  1. There was a rumor that they were going to have PF VF-1S toys with the Arcadia stand, I guess that didn't happen? There are a few Battle7 models on YJA, maybe they sold those at Wonderfest 18?

    Bandai DX VF-31

    So there we go then... no reason to be grossed out by Mikumo. Max may have been banging a 3 year old Miria... Okay okay, we know Miria has been killing people for a while given her reputation so nothing quite so bizarre. The age thing just sounds crazy because it's absent the notion of programmed clones being born as adults.
  3. The Misa looks good (very good) but I think MaxFactory did better with Minmay's face.
  4. Sorry, thread derail in process, but I'm pretty sure it's Keith who confesses his love to Roid. Like I said, it follows the chatter about Keith never having shown interest in women. It's like totally shoe-horned into the end... like the writers suddenly realized that Keith's behavior made no sense as the guy who is supposed to be protecting the king. "Hey, let's just say he's in love with the villain!" "YEAH!" EDIT - sorry, I'll get back to DX toys. Hope we get Pope-head Mirage... and the other folks too...... but doubt it.
  5. Are Zentraedi ever children? Did the Protoculture grow them in test tubes until early adulthood? Basically, are they off fighting in space after only being in existence for a year or two? We know in Delta that Mikumo was basically born an adult, would the same be true of Zentraedi (initially, obviously the Zentraedi start doing things more naturally after the human influence).
  6. The Roid/Keith romance angle is a blink and you miss it sort of thing, there's even room to dismiss it entirely I suppose (but I think it helps make more sense because it always bothered me that Keith rolls with Roid after he killed the king). I've only seen the series once but toward the end, Keith confronts Roid and basically blurts out "you were my inspiration" or something more Windermerean like "You were the wind that lifted me" or maybe even "You are the wind beneath my wings" if Keith is a big Bette Midler fan. It's not long after the twin brothers are in the hangar talking about how Keith has no interest in women.
  7. That might have been too obvious with her grandparents having been there and done that... Besides, Keith liked Roid, but they should have made more use of that because it's so far in the background it's hard to understand why Keith doesn't stop Roid sooner. They could have done a Stockholm syndrome angle with one of the girls easily enough and made one of the Windermere guys more likeable to cause some conflict. The Drakens could have used more color also... Make the White Knight white and the other guys gray with colored trim, something more similar to what we're seeing here with mirage.
  8. I didn't realize the ET red legioss is a limited distribution item. Maybe that explains why NY and CDJapan aren't carrying it.CM's did that with their green and red legioss toys... then when they couldn't get rid of the stock they let every store have them.

    Are the Zentraedi (before Micron tampering) also "born" as adults?
  10. The good news is, she has the pope head instead of the Anubis head so if Bandai is going to milk it for a DX offering, they're going to have to make the Ba after all.
  11. Will the PF version have all the runner parts installed? I hope so.
  12. There were lots of Yamato hard points sheered off too.
  13. Yes, there is a twist trick to the missiles but I don't know that being really good about the twist guarantees you won't break them.
  14. 1/12 hovertank please!
  15. Cool, that does look pretty good. Does Rick come with a sniper rifle?
  16. My 5Pro Studios Votoms review is up on anymoon.com!
  17. Yeah, you're definitely going to be paying for a tiny production run on these figures. SHFiguarts pricing with 10% the articulation and accessories. I wish Rick had a helmet he could hold.

    Cool... and from the looks of the background... that person has been working at it a while.
  19. Looks like a prototype 1/72 as the backdrop. The figure looks great... Curious about pricing.

    Tomahawk has to be the next release right? IT HAS TO BE!
  21. We discussed previously that they also painted the hair wrong, Rick has Roy's hair and vice-versa. The person who posed them was probably just trying to get them to stand and the backward lean is inadvertent. It's like all the times we see mistransformed mecha on display... the booth person is just a booth person.
  22. I think HLJ right now....

    Bandai DX VF-31

    It can't be a vf31f reissue... Special mini drakens as a standalone release?

    The HMR line is between 1/80 and 1/100 scale. The Koenig that currently exists is 1/120 scale. I guess if we see HMR VF25 we can start hoping for a Koenig renewal in scale but I don't think a reissue of the existing you with an HMR label would cut it.
  25. Any thing they spent on the Kickstarter campaign, any shows they attended and related expenses, they could classify marketing in lots of ways. Who thinks Palladium has any value? I don't get the point here. That worthless company with an awful reputation should be punished! Are people hoping to get the value from the molds of those awful miniatures?
