  1. nice... but where's the GU-11? the micro-missile pods? head-lasers? can it even do GERWALK? AC:AH just might become slightly tolerable if these VF1-DLCs have those features... no to mention, FAST-packs...
  2. it would be an infinitely hilarious tragi-comedy if all those bastard scalpers that hoarded them 171EX preorders ended up not being able to liquidate any of 'em at any pricing.
  3. hmm. 8820y at HLJ vs 8620y at AmiAmi. i'll most likely still wait for a better pricing. like a spring-sale pricing or something...
  4. it's all about the sucky exchange rate.
  5. from the in-game shot of FoC game http://www.tfw2005.c...ruticus-174392/ tfw-thread
  6. well, ya know, Yamato's also gonna be selling a giant dildo:
  7. well, yet another official Bruticus pic. with updated colors. and still with gorilla-arms. http://www.tfw2005.c...picture-174387/ add: Brutaid! they're having way too much fun over there at TFW-forum.
  8. The 1D should have the accessory part as standard. It should be separate from the non-1D valks.
  9. FoC Shocky is awesome. Will get two upon retail sighting! Bruticus is really disappointing me from the pics, but I will still get the Combaticons since they look kewl individually. Not quite feeling Prime and Jazz, but might still get 'em.
  10. FoC toy-pics at http://www.tfw2005.c...ictures-174364/ Shockwave, Prime, Jazz, and a lanky Bruticus. more pics: http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/toy-fair-38/toy-fair-2012-transformers-generations-images-174372/
  11. blurbed from http://www.tfw2005.c...evealed-174356/ official site at: http://www.happymeal...ndex.html#/Toys
  12. lol! Well, just to be fair, there are people who never outgrew having Luke as their role-model. I mean, you know, Han's always been the better role-model coz Han shot first!
  13. Luke Skywalker ain't an anime character. That said, I think most kids I know grow out of fixating on any anime or cartoon character by the time they're over 8yo or something. Furthermore, I think most of us here in this forum are not kids anymore. We can buy our 1/60 Yammies with our own money!
  14. Not sure if there's really a polarisation or just some vocal minority being rather silly about it. Still, awesome job on that blue VF2SS thingy, mang!
  15. Well, I don't live in Japan and don't quite understand the fans over there, but I don't really think it's quite healthy (mentally and otherwise) to have or to fixate on an anime character to serve as a role-model for anyone. Regardless if it's Basara or Shinji or whoever. However, for entertainment value, I am more entertained with Shinji and Eva anime than I ever have had with Basara and M7 anime. Even more entertained with the current Eva reboot, as a matter of fact.
  16. I would agree. But then we have to consider that both Evangelion and Nadesico followed mere months later after M7. Those two were even more flamboyant and superbly more awesome anime than M7 and didn't grate nor made us groan. I think diverting with "eyes on a giant robot" is more impeding in the discussion than whining about "real" or "super" categories, don't you think?
  17. Does it really matter what the people in Japan use for their "robot"-terminology to us here in the west or how old they were in Japan when 7 and Plus was shown? Seriously. What's the relevance to us that are not there?
  18. I really must ask. Who is talking about "eyes on a giant robot" ? I'm also still unsure about your earlier post regarding: I'm a bit interested about who these "everyone" that you're talking about.
  19. I think Yamato-Toys should make and sell a proper VF2SS in 1/60 scale. They already improved upon the crappy Bandai M7-valks, so it's not much of a stretch that they can vastly improve upon the even-crappier Bandai VF2SS kit.
  20. I think the major charm and appeal of Macross in the mecha-dept was that the mechas were about as completely non-derivative of the old 70's robots, i.e. they don't remind anyone of the Mazinger Z or Getter or Raideen or Balatach or Mekander or etc, etc. The exception to that being the Soundforce valks of M7 having faces, of course. Having a mouth on a mecha in Macross is just stupidly silly and unnecessary, imo.
  21. Keith is trying to make us squint to see that the F91 Gundam he searched hard for has some kind of mouth that is comparable to the M7 Valks like Fire Valk or the Maxl. It's like saying beetles look like bats coz both have wings. Oy vey.
  22. lol! that vf-x3 is optimized for ridiculous fugliness. not sure which is more fuglier, tho. That or the Metal Siren.
