    I suspect this will be easy to get like the elint.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Still crickets here too but I don't know that other retailers fared much better. Seems like BIJ was the most reliable.

    For like $38 shipped (I chose SAL), I get a battroid for a thunder hammer and a gold canopy I can play with on other valks. Fun times.
  4. It's just a rubber ring popped onto a wheel so yes, all can be removed. Some do pop off a bit easier than others but it shouldn't be an issue.

    Grabbed one for that thunder hammer.

    Let's not confuse the activities of the sponsor with the creative talents that make the show. Hopefully there is some positive impact on both the sponsor and the creatives at seeing the popularity of this toy.

    sold at Mandarake for 35,000... oh God NY, please don't fail me.

    It's been done... Was that an exo release?
  9. It's still April... Which starts in a week. It may be late April, it may not.
  10. If I was them I would just thank you for your interest. The product is about to ship and the question deals with subjective matters.
  11. I think Aramaki worked on Halo...
  12. I added on the fast pack. The delay was not unexpected. I wonder if it will be at Comic Con probably not since they didn't go last year.
  13. If the visor is smooth on the outside, I suspect most people won't have the lighting necessary to be bothered by the internal detail. We will need to wait for in hand pictures.
  14. I know a guy at Sentinel, hoping to see him at Comic Con. I will relay some thoughts.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Another morning... Still no word from NY.
  16. I'm pretty sure the accessories are the gun, some fixed posed hands, and a naked head. No empty helmet or optional helmet...

    Bandai DX VF-31

    I mean, I guess if Bandai just shoves them into normal mail and Bandai started shipping them out the day before people started getting them, that might make sense...
  18. That's because Aramaki himself made the updates (for the art book).

    Bandai DX VF-31

    I haven't received any word from NY. Sigh... Looking forward to this bird.
  20. I don't think I ever realized how busy the new visor is. There are lots of pics of the rider here: https://ameblo.jp/sen-ti-nel-info/entry-12362327147.html?frm_src=thumb_module

    The Hikaru 1J would be much easier to mod. From what I understand the paint removal process isn't fun.
  22. Hey all, if you're curious about any of the Yamato releases, I have a full review up now on anymoon.com. 10 to 12 years late? Yeah, maybe I'll be doing the Proto Garland some day also but it's different enough that I'll give it a dedicated post.
  23. I still watch 80s anime all the time so I'm not a stickler for visuals

    Regular HMR = available at every store, usually marked down below MSRP. The benefit is that you can get the toy for below MSRP right away. The downside is that they sell out very quickly and most stores limit you to one (for people who want multiples) P Bandai, AKA Premium Bandai, AKA Tamashii Web Exclusive (TWE) is only available through the Tamashii website to Japanese residents. If you want one outside of Japan, you have to go to a middle man. There are a number of stores that act as a middle man but you have to pay full MSRP + Japan Tax + a middle man surcharge. The benefit of TWE releases is that a preorder window stays open for a set amount of time (like a month) and you can order as many as you want.
  25. Looks fun, does it say it's going to be on Netflix at the end there??
