    Hlj is at least a hold your item kinda place, but I had an order I totally forgot about a hobby search that just came in stock. Not sure how that’s gonna go. It was only a $20 item and if not for shipping being stopped, it might’ve gotten that $80 fee tagged on top of shipping making a stupid little purchase something far more premium than it should be. I’ll probably have to email them regarding the situation

    It beats the usual method of cat distribution where a family member says something along the lines of “look what I found in the trash, I think we belong to it now”

    I gotta agree here. I don’t think it’s the Mouse, but recent anime and especially reboot anime in general these days. They all seem to have a similar or worse look compared to their classic counterparts.Worse being the look of the new Fist of the North Star. But the majority have this almost AI kinda look to the animation

    The new Robowreck icon

    I gotta see this one. I love B style dark fantasy movies from back in the day. And this has some odd casting as well as Slash as an executive producer. It’s either gonna be great or terrible in a great way, and either way it might be great to watch

    I don’t know if they really had time. They did give warnings the other week that things would be iffy and it was pretty much the other day when a few countries in the region announced that they would stop deliveries as a kind of protest or retaliation against the tariffs since the U.S. was dropping that de minimis exemption. These changes are sometimes coming in the fly and other times there’s a warning with a lot of speculation attached. I kinda think everyone was hoping for the exemptions to be extended rather than dropped.

    They’ll probably just overlap. Or they will do the rest as web exclusives. Just hoping they do the cannon fodder one, since that’s really the only one I want

    Since this is now a thing can we expect

    I used to work at a distribution center and there was a particular trucking company that came down from British Columbia that had just about every driver with the name Singh. I one day asked if they were related since we had a pre holiday backup and a few of them were hanging around waiting to be let in and none of them knew each other. I had never seen so many people with the same last name in one place, let alone that all worked for the same company and from the same location, yet was surprised that they didn’t know each other. Anyway, I’m sure he did the complex google search of finding the family through searching if they had a child that recently died with that particular name.

    Probably a bunch of little things and a butt ton of decals and probably some opening hatches and such

    Hadn’t heard that one in quite some time honestly. I still feel a bit down about how their breakup went. That’s why I’ve been kinda thinking they’re a mix of technological and a bit less biological. Like rather than just a psychic link, more of a sort of wi fi type of thing going on.

    It’s up for preorder at hlj, not sure when or if you’ll get one though
  13. Big s
    That really sucks. At least you won’t get addicted to anything

    Ouch, sounds horrible. Hopefully you can recover soon and I hope they gave you some good stuff for the pain

    There’s actually a thread somewhere for it, but I never see it. Personally I think a lot of us just see things like that here or in the model section whenever someone posts it in random threads more often than its dedicated thread. Unfortunately things are very complicated for toy collectors and model builders since the majority of our favorite things come from countries that are affected. At least HLJ is ok with holding our stuff in the Private Warehouse, but then there’s the question of how long is this situation gonna last? Will it be months or even years? Things had already been going up in prices and now these new tariffs are probably gonna pump up the prices even more. But hopefully this will kinda blow over soon and things can get back to normal. I got a big backlog already and when my stuff over there finally gets shipped, I’m gonna have an instant backlog boost

    Looks awesome, I’ll definitely get that one

    Sounds like one of the main methods of cat distribution. Gotta watch those items on the shelves. Cats are notorious for redecorating high spots

    I love this toy, and it also makes me mad at the same time, because I hate that Bandai can’t make an anime looking kit of this design for the model builders.

    I’ll be posting some pics here and there for sure. I usually am loaded with ideas, but have terrible time management.

    It still looks cool even without the diorama. Unfortunately, I didn’t finish in time. I got the majority of the hard work done, primed the model and got a base color and a rough camo on it, but ran out of time due to stuff around the house. But I still plan to finish it up since I got pretty far already. I was gonna add some body and arm stripes, and of course decals and weathering. then I gotta do the interior and pilot and a bit of weathering on the inside to make things look a bit lived in since the pilot face looks a bit on the aged side (the guy’s face in the box pictures has grey facial hair). I don’t think I want him that old, but I would like to try a little bit of grey streaks to give a been there done that kinda look I got a small base to attach the brass rods for a display and I want to do a sorta lunar surface kinda look. I also had scratch built a tower that I want to make look like a sorta communications use signal tower thingy. I’m just gonna take my time since I already didn’t make the deadline. I think if I had another week or two, I’d have had it finished, but as a consolation, I get to take my time at this point

    They’ll probably tease us for another decade or so

    I usually luck out there and haven’t had a problem with their Macross stuff, but did not luck out on the Gallus J. I guess I’ll just have to try a stateside place

    If I tried to make phaser sound with my mouth, I’d probably sound like that drunk trying to sing along to a Mercyful Fate concert at the high note.
  24. Big s
    Oh, I guess I figured for a guy like me the pack gives the options that should already be included in the fighter kits.

    Why can’t you mix and match?
