Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
jenius replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Man... looking at that thing sure does take me back in time to my childhood. -
There's not much in ThreeZero's history that suggests they would try to venture into less popular (or enemy) mecha. I think Hi-Metal R is just about our only hope there. It looks a safe bet that both GBP and Super Parts are possible if the sales are good. There is some precedent that these could be sold as add-ons instead of second release bundles. Here's an Eva add-on kit: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/170715?o=4

It will all depend on the conversion rate

This image shows the clearance. Not a ton but better than KC:

Does the airbrake look functional also?

If I were a betting man, I would think ThreeZero would be much more metered in their approach. The most aggressive I would imagine them being is one per quarter but I suspect it will be one every six months to nine months. I wonder if they'll hold out on the 1S and wait to get through the 1J repaints first.

The more parts, the longer it takes me to review... And they have so many parts!

I was working on my B2Five review and it was going to end "C'mon B2Five, give us a matching Alpha!" Then I went to comic con and saw this. You can tell the pilot is a B2Five by the pegs on the wrist

Not "TV" version, just not the "movie color" version. Man I haven't handled mine in ages. -
There's something very curious happening with the lower leg. I wonder if it pivots instead of sliding out to extend.

Insert "I got a bad feeling about this" images here.

I don't agree with that take at all. These firms hire designers that work with multiple companies. I remember hearing during the VF-17 and VF-171 days how the same team was working on both and trying to determine ways to differentiate them. During the V1 vf-25 days, Bandai tried to do things in house... It was not so good. Also, the toys you site have significant differences from their predecessors. The DX VF-1 is VERY different from a V2 while being the same vehicle, the 19 also has pretty dramatic changes. Let's not forget Bandai made an amazing VF-31 toy with no toy to take inspiration from. The 21 might turn out to be a clunker... But it's not because the only way Bandai can make a good toy is if they have a good toy to work from.

No trade at wonder fest? I need pics!

It appears my Switch controller was made by a company that doesn't sell switch controllers anymore, Ralthy? Probably just a cheap 'prop' controller but I still love it.

They forgot the heads on the Angelbirds... so ... maybe?
-
I look forward to doing the line art comparison
-
I haven't played the first remake because of TOTK. Looking forward to it though.

This is not the streaming news I've been waiting for.
-
Not a color difference, a lighting difference.
-
Bandai did it first!

There are a bunch, but mostly color related and the head is a ball joint. -
I find it very unlikely it will have changed since it's debut. Other than very minor tweaks, Bandai usually stays the course.
-
Jotun is different... I wonder if we'll see some HMR conversations of the Orguss that would be closer to what we see in the show.
-
It's the other modes with the super far out intakes that turn me off... A little overly ambitious here.
-
Gotta catch em all!
