  1. All I can add is that all Bandai decals are terrible and mightily sucks.
  2. Meh. You guys are talking nonsense. MP-22 is very accurate to the cartoon and the movie. In both truck-mode and bot-mode. If anything, he's maybe even too accurate. The only issue I really had with him was the buttflap, which turned out to be quite minor as it can be flipped up.
  3. Kanna Tanigawa with her nekomimi...
  4. moar Yuki Mori v2 :wub: (flowy-hair): non-flowy-hair with Woody:
  5. uh-oh! http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-010453
  6. fwiw, there were alot of business reasons why and how Yamato-Toys failed. Chief among them is the global recession of 2008. I really highly doubt that all the love and improvements of the V2 even played a part in their demise. It's quite irrelevant and a non-factor. Yamato-Toys had other toy-lines that weren't bringing in the money and were just downright failures. Like that failed Garland and bishoujo lines, etc, etc. Their Macross-line was the probably the only profitable unit among all it's lines. Therefore, the most sought-after assets after their bankruptcy. And from that, we now have Arcadia. Who charges way too much and colors the 0D very wrongly...
  7. It's gotta be some age-old/traditional japanese business culture. Most of the japanese companies will never admit they made a mistake with their decisions, despite mountains of evidence and stuff. It is (still) very rare for it to happen. It is what it is. As such, some of them do address/resolve (or try to) the mistake(s) without explicit admittance.
  8. Yeah, but they make it up by charging more for the valk. This valk still seem to cost between US$300-US$310 (including shipping) between Ami and HLJ to us non-japan folks. Also, remember that paypal's always 2.5% off the daily exchange-rate. Not sure about the fees from your regular CC's, tho.
  9. Someone's bound to do the Titanic pose with this mode...
  10. lol! anyway, here's the recent Bulma...
  11. 1/7 (22cm) and looks quite nice. castoff-enabled, I reckon. http://hobbyjapan.co.jp/ltd_items/hj20150402/ hobbyjapan exclusive, tho...
  12. them just chillin' on the shelf...
  13. My current AC Wingers... Just waiting for the re-release of the missing ones. I have the Geminass, but I somehow cannot bring myself to include it in this lineup. Oh, well...
  14. That'll be a hoot. Some people just might believe that and search for one. Sorry, folks. Kokubougar's an SRC. I just photographed them together since they have good color-contrast against each other and they're both old TWEs. Also, I was just being lazy...
  15. Alrighty then. Always check Ami, HLJ or HobbySearch first , instead. Just so you know, many of us consider N-Y as the shop for the very last desperate resort.
  16. You're joking, right? http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-008624 http://www.hlj.com/product/ACA82075/Sci
  17. Ya know? The upcoming YF-29b's grey/blue scheme color is actually much much closer to that than Arcadia's own 0D: vs hmm...
  18. Yeah. Looks like just some shadowing that makes it seem grey-ish, but it's really just regular white plastic. Is it really that difficult for Arcadia to use jet-black backgrounds for more proper contrast when photographing the valk?
  19. Wow! Really dark blue. Nice, but really just wrong for Shin's 0D blue. Maybe Arcadia will officially name it as the "1/60 VF-0D Not-Really-Shin-Kudo-but-some-other-unknonw-cannon-fodder". Also, that Roy VF-1 looks pinkish. Especially at the nosecone and wings.
  20. Here we go. A couple of very nicely-sculpted and castoff-enabled 1/6 bishoujos... Ai (11,720y pre-order pricing) http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-010191 Sakura(10,650y pre-order pricing) http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-010278
  21. Woody's enthralled...
  22. I have no idea about Combiner Wars and the shenanigans involved in it, but the minibot apparently goes inside UM's chest per pics on Seibertron...
