  1. Yea nothing like an old close up to reconfirm the thoughts!In light of the arm split down the spine, was looking for the split line. I gather it to be the ridge of the gold frame area in the middle of the spine, but if so do the arms look unequal in length? The arm holding the shield would be as long as the fuselage till the leg nozzles?
  2. Looks like the tail rudder will unfold to become a larger diamond shaped shield.
  3. I get the point on A-listing to sell the movie, but I also feel studio's often overlook good casting. Good casting is half the movie sold. Otherwise the audience will not get invested in the character and subsequently the movie. An A-lister cast wrongly cast can sink the movie or even the A lister's reputation...*cough* Tonto *cough* A B-lister who fits the character description well, can pull crowds via good reviews or to see a breakout star...
  4. I dont mind arcadia pricing their toys high, as they obviously see the demand there. But for goodness sake, Add Tampo, Effect parts, Stands, or make your product innovative (more opening hatches? magnetised gunpods/fueltanks? LED's?) Something that would differentiate the product other than scale... Keep your customers happy! Quality used to be a good reason for price, but when your compeitors catch up on the quality front as well, you gotta differentiate by adding something else. Ok rant over.
  5. Thats what i thought too...Messer has all the emotional points... mano o mano with keith, serious attitude, liked by kids? (frm the podcast comments) plus i thk kaname has the hots for him.... there is a backstory to the scar... the story of SCARFISH!
  6. anon posted from 4chan boards yesterday...enjoy!
  7. Dare i say, question of the series today. where is that TV falling off the shelf by the cat gif when you need it...
  8. Could that ...Be...anymore nostalgic. Seriously hope i dont hum the tune while watching the movie.
  9. If the wings do form the chest then we can have nipple missiles cos the draken can have missile pods on the wing too..
  10. VF-14 meaning the nose becomes the head? and the cockpit becomes the back? As it is i already thk the gerwalk is complicated to transform as a DX toy, I cant even imagine the battorid... Following the idea that the shoulders hold the wing till the tips, then its possible the wings fold back somehow to form the back. Thats another cape look. If they dont fold it would be kinda akward having the wings hanging from the sholders... btw looking at the model mock-up seems like the nose is split down the middle. Whether that opens up to hold the hips or reveal the head remains to be seen...
  11. hmm dare i ask....maxmilla or 1 roy... or neither and get the 31/262 DX

    Hi-Metal R

  15. whoa thats not half bad! am sure someone will come up with a transaparent canopy hack too... btw if u do have the difference on black vs grey lining on the kit, would be most happy to see it...
  16. Shogo...yea that was rocking! All i remember was pretending i was in a landmate ala appleseed and blowing robots away! I forgot what the story was about but thanks for the shogo ref...brings back happy memories...
  17. EMU...Educator Mentor Unit joking..just a play on abbreviations...Love the name! Nice job!
  18. Ah right now i see it! Always thought they split in half ala a normal VF's... So we have a high possibility of a vf-9 transformation in the draken. The only loose end on the shoulder/arm transformation would be how the arms go under what looks to be the front intake shoulders then (or perhaps it doesnt go under...?) Time will tell how it would hold up structurally in a DX! Might get this just for the sake of experiencing this unique transforming mechanism but i must silence the doubting first time ever in a DX fear! And as for da head, thats gonna be the final reveal!
  19. woohooo! Its abt time!Thoughwhere are warlock and cipher dang it!
  20. VF-9 transformations have been vague to me. Its arms are still side by side on the undercarriage, and merely rotates itself out to lay under the wings.. In the draken, it looks like its all above in a straight spine. This so called spine then rotates 90 degress to form the shoulder bones (so to speak). I suspect the wings are somehow still attached to a huge shoulder piece whic are the air intakes. 1. It depends on how sturdy those connections are to the intakes i suppose. 2. There needs to be an under wing brace if the drones are still attached. I cant see a way of them hanging off like that, unless point 1 is now extremely reinforced! .... 3. If the spine forms the arms, then the head must be hidden in the fuselage behind the cockpit?? Looks like no space pope in the draken if so!
