shipping from Mandarake of a VF-31E just cost me 4330 yen for shipping via DHL, so I think that prices have gone up. Twich -
Going back about 40 pages, I noticed that several people have been having the gap at the knee joint, while grabbing to the sight, it does not really detract too much from the jet. My major issue, being the fact that the left wing will not sit tightly against the leg, I have shaved down the tabs going into the leg to see if it was a fit problem that way, but it hasn't really changed anything. I will not shave anything more off of the tab, and realistically, these are minor annoyances, but not ones that I experienced on my VF-31F Messer/Hayate version. I really love both of my VF-31's and do not regret buying them at all. It is just making me wanting to know more about the plans for future valk releases coming from the next Delta movie and the future. We got the VF-25G Tornado and the whole slew of YF-29 toys from the second Macross Frontier movie....how many DX toys will we get from this one. Twich

So these are pics of all the gaps and of the area where the wing hooks into the leg by the foot on the left side of fighter mode. The fact that the right leg remains extended in fighter mode at the knee joint puzzles me, as you would think that would be the side that doesn’t line up. Comparing it to my DX VF-31F Messer/Hayate release from passionate Walkure, they don’t seem to fit together the same. I am puzzled…. Twich

I believe that it is a really good design for both fighter and battroid, the Gerwalk is strange, but the real beast is trying to transform the DX toy. Who knows what the new movie will bring to us as far as new DX toys....one can hope. Twich

So question to the community who own VF-31's. I recently got a new, unopened VF-31E from Mandarake. I have noticed an issue with the legs/intakes staying connected while in fighter mode, and also, where the wing on the left side of fighter mode slides into the leg at the back of the fighter mode, near the feet. It will not fully engage into the slot made for it, I don't want to force it, but if I don't keep pushing on it, the wing will disengage from the leg and make the leg flop around. I have transformed it to try to workout the kinks associated with a new DX from the factory, but the issue has not resolved. Does anyone have any suggestions? The problem seems worse when the radar dish is deployed. Twich

Wow, really makes me wish they would improve/revise the SV-262 DX mold and given us more variants. Twich

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next

I am interested in the Masterpiece Starscream ver 2.0, and was interested to see that they have changed the main landing gear placement for the toy, I was glad that it wasnt the little stubby wheels that flip out of the kneecaps that we got on the MP-3/11 molds. Twich- 17353 replies

All Things Videogame Related: EXTREME VS!!
twich replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I guess the big buzz at midnight pacific time on 5/27/21 is the leak by Bloomberg article stating that the Nintendo Switch "Pro" will be shipping Sept/Oct and will be revealed before E3. It also states that it will be more expensive than the regular Nintendo Switch, which it will replace.......but of course, until we hear from Nintendo, this is just speculation. Twich -
My condolences to all involved.

Went searching on YouTube and found your two videos , your VF-9 seems very durable. Is that a special material that you used to construct? Or is that regular shapeways material? Love the design! Thank you, you video was very informative! Twich

Forgive my ignorance, and this is very sad, but what does this mean? Not trying to be insensitive….

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
twich replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
Maybe the new “enemy” is the New UN Spacy. The drone fighter that harassed the new VF-31A’s belonging to Chuck and Mirage seemed to give them a lot more trouble than a few Lil Drakens did, could be earth based tech that is more powerful than we could know(ala speculation that earth spec VF-24 has Uber stats)….who knows, guess we will all find out when the new delta movie releases/streams/beams into our heads via mind probe Twich -
Macross Delta Zettai Live!!!!!! - Available on Blu-ray Sept 28, 2022
twich replied to Marzan's topic in Movies and TV Series
Anyone else think it is funny that we have yet to see any hint of Hayate's new mecha? Wonder if he will get a new design that is completely different from the VF-31, ala the VF-25 to YF-29. I know we have the new "enemy" mecha design, but the more designs and moreover, the more DX toys we get, the better. Twich -
If I am understanding Google Translate correctly, looks to be up for pre-order on June 3rd, 2021 with October 2021 release https://tamashii.jp/item/13624/ 23,100 yen with tax included 22,000 yen without tax Says general store release ( I think, as per Google Translate) Twich

I wonder if this will be the first of the official Bandai Macross DX toys that gets released to places like the US. I know that BBTS had a VFG Klan Klan VF-25G model that went up for pre-order, I wonder if we will get this at places like BBTS. We are supposed to get more information on this on 5/21/21, which, I think it is that day in Japan right now...... Twich

Awesome! Thanks!

As I cannot read Japanese, is that picture of the two mission packs there to say “look how similar they are” or “we are including these both in this release”? thanks Twich

Graham, who is indeed a site admin, did have an "in" with the company Yamato. Once Yamato folded, it seems doubtful that he would have any say or an "in" with either Arcadia or Bandai. If I am not mistaken, he lives in Hong Kong, so if anything, he might have some familiarity with Kitzconcept, since aren't they based out of Hong Kong. I think that Bandai has plans with everything that they do, and we will not know about it until they announce it. Twich

So, is there confirmation that this release will have updated the nosecone attachment? The set comes with the grey goggles head, but will it still have the same tampograph markings? twich

Both of your drawings are very interesting. Is the second, colored drawing that you have of a sort of stylized SV-51? I think that the first drawing reminded me of what the UN Spacy version of the VAB-2D, though we dont really see it, just what the Varuta have made, the FBz-99G. I like your drawings, thank you for sharing them with us. Twich

So how long before Macross Delta debut did we start to see images of the Bandai DX toys? If the second movie is out this year, then we can anticipate some DX toys from it. We should get: 1) Delta Squad VF-31 #06 2) New enemy valk 3) New VF-31A Mirage Custom 4) New VF-31A Chuck Custom 5) Other Delta members getting new “A” Variants? 6) possible drone/variable drone that Chuck and Mirage fight Any other ones to expect/hope for? of course, new fast packs New/remold of SV-262Ba? Twich

so, that was a concept add for an up and coming UAV? Was that french or spanish? or south american? Looks cool, kinda like the drone for the back of the VF-0 Twich

I would rather they release a premium finish VF-1J Hikaru Ichijo as the 40th anniversary scheme and call it good, but alas, a pipe dream......
