  1. I can check my old emails but I'm pretty sure it was the same guy. I remember there were specific requests to differentiate it from the Yammy VF17 he had done as much as possible. I'd guess the stupid wings are directly from a Bandai request as a money making scheme.
  2. I was told the 171 was designed by TRex but can't swear to it... If so, it's the guy that does Arcadia's stuff.
  3. Well ya gotta figure people who couldn't afford the Arcadia bought the Bandai but wouldn't feel right voting since they don't own both.
  4. I'm surprised the voting is so close.
  5. Wow, I'd forgotten just how bad the durability of those toys was... this thread definitely brings back memories. I'm glad Arcadia chose to revisit the series. While the toys are astronomically priced now there's no question they're better than the first go around, strange color choices and all. Unfortunately given the prices... I find myself gravitating back to more recent Bandai releases much more often... maybe because the sky high price has me afraid to touch my Arcadia stuff.
  6. Hmm, it might not be an industry-wide change. I can only surmise the same as you but it might be specific to NY. Like if NY used to be allowed payment on delivery but now NY is ordering a lot more stuff from Bandai (or perhaps a lot less) so that arrangement is no longer beneficial to Bandai. It might be a lot more stuff and NY took a ton of orders on items for delivery in those two months.
  7. Yeah, it looks like HIkaru's 1J but with blue piping instead of red.
  8. If you like the YF-19 you need a VF-19Advance. That's my story and I'm sticking to it (even though I've had limited time to handle mine).
  9. Gakken 1/35 is the best Legioss toy. The second best would by Toynami's MPC Alpha which does a really good job looking the part but the build quality is crap, the fists are made of recycled eraser dust, and frustration should be the expectation.
  10. Is this Mei Leelong's scheme? I'd be in for one.
  11. Paid... at the rate my Percival is traveling I have to wonder which will reach me first...
  12. So these were the models Toynami used as the basis for their "super poseable" toys?
  13. Wow, all those times the only thing I ever looked at in that pic were the blue destroids. Cool... now we need a green GBP to go on a Brown and Red VF-1A...
  14. I think the grasp on that Zero license is pretty solid... mostly because Bandai has never seemed to have interest in it.
  15. I think the odds are decent but not until 2017
  16. Yeah, Galaxy was like the worst possible executed bad guy.
  17. I don't think a GBP 1J CF happened. Might be thinking of a model kit or something.
  18. No problem. I'll make a note of it for the next update. Thanks for the heads up.
  19. Yeah... I'm no fan of Brera. Cyborg killing machine in the movies was a little more compelling than series version but still meh.
  20. LOL, V3 VF-25. I suspect that's the kind of thing to expect on Frontier's 25th anniversary.
