  1. I recently had a set of decals shipped from Hlj along with a few other items. Since the pandemic they were giving a courtesy of holding items in the private warehouse, but they only bugged me every couple months to ship. They never got pushy about it and some of those items were on hold for over a year. The emails only said hey we have shipping options, but never said ship now or else. The regult was only about $20 when I preordered it, so I had it shipped with a few other things to save on shipping. I think there are a few closer to home shops that have these listed, maybe check prices at local web sites. Near me Hobby Town gets the Macross kits every now and then, so maybe others will have them and it won’t be such a burden with cost
  2. Tekkaman Blade and all the other tekkamen always appeared glossy to me. They weren’t worn down real robots as much as techno magical armor. There were some situations where they would get battle damage or in Daggers case, refused to heal. The soldier types may look cool in a dull color, but the animation made them look shiny as well. i know orange cat industry has plans for a Tekkaman Evil and I hope there more down the line. The Orange Cat Blade definitely looks great and hopefully I’ll get the time to build it.
  3. I knew it was something like that. I think after the newer Judge Dredd, I never watched the old one after that
  4. Recycled food containers. Reminds me of that hallway robot in the first judge dredd movie . “Eat recycled food, it’s good for you.”
  5. I just saw it listed last month on amazon prime tv. I think a lot of shows and ova stuff had cool designs that deserve kits or toys, but sometimes there’s a surprise release like the kit from Venus wars
  6. Just got the notice that the regult is on it’s way. Hobbysearch has the instructions up Incase anyone is interested in previewing how things go together. And they have multiple pictures of the box showing several spots that say standard type, so more than likely we’ll at least get some missiles in upcoming releases and still hopefully a scout
  7. I think that’s the one from super robot wars. I forget the names of them, but there’s versions of the dunbine and gundam and others for their original designs that are pretty close to the mecha they’re based on. Then again, I could be wrong
  8. I have to agree with Thom. Here in the U.S. things aren’t perfect, but they’re pretty good and it’s mostly because we aren’t 100% capitalist or socialist. We try to take things that work from both spectrums and sometimes we fail, but for the most part we make it work
  9. I think there are ideas of communism that aren’t that bad and are being used and defended by our own country. There is a difference with dictatorship though.
  10. Ok, I get it now. I was idiotically trying to walk around the living room for a few minutes, but that explanation makes sense
  11. Shouldn’t the left arm be forward while walking. I tried walking with right foot and hand forward while the left side was back after seeing that picture and I’m really bad at it
  12. The part I don’t think anyone can get right on the GP01 and would be impossible if you want the kit to pose would be that waist armor connection to the upper thighs. There was a really good static garage kit that came out not too far back, but I’d have to go back a few dozen pages to find it
  13. It’s totally wrong for the original art, but they were going with the katoki redesigns on everything around that time. Personally I would like to see as close to a true Kawamori version as possible in either mg or hg. The rd version is probably the closest so far
  14. Younger audiences might get confused about that captain marvel stuff. Older audiences will be confused by the modern music
  15. Honestly, I didn’t like most of the original timeline movies that much. The first two were good from what I remember, but I really didn’t like the rest much if at all. The first reboot wasn’t bad but they definitely went downhill from there. As far as how much the second movies of both timelines made, as said earlier there definitely inflation to think about. If it’s only five times more than a movie from the 80’s, it was only a couple bucks for a movie ticket back then. The prices have gone up more than five times that much since then especially if you count some of those tickets were premium 3D and imax purchases. I’m not trying to be harsh on the theater since I know they are trying hard to stay profitable in competition with the streaming options
  16. It probably wouldn’t be too tough for someone to make copies of the figure. The details look like they are molded in as well, so you may not need the decals for him. I still hate that wave does this so often. Like I said on the previous page with the Votoms, you have to wait half a year and then the second release comes out with all the extras. The rabidly dog had no pilot or downform parts and didn’t even have a complete cockpit when I got my first one, so I understand the frustration a lot of people have that don’t know how they do things. I’ve been there. But at least with a standard release votoms kit it still looks cool, whereas this looked like it was missing something
  17. I totally agree. It just wouldn’t be the same. And he has that iconic voice that you know who it is even though it’s just a voice. From things like Adventure Time to Disenchantment and even newer shows like Inside Job, you hear his voice and know it.
