    The Kaempfer was up for preorder at Anime Export but sold already out in approximately 2 minutes. I read somewhere that Bandai is cracking down on proxy stores for TWE items so maybe this is a sign that Anime Export can’t acquire as much stock as in the past so that is why it sold out so quickly.

    @lechuck I hoe the base still has a marking pointing out what Suit this is. I hate when someone deviates from an established and consistent patter.

    Don’t forget the VF-2SS.

    My copy dropped into my Anime Export stash today! After getting my copy of Suiken recently I'm not looking forward having this one in hand. Suiken is the worst MPG so far and since Seizan shares a skeleton with with him, I expect the same from MPG-05. As bad as Suiken is he will probably be eclipsed by Kaen and/or Raiden itself.

    I would have assumed to be on purpose. To make Guts more animal-like so you can put him in more perched poses.

    I hope Sony announces a PS5 Pro before FF7 Rebirth comes out. With regards to Sephiroth being hit with a chair by Aerith: I'm totally going to recreate that once I have the BringArts toys.

    After seeing the Titan Fort Max being reissued, I'm fairly certain that the next Transformers HasLab project will be a Devastator.

    Are NFTs still a thing? I thought they are practically useless at the moment?

    But that is a big problem it is not the Kämpfer Amazing piloted by Tatsuya Yuuki I mean Meijin Kawaguchi from the best Gundam show ever. It is just boring old Kämpfer in blue.

    I'm very whelmed with the excitement of the PulseCon reveals. The only one I'm looming forward is the Galvatron repaint of Energon Megatron. If they do a Cliffjumper or Nemesis Prime out of the Animated toys I'm also on board since the original Animated Nemesis Prime (technically Optimus Prime Black Ver.) is one of my favorite black and teal toys. However, I don’t feel that the style they chose works for the Legacy toy line. There is too many flared out, non straight shapes on them that clash with the lines aesthetic. And while everyone berates the nones on the Prime toys, they fit better into the G1 style in my opinion. What I'm trying to say: They look more like their Animated selves but less like they belong in the Legacy line. Meh on the Rocklords. I'm sure the Hasbro design team struggled with how to incorporate the concept into Legacy and went with the one that makes the least amount of sense to me (i.e. vehicles with extra greebles).

    I would love to get a Kämpfer Amazing but I think this one will stay a pipe dream:

    New Final Fantasy 7 BringArts figures: Barret (¥12000, release 04/24): https://www.anime-export.com/index.php?product=72869 Sephiroth (¥12000, release 06/24): https://www.anime-export.com/index.php?product=72870 Red XIII (¥12000, release 09/24): https://www.anime-export.com/index.php?product=72871 That leaves Vincent, Cid, Yuffie and Cait Sith. I hope they release Vincent and Yuffie so I can have at least my go to party in 6" scale.

    I‘m interested in the SHF Tekken 8 line. Given Bandais terrible track record of finishing lines (looking at you SHF Street Fighter line) I probably pick and choose releases.

    I feel like a merger would reduce Nintendo to a software company or worse an IP provider for Microsoft hardware. From a hardware perspective Nintendo would be getting a powerful technology stack for sure. However, we would probably lose the quirkiness of the Nintendo hardware and Nintendo games would just run on a glorified PC box in the living room. I assume mobile gaming and customer proliferation wouldn’t be at the point it is today if it wasn’t for the Switch and WII respectively. From my perspective we live in an age were hardware plays less and less of a role for games. What matters is the quality of the gameplay. Some Nintendo titles like TotK would certainly benefit from beefier hardware but overall it seems less of a factor at the moment. Keep in mind I don’t own a gaming PC or current consoles at the moment besides the Switch and I’m currently playing Warhammer 40k Boltgun and F-Zero 99.

    ¥218000 is that the regular preorder price or have they inflated it?

    @davidwhangchoi HLJ is having a raffle for buying the MS Nu Gundam: https://www.hlj.com/metal-structure-rx-93-nu-gundam-raffle/ The cutoff date for the raffle is 09/27/23 and you have to be subscribed to the HLJ newsletter to enter it.

    @davidwhangchoi saw that the reservations for the MS Nu Gundam are open at E Knight Media over at TFW: https://www.eknightmedia.com/ms-gundam-char-s-counterattack-rx-93-v-gundam-kaitai-shou-ki-metal-structure-action-figure-by-bandai-tamashii-nations.html The way I understand it is not a preorder but a potential reservation if they get enough stock and they require a non-refundable $100 downpayment: https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/bandai-metal-build-discussion.1115253/page-408#post-21685250

    Here is the amiami tweet regarding the lottery:

    Joy Toy released some images of the Holy Janitors and they look pretty good.. …ugh maybe I just buy the one with the Boltbroom and the Sacred Wipe:
  21. Scyla
    To my knowledge it didn’t. Amiami opened an lottery for it iirc but no other stores had it available.

    The VF-25G Revival set is available at Anime Export (¥32800): https://www.anime-export.com/index.php?product=72514

    They are 3.75" figures no? That is a bummer. I would have bought a 6" Captain Commando for my MvC2 shelf.
  24. Scyla
    Metal Build Providence available at Anime Export (pay now ¥49800): https://anime-export.com/index.php?product=72488 [edit:] sold out now.

    After your description I started to watch the show too. Somehow the main character gives me a lot of B Gata H K vibes. Not sure why that is. After watching the first three episodes I wonder were the story is going to go… I also fairly certain that the manager is not actually hurt. For some reason her MO for hiring new employees is to blackmail them into servitude.
