    Someone buying the live action movie rights was the best and worst thing that could happen to Robotech. If the movie is ever made it could bring new life to the property. Even if it sucked and nobody liked it. There's still a good chance it could make enough money for a sequel. On the other hand if the movie is development hell forever then none of that can happen. To make matters worst the deal might limit what HG do can with Robotech on their own.

    Got it in my hands finally. This is my first Hi-Metal VF-1. I'm both impressed and frustrated with it at the same time. Even as an exclusive with fast packs I think it was over priced. The cost of the Mass Production VF-1A seems more reasonable to me. I'm impressed that they can have so much detail and create a transformable VF-1 at this scale. I also like seeing all the option parts. At this scale everything feels extra delicate. During transforming I almost thought I broke something but parts just snap out instead of breaking. I needed to use a paper clip to aide me in transforming it. You can get some good poses but you might knock a part off in your attempt. In an hour after opening I've already spent about 10 minutes on the ground looking for dropped parts. Luckily I found them all.

    Not ordering them again either even if they have the lower price. Only way I'm ordering from them is if it some exclusive and the other stores aren't carrying it. Now I'm waiting 90 minutes to pick up Lil me that the mail man delivered to somewhere else and never bother to tell me where.

    This is bs. I wasn't home. Someone was. Mail man didn't knock on door. Leave note in mail box or on my door. Dropped it off at the office. Would never know it came unless I checked online. Didn't say where they delivered it. Called the office. They got it but they are closed. Last time I had something sent from Japan they wouldn't drop it off with a signature from an actual householders. Lazy postman.

    Sunday 4pm it arrived at a central post office about 5 to 10 miles away. Today at 5:17am it arrived at my local post office. Pretty sure it will miss today's delivery truck. I could make 4 round trips from here to the post office in a single hour. Instead I've got to wait a entire day

    "A girl has no name" And a pretty boring story... She started off promising. The young, strong willed daughter who was more interested in learning how to fight than to be a lady. Escapes villains tracking her with the help of various father figures/mentors. Then settles to learn the way of the boring Ninjas with no face, no name and no emotions. That entire episode went no where.

    Neutral again. I'm glad the girl band were singing to support things from a "safe" position. That's better than having them dart around with no space suit and singing.

    5 days after clearing customs little me is finally in town. With no Sunday delivery I have to hope they deliver before I got to work tomorrow.

    This movie has the same problem that Rogue One will have but only more so. We all know how it is going to end. Han isn't going to die. He's going to make friends with Chewie and win the Falcon from Lando. We know what will happen. We just don't know how it will happen.

    You're right. I read a week ago that Amazon made a deal with USPS. Prime gets first place according to the rumors.

    Mine cleared customs 3 days ago no updates for tracking since. It has to be somewhere? That's enough time for it to arrive today or to sit in a usps warehouse.

    Looks alright but too short.

    2 simple arguments in favor of "boob armor" 1. It lessens the doubt that is just a male stunt man in the costume. 2. Other characters won't mistake them for a man when first meeting them.

    He's named Captain America and we don't get to see him first?

    How come Conan didn't burn his fingers off when holding a light saber?

    Everything Messer says seems to be right. Hayate antics is bound to get someone killed before he learns from Messer. Chances are Messer will be the one that dies.

    Lil me still hasn't flown over from Nippon yet. In the mean time I managed to free up 4 shelves in my detolf cabinets. My single Regult is feeling pretty lonely.

    Should have came back while they were burning him. Then he gets to be in Freddy Kruger makeup for the rest of the series.

    Neutral vote. I think this was the strongest episode so far. It just that a fantasy kingdom seems like it should belong in different anime. Same thing goes for girl band with super powers. Take everything that was popular with anime fans that liked Frontier. Mix it up with some other popular anime genres and you have Delta. I wonder if Mirage's memory mean that Delta exist in the same universe where DYRL was an actual historic events or has her memory has just been tainted by seeing it in movie form?

    I've got 3 IKEA detolf display cases with a total of 12 shelves. I either need to buy another case or free up some shelves.

    I'm looking forward to this.
