    Strike A Pose! revisted...

    I keep thinking why the proportions look strange, before realising they are the ones from the recent movie lol. Which company made these?

    The Korean reviewer with the super long livestream review has received the Weathered 1J:

    There's more new concept art posted over at https://aic-r.com/. But this 'Garland Dresser' totally has Motoslave vibes all over it.

    That is one big Prime! I'm guessing it's the one by Lewin. Was so tempted by it at one time.

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    MKT replied to seti88's topic in Toys

    This sure sounds like exactly the kind of thing Bandai would do lol

    It seems the sketches were done 40 years ago when he was in school, and he's showing them off for the first time.

    I keep telling myself I don't need the YF-19 PF lol.. Over time I do prefer Arcadia's interpretation over the DX, & the PF represents the ultimate version of it.

    Pilot / Glugerr finally being adressed, though still no timeline given. Also, Recon Battlepod is mentioned.

    I played this a lot on the Saturn last time, and forgotten this track existed. Great memories lol.

    Nice review @jenius This is probably one of rare instances where the lights justify the trouble of batteries & fiddling with the switches etc. The cockpit interior looks absolutely amazing. Now we know why the legs sometimes look a bit weird before. It's not so much the upper legs are thick, but more of the ankles and feet are large lol. Another minor nitpick: The grey plastics seem to be multitone at different sections. For eg, some parts are definitely a warmer / yellowish grey, while other parts are of a cooler shade.

    Does this belong here..? https://chowbrick.com/jiestar-58144-sdf1-macross-w-lights_p5977.html

    I remember seeing the NECA Spinner before, was hesitant then because would like the doors to open for something of this size. Now TZ's gonna make it with more details, but unfortunately the size is quite a bit smaller..

    I don't have any Pose+ products, but I'm more impressed by them for each new product they put out. The amount of thought that goes into design & engineering, whilst maintaining the aesthetics of the source material is just amazing. Based on the way the blue paint reflects on the Tri-charger, it looks like it's gonna be metal for the majority of the toy, akin to Arcadia's Garland. I love how the display monitor have various graphics that can be swapped out. But I think the star of the whole package is JJ himself. Just the way he integrates well & articulates with the Tri-charger really brings character to the toy. No surprise based on Pose+ previous works in combining man & machine in a way that I haven't seen from other toy makers. Pose+ even went as far as designing extra adapters to accommodate other 1/18 figures to ride on the Tri-charger. We have been waiting for new interpretations of BGC Motoslaves for some time, and always thought Arcadia and perhaps Sentinel would be best candidates to realise them. But after seeing this, I think Pose+ would be the best toymaker to handle it, since slave mode really demands good integration between rider & slave.

    Quite interested in this. Having spinners from both the original and 2049 would be cool. Another item I wish someone would tackle, other than resin kits, would be the Bubbleship from Oblivion.

    Ditto on the 21's landing gears. It barely seems to support the weight of the toy. I don't have it readily accessible now, but I also remember the rear landing gear bay doors are quite thick plastic, so it's a bit of dissonance to handle beefy bay doors but with a weedy gear popping out of them. It may be a small detail, but it does add up to the other weird feeling stuff overall on this toy.

    I like that despite it has the same transformation scheme from the 25, the 27 looks so different & unique.

    Whats next for Arcadia?

    MKT replied to w8kbrder's topic in Toys

    In most ways, the ideal improvements would be like what Arcadia did for the Yamato VF-0 and SV-51. Not much change sculpt wise, just beef up the engineering & internals.

    Now I wish the HMR version will be announced next.

    After more than a year, some updates on the M23 reboot. Inexplicably, the updates always use very low-res pics at the start, and then gradually it'll be updated to high-res ones. Using translations for the names: T-Bar XI Atmospheric jet https://aic-r.com/1841 T-Bal Extra Atmospheric jet https://aic-r.com/1847 Pluto non-variable jet https://aic-r.com/1851 Hagan (Hargun) https://aic-r.com/1859 Space Hagan https://aic-r.com/1869 Zero Hagan https://aic-r.com/1875

    I've been hankering for an Alpha+Beta combo since forever, and nearly pulled trigger on the CM ones several times. Glad Sentinel's finally completing the combo. Still, these Toynami ones still look good & worth keeping for display.

    Whats next for Arcadia?

    MKT replied to w8kbrder's topic in Toys

    I'm also thinking if the licensing costs have also gone up quite a bit for Arcadia outside of SDFM/DRYL valks? The fee increase may be outside what Arcadia is comfortable to justify since they may not have any actual data on how much international volume they can move.
