Re-cast, re-cast, re-cast!

Ah ok, figured it out. It's cause it's a preorder. Then it will show up on my Paypal. Cool. Can't wait. Now the only question being if I get a Quarter this month, too. Aye, my wife is gonna kill me. Tread, VF-27, and Quarter? I still want an Armored Ozma, too...

Looks great. I ordered it from Ami Ami. Didn't show up on my paypal yet, nor did I see a spot to specifically add my payment. I assume they're just going to be looking at my email address?

Yeah, my only Revy's are the Regults, which seem solid enough. Hell, one of the only games in town until Toynami gets their vinyl one out and I've given up hope it will have half the articulation.

I had mostly decided not to buy a VF-25, not liking the deviations from... Yamato... level of detail I'm used to seeing, as well as some of the negatives from various reviews. Haven't seen a whole lot either way on the long term durability and all discussion has been confined to a couple monstrous threads (instead of one thread per release, as I might have expected, as well as poll threads) that I have poked in on now and then. I'm basically waiting for first reports on the VF-27 and if they sound good, I'm likely to jump in since it's my favorite Valk since the VF-22S.

This is the Armored Ozma? Maybe I won't get one after all. :eek:

When did you get yours? This month is half off shipping at Ami Ami. Am VERY close to ordering the VF-27... otherwise, I'll get the Quarter.

Gonna build my new rig then maybe do ST: Online. Core i5 or Core i7 is the magic question right now...

pics please. Sovereign is probably my favorite design behind the Constitution Refit.

Is the Beta in SC? Any Alphas other than that pink Maia one?

Really? I'd love to pick one up on the cheep. Who's the best price/least risk?

Ah you're talking about the front part? Yeah, that seems more of a design/tolerance fit issue. VF-19 shoulders should be tapered differently but I'm with you.

I'd like it if they did, though. I'd buy a back of 1/60 pilots and standing figures: TV Roy and Hikaru, Zero/low-viz v1 style, singing DYRL Minmay. Maybe include one or two of these in ground crew sets...

I was really hoping they would revisit all the Alphas with their improved techniques like the ratchets and hopefully better quality. THEN I would have considered the blue one. As it is, maybe I'll get a CM Legioss/Tread combo (if I can find one with the upgrade parts). The entry for the green Beta: "Volume 4 to follow, featuring the black Shadow Beta Fighter." :cry:

Damn, I was gonna buy a Shadow Beta for sure.

Eh, I'm just tired of the chicken skeleton hands. The hands on the Takara/Hasbro MP Seekers (Starscream, Skywarp, etc) are far better than just about every Yamato hand... They could tie the middle/ring fingers together, even if they can't do the Stone Cold salute like the MP Convoy/Optimus Prime. Guess I'd have to agree on the fixed pose hands if that's the only alternative. Maybe go with an old school closed fist or something that can stay on during transformation.

If you're a unix or linux type guy, wget pwns all.

Is there any way to know if any of the CM Upgrade parts are included in which of the evil bay listings? It's only in the Legioss/Tread combo, right?

You work on the Macross II page. Maybe I'll mirror this instead.

Oops. Well I did use the toslink out from my VAIO to my old AVR. Not the Denon, though. Probably overkill for most computers, tho

"No highs, no lows, must be Bose?" For a non-audiophile, they seem to induce satisfaction... I'd never get their stuff myself, though. Polk and Denon FTW!

Eh, doubt it could be worse than the Takara MP Starscream. I want ratcheted joints for shoulders and hips at a minimum and would like them for elbows and knees too. Most of all, I want Yamato to get better on the hands, though. Is 5-articulated fingers (at least at the knuckles) too much to ask for? Definitely hope for the chest lock. As far as the shoulders, it should hopefully work like the Fast Packs and click into the back of the leg

I'd probably say a variation on the legs used for the YF-21/VF-22 (bulkier, obviously) and with a ratchet for the hip joint...

That's the painful way. If you're using Mac OS X Leopard or higher, just edit /etc/hosts (need to sudo to save). For Windows XP: http://accs-net.com/hosts/how_to_use_hosts.html For Windows Vista:

it's up, you just have to tell your computer how to look for it.
