another Zuntata

@no3Ljm is keeping us all updated with the latest

not going to lie, all this new SOC going out there with a build fighters release and the continuing of the 00 MB releases and not a gp-02 in sight got me bothered. 

We'll probably see metal build GPB-04B Beargguy before 0083

I want to get the Ostrich but I'm not sure where's the best place to buy them now. I've been mostly buying through eBay lately. I haven't bought from an overseas online retailer since pre pandemic, and that was usually through Nippon Yassan, I didn't even know about the fraud that took place with NY till recently. Is Yokakunow popular to use now? I was checking out Luna Park but I don't get why they have a regular store and a "premium" store. 

Yokakunow, is relatively new so i can't say one way or another. I'll be finding out once they ship out the VT-1.

Nice, at least with two and "IF" you choose to display them, you can do one with Misa & one with Minmay. 

I feel you with the lack of display space, I have to get creative with the limited room I have.

How many did you order?

Only 2. I'm in the Bay Area but all my Macross collection is still in East Coast. I have very minimum space so I can't buy as much.

I ordered from Nippon Yassan 2.0.  Yoyakunow  

VT-1 looks so gud. 

i can't wait...

Well I ordered two GN Arms so one of them was going to be dual wielding either missles or dual snipers

This delta toy is for no one. Delta had a poor audience. WWM release won't move the needle in any significant direction. Major shelf-warmer incoming.

Or they could just bundle the base 31A with Super Parts. It's the only 31 I'm going to rebuy if they do that.  

Oooo, i need this one...

Now that I looked back on the Tamashii page for the 31J with Speakerpods, the blurb seems pretty inconsistent. On one hand they make a big deal about Absolute Live, as if it came from that movie (the movie doesn't show it). Even the box has the Absolute Live logo.

On other hand, in the same page they acknowledge it comes from the series' Episode 6. Which we know the Speakerpods are shown with Supers. 

 

 

how come the new release doesn't come with speakers?  320 us prices, i would like reaction missiles and speakers

320? US prices ....hard pass

I'll just say that for a 16 year old mold, the tolerances & precision beats many toys today, including the DX, which qualify as a legendary mold in my view. It may not have the heft of a DX for its size, as it has very little metal. But the plastics is strong, withstands many transformations (though there are one or two areas that need caution less they break), and the joints won't really go weak over time.

I thought the lack of a Koji face for the pilot was inexcusable. 😒

I would have liked it as well, but I just think about it as the test type that it was with a generic test pilot. It is strange though, but definitely not a deal breaker especially when it’s tough to see inside. 

Why Koji? Kusumoto was the ace. her face would sell more kits 

i wonder if this can transform without flaking off.

Never heard of this band, but thoroughly enjoyed the performance! It does make one feel as if sitting together in a room with them. 

Yes, Fuji doing tiny desk is great.
