    Well, you still keep saying "Lee-jee-ohs" instead of "Legg-ee-ohs," but I guess you'll never learn how to pronounce that properly.

    You might want to take that Guld figure out, rather than leaving him against the seat; the PVC plastic is known to react with the paint on the figure -- and that of the painted seat -- and you may find Guld stuck to the seat before you know it. Trying to remove him afterwards will likely cause damage to both painted surfaces. Best to just leave him in the box, if you're planning on posing the YF-21 in flight.

    Is that what you youngsters are calling it? Those of us left behind called it the 'snap.'

    Does this make me one of your "great people?"

    Even if that production number is true, that's a ridiculous assumption to make; only two of the five models produced were ever depicted with SSPs in the animation. That's an even more ridiculous assumption. Do you really think Bandai assumes collectors will want a set of SDFM SSPs and a set of DYRL SSPs for every DX VF-1 they own?

    Geeky fanboy makes good!

    I remember when a significant portion of the fanbase were saying the same about Enterprise back in 2001... I'll bet they'd have been far more forgiving if they'd known just how far the apple would fall from the tree in the decades that followed. The Kelvin timeline? Discovery? Picard? Knowing the depths the franchise has sunk to, we should've fought a lot harder to #SaveEnterprise back in 2005.

    Especially with a few additional markings...

    Neither, dude. It's just a forced perspective composition, with the Legioss considerably closer to camera.

    Same reason we got the T70 X-Wings, and the First Order TIE fighters, and Threepio's red arm... Use all those designs the fans remember and love, just change them enough to piss those fans off.

    Forget about it. Worst comes to worst, they leave you negative feedback for deadbeat bidding. No big loss.

    Crazy scalper prices there.

    Five minutes, by my count. About the same as Max's VF-1A.

    Oh, I didn't realize Super 7 had moved on to Southern Cross. That AJAC would fit right in with their ReAction line.

    You're welcome.

    Wow, that may be the worst DeLorean toy I've ever seen.

    I enjoyed much of Discovery, at least as its own "alternate universe" thing. It's unacceptable as canon Star Trek, but it fits with the wanna-be Star Wars aesthetic of the Kelvin timeline films. Picard, on the other hand, has too much of the legitimate Star Trek cast to pretend it's anything other than a nonsensical fanfic written and directed by tone-deaf hacks. Which is to say, Discovery is as palatable as The Force Awakens... and Picard is as excretable as The Rise of Skywalker.

    Yeah, we wish they'd have kept releasing HMR Macross, too.

    I would've preferred that route -- like with modern Valkyrie toys -- where a variety of pre-posed hands could be swapped out for greater display options...

    It's a metal joint, so the easiest way to take the tension off is to cause it to contract. Stick it in your freezer for a while; that should help. I'm familiar with 墓場の画廊, of course, but I can never resist an opportunity to make fun of Google Translate! Seriously, machine translation that can parse Japanese is still decades away.

    Oh, that's right. The marking guide. I guess that does sort of make them TV-specific, then. Cheers, JVM.

    Other than the obnoxious Tyrone Magnus (from the YouTube video posted above), of course. He's "very excited."

    I'm just wondering why those "VF" markings would be considered TV-specific, since Takatoku put those stickers on their Strike Valkyries as well...
