  1. I don’t think that the SV-262 deployed without the missile packs and lil’Drakens Twich
  2. Have to notice that this official picture isn’t as gappy as Kieth’s ride. Either they are photoshopping or this is a tighter, non-gappy release. Twich
  3. Finally! Thank you for posting this! Twich
  4. Great review Jenius! Thank you for setting me straight on what way to install the vertical stabilizer fast pack parts! I’ve been doing it wrong and the instructions are less than clear on the matter, being shown upside down and in Battroid mode. Twich
  5. Look at his first evolution toy review of the VF-2SS. He was not happy with the toy at all, understandable so! Twich
  6. I’m curious if anyone has an idea of when this will be available from BBTS. I know that it usually takes 2 months on the slow boat from China, but again, anything more concrete that 3rd Quarter 2024? Thanks! Twich
  7. Just got notice that this shipped out from ShowZstore! I guess I will find out in 15-25 business days! Twich
  8. My thoughts after handling it over night….. I am scared to try to transform it! I am truly impressed with the level of detail and engineering that went into making this transformable toy! First off, the fast packs: mine do not stay firmly attached at all the fastening points. The fast pack parts that attach to the vertical stabilizer/ arm shield do not go in fully and it looks “sloppy”. I am not discounting user error in this, but the directions are less than stellar in explanation and detail. Next, the two sets of gunpods….Bandai knew that people would use the fake ones for mounting to the toy in fighter mode, because the gunpods are so floppy when you use the “real” gunpods, that it makes them unusable on the toy in fighter. While the toy has the fast packs, they have a little hook in the front of the attachment points that keeps them together and tight and unable to be floppy. Overall, I’m impressed so far. I can remember getting the first Yamato 1/72 YF-21 and thinking Wow! This is so cool! Then the revision with fast packs came out, and I thought, they did even better! I then managed to get a Yamato 1/60 VF-22S Millia Custom. I thought the engineering was so cool, but I could not keep the legs on, and they popped off on their own. I ended up selling the VF-22S off, much to my chagrin. I am very happy with my purchase and look forward to Jenius’ Scorched Earth Toys videos on the Bandai DX Chogokin YF-21! Twich
  9. Anyone else know an easy trick to get the fast pack part to attach to the vertical stabilizer? I don’t want to push too hard and break something! Twich
  10. Just today got my copy of the DX YF-21 and the Hi Metal R VF-0A +Ghost Booster, both from BBTS! No bent head laser! Twich
  11. Yes! How much would a kit like this be? With all the hardware, nuts and pins and screws needed to build it? Twich
  12. Got this update email as well, looks like it is going to be quite a thing come December. Twich
  13. Does anyone know if Toynami will display their upcoming Mospeada stuff at New York Comicon? Twich
  14. Does anyone know if this toy maker will be at the upcoming New York Comicon? Twich
  15. It amazes me the amount of detail and originality of this design! Please keep us posted with all of your custom Macross variable fighters! Twich
  16. My Avatar is a SD YF-19. This was one of my favorite Variable Fighters at the time in the early 2000’s when I found MacrossWorld. Twich
  17. You could think of it like the US Marine Amphibious Assault Ship. It does the deployment of Marines, but also hovercraft, landing craft, vehicles, tanks, Artillery and Helicopters and Harriers. If the deck is coated with the heat resistant material, even F-35B’s Twich

    Hi-Metal R

    Seeing this makes me wish and hope that Bandai does a DX VF-2SS. I just love that design and have for decades! Twich
  19. I maybe in the minority, but I think the more companies that we have making VF-1, Mospeada ride armors and legioss/tread transformable mecha, the better it is. I happen to like this. If it is 1/60 scale, or bigger, then so much the better. I am a little leery about the 1/18 scale Legioss, but I am really liking it and hope it is easily available. Twich
  20. I paid for this all from the start, but haven’t received any word as to availability or shipping. Also Australia to US, says 15-25 business days to ship and receive. So I’m hoping by October. Twich
  21. Looks like this maybe in stock at ShowZstore? I have never ordered from them, so I have no clue. Twich
  22. Well, that looks pretty cool and is quite the stand display for a Hi Metal R toy! Looking forward to what is ahead! Twich
  23. Devils? So, which smells are those in the US supposed to be smelling? Does it mean we have taken the bait? We need a shower? The cross cultural nuisances can be so confusing. I’m just waiting for the release date on this FUGU God of Flame VF-1S from ShowZstore. Twich
  24. Looks like this is in stock at BBTS! Twich
  25. Any word on when in August BBTS is supposed to get their stock in? Twich
