  1. I still have some projects that I hope Cap will take on, but Co-vid is not helping as you would imagine. ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ Be great to see your build when its done. Be awesome to see it next to completed Gosu. ๐Ÿ˜
  2. Arrived today. Quite a hefty parcel, as each box also contains a Skysled.๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  3. Why bother at all then? Without the classic iconic designs you might as well be watching something else entirely.
  4. Not interested in any of these. Although I'm glad they did Snowspeeder Luke. Where's that damn Deathstar Trooper/Imperial Naval Trooper you showed us in 2015 Hot Toys?๐Ÿคจ
  5. Imagine if we got a 1/48 Boquomouxy Quel Quallie. It would the better part of 3 m in length.๐Ÿ˜†
  6. Its saves space and weight, also customs and shipping in some cases. But when (not if-when) your storage device crashes you lose everything (I've had back-ups of back-ups crash).
  7. The ugly part is what coloured visors are for.
  8. Oh why ever not, they're nifty little Battroids that you don't ever have to transform. And as and added bonus they are not oversized in comparison to the HMR Regult.
  9. Whoa, I recognise that profile pic from the Dinosaur Lords! I have that trilogy I just have to get around to reading it.๐Ÿ˜ƒ Bonus for you. I pretty much ignore most of the post nineties comics, other than the occasional cosmic and sci-fi stuff. Or short runs featuring characters or cross-overs I really like. I would have preferred a classic red and yellow Jessica Drew for the two pack tbh.
  10. Argh! Amazing Spidey comes as a 2-pack with Mary Jane posing as yet another unsolicited and totally unnecessary spider character. This just means I'm spending more for Spidey. I have no use for her.๐Ÿ˜’
  11. Looks around 20% of the order total. The downside is that they just use "Express Mail International" rather than an actual courier service, despite my insistence. So far none of their shipments to me have been stolen or left to rot at a processing hub by postal workers, but its just a matter of time. Using our PO is like playing Russian Roulette, except in this case there is only one empty chamber in the revolver (and only 10% of the time).
  12. Bandai teased the Regult Scout back in 2019. That is what should be next for them.
  13. I didn't ask, I just assumed it was Co-Vid related. Is there any reason why they wouldn't after the takeover? In any case their site doesn't allow it, and they informed me that their "Post Office has suspended all mailing services to your countries". Apparently that's going to be "when the Officer's Pod and Destroids are ready for pre-order". Logically this means the Destroids and Officer's Pod must be coming up for pre-order this year.
  14. So I have Ken the Eagle on pre-order. But I really hope they release the rest of the Gatchaman team. Or at least also Jun the Swan. Ken the Eagle doesn't really work for me by himself.
  15. Yes! My Houquet has just teleported into the Webway.๐Ÿ˜
  16. Wait, "features SEPARATE rolling eyeballs"? They better not roll independently or things could get weird.๐Ÿคช
  17. South Africa. Or more correctly, the Republic of South Africa (RSA).
  18. Vive la Difference!๐Ÿ˜„
  19. The new add-on only pledge option is a Godsend. Now I was able to quadruple my Zentraedi armour add-ons AND get the Flagship whilst almost halving my costs. As a further bonus I also don't get cluttered with human mecha I have no real interest in, or a game that I am probably never going to play. And you don't miss out on the stretch goals either, just ordered some Gnerls.
  20. I cancelled my orders with them (not their fault) due to China not shipping to SA, and who knows when that will change. So I and switched to BBTs, which they informed me is their US distributor. If I hadn't I would still be waiting for Roy Fokker. Three things I asked them about: Whether the pilot will have a rifle Whether the thrusters could be made to look pinkish (translucent pink bulbs?) rather than orange to be more show accurate. The date the pre-order will come up at BBTS And their answers are: The pilot will NOT come with a rifle The thruster colour they will have to discuss with, inter alia, the licensor. (This is entirely expected. While I believe that anime accurate differentiation of the sensor eye and thrusters light colour will enhance the product, its still just a suggestion from a single customer.) No specific date, but they did say that it would the same time that the "Officer's Pod and Destroids" come up from pre-order.
  21. So if the Regult is 19.685 cm then the 7.75 cm must be the pilot's height. That's rather small, but I guess he would have to be to fit in the cockpit.๐Ÿคจ
  22. My scientist niece has informed me that it's just one molecule short of being plastic.
