  1. @no3Ljm, @anime52k8 I love the Ver. Ka design on the Char‘s Counterattack suits. I also like the green of the Psycho Frame. It gives a nice contrast to the yellow orange highlights. However I don’t like the transformation since it makes the Gundam look too elongated and the legs turn into sticks. Same with the Unicorn in Destroy mode. Anyhow, I don’t think a MB Nu Gundam will look like the Ver. Ka since the Hi-Nu doesn’t look anything like it.
  2. Neat. Now do a Metal Build Nu Gundam Bandai. In other news my first MB Hi-Nu is out for delivery after sitting in a warehouse for a while so I am excited.
  3. Apparently TFCon was this weekend and they had a 3rd Party panel. Here are the slides courtesy of TFW2005: https://news.tfw2005.com/2022/10/22/tfcon-chicago-2022-3rd-party-panel-slides-in-full-468486 For me there were not many new reveals. The highlight for me was FansToys with an Ultra Magnus with a inner Prime figure. Not 100% certain on the face sculpt but I am excited:
  4. Do 8+ old children count towards the "fandom" that might or might no want more Beast Wars toys?
  5. I think Getsuei pulled it off the best. Yukikaze will be probably a bit worse because of the extended size. Kaen could suffer a lot because he is probably the hips and lower torso. Seizan will probably be the same as Suiken here. Suiken’s issues are the additional (unwarranted) panels on the shoulders and "half" the train sticking off his back. Not a fan of the super busy look in bot mode. [edit:] I think combined mode will be the worst mode. Maybe one of the worst combiners since Power Core. Elbow looks super limited, the ratchets for up and down shoulders movement feel weak on my Shouki and I wonder if he will have a swivel in his biceps and outward shoulder movement. The leg’s also seem to have terrible knee movement. I wonder if there will be a add on set company like Crazy Devy that only ever releases sets for MPG Raiden.
  6. Yay, another opportunity to request a DX Chogokin VF-2SS and Macross Elysion.
  7. Is there a comparison image between the Metal Build and Chogokin Freedom Gundam? I would be particularly interested in a height comparison.
  8. Horrible (bot-mode); I ordered one!
  9. I thought season 2 was already announced. There is a trailer for season 2 on YouTube but it contains spoilers for the second half of season 1 so I would discourage you from watching it. [edit:] I’m sorry if I spoiled the show for you by mentioning that there will be more of the show.
  10. Thanks, I appreciate you filling me in on the background of the Overlord light novel. I’m curious what your thoughts are on Birdie Wing once you finished the first season.
  11. That makes a lot more sense why you have the story arcs with the coliseum and dwarf kingdom. Bur as a result the story of the arc feels disjointed. I feel like it would have made sense having Ainz make preparations to raze Re-Estize kingdom taking up all of season 4. To me it seems like a logical continuation to the end of season 3. However with first half of the season having Ainz portrayed as someone who want to establish prosperous relationships with other nations and doesn’t want the humans under his reign to suffer the turn on the kingdom, the means deployed and the outcome seem a far too stark of a contrast compared to what we‘ve seen so far. Regarding Birdie Wing I think you like the series for all the right reasons. Have you finished it already?
  12. Yeah, you are spot on on the VF-31. Didn’t parse the vertical stabilizers and canards correctly. Theory debunked.
  13. So this logo has the VF-25, the YF-29 and the YF-19 on it. Does that mean we will be getting a WWM YF-19 soon? Is the new YF-19 HG model kit marked as WWM release?
  14. Did you like season 4 of Overlord? I was whelmed. Not much stuff seems to happen while they were meddling with the kingdom. I liked season 1-3 but I binged those while I watched season 4 on a week by week basis. I really enjoyed the show. I have no deep knowledge about golf; so you are telling me it is not like this in the real sport?
  15. Maybe it even comes pre-yellowed out of the box!
  16. I think the biggest problem with Wildrider is the not accurate color. A 3rd Party company could make new hood piece but nothing will change the fact that he is the wrong shade of white.
  17. New Albedo statue: I wonder why no sculptor is able to capture Abedo‘s craziness? Sexy is all they are capable of it seems.
  18. Given that all my issues with MPG Raiden stem from Kaen and how he not really forms a lower abdomen, I wouldn’t be mad if a 3rd Party company produced as set of pants that make the thighs, lower abdomen and help to stabilize Shouki (maybe even have an armature that moves Raiden‘s head to the top of Shouki). Doesn‘t necessarily if it transforms into a train or even a Kaen looking robot.
  19. I was worried that this is the announcement for the Grand Slam add-on set for ¥8999. Anyhow, I was reminiscing about how much I liked Gundam Unicorn. I really want a Metal Build take on it. I would prefer if it didn’t transform but rather have a separate releases of the Unicorn Mode and Destroy Mode. This would really help to get better proportions in Destroy Mode because the GMCFF ones are too lanky and the limbs are too elongated. It would also make it a lot more articulated if the transformation gimmick doesn’t get into the way.
  20. I hope you like it. I really enjoy mine with all the options you get in that set. I prefer the regular version. Even if it is bare plastic the glossy white looks better to me than the „dirty“ white paint on the Chronicle White version.
  21. In the official images Tarn looks as funny as expected with his long thighs. I‘m looking forward to a black Lio Convoy and a black repaint of Armada Prime (the black bendy Prime is a glaring hole in my black and teal collection). Glad to hear that Deathsaurus will be a Commander class. I don’t have any desire to own it but people were speculating that he might be a new HasLab project. If he is not that would mean that the next HasLab project could be an appropriately sized G1 Overlord with appropriate gimmicks. Which is what I ultimately want. That or a Masterpiece release that doesn’t have the terrible proportions of the Fan Hobby one.
  22. Yeah, it looks super similar at first glance. Maybe an upscale or it’s just that they both are sci-fi tanks. I wonder how Tarn will look like in a straight pose. His thighs look super long. He is posed kneeling even on the box.
  23. Here they are. TFW just published them: https://news.tfw2005.com/2022/09/30/hasbro-pulsecon-2022-transformers-panel-round-up-466460 [edit:] Lol, that lion face: Is Tarn a remold of Skullgrin?
