I thought I was pretty clear in my earlier post that the Spanish and Italian releases were official Bandai, just with an altered wording box, probably with stickers. Also, the Taiwan Super bootleg toy is not a copy of the Bandai Strike, but of the Takatoku Super. Why? Because it has the Takatoku style head lasers and obviously the armor is the standard solid super armor (tips do not pop off to fit a strike cannon). It just has the red vs. yellow stripes is all, so people automatically think strike. Additionally, the Taiwan Super bootleg came in 2 versions, one with the valkyrie molded in white as in the above auction, and one with the valk molded in grey, which I have:

Anyone stay for the end credit clip? 415124[/snapback] Sure did! Mainly because the first movie had a end credit clip too which explains why the monkey is still undead in this movie. BTW anyone play Monkey Island? For some reason I got the sense I was watching a live action version of it. 415132[/snapback] I didn't know to stay. What is the end clip and also why is the monkey still undead?

No, just Roy 1S and Hikaru 1J. I have a cheap lot of the destroids in the For Sale section if anyone is looking. 416222[/snapback] you do? where? I didn't see it. 416257[/snapback] Here http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...80entry416380

So is this thing delayed or what? I thought Action HQ was to have them out in early July but I have heard nothing about my pre-order. Noel? anyone?

Looks like the military color variant from before when Shogo paints it red is going to be released on 8/31.

Put it outside in the sun and rain for a couple weeks and it should look pretty yellow and crusty.

i think the one u mention boba is a taiwan bootleg. 415663[/snapback] Right, that is the Taiwan bootleg, of which there is a white and grey valk version. The Bandai 1990 did have official releases in a Spanish language box as well as an Italian language box. But I forget if they were just stickers added to the standard box or not.

The HCMs have better proportions than the Toynamis, as well as a better nose and cockpit sculpt that make them look sleeker in gerwalk and jet. The Toynami nose sculpt is particularly ass-tastic. HCMs have better plastic as well.

Venture Brothers is a great show. It's hilarious how it riffs on Johnny Quest, Fantastic Four, and all that. Harvey Birdman is very clever in how it turns all those politically incorrect 60's cartoon characters into lawsuits. Both are very well written. The rest is ass.

I just got the Shin Getter 1 Revoltech. I had hoped it would at least be teh same size as their Getter 1 Roll Out figure so I could display them together, but it is much smaller

I'm pretty sure the one still shot of the guy with a bloody forehead in an upside down car, it's a Fiero. Check out that ribbed door trim. Totally 1984-1987 Fiero door. They probably used kit cars for the Diablo and any others that could pass.

Looks pretty quality to me, I'm taking the free shipping offer. It will look good next to my custom 1/6 Hikaru in TV flight suit. <TriumphTheDogVoice/> And it comes with a Skull squadron patch that you can have your Mom sew on your shirt! </TriumphTheDogVoice>

That guy's on crack. So is the shlub that offered him $800! Sorry if that shlub is a member of these boards.... 408296[/snapback] I wouldn't pay that much either, but that actually is the rarest version of the 4 types of Ride Armor packaging that was released. Very hard to find.

Years ago I was working at Toys R Us during the christmas season. One night Glenn Danzig's tour bus pulls in so he can shop for action figures. He's like 5 ft tall with a 7 ft body guard who looked like Rob Zombie with a cowboy hat. He was looking for a Batman Legends Riddler, which was hot at the time I guess. So I went in back and found him one. As I was coming back towards him, the body guard almost pummeled me before he realized what I was doing. Danzig said "thanks, man" as I handed him the Riddler. That is all, but the rest of the night we all walked around going "Mother!!"

They're all made by Gakken, from the 80's, except the Invid which is either by Matchbox or a Playmates reissue,

"Lead whore", that's hilarious It would be great if that's what ot said in the credits. I thought I saw Vin Diesel in one of the tv commercials for it, is that the HIM you are referring to? If so, they must have pushed an assload of cash at him...though he hasn't done too much lately and probably needed the payday.

There must've been tons of them laying around from the soldier's cracked up guns. I'd doubt only the three used on Magneto survived Shockwave's attack.

Has no one mentioned the obvious plothole that Logan could have used a cure dart on Phoenix instead of killing her? Sure it would have been tough but he could have kept it behind his back while she burned the flesh off his front side walking up to her. Since he loved her so much you'd think he'd at least try any alternative to avoid having to kill her. We find out later it's apparently a temp fix but no one knew that, and besides they could just re-juice her as needed. Or have that Leech kid hang around with her all the time. Seems to me that any future movie should have to deal with the fact that any mutant can temporarily de-power with the serum if they need to. Like so Rogue and Bobby can get busy, or Hank to de-fur or whatever. Also, no way the government would just forget about such a serum as a weapon.

You are right, in the anime there is a monitor screen that comes up from behind the handle bars that is backed by said armor piece. That's how Shogo 'sees' in robo mode rather than some clear window. But this toy still friggin rocks. It looks like the fingers are even articulated.

The thing is, those items he's auctioning are apparently the very items that FM sold him and has not been paid for. You'd probably be pretty pissed if someone did that to you.

Props to Excillon for a smooth trade deal. He belongs on the SSL. Greg

Props to Connor99 as well, great guy to work deals with.

"YOU CAN TELL THAT THIS IS THE SUPER ULTRA RARE MATCHBOX VERSION OF THE SCOTT BERNARD MACROSS SAGA CYCLONE MOTORCYCLE / ARMOR FROM 1985!" Man do you think this guy used enough colors, bolded words, large print and exclamat!on po!nts in the description or what?!!!!! "Do you remember this?!!!!" "What do you have to say about this!!!!" I can say this won't be selling for 1500 dollars is what i have to say about this. 390515[/snapback] That particular box is in fact the rarest type that the Mospeada toy was released in. Very hard to find, though I would not pay what he is asking. The toy itself is the same as all the other Singapore made types.
