    Stand might be exclusive - not sure. Looks like a cool stand though. Maybe they used the same blue.

    Yeah, sent a request to my proxy. Hopefully they get back to me soon http://takaratomymall.jp/shop/g/g4904810827825/ I don't think the Tomy mall stuff goes on sale anywhere else. Seeing some ebay listings for $120 already.

    Anytime. I'm not taking chances! haha

    Cool stuff David. Welp, what a kick in the balls. They finally put out bluestreak and they are limiting it to 2,000 pieces. That's not a ton... maybe half of a normal run? or a 1/3? I feel like Tigertrack was "limited" but he was everywhere. I went ahead and put an order through a proxy buyer. frakk it. Not paying $200 for this guy haha. Also some tracks pics, Looking really good!

    Or Sony offered them enough and saw the megabucks transformers pulled in.

    I'm having visions of Transformers meets something not that good. It would be interesting to know the rights of the merchandizing though.

    Beat you by a minute haha I wonder what this will mean for new toy rights. I'm sure if they make films they will make toys. Seems like Harmony gold is out of the picture????

    I hope Arcadia re-releases them at some point.

    Nothing about the current mold impresses me really. I'd rather have the old mold where at least the fighter looks realistic, and a semi- goofy bot mode.
  11. Gakken85
    I think it's harder for Macross fans too, because the fighter modes are so bad. The robot modes are ok, but a little dated, and I just hate the transformation. I feel their scale is a little off too. They should be a bit taller than the autobot cars, but a bit smaller than Mp-10. I'm still hoping for an update at some point.

    I agree that Hot Rod and Ultra Magnus were kind of the beginning of the end for realistic 80's designs and clunky robots. At the end of the day plot means nothing, because these are commercials for cartoons and even the first 2 seasons weren't amazing stories, though some were very solid. It's all about the design for me. I think Victory is different though because of the Japanese flavor. All the combining nonsense, and the obvious Gundam influences. It's just a really cool mash-up in my mind. I really don't get how a macross/gundam fan wouldn't love the hell out of a flying Optimus Prime, when Prime already has a Gundam face plate. Also the Mospeda like fighter/shuttle mode. It's similar, but different and hits all the right spots to interest me. I was vaguely aware of it as a kid but I'd moved on. It's not so much about nostalgia as completionist nostalgia. Plus the old Japanese transformers that were hot in those markets had a certain mystique back in the day Also, it harkens back to the power master/head master age and this is the first MP to have those gimmicks which is exciting. And finally it just looks like an amazing robot with tons of solid gimmicks and thought poured into it. Could potentially be the coolest MP yet released. I still wouldn't spend $200 bucks on a 10 year old seeker mold that should be less than $100 haha. Call me when they update fighter mode. Also, I'm stoked that my new formers are on the ground in my city, though I probably wont get them til tomorrow. I do plan on doing a review and comparing him to some things I have.

    WOoohoo my 0D is in town. Probably won't get it delivered until tomorrow though - but I have the day off so it should be nice.
  14. Gakken85
    Space brick is totally a better value than a seeker re-issue. Seekers are like 80 bucks of toy.
  15. Gakken85
    I'd love the SOC line to do some SDF stuff. A full destroid line and the SDF ship
  16. Gakken85
    nice
  17. Gakken85

    It's just a bit of cloud knocking into the shoulder.

    I would imagine reaching to turn off your alarm clock can be a dicey proposition Good stuff.
  22. Gakken85
    You should get the Arcadia from Harlock to go with those two I still think Bandai should designate the ships different from the chogokin line itself though.
  23. Gakken85
    Batteries are a pain in the ass though haha. You can just play the show in the background imo
  24. Gakken85
    Love my VF-11b! Can't wait to get my Star saber! Enjoy.
  25. Gakken85
    Can't wait to get my 0D in the next few days. You can def see the gray in there, just not a lot of it.
