    Ah, I see. Wow, that's... way lower.

    What's the price of PSN/Live? Isn't it about the same? (Haven't been online with a console since... ever, now I think about it. Wow.) EDIT: I'm most interested in their class games offerings. If it's just cherry-picked games from the NES/SNES era, then bleh. If it's an entire console library and/or runs up through at least the N64 (preferably Gamecube/Wii), though...

    They might release the TFA as a P-Bandai exclusive. That said, what's this about the landing pads, and is that (and the antenna) the only difference between OG Falcon and New Hotness Falcon?

    Is the Monster not worth $200-250? As in its build quality, size, etc. doesn't justify its price? From what I read before its release people were super impressed by its size...
  5. kajnrig
    Isn't a 1/144 Falcon just around the same size as a 1/72 X-Wing? I suppose 1/48 WOULD be overkill at that point. Still, though...
  6. kajnrig
    Too right. They're going for $100+ on YJA, and don't even exist anymore on Ebay.
  7. kajnrig
    Oh wow. This is Bandai, right? (Nvm, clicked the video.) That's super sick, seeing the next Perfect Grade NOT being Gundam. The first Perfect Grade was Eva 01, and now the Millennium Falcon... Shame about the scale, though. I mean, I know the Falcon is a beast even at this scale, but a 1/48 would truly have been Perfect Grade.

    So I dunno when they restocked them, but HLJ has a bunch either back in stock or backordered. A search for "tomy macross": http://hlj.com/search/go?w=tomy macross No VF-31A, though, but that's unsurprising.

    Second this. I just bought two items that had been in my HLJ backorder for a while - a 1/100 HG Gundam X kit, and a 1/72 Tornado Messiah - and it's been as good an experience buying now as it was when I first used it. What advantages does Buyee have over FJ? I read earlier that Buyee is the official YJA proxy company, but using FJ has been pretty painless, all things considered.

    Blu-ray release on 7/25. Available in BD, 3D BD, DVD, 4K http://thedigitalbits.com/columns/my-two-cents/053017-1400 I can't wait to see how cringey those featurettes are. "Your body, your ***SHELL***, is synthetic. But your brain, your soul, your ***GHOST***, is human."
  15. kajnrig
    Well frakk me. Still won't bother seeing it, but I'm glad they finally seem to be getting their crap together... enough for a one-time success, anyway.

    Are these knock-off companies just straight-up copying Bandai/Arcadia items, or are they doing something that separates them from the pack? I don't know of any "third-party" Macross kit makers, but some of the Gundam ones have gotten pretty creative in order to blur the lines between their products and official ones. Some do a fairly simple job scribing and/or scratchbuilding new details onto existing Bandai molds, while others convert resin/non-articulated kits to injection plastic/articulated ones. Others do original work altogether, and simply lack the IP; they're relegated to not labeling their kits "Gundam." I haven't seen anything interesting enough to jump on it - the lack of quality control also plays a role. I'm still more interested in the (itself of dubious legality) resin kit/conversion market, but third-party IP kits are definitely stepping up their game. But as far as Macross goes, I'd be interested if KOs go beyond just plain ol' copying Bandai/Yamcadia and introduce some creativity. A Cheyenne II kit/toy, anyone? VF-171? Eh? Even just a new Super/Strike Pack with different details, or a new add-on pack altogether.

    Bah humbug. We all spend too much money on this franchise anyway, what's another 1-6 months' worth of earnings?
  18. kajnrig
    ^ Ah, thanks.

    TWE = ???

    That Guardian review seems to be the only wholly negative review so far (at least based on just the headline; I'm not gonna bother with reviews or indeed the movie). Hope all of you enjoy it, though, and get to wash out the sour taste of the last few DCEU films.
  21. kajnrig
    Although actually, it would be pretty neat to have a singular collection of the entire Macross franchise remastered for Bluray (or if I'm really optimistic, 4K HDR). Or at least, say, up through Macross Zero. The Frontier and Delta tv+movie sets aren't too hard to find, I'd imagine.
  22. kajnrig
    Wing Zero is popular (EDIT: in Japan), just not the rest of the Boy Band.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    kajnrig replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    Hi all, just popping in to ask if a -31A has been teased at all? Thanks.
  24. kajnrig
    I don't. Well, I don't think it will do better critically, anyway, at least not significantly. Sales-wise, all of DCEU have made money, so that's kind of a given.
