  1. i dare bandai to re-release it and lets see if i would order it or not...🤣🤣 but again bandai doesn't care cos they be playing the long game...the sticker shock game...🤑
  2. nah, fed-up of waiting....not sure i want another release.....yer hear that bandai! ...bandai: couldnt give a rats***... but bandai decides to re-release it, i will take a look....😐
  3. waiting for a hmr YF-19...cant be too far away? 🙊 mold differences a separate discussion of course...🙊 but of course...a HMR vf-11 (whichever variant) first!!
  4. whoa...thats unexpected! introduced to his work on astonishing x-men... RIP...
  5. ikea has a way of re-releasing products over time (read years?)...so you never know..the detolfs may come back again...at a higher price...😄
  6. cool option for a horizontal display for HMR....maybe there will be some hacks to the braennboll i.e. combining/stacking.... hmm...been watching some billy ikea hacks recently with the backing removed... thanks for the posting @rsvictor1976
  7. I do think arcadia would benefit greatly with some runway space, to focus on lifting up their brand and P/L. They must be under tremendous pressure to keep their margins, just by looking at their announcements and delays. Hence, i would edit bezos out and insert in a Japanese billionaire, who is a macross fan, knowing the japanese inclination to keep IP's in the hands of their own countrymen....😅
  8. What if some company bought another company and....nah.... If only bezos is a macross fan...arcadia could use with some capital injections...
  9. My viewpoint of anime in this genre...always colored/biased by......i guess i just like the close-ups and character art of ye old anime style...its a adjustment for me to take in modern anime that covers this genre... RIP mitsumi inomata who was the character artist/animation director for windaria... and....

  11. Man...not sure if i would want to participate in 31A pre-order debacles...as much as i love the valk... scammers/scalpers would be all over this...🙊 discussion for another thread i suppose...
  12. cant unsee it now...🤣...nvm maybe he/she needed all the speed for a recon mission...🤪

    Hi-Metal R

    By design, SV-51 would benefit from the HMR treatment. Interchangable parts may make it a more sturdy valk, instead of relying on pure moving joints. Only thing is the timing of the release, as i would not relish the price of the HMR to be close to the old 1/60 51's. On the secondary market SV-51 CF 1/60 scale could be had for 24k yen....and with VF-0A abt 18/17k yen...a HMR SV-51 could very well push the 25k yen envelope, if it takes its time to release..oh well....

    and not forgetting, SV-51!
  15. The photographer forgot to light or misplaced a dark reflector, for the gold area, on the shin of the leg...i wonder if he got pointed out for that...
  16. I have no idea what merch is included with which 4k release links. 😵 Is there a summary?
  17. I dont mind matt per se, but (esp w the revivals(?)), i see bandai going with what seems like a no overcoat, bare plastic route, which looks hmm dare i say it...cheap. Is it my perception? I honestly am not quite sure, but I think that's what's been going on recently... For me, as a presonal preference, i seem to prefer a semi-gloss or glossier 262. The gold scheme somehow benefits more with an accompanying gloss on the non-gold parts. ....imho anyway...
  18. The turquoise in the eyes and sensors do look nice as a contrast against the brown(?)...however the turquoise splashes are too few to make much impact.. Also does that look more matt then kieth's 252? Bandai saving costs? For the draken scheme, i prefer it with a semi-glossy finish, which i thk kieth's was(?)..i cant remember and my draken is in storage...
  19. I still remember opening kieth's 262HS....breathtaking...dat tampo....chef's kiss!....pictures dont do it justice...
