Does anyone know of a website that documents old Votoms releases? I would like to go back and clean-up my scopedog posts and contain some historical information like release dates and prices. Does anyone own this Votoms Toy Collection book https://www.hlj.com/armored-trooper-votoms-real-toy-collection-mdw23728 I'm curious if it has a bunch of the data I would like in one easy spot. If I could confirm that I would be happy to grab a secondhand copy somewhere.

LOL, I wouldn't argue that! I'm standing by my opinion that that scheme is better than the KC. There's also an argument to be made that both Max & Miria should have a white chest (matching the stripe on their VF-1) with white cuffs but make the forearms and shoulder armor bay doors blue or red to match their VF-1. That would essentially be doing what was done for Hikaru with the assumption that the white parts were white because Hikaru's VF-1 was white. If I had time I'd mock that up. It'd probably be easier and cheaper for KC too because only a couple parts would be unique between the two. Heck, if they went that route, it'd be a piece of cake to make a cannon fodder version also!

Well, it's the first WWM release of the regular 31J so I guess it makes sense.
-
I really feel like they missed the mark on the GBPs for Max & Miria... they're just too similar to the paint schemes of the underlying toys without enough contrast. Rick's GBP doesn't look just like his fast packs. I actually prefer Toynami's rather simple effort:
-
But the only M&M toys have super parts...
-
Ya know, while that's true, Bandai has done plenty of bizarre things in the past. So likely they won't touch it but.... if that's your thing, you can hold out hope.
-
A little fun fact, this is the toy that I get the most frequent inquiries about through my website. If Master Made is still around, they really should do another print. -
If we find out it will be sold there, I will definitely hit you up!
-
Well I hope this is as easy as the Tamashii Nation metallic VF-25 Tiny Session to purchase.
-
I don't know the circumstances but there are no pics of the inside because it's listed as 'unopened'. Maybe it was a cheap BIN.
-
Looks like a test shot rather than an actual scheme but I'll try to get one.
-
There has also been at least one VF-1 teased. Hope we see more, this line is adorable.
-
Have they teased those in Tiny Mission? I would love to see them but I don't remember them being teased.
-
Man, these toys are making the Yamato toys feel like real bargains at their original MSRP... Cheaper and twice the size with tons of detail and disassembly ability. I had hoped Arcadia would make a smaller Scopedog like their Garland but Bandai and ThreeZero have scratched that itch.
-
At this point, they should work on an SD 2.0 and address some of the shortcomings then release the gbp. Might as well get is to double dip!
-
I haven't been paying attention on that but I think the WWM logo is on the box no matter where you buy the toy from, Japan or abroad.
-
They're available at lots more stores so less pre-order madness.
-
Honestly, I don't know that it is a huge rip off of the Sentinel. The cockpit is doing something different in soldier mode and there are definitely different interpretations at various points.
-
Oof, I'm going to have to go with a WWM release on this one... I'm sure the Japanese sites will sell out instantly and I'm on the east coast and those hours don't work for me!
-
It's 1/28 scale.
-
Will we get a TWE metallic red and gold release?
-
Looks like the HG model kit expansion 1 effect parts.

It was a two way street, BW would rather eat it's own face than share revenue with HG. I don't know that it ever could have been different because BW never viewed HG as legitimate in any capacity.

It's possible my Alto is not the same level of whiteness as it was when new but my Luca and Maruyama are a similar hue. I think the revival version might be a little more pure white and the matte finish may also catch the light better making it look even brighter when being photographed.
