    This has probably been discussed in previous threads already,  apologies if I'm beating a dead horse: what is the difference between the Max yamato 1/60s & the Arcadia 1/60s?

    I'm sure the correct thread for that discussion is buried somewhere, but check out this link, explains it all in detail

    Just rewatched SDF Macross.. I regret not buying the TV Max DX. Oops! Oh well. Maybe sometime I'll trade an unopened GBP Armor + some cash for a Max.. I SERIOUSLY Doubt theres any chance of a reissue of Max VF-1A TV version.. There's nothing to add to it to resell it.. Unless they want to add a 'missiles on the tailfins' edition :D

     

    They are going at auction for about 30,000yen, still semi reasonable.  Go through a proxy and get one.

    You know what, I don't want to ruin that cover art for anyone, so I'm going to spoiler this, but I just cannot not see this.

    That armor doesn't usually evoke that, but I think that particular angle just makes me think it's a mech-elephant :lol: 

     

    Heffalumps and Woozels!  Who spiked the honey?

    I do, but I don't have the stickers attached to it. The new ones are hands down better.

    No question, I was more curious about the comparative proportions.  Interesting that Bandai seems to have made the legs thinner, and the arms beefier.  Other proportions seem similar.  I don't have the standard Yamato GBP, but I do have the Urban Cammo GBP with Low Vis Valk, and the Forest Cammo GBP with Forest Cammo Valk.  I'm planning on displaying them together.

    I got mine today. I'm not sure if I like the super big hands or not.  The super big hands don't twist and you have to place them in 90 degree angles. Anyways, here are some pictures:

    Very cool, Do you have an old Yamato 1/48 GBP to pose it next to?

    Armored parts shipped out too. but its by slow BOAT..... so eta 2-3 months :ph34r:

    These are the pictures I took last week of all the container ships anchored outside Long Beach Port waiting to get in to make you feel better.  😈

    Actually I'm extremely sympathetic, I'm still waiting on my VF-1D's sent surface, and will be sending my GBP's the same way.  :cray:

    Seems JoyToy is doing a Incusor squad.  Article from WarCom. They hit pre-order next week.

    Seems that GW is spreading their IP around to things other then video games.  Also anyone here get in on the Warhammer+ service? I did but wanted to get other opinions that have. 

    The fact that that GW's is acting like a typical corporation and killing great things like Emperor TTS makes me never want to give them another dollar again.  That series was soooo over the top witty and hilarious, but GW doesn't control it soooooo...... dead.

    Just saw the movie. Worry not the eyes are appropriately blue.

    Worth seeing in the theater too.

     I think I like the movie but it is problematic that it just ends like that. It is somewhat of a conclusion even if they don’t make any more.

    What I mean by that is that throughout the movie Paul has visions of the future so you can piece together how the story will probably end.

    His visions are never 100% accurate so though.

    I think it would be better if they followed the LotR approach and film everything at once.

    Arrakis could be a bit more foreign and less like a dessert on earth for me.

    I‘m also not a fan of the worm design. For me they need to have the three lips that they can close to a cone when they dive into the sand.

    Make sure you lucky people able to see this earlier than us in the USA follow Scyla's example for the next few weeks and hide spoilers.

    That is true about the Beta. :good:

    Absolutely love those ratchet joints.

    As good as it is, after more than 10 years, there are areas where the design can be improved from Toynami’s.

    So, I’m hopeful Sentinel takes the chance to make their version.

    Yeah, it still has some major flaws, the cockpit in transformation will take some serious t-rex rejiggering, and the front missile bay doors were just a stupid shortcut on an otherwise awesome toy.

    Yeah, I’d prefer to call the Toynami an arthritic horse with glass for bones that can barely hold a pose and will collapse into a brittle heap at the slightest breeze.

    Yeah couldn’t agree more, that Beta/TREAD is a beast though, very solid.
