  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.

    Hi-Metal R

    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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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
  11. 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.

    Hi-Metal R

    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.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.

    Hi-Metal R

    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.
  16. 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.

    Hi-Metal R

    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.

    Hi-Metal R

    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...
  19. I'm surprised nobody posted anything new yet. http://www.taghobby.com/1-0/1-3/%E4%B8%8D%E6%96%B7%E6%9B%B4%E6%96%B0-2015%E5%B9%B410%E6%9C%8830%E6%97%A511%E6%9C%881%E6%97%A5-tamashii-nation-2015-%E7%A7%8B%E8%91%89%E5%8E%9F%E6%9C%83%E5%A0%B4%E5%B1%95%E5%93%81-s-h/ I don't care for any of the DBZ stuff, I got SS Goku and a Broly, I'm fine, but that original trilogy Star Wars gang, Hawkeye and Black Widow? Um, frakking yes please. Beerus, Freddie, and a bunch of others went up for pre-order the other night, I snagged two Freddies at AmiAmi, I need all of the Star Wars stuff, the Avengers, minus any extra Iron Man armors and the un-armored Tony, I need a Pikachu for my Smash collection, ugh... Edit: It looks like in the reflection to the left of the original trilogy Star Wars figs I see a Jango Fett standing there, maybe Boba, damn, Bandai really went all out, they literally want all of my money next year.

    You fools don't you see! With Figuarts Breetai announced that means we could possibly get some Figuarts Zentradi and Meltlandi!

    Hi-Metal R

    So yea this is all really amazing news, and now, I have zero reason to own any 1/60 stuff. I'll be selling my pink Arcadia 1J, and I've cancelled my Arcadia VF-4 pre-order, if there's a chance we're getting one in the Hi-Metal line, I won't even bother with Arcadia's expensive version, especially since I really only like one mode. In fact, ditto with the 0A, I was interested in an Arcadia VF-0, but they are charging far too much, and their QC is far too spotty for me, once again, if I can get one in the Hi-Metal line I'll be very pleased, I'm officially not even looking at whatever Arcadia announces from here on out, Bandai is truly attempting to put them out of their over-priced misery., and I'm very happy for it.
  22. And I'm pretty fine with that, in my opinion the Grodd episode was one of last season's strongest, and a personal favorite of mine. The fact that they're attempting episodes with characters like that is admirable enough. The King just looked so good, and his appearance came from absolutely nowhere. Yeah, earlier Patty found the teeth, but I figured it was just a little nod or easter egg, or a setup for something later in the season. But no, bam, there he was, and right at the most ironic part of Barry's speech. The show must have gotten a decent budget jump, being CWs highest rated show in their history paid off, plus I'd say Firestorm's effects looked better overall as well. Oh yea, and the new Firestorm, so that's how he's doing Legends of Tomorrow without Ronnie. Jax seems okay, I'm fine with the actor and character I guess, I kind of expected them to bring back Jason Rusch, he was already introduced, did he die, or did they forget about him?
  23. Damn, so, how about that last 2 minutes of last night's The Flash? From what I read, that little snippet with the King cost a pretty penny, but he looked really, really, really, really, good, like, I was damn impressed they managed to pull that off, well done CW.
