    That wasn't a Takara reissue, it was Hasbro Asia. They are actually being quite clever by looking at what is selling for big aftermarket prices and reissuing them at a higher than original retail but lower than aftermarket prices. Well done Hasbro, well done.

    Yeah I've bought from Captured Prey as 'twas a very positive experience. I would continue to do so except I'm in Australia, so postage ain't fun.
  3. Silverstreak
    I'm gonna go with yep

    Looks good. I'm all in for FansToys because of the cartoon accuracy but GPs Slag is impressive. However, this is just line art. Much can change between paper and release.

    I just realised that I have a pair of socks whose colour scheme matches this valk perfectly

    That sucks dude. So what parts are loose? I'm assuming shoulders and knees?
  7. Silverstreak
    I don't have a 171 yet and this looks nice so I'll probably pick it up.

    That part is hidden in bot mode. If you look at the top of the front wheel wells and see the thin silver stripe, that is where the torso stripe is in truck mode.Hope that made sense

    Nope. Definitely not just you.

    Of the ones off that list that I have, only Rhinox has a problem. Skids and Whirl are issue free, no loose joints at all. Once you swap Skids hip joints around he's a brilliant little toy ^This

    Anything still happening with these? I need them in my life

    Hey wow! That is cool. Fighter mode looks good but that's it for me with this. Gerwalk is ok and I'm not a fan of battroid.

    Just transformed mine. Wow. That is the least fun thing to transform that I own. And I have Binaltech Grimlock . Ankles are loose. So loose that i dont trust it to stand up unassisted. Good thing is you can get to them really easily it seems. So what's the recommendation for die cast? Clear nail polish or something else? FAST pack leg bits don't even stay on on mine. The tabs don't grip at all they just fall off I'll have to try to build them up with something. And also I can't for the life of me get the uniboob to go back into the chest all the way so the panel under it can plug in. I know I'm doing something wrong but I'm too scared to push harder on stuff in case something snaps. Apart from that I didn't scratch anything. As long as you take your time and be careful it's not a problem. And it looks FANTASTIC in battroid mode. Sooooooo cool. For me the positives outweigh the negatives by a lot so I'm a very happy camper. I'll have to take some decent photos and post them up. All I need now is a stand and a fold booster..

    Yeah I figured the heavier things went closer to the fuselage. I threw a few missiles on just after I took those photos and the setup doesn't look right, hence the question. But I'm a bit surprised that you say asymmetry being ok. I figured that you'd want to keep it as symmetrical as possible to avoid having more drag on one side than the other.

    Just got this in the mail. And as my first experience of a 19, I am impressed so far. Will try Gerwalk and Battroid modes later. Although, I have found it a bit difficult to get Isamu into the cockpit properly. He doesn't want to sit low enough. I had to spread his legs with a screwdriver (ahem) to get him to sit flat on the seat. Question to those in the know: Is there a correct/incorrect way to go about missile loadouts/configurations? I have no idea whether there is a standard for what goes where and what can go with what. Or doesn't it matter at all?

    I'd definitely buy it if they reissued. I'd prefer a FB2012 but any version would be an insta-buy.
  17. Silverstreak
    Soon I hope?
  18. Silverstreak
    Cool. Thanks.

    Quick question as I've decided to get this: I usually buy stuff like this from HLJ, but am a bit cautious given the issues that people have had with returns/exchanges from Amiami. How are HLJ to deal with if it goes pear shaped?
  20. Silverstreak
    Saw today, was impressed.
  21. Silverstreak
    Awesome. I want, nay, need 3 of these.
  22. Silverstreak
    Considering Cherno's cockpit is in its chest, I would love to see it try to look down the scope of that rifle.
  23. Silverstreak
    Worth a look.

    The question I have is: Striker Eureka has 6 anti-Kaiju missiles that if it can get off basically spell the end of any Kaiju. Why the hell aren't there anti-Kaiju missiles batteries all around the pacific rim and on destroyers and whatnot? It would have made the wall a much more viable option.
  25. Silverstreak
    And what about Australians? As an Aussie I'm highly offended by those TERRIBLE accents the Striker Eureka team had. It's so stereotypical of Hollywood. They are evil I tells ya! Evil!!!
