  1. I'll get it... Might be my first transformers review in a very long time.

    HMR isn't really 1/100 so that's the likely culprit.
  3. Shouldn't there be a show in a week or two? I thought there was a Tamashii event at the end of October... after all, that's when they first showed off the YF-21 prototype. I'm sure this year's 'show' would be virtual like the last show was.
  4. Maybe all the people who love this Sentinel product are tainted by the experience of just about every other Legioss toy and Kuma hasn't been subjected to that so he's able to give a more unbiased opinion based on his experiences with other $250 toys. If you've handled the Evolution Toy, CM's, or Toynami lately, then you have a different definition of "trash quality" than he does. It says a lot when a toy has shoulders that are frozen in place and a pilot that falls apart easily is the BEST Legioss toy you can get. The bar wasn't very high. For my part, I have really high hopes. Almost all my issues with this toy are fit/finish related and could easily be rectified in a reissue to make it an amazing toy. No reissue was ever going to make the CM's or ET toys better than bad.
  5. More business for that joint tightener company.
  6. Mellowlink was only 12 episodes? Huh... felt like more. I also didn't know there was a movie version of Palesan Files...
  7. Rumor is that EMS is coming back for the holidays... But will be significantly more expensive like DHL
  8. That part pops out for the stand so easy fix.
  9. I find it hard to believe this would apply to any Japanese domestic corps... Amazon is so huge and capable, they're easy to scrutinize.
  10. No, 1/24 is B25's normal scale.

    Macross figures

    Yeah, I got a notification a long while ago but last I checked it was still in HK.
  12. they changed the URL https://www.kitzconcept.com/ Edit - I'm working on a review right now. Since like 50% of the toy is new, the review is going to take a lot longer than I would like so I can try to document all the changes. JVMacross gave his impressions of each mode on the previous page also.
  13. They're pretty bad... The Evoulution Toy Legioss isn't good but it's much better than the CMs.
  14. Stick to the thread topic... See what I did there... Stick. That's word games.
  15. Still looks awkward to me...
  16. Not very naturally

    You should include a link to the sale thread.
  18. Well... Maybe in 5 years we'll be able to get a cheap international release.
  19. For Arcadia, I think shows are cancelled until Spring so we'll probably need tweets from Mr.K to stay updated.

    1/55's revisited

    I think the sale idea warranted it's own thread with a plug here, could have garnered more attention that way also... There was no offense in the suggestion.
  21. I think that was the instance that ensured it would never happen again. BW probably had two unhappy licensees after that... And one basically keeps the lights on at BW.
  22. The detail under the cover is pretty weak... A half hearted effort at best. It probably has to be separate parts anyway and that level of unpainted detail probably didn't impact cost so maybe it's more of a "why not?" Than anything else.
  23. Is DX the same as Soul of Chogokin?
  24. This is kind of backward, the argument is generally that studios invest so heavily in tent poles now (before COVID) that it has slaughtered creativity. Given the backlog though, seems that there should be plenty of good movies in the queue.
  25. My God, what did you do??? That looks like the kind of shattering you see when the factory forces the peg in rather than building the assembly around the peg... Hope we're not all doomed.
