  1. I think I had missed that there are hard points previously... they aren't using the ol' peg method that CMs and Toynami opted for.
  2. I wouldn't be surprised if the Legioss doesn't go PO until Yellow ships but I'd like to see it go up before then :).
  3. Well I needed a breather... so many new toys!
  4. Not too surprising, they often get a fair amount of Toynami exclusives

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Ha, so BiJ really did find a way to get their Mark up... Guess I'll think twice in the future about how badly I need to get an item quick before I pull the trigger there . Too bad CDJ isn't doing exclusives regularly.
  6. Looks like you did a great job.
  7. Just got my shipped notice. Man, KitzConcept Dark VF-1S arrived today, my VF-31 armored parts are already in San Francisco, my KitzConcept Rick figure shipped, Arcadia's SV-51 and Sentinels VR-041 due soon, and then the Max TV DX VF-1A?? CRAZY TIMES AHEAD!

    NY is great for ferry shipping... Otherwise less so.

    It's to the US, I got the same. Paid my ransom.

    https://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/charge/list/ems1_en.html BiJ's pricing for EMS shipping NEVER made sense. They must do actual post + mark-up and I'd guess they're really sticky on that mark-up for TWE items since the mark-up they make on the actual good is very small. They guessed the item would weigh 1.75kg to get to 5,200Â¥ which is kooky dooks. Instead of canceling, did they offer changing the shipping method to SAL?
  11. I never did a review of the version 2 tornado parts... Wasn't really a fan so I always found other things to play with... But I'll do it some day.

    Same boat... It's like Yamato 1/48 shipping prices which seems a bit crazy but what can you do.
  13. I have Spotify premium which includes Hulu so I only want one other streaming service. I have HBO right now but I'll cancel it when I finally slog through Game of Thrones.
  14. Wow Shaun, awesome find! It does look great.

    Yours probably came like mine where they were on the wrong side when the toy was placed in the box. Glad it was helpful!

    My video review of the 31E is currently processing and probably addresses these, should be live in like a half hour. No need to wait though, here's the answers: 1) The radome collapses so there's tons of room between it and the tarmac. I have a scan of the instruction manual up already on my VF-31 review and it shows the configuration the radome should be in to get the most clearance. 2) Yes, when the radome is folded properly it won't extend far enough down to interfere with the adapter.
  17. Star trek, like Star wars, is too long in the tooth, and it's fans too dogmatic. Any new media will trip over itself immediately. Fans want something that is right with the universe but the universe itself was glued together largely of the writing convenience of prior shows. That was the brilliance of the first reboot movie's time shenanigans... It's just too bad the writing around those shenanigans was so weak.
  18. We're in the window where you should be waiting for the toys to hit shelves... This is the most expensive time to buy as people freak out about not having secured a pre-order.
  19. I ordered one but I imagine it won't be here for another week. Looking forward to it!
  20. Got a link to this thing? it looks fun.

    As I recall, Arad has a flashback of having a custom VF-31A before joining Delta. I think that's our best hope for the time being and not unreasonable given that Arad's 31 toy sold like hot cakes after the armored parts were announced... and the armored parts also seem to have sold very well. Other long shots are that the Macross Delta 2: Paint with the Colors of the Wind will have more 31As in it. Alto got a 171 so I wouldn't put a hero 31A out of the realm of possibility.
