  1. TZ I believe are "non scale" and KC are advertised as 1/72 but are technically too big for that. Scale only matters when exclusive licenses are purchased. Usually it's the toy company that would want the license to be exclusive to limit competition. They could limit it by lots of ways: region, MSRP, scale, or even be the exclusive provider of toys altogether. The license holder charges more depending on how tight a hold the licensee wants on the property.
  2. Looks like there has to be overlap. The TZ is now shipping in May but KC has the GBP and metallic VF-1 scheduled for after that.
  3. Tekering, are you saying you want separate battroid and tank kits? You acknowledge that compromises are needed if the same parts will be used for all modes which is what I thought the goal was.
  4. Fantastic!
  5. They could have easily done more with the head.
  6. Vinyl collectors get fleeced... I'll never understand it. It's like the hardest core niche of the fandom.
  7. Did Mospeada ever get an HD or better remaster?
  8. This release isn't for us. It's Bandai's way of seeing if there's a big international market that was shut out before WWM. They're using their most popular toys to do that, not their most obscure ones.
  9. It's such a smart move though because they will pair perfectly with the Sentinel toys. They should include a 1/48 version with each to go along with the Legioss toys. A 1/48 Jeep as a PO bonus for one of the figures would get my money.
  10. The fists and the wheels are homages to old school toys.
  11. There are some big shadows in that shot, hard to say what the colors are supposed to be.
  12. When they sell out, here's another option: https://www.anime-export.com/index.php?product=79875 and this is now live, same price as anime-export, 3000yen more expensive than HLJ https://hobby-genki.com/en/dx-chogokin/33076-dx-chogokin-vf-31j-supersiegfried-hayate-immelmann-use-revival-ver-4573102664181.html
  13. Well I got one from HLJ so, someday, I'll review it and look hard for differences.
  14. Are they legit though?
  15. That chest is deep looking. This is a big improvement from the first attempt while simultaneously bringing something new in the two tone approach.
  16. I think it's a factor of WWM and an attempt to test the waters with some known winners... Why WWM started with a new non canon VF-25, I understand less.
  17. Every Macross fan needs at least one Yamato or Arcadia 1/60 v2. It is still great, no doubt.
  18. Maybe this is just the first of the whole Delta gang getting reissues....
  19. Gauntlet thrown down... we have to figure out a transformation for Kaneda's bike!
  20. Is it too much to hope they'll add a joint to the articulated hands so they're not always pointing at something?
  21. Darn, msised it!
  22. I watched transformers when I was six so it feels about right to me. I'd watch it with my kids... Probably better than most the YouTube stuff they're into.
  23. Anyone in Tokyo or Osaka willing to help a fellow out?
