  1. Could be Sentinel is doing a re-issue? however there's no indication from the Japanese shops which is baffling.
  2. The legs definitely look different. Feet are thinner and the tows went from fat trapezoids to thinner ones. Calfs also are no longer fat blobs and are now more defined with sharper edges and also got a taper.
  3. It would appear that way, and for reasons not really known to us. However, can just nab the book at HLJ so *shrug*
  4. You'd assume it's like Amazon US and Ebay. Most small sellers that use selling platforms just don't wanna deal with the hassle of international sales. Also, Amazon itself is a reseller (buy from sentinel and sell from amazon webstore) and is no different from HLJ / HS/ Etc so there should be no issue buying from them.
  5. After having gotten the first three ride armors I wouldn't dare skip Houquet, pink or not. Once Fuke is out I hope one day they think about making some moon-base Mospeadas so we can get some black VR-52 F/T's and a Shinobu
  6. If the Mosepada breakers tease was any indication I don't think they'll drop the 1/12 mospeada line anytime soon, though Yellow has been floating around for a while and is still very easy to get ($199 at BBTS or 18k yen on Manda) so I wonder if Hoquet will end up being a shelf-warmer (in comparison to stick/ray who were released twice and found nowhere for retail prices)
  7. It's mainly Tamiya XF-72-JGSDF Brown mixed in with a little bit of XF-74-JGSDF Olive Drab and XF-66-Light Grey, but don't remember the exact ratios. I was eye-balling it and have a whole bottle of it now after mixing lol Thanks! Yeah, I love brown guys because it allows a lot more freedom than Hero Valks. When I make RL craft I also always do fictional aircraft so that I can be free to do whatever I want as oppossed to feeling the need to duplicate all the RL details (*mumbles something about naggy people in modelling groups pointing out "actually this in not accurate the real aircraft with serial xxxxx had a paint line more like this / that / *groan*)
  8. I bet it's a case of "looks more obvious in photos" type of thing. I don't even notice the color differences IRL for the ETA but they do seem noticeable if I photograph it.
  9. NY is open too for 23,100 https://www.nippon-yasan.com/figures/31887-riobot-afc-01z-legioss-zeta.html
  10. I think he meant this Link hehe https://1999.co.jp/eng/10713307 Still though Amazon JP is the best price as after discounts you basically get free shipping compared to the other vendors
  11. Amazon Japan was ï¿¥48513 for 2 after shipping, which is basically what Amiami is charging before shipping lul
  12. 0 down, pay on release
  13. noice. Casually got an order in without any beads of sweat or Bandai Shenanigans.
  14. what's really cool is since the inbit were always experimenting and evolving new poke -inbit they can throw whatever they want into this side story for bad guys
  15. Wow forgot about that. The 2083 fits in with what I translated off the website, since the 2nd reclaimation force attacks at the same time and this side story takes place during stick's trip to reflex point. I guess that design in that older promo placard could for one of the other Breaker-team members.
  16. Looking pretty cool. From what I can understand this is a side-story of a secret recon / intelligence unit named the Breakers that was created to scout / research the Inbit. The side story takes place at the same time Stick and co are making their way to Reflex Point so basically takes place same time as Mospeada main story. The armor shown is a female armor and the boob sensors are thought to be some special sensors for finding inbit :p Seems Breaker-1 is some chick named Gate, but other members are TBA (Breaker-2/3/etc) Looks like it'll be a 1/12 ride armor toy. I guess the nice thing is the toys won't look totally out of place next to the re-imagined Riobot Mospeada Stuff we've been getting
  17. Making some progress on the 1/48 VF-1. Went for more of a black aces style black paint around the canopy.
  18. Just pay somebody to paint it for ya. The Pilot figs have a nice rough texture so you don't really even need a primer to paint em up.
  19. but..but..the yf-19 / yf-29 / vf-31 all have forward pointing wings so my concern isn't the aerodynamics. However, worried about getting stress marks / breaks on that fin jutting out O_O
  20. Luckily we don't have to deal with Bandai-levels of insane preorder madness on these suckers.
  21. Just casually masking my canopy this afternoon
  22. The Thirst for valks on this board is real
  23. I actually glued my wing flaps in place with superglue because I was so sick of them moving :0
  24. I do agree on the comment about panel lines looking pretty deep, but would have to see one in person before I made any final judgement. One big plus for the Plamax is if it has closed landing gear bay doors included as well
  25. I bet that's prolly how it would end up :/ on a side note... my DYRL SSP order was created 13 months ago at NY..... wonder what would happen if I asked them for store credit and then applied it to a TV SP order LUL
