    Yup, it's just a downward spiral from here on out, but it's a fun ride!

    I finally got my hands on mine, and the VF-4G has quickly risen to the top of my favorite valk list. There's a lot of nostalgia behind that, but the chunky battroid mode along with the graceful, elegant lines of fighter mode also won me over. If this is Yamato's swan song with valks, they certainly went out on a fantastic note. By the way, those Flashback and Focker customs look great!

    For MP-04, I think you'd be hard pressed to find one for its original price of $200 right now, and eBay prices for it are ridiculous at $450+. Use that as a gauge and weigh it against your own budget. MP-04 looks nice when standing with the Alternators and Binaltechs, but is completey oversized with the Henkeis and Classics. Scale and Transformers don't really mix, but MP Starscream and Soundwave look fine standing up to MP-10. MP-10 is still the tallest of the three, but not by much. And yes, MP Lambor will fit in MP-10 trailer. Would I trade MP-04 for an MP-10? No. Sure MP-10 has a much better alt mode and will be the size standard for all upcoming MPs, but MP-04's size and and heft makes it a great stand alone piece for OP. I also like its blockiness and chunkiness in bot mode, and the little gimmicks are just icing on the cake.

    I always thought the gray area with the red stripe was his hind quarters, but I guess it's his "calves". I remember seeing that thing in Target thinking it was a lazy transformation for something so big. Just bend the big guy over and voila-instant alt mode. I beginning to think the stock pic for the new Metroplex's fortress mode shows it as being mistransformed. The black ramp that extends out of his chest just looks wrong against his right leg.

    <snort> I wonder what kind of sweet action Metroplex got in that pose. Sorry, I'll stop now.
  6. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Well, at least the new one isn't bent over on his knees with his butt in the air in alt mode:
  7. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Holy crap, I never thought I'd see another Guyver toy. And a good looking one at that.

    Yep, I do love IDW's take on Megs, but it really should have been Voyager sized. I'm glad Hasbro is taking on full blown triple changers, but Springer is the only one I'll be getting at his point.
  9. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Oh, and a big honkin 2' Metroplex!
  10. Valkyrie Hunter D
    From NY Toy Fair- New Voyager Springer looks pretty dang good! Well, bot mode at least... Voyager Blitzwing, with TFA inspired face: Stealth bomber Megs!! Deluxe sized though. Finally! Trailblazer <ahem> Trailcutter:

    I picked up Arkham City Bats and Catwoman today, and after seeing the atrocious paint job that male Shepard got, it's hard to believe they came from the same company. They both look great, especially Catwoman-it's the best looking figure she's ever had IMHO. By the way, if you're in the Bay Area in CA, Legends in Vallco Mall will give you 20% off if you buy both Bats and Selina.

    , This store has Hegemon: Chimungmung. I got my Art Feather Bumblebee from them, no hassles. Apparently, there are already KO's of Hegemon, so that may explain the difference in color.
  13. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Wow. In the Predaking duel, my money is on Mastermind Creations.
  14. Valkyrie Hunter D
    You're not helping, Hobo! It's crazy how many licenses Hot Toys is sitting on. Heck I'm still waiting on their Captain Harlock.
  15. Valkyrie Hunter D
    I was afraid to ask. Besides, cash was low that day and I had to get going. I spent a good 5 minutes just gawking at it though. I had a similar incident with ED-209, but it may have been for the better with all its cracking issues and whatnot.
  16. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Um, can someone make me NOT want Hot Toys' Iron Monger? I got a good look at the dang thing at Frank & Sons and now I really want one. I figure it would look great with my Iron Man and War Machine, but I already blew my toy allowance on the VF-4

    I know its kinda weird to have a space helicopter, but I would love to have seen an Ajax from Southern Cross made in some kit or toy form. Ooh, and Wanzers! Front Mission mechs need big scale love.
  18. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Whoops, I meant at least 1/18 scale to be in scale with GI Joes! What I've always been waiting for is a model of Riding Bean's car. Rally's ride is easy to find enough, but the Roadbuster is just too obscure I reckon.
  19. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Another vote for Madox, preferably in 1/35 scale for awesome anti-tank scenes. Gawd that would be glorious. Hyper Unit Dangaioh, anyone?
  20. Valkyrie Hunter D
    That explains a lot; I liked Galaxy Force Prime too. As far as IDW designs goes, if HasTak makes that killer looking Megatron that has a stealth bomber alt mode, I'm all for it.
  21. Valkyrie Hunter D
    I wasn't going to buy any of the Beast Hunters stuff, but the new OP is growing on me, especially with the Star Saber in hand. He sure does look angry though.
  22. Valkyrie Hunter D
    I don't think they are going to be releasing their version of Soundwave with the new MP coming out. It looked horrible anyways with all the engraved detail they added to it. Shockwave looks good, but it does need some gray in the torso area to break up that solid mass of purple.
  23. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Wow, it's that kind of nerd rage that makes me ashamed of my hobbies sometimes.
  24. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Yup, my PS2 is still kickin. Proud to say my Saturn and Dreamcast are still spinning as well, though my VMU batteries are probably dead now.
  25. Valkyrie Hunter D
    After 12 years, Sony has finally pulled the plug on the PS2. My original model is still going strong, even after being modded. I really hope it lasts because I still have a lot of parts to collect in Front Mission 5! Thanks for the good times Sony, I really wish your latest model was as durable.
