I felt that way about the tv version, but the movie ones look shiny and clean. Even the meltrandi ships have a newer look. Maybe it’s playing off to to old tropes about women keeping things neat and clean versus men just leaving debris on the floor like the bridge that still had broken glass.

A vf-1 would be great if they leave out the compromises. But I’m pretty sure those would be further down the line despite their popularity. Unless they work out something with harmony gold then they’d only be available in Japan. The problems would also be for the buyer since Hlj would be the only place to buy them. Having a local option for these kits are great, but without that hlj will be backlogged for years to come. That being said, it probably would have an amazing battroid mode. I’m pretty sure they’ll do a vf-25, VF-0, or VF-11 if not just a few variations of the existing ones soon. Maybe even some Macross 2 or 7 stuff, but I wouldn’t doubt a lot of delta stuff as well All that being said, I wouldn’t mind being wrong and seeing a readily available VF-1

This one is a real classic
-
I really don’t remember the later episodes much at all. I remember the classics from the early 80’s, but I hardly remember the dic ones

I watched the first few seconds of the actual song and then looked up the actual Ramones video for I Wanna be sedated on YouTube

Was there a time when Cobra shopped at the Halloween store for all their troops?

You can’t leave the girl out of this. She comes ready to help you trim out the parts and even has an airbrush to help you paint it
-
it’s definitely an overdone look. It ends up kinda junky. The basic model doesn’t look bad though, but I’m still not a big enough fan, although the Max colors definitely look better than the red

There’s a couple copies of the link at the top of the page

Gundaloreans……

Was just on the p Bandai U.S. site and they still have stock for preorder. I guess that price tag is a real turn off for people. Personally I’m not a fan of the panels on these, the overall proportions look alright though, just kinda junky looking with the weird panels
-
This one was up for preorder a couple weeks ago and I believe is still available at the p Bandai U.S. store. I’m hoping they get around to the custom version with the sniper rifle. I personally ordered two since I like the Aoz reboot version better than the original, but I kinda want to do a different color with it and see if on the second one if I can fit a normal hg hi zack head to give it the more derpy look from the movie rather than the mean look that this one has
-
I like the little dudes he comes with
-
I’d probably be excited, but there have been so many really good looking models lately that look better and are way less expensive. I think if Votoms had disappeared for a while, I’d probably be interested, but even the bare bones hg looks like as good and has more articulation for a fraction of the cost.

Is Crystal popular again? I remember the toys and tie in comic from back when I was little and every other skater wearing a Danzig or Samhain T shirt with that skull from the cover, but I haven’t really been into comics in a while and hadn’t realized he made a comeback or something

I don’t think it was necessarily bad, it’s just that I don’t like that kind of storyline, it really bums me out after seeing the way things ended from the previous parts.
-
I think part 3 has amazing animation and cool designs, story wise I sorta feel like I’d have been happier not seeing it. It really brings me down. And without giving too much away, there is another major character that ties things together, but that’s part of why I didn’t like the story
-
Maybe the squadron thing was more of a Robotech thing. Most of the translations available in the U.S. had harmony gold influences and maybe that’s why it stuck. Just odd that even Japanese products sometimes have squadron instead of platoon
-
It probably went that way around to say that this was the fighter mode. Like Battroid Valkyrie or Gerwalk Valkyrie sound a bit better than Valkyrie Battroid or Valkyrie Gerwalk
-
Yeah, but I get the feeling that they’re trying to compete with hasegawa.
-
Either that or he’s thinking that he’ll just do the tv version in 1/72 since they seem to have creeped in on that scale as well
-
I’m pretty sure it is. His scaling usually ends up a bit bigger for the zentraedi while Hasegawa and others seem a bit too short to be realistic. Millia in the movie appears gigantic next to Max, while the millia in this kit will maybe be only three to four times his height. The mechanical illustrations have the zentraedi somewhere between those heights and the mecha itself looks a bit larger in those pictures than they do on screen. Zentraedi size is one of those things that are super hard to really figure out since on screen the mecha almost look the same height as a VF-1 battroid while the pilot on screen is exactly the same height as a VF-1 battroid making no logical sense. I’m personally just happy to see the Zentraedi mecha even a little taller than the battroid and I can at least try to believe in anime magic and super cramped pilots barely squeezing in

You’ll be given the option to ship either if you don’t choose private warehouse or if you did choose private warehouse, it usually comes up when you decide to ship, since there may or may not be multiple items by that time.
-
I’ve seen it as squadron for a long time, I’m not sure if they didn’t understand that or that many of those cannon fodder guys were attached as well, but Max and Kakizaki were like stand outs in the squadron.
-
Pretty much. The real difference is just that in the movie they were all skull squadron members and in the show they mostly were Vermillion other than Roy.
