what do you mean ?
-
I, like many others, am sitting on the fence until we see profile shots of fighter mode. That, and I prefer the G variant
-
@David Hingtgen My thoughts exactly. I even cross referenced off of CG and the 1/72 model. The v2 fighter mode is noticeably wider imho.
-
I don't want to be a damp towel in the midst of all the excitement, but does anyone feel like the fighter mode is just a bit "off". Don't know, but I feel as though the length of the plane is too short and skewed in proportion. By all means it's better than version 1, but just a thought. I wonder if my eyes are playing a trick on me or it's the pic angle....
-
+1 I too love the new look of the version 2. Bandai should have hired flex a LONG time ago Its a good thing I hesitated on buying either the 1/72 or the 1/60 DX. Looks like the best of both worlds are coming together now. Unlike others though, I actually prefer the look of armored alto vs. armored ozma. Hoping Bandai doesn't gip me on this one like they did with the armored alto parts for the version 1 release By the way, if GERWALK looks anything like Hutch's profile pic, consider me sold for 2+

Aww..come on, you've got to have some element of like for G Gundam Just think of it as a super robots show with Dragon Ball elements

Does anyone think there will ever be a PG from G-Gundam, especially since they've started production of HGUC from the series recently? I would love the idea of a PG shining gundam. Though the series may have sucked, the potential for articulation in these gundams would make for a great PG imho.

Bandai DX Chogokin YF-29 Durandal Valkyrie
Archer replied to UN Spacy's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
I believe they do rotate upright with the moniter rotating with them. This results in the canopy being situated behind the seat in battroid mode (at least, that is how it seemed in the anime). Beyond that, Alto was shown to get out of the battroid via the canopy in the first Macross Frontier movie, so that may be how they exit the battroid... -
Personally, in reference to the online exclusives, I highly doubt they'd make Luca or Michael an exclusive. First of all, there are a LOT of people who prefer the VF-25g sniper variant, and if elintseekers have taught us anything, luca's electronic warfare rvf-25 is popular enough imho to warrant a standard release. Don't know much 'bout armor packs though... Assuming bandai release each and all variants, which would you prefer to buy? <-- This will tell us a lot about the general preferences of the audience of macross frontier
-
It would be great if bandai uses the design aesthetics of the 1/72 model
-
YYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank God I didn't jump on the YF-29. The VF-25 is probably my number one favorite mecha, and I was quite saddened at Bandai's previous attempts. As many hope alongside me, I too am looking forward to that hopefully awesome Armored Valkyrie that doesn't disintegrate upon touch. But in all seriousness, if Bandai is reading this, plz make this even better than the YF-29 and pretty please with sugar on top make it well proportioned with LEGS IN THE CORRECT POSITION IN FIGHTER MODE (!) Now an even bigger question plagues my mind: With so many options, which one should I buy

Yamato 1/60 VF-17 Nightmare Diamond Force
Archer replied to charger69's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Well...maybe... They need to incorporate a mechanism to store rifle components, landing gear, as well as now, missile bays. Sure, Yamato has done some crazy clever stuff in the past before, but I do think that cramming all that stuff into one leg compartment may be pushing the lines of physcial possibility, unless the leg was super-sized of course. -

The Transformers 3 Thread--A Michael Bay Thread
Archer replied to areaseven's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Besides this Megan Fox issue, is this 3rd installment really only 1 hour and 30 minutes long? Seems really short imo. The first 2 were at least 2 hours long each... -
No Beagle Blow Superior... that blows superior...
Archer replied to EXO's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
So wait, slightly confused here. Did ANYONE get the entire Fuke Prototype, or was that gone with the wind as with the company? It seems that the head sculpt and whatnot was given away in the auction, but what 'bout the actual bike? -
Yamato 1/60 VF-19 Fire Valkyrie (v2.0)
Archer replied to UN Spacy's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Sorry to ask, but I am not too familiar with Macross 7 mech. The one thing keeping me back from purchasing this is the possibility of the other VF-19 variants. Is the kai the only vf-19 with long sweep wings? All the other variants I have seen have short forward swept wings, and I am not too much of a fan of those. Is this kai the only one with "long" wings? -
Just got inFAMOUS 2. Pure Awesome! Totally improves on the first game and adds a lot more to boot. The controls and Cole's movements are much more fluid and precise, and you get a sense of continuity in his movement, like real parkour. Beyond that, DLC includes a katana, and thats good enough for me Btw, Hero = Ice Powers, Infamous = Fire Powers. ^Cool system that almost forces you to play through the game twice to get all the goodies!
-
Lolz. I don't think the gundam designs are terrible (see my post above). I just don't really get the whole "panning a whole century" story concept or the weird pokedex used to activate the mobile suit... Also, I agree with others that the hand-drawn stuff looks out of place in the CG setting.

I do kinda like the "triple changing" concept behind the gundam (I am into that kind of stuff ). For some reason though, I see a PG in the near future

Gundam Show Thread - MSG thru GQuuuuuuX
Archer replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I know I am hatin' a little early, but this new gundam series (at least the gundam designs) feels like Sunrise took Gunpla Builder and then G Gundam, and decided to mate the two. *Babbam!* out pops this new gundam series. I am o.k. with the main mobile suit in that it looks like some random design from 00, but what is up with that red one? Its like char decided to pilot the neo Russia Bolt gundam, but forgot to pack all his awesome on his way to pick it up.....- 3995 replies

Wait, all this info comes from some guy @ animesuki? We should have a native Japanese speaker translate the *true* meaning for us. If there are no definitives from Bandai, then I could still keep hope for that PG Unicorn

So wait, is the new controller the system itself? Or will there be a supplement TV attachement? Or is this controller an attachment to the old wii itself? I is lost.... Back to all seriousness, I can't see this selling if its above $100.
-
Probably the two toppers on my want list just got shot down Really was looking forward to a PG Unicorn, as well as MG Kshatriya. I understand Kshatriya with its entire metal endoskeleton, but can anyone explain to me why Unicorn was shot down? A PG Unicorn probably will be the most expensive release to date, but still, I would gander that it would sell much better than even the 00 raiser with its much more audience accepted frame and from a generally better recieved series (Gundam UC). I am not too good with economics (majoring in biochem ), so can some one open my eyes a little?

Gundam Show Thread - MSG thru GQuuuuuuX
Archer replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
QFT The image looks interesting, but does anyone else think that it looks a lot (a little too much imho) like....the gundams from 00? I think even the collor fins (based on the image) look to be replicated. Dunno, maybe I am just throwing things out of proportion. There is one, and only ONE thing I wish from this new Gundam series though (well, technically, its two). Plz, make the series more realistic (at least as realistic as giant combatant robots can get). By this, I mean no 16 year old unstable "gaaaaaaaarrrrggggghhhhhh" boy, and no "pew pew" laser fights as some put it. Alas, I probably just scripted the foundation for the new series as it always is with gundam though.....- 3995 replies

Just a heads up for those that haven't seen it yet, but inFamous 2 comes to only $20 if you're willing to trade in 2 (select) PS3 games at Gamestop. Planning on getting rid of Killzone 3 and Crysis 2 because I beat both and don't care much for multiplayer in both (and inFamous 2 seems like a much better game to boot).
