT or Metacritic scores. It's weird, I absolutely hate the Transformers films, and these are nearly the same type of film but with a Ninja Turtles color scheme. Maybe it's just the right kind of crazy and stupid that fits the turtles better then the Cons and Bots, don't know, but KRANG!!!

    Hi-Metal R

    I got mine last night within 5 minutes of pre-orders opening on HLJ, also got my Robot Damashii ANIME Z'Gok, Patlabor Unit 1 Alphonse, and Figuarts Vegeta V2. Good night altogether, nice and easy.
  3. Zero Suit Samus is brand new, she's never had a Figma. But it does appear they're re-releasing the armored figure again, for like the fifth time, I really don't know who doesn't have one at this point that wanted one, same with Figma Link.
  4. Yes, Figma stuff should go here. We have a dedicated thread for most major toy lines and series. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=25242&&page=16

    Hi-Metal R

    I paid for my Glaug earlier from AmiAmi, only got one, I see no reason in two, they're commander/officer units, there shouldn't be a bunch of them on the field at once like Regults. Can't wait for this package, lots of goodies in it, Glaug, three Robot Spirits ANIME Doms, three Robot Spirits ANIME Zakus, and my Figuarts Mace Windu.
  6. This was great, thank you for the links. Agreed entirely, the soundtrack was phenomenal, it got me so pumped every time I had to slaughter some demons or deal with a gore nest, it was %100 perfect, and %100 metal. I'd say Doom for single player and SnapMap, coop demon hunting with friends in levels YOU build is tons of fun. Also in the future there will be more and more polished user created SnapMap levels to look forward to, I played a coop tower defense with Doom demons that was insanely fun.
  7. Doom has probably the funnest campaign I've played in months, it was totally worth the $60 asking price alone, I think it's that good. I wrapped up my first run at about 13.5 hours, I still have plenty of secrets and collectibles to find, and I've turned up the difficulty since my Doom Marine is a demon slaying beast now. Haven't tried too much MP, but it has been tweaked since the beta, for the better, and SnapMap seems like it will add a good bit of longevity to co-op stuff without the need for DLC and expansions. Color me impressed, it's violent, fast, and very much Doom.
  8. You won't regret grabbing Sphinx, PS-01A and BadCube Sunsurge were my first third party figures, both are excellent. PS-01A is selling out quick too like you mentioned, I'm not a Diaclone fan, but the red Liger version will be the only version of that sexy mold available here in a bit...
  9. It does, which is totally odd because the rest of it looks pretty bad, seam lines, painted vents and head lights. Funny enough, I prefer Sunsurge's back end, it may look weird and off, but it IS more cartoon/G1 accurate.

    Hi-Metal R

    Yup I'm ready for my Glaug, Figuarts Mace, and three Robot Spirits Doms to come in, AKA the Black Tri-Stars...
  11. I can't believe how badly Spinout turned out. I was reading on TFW2005 that Toydojo busted their stock open, then a couple of other pieces, then immediately discounted the figure by $30, they said they felt it wasn't the quality one would expect out of a $100 third party masterpiece figure. I think he looked god awful anyway, even the earlier mold that everyone liked so much before it was apparently changed, but this has gotta suck for those that somehow don't like the BadCube version and were waiting on this guy. At least he's dirt cheap now, maybe he can fixed and tweaked into a decent figure, either way, Toydojo and several other sites are taking a big hit on this turd day one, ouch. In other news, when in the ever merciful frakk is Backdraft coming out? I literally NEED him, Takara's version looks super meh, maybe I'll check out their Grapple so I can have two different molds to mix it up a bit.
  12. crap music choice, I mean, that's just bad. No he'll quit half way through because he gets stuck doing another tail the target/follow mission...
  13. I'm in for anything MP related when it comes to Beast Wars, Beast Wars was my jam. If Takara and third party move in that direction, I'll definitely be a VERY happy camper. There's been so much focus on combiners lately from Takara and third party, which I don't do, so I'd like to see Beast Wars finally get some high-end figure love.
  14. Like Scyla said, it depends on your preference in aesthetics, I personally have already grabbed two of the FansToys Dinobots. I wasn't going to get any Dinobots at first, but then I grabbed a Soar and then needed the rest, they're damn impressive, if you're just looking for G1 style Masterpiece Dinobots, I don't think you can do any better. I don't think any other company even has Dinobots as big as what FansToys has put out, they're pretty damn amazing, I think everything else is chug/classics-ish scale. Also, BadCube officially put not Swerve and not Gears up for pre-order, I'm grabbing both, at first I told myself I'd never double dip on third party molds like I did official, but I really like both Gears and Swerve, so there you go. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=BAD10011&mode=retail http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=BAD10012&mode=retail
  15. Meh, I had a bad experience with my MPP-10 for the whole two days I had him. Not only did the box and its contents absolutely wreak of paint, his left leg was still wet with paint! The plastic tray inside the box that he sat in had blue smeared all over it where his leg sat, plus when I simply touched his leg I left a finger print. He was also missing his left thumb, his gun was put together/molded improperly, it couldn't fold up and therefor it couldn't store in his back. Also, the little flaps that finish off the front of the truck mode, the ones that sit behind his back and around the opening compartment for the gun storage, simply were not attached and just popped off. Others mileage may vary, I had heard so many good things about the quality, but I didn't see any of that at all, just remember people, these are still KOs. The first and last KO I will ever buy too, I wasn't impressed in the slightest, gave it to my nephew. I heard the EVA version is coming next, and then that ugly green BAPE or GRAPE version or whatever, I'm staying away. The alt mode does scale better, but that obviously means the bot mode is WAY too big and completely off, I'll stick with MP-10, Takara from the beginning said they are focusing on bot mode scale, I'm a stickler for that more then alt mode scale. The extra die-cast was nice I guess, it certainly had heft, but I've never been a believer that more die-cast means better quality.
  16. Because it's just as idiotic and unnecessary as the heels. Phasma didn't have boob armor in Force Awakens, just regular armor, and yet, lo and behold, she still had boobs under the armor. Why on the chest of the women's costumes do they need the armor to follow the curvature of their breasts? I'm 100% positive their boobs could fit into the male ranger's costumes just fine, and I'm also positive they'd be fine without the heels too. I see both complaints as being on the same level of idiot and absurd, they're pretty lame designs no matter how you slice it.
  17. Didn't see this posted yet. I'm very meh on them, they're too busy, and they look like generic sci-fi armor. It looks like the Guyver armor had a baby with a bunch of multi-colored Iron Man armors. Edit: Better picture. Boob Armor? Heels on the girl's suits? At least now I know who to sexualize.
  18. I got some stuff in, a big box from HLJ, my Hi-Metal Roy from NY, and a few other random bits... I love the Cosmo Fleet SDF-1, the size is just where I wanted it, plus it's the TV version! I'm loving my legacy megazords, Falconzord looks great, but he's pretty damn useless without Ninja Megazord, who releases later this year. Figuarts Lupin and Fujiko probably have some of the nicest boxes in Figuarts history, they're just plain sexy. Pikachu is, meh, but he's Smash scale so I'll take him. While I like Ironhide more as a character, I may just like Ratchet's masterpiece figure more, he's awesome, and his default grumpy face is the best. The only things I didn't crack into were my Robot Spirits figures, I stopped buying Gundam model kits and figures years ago, but when I saw this ANIME line come out, I decided to go all out and get everything in the line, I can't wait to get home tonight so I can check them out, they look pretty damn amazing for the size.Tracks is, yeah, he was only $40 on HLJ on sale, so I guess I'll add him into my now 14 strong Autobot masterpiece collection, that is including third party, 15 when MMC Backdraft releases.

    Hi-Metal R

    Got my 3 from AmiAmi along with Figuarts Jango, I'm all done, time for bed.

    Hi-Metal R

    I highly doubt NY will have a limit, let alone 3. They didn't have limits on the non cannon fodder mecha, including the exclusive Roy, so I doubt they'll make these brownies limited. HLJ, near guaranteed limit of 1.
  21. 4pm, same as all the other Bandai stuff going up tonight. I'll be grabbing Jango and my three Hi-Metal 1As from AmiAmi tonight.
  22. Tking22

    Hi-Metal R

    I'll be needing three 1As, amiami will suffice as usual. I'm wondering what will be next, this 1A was a bit of a curve ball. I'd personally like to finish off some of Vermilion and get the Kaki 1A out of the way, but I'd settle for a Max 1J as well. Edit: I'm pretty sure those stands are just Tamashii trident stands, maybe I'm wrong and they're something new for the hi-metals.

    Hi-Metal R

    My Roy got delivered but I can't crack into him until I get home tonight from work, I got the stand too.
  24. I never thought this would see the light of day, I thought it was dead in the water. A few months back when I first started looking into third party masterpiece figures I said I wanted a Mirage and Sunstreaker first. Sphinx was an easy choice, no other MP style Mirage on the market, Invisible is not MP, and genuinely looks terrible, and then I looked up and decided between Spinout and Sunsurge. Sunsurge won out, Spinout looks too terrible in too many ways, the only plus on the figure is that the actual car roof becomes the chest, other then that his alt mode is awful and he doesn't blend with mp-12 very well, painted on vents, stubby, fat chest, he just looks so awkward and disproportionate overall. I'm glad I stuck with Sunsurge, but it's nice to see those who waited will be getting what they want.
