might as well use the Grimlock apron and tie with it and take pix!

No way. SDF1 should be mated with the Yamato and Arcadia.
you guys are LOL-awesome!
WANT MOAR SDF-1 ARM-FUNNEH PLS!
-
well, heads up, guys.
Just got back from the local wally's and the deluxe-TF pricing (ROTF, WFC/Generations) are back up at $11.88 again over there. There were one of each of these: Megs, Dirge, and Soundwave, while bunches of Skullgrin and Thunderwing are shelfwarming with the usual ROTF-crap.
The local Target has Cliffy (wfc) for $9.99 and Skullgrin still shelfwarming at $9.04 alongside ROTF-crap at $9. I also have not seen any of the RTS line at the local Target since getting Jazz a few weeks ago.
fwiw, i just saw a new walgreens down here, but am too tired to visit to check on inventory and pricing there. maybe tomorrow.
-
got lucky at wally's today with these guys...
Cliffy's not even showing up on their inventory, yet, but the sales-clerk just double-swiped Soundwave for it.
-
I really liked playing the demo when it first came out.
I'm still just waiting for a disc-version since I just don't like downloading the full-version.
I just don't like downloading any non-free full-version games at all.

I'm gonna try to find Tracks tonite since I'm hitting Wally's for the A-Team BD/DVD combo (if it exists there).
I might just buy another Jazz if I find him again tonite.
edit:
well, that Wally's indeed did a huge restock tonite and the TF-aisle was since overflowing.
overflowing with crap rotf-shelfwarmers, that is. all the pegs have are Ravage, Skids, Sideswipe, Arcee, Hailstorm... WTF!!!????!!!!
what a *@#$()%*# wasted trip.
even the A-Team bd/dvd combo didn't exist, so i had to settle with the bd-only version.
dammit!

welp!
finally visited the local Target today and they got some interesting stuff there like:
SkullGrin (a non-blue recolor of Darkmount) and Mindset (a blue-repaint of Hailstorm). They got the usual rotf shelfwarmers clogging the pegs, but they also have...
Special Ops Jazz ($9) and Dirge ($9.04)!!!
Bought them two right away.
They also got those little ones (legends?-class) like Tracker Hound and Duststorm which is a mocha-repaint of Beachcomber.
Maybe the other Target have Blurr and the others. Wally's didn't have jack other than the usual rotf crap.
edit:
Jazz is so frickin' kewl!!!
-
was at wally's last nite and their TF-aisle is now stacked full again.
...with a bunch of those ROTF shelfwarmers yet again. Augh!
well, I reckon it's not quite as bad since a couple of WFC-Megs finally appeared there and there were a couple more Darkmounts.
WFC-Prime was there, too, so I finally snagged him. He's not a $13-kewl figure, but he's $9-kewl.
-
Well, I saw and bought Megs (wfc) at Wally's today. $9!
That Wally's also (surprisingly) got a couple of Darkmounts and both Terradive and Tomahawk. All of which I passed on.
As such, Blurr, Megs(wfc), Dirge, Soundwave(wfc), and Red Alert are all available in Fry's retail for $12.99 each. I'm gun-shy with the pricing, so I'm gonna check the other Wally's here for them instead.
-
fyi, guys.
The local wally's here price-dropped the deluxe-class TFs to $9. I just went to their online-site and it's also $9 there.
dunno if it's gonna permanent, tho.
-
just saw this...
geeky, but i (and many other fellow macross-fans here) still salute and congratulate you on your wedding, Jerry Chu!
-
meh.
they're not gonna ever top the awesome remake and the even more awesome sequel to the awesome remake...
-
fwiw, I saw both Darkmount and Hailstorm at the local Wally's here.
I couldn't pull the purchasing-trigger on either.
Darkmount's just too small. I prolly would've gotten him if he was in Voyager-class.
Hailstorm's just way too meh.
that said, I must await Classics Grapple.

Turbo Tracks Reviewed - A definite keeper.
nice.
tho gotta wonder why they changed his Flaming Chicken into something else...
-
Trivia time: Emma Stone is actually blonde. She dyed her hair for Superbad, and has been running with it ever since. And she can play the modest part good enough, she did it in The House Bunny.
Which leads us to the interesting situation of having an actress that could do both MJ and Gwen at the same time.
... damn, I wish they could cast her for both parts.
One can only hope that they indeed do that.
It would be such a surreal Peter Parker story dilemma that he really wanted a redheaded Gwen all this time...
never gonna happen, tho.

spotted a lone Red Alert today at wally's and here he is alongside his buddies:.

This post was updated with Bandai v.s. Yamato pics
whoa!
from the pics, the old Yammie's bigger than the DX.
shuttle-mode: tie.
gerwalk-mode: i give the edge to the old Yammie, as it looks more menacingly Monster than the DX.
destroid-mode: DX definitely looks prettier with the stickers, but the DX cannons look weak by proportions.
what is the scale of the DX again?
-
Well, a detailed 1/60 version does seem completely out of reach for a lot of us, but if there is a demand by the masses, Yamato would be negligent in not filling the supply. If they don't someone eventually will. It may not happen in the near future, but someone will do it eventually. 10 years ago, did we ever thing we'd see a Valk in 1/48 that perfectly transforms? I think the closest thing we had to something that big was the 1/48 resin kit (locked in fighter mode) that ran oh, about $400 USD or more....back then. Yamato came and filled that demand. Same thing will happen here......I hope.
I reckon that's the whole point about it being expensive and sh*t. Yamato prolly did some research and came up with the conclusion that there just really ain't much mass demand over there in Japan for this stuff. They're prolly got gunshy with the sales-results of the destroids and the q-raus, and most especially the results of their Konig, too.
*shrugs*
I can wait for an affordable Yammie Regult. I'm not in a hurry for it, tho. If it doesn't happen, then it doesn't happen.
-
fwiw, I think only anime52k8 was the one who makes the all-you-can-hate post and I rather think he's just being sarcastically funny.
I dunno about the other posters, but I don't *hate* the stuff I listed. I just really didn't care for them. They're all meh to me.
It's really tough for me to hate anything, toy or otherwise.
-
For me is the MPC's. But the time it was the only Valks that I knew off. And the other is the Revy Transformable valks I just can't get into them.
And for those guy's who hate everything, "treatment" & "anime52kb". Why are you posting on this thread?
It sounds like you guy's just want to stir the pot. And if you hate all the Macross toys in existance, Maybe, just maybe you should get another hobby, or interest.
Huh?
Maybe you need some reading-comprehension lessons since what *I* listed from my post ain't everything. It ain't even half of what's in existence.
-
my all-time favorite will always be the badass 1/60 Hikaru Strike VF-1S.
altho the 1/48 Hikky-1J still is very awesome to me, too.
-
all of the MPCs.
all variants/scales of the Bandai VF-25.
all of the Revy VF-1.
the VF-19 Kai, regardless if it's by Bandai or the upcoming Yammie.
the VB-6 Konig Monster from both Bandai and Yamato.
the Toynami Regult or anything else from Toynami.
all variants of the SDF-1 from every one that ever made it.
those are prolly it for now.
I prolly would not care for the Phalanx if Yamato ever offers it, either.

The Nerf N-Strike Arsenal Thread
in Anime or Science Fiction
Posted
I gifted my youngest nephews with the Recon cs-6, the Longstrike, and the Stampede ecs last x'mas. They already had my old Vulcan-25 from a few years ago.
The Recon was nice. I like the Longstrike better, but I wished it came with a bipod like the older Longshot. We just used the Stampede's bipod for it.
The Stampede has nice extras and stuff, but quite a letdown coz there's no manual-mode at all. Prepare to stock up on six-D batts to use it.
