  1. So Arad's 31s is getting mailed out two days before the official release date of those who have it pre-ordered from NY. Wasn't that the asking price for Arad's or was ¥24k? I honestly don't remember anymore since I have Mirage's. Edit: Maybe after the post pre-orders if anyone was missed it?
  2. Don't forget that the both wings are floppy when the bombs and the fuel tanks are strapped on either Ivanoff's or Nora's and the weight of it will droop the wings downwards and other notable issues as per the 3 versions. I wonder how Arcadia will fix the sliding locking mechanism (metal bar) when the wings are used in extended mode as they don't have the proper locking dent on the Yammie version as they slide back into the body of the valk (very loose and the metal bars are too short IMO).
  3. On Toyark... http://news.toyark.com/2018/07/17/geccos-bloodborne-the-old-hunters-1-6-scale-statue-toyark-photo-shoot-306037 Sideshow's Yoda: http://news.toyark.com/2018/07/17/star-wars-the-empire-strikes-back-yoda-sixth-scale-figure-by-sideshow-306136 Mythos Fett (and a pre-order for this is up): http://news.toyark.com/2018/07/17/star-wars-mythos-boba-fett-figure-from-sideshow-306106
  4. There has been a influx of Sheryl and Ranka that is widely available on Manda and other sites while Delta has been a hit and a miss..
  5. Just thought of this now. If the Macross heroine figures continues, they should add May Fong Lone (from Macross +), Milla (DYRL, Macross 7), Mirage [and possibly Miku Miku and Fre Fre] (Delta).
  6. I've seen the 1/60 Yammie V.2 Super O on Manda going for roughly ¥60k yen (?) and a Yammie 1/60 VF-1 with Green Supers (Vermilion Squad colour) for ¥50k yen (?). On Jungle is the Yammie 1/60 M&M valks for ¥50k yen (?) each. I'm just estimating on the prices here since I'm at work right now and taking a short break. It's slowly crawling up in price for the 31a, in regards to the old Yammie valks and the VF-0. Edit: Changed the listing to Jungle for the M&M valks. For those who are Die Hard G1 TF fans, isn't the listing for Grand Max is close to $2 million plus USD (if you can find it that is).
  7. Another 31a is up on Amiami. Note this one is 52K yen though.. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-037326-R&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Finc_txt2%3D7%24s_cate3%3D986%24s_originaltitle_id%3D12816%24s_st_condition_flg%3D1%24s_st_list_backorder_available%3D1%24s_st_list_newitem_available%3D1%24s_st_list_preorder_available%3D1%24pagemax%3D40%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D2
  8. Didn't see this until today while sifting through BBTS list of 1/6th figs and the upcoming pre-orders. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/75363

    Macross figures

    That's what @Lolicon was mentioning about in his post on 2018/04/12 about the clear plastic under the feet and that they crumble after a certain amount of time; however, your copy of Nyan Nyan Ranka is different issue. I'm planning to get the Miclone Klang and it looks like that I will have to remove the clear base and use the cement glue (for model kits) to tack on the foot to the base..

    Macross figures

    Thanks for the proper link @sh9000. I might get a few of these as well into my collection.

    Macross figures

    Going to poke my head into this thread and mention if anyone has seen this? http://news.toyark.com/2018/07/11/super-7-robotech-reaction-figures-305591 Most likely that HG has totally ticked off a huge chunk of Macross fans due to the multiple lawsuits against not importing Macross related items into the US and the muiltiple lawsuits against other companies as well. On a side note, I have planned to get a few figures as of now, however will have to save up some funds.
  12. Now gone! Back track to the DVD cover release to the Delta Movie.. The Armoured parts to the 31 on the missile racks has the 171 Armoured vibe, however, will the movie explain the "ring like appendages" towards the end of the valk in battriod mode?
  13. Impressed! Maybe you can slightly highlight the scar above on his left eye. It's also one of Usagi's trademark as Sakai-san has been doing in his strips. I wish that they can do Tomoe and Gen for the lineup however, I think that Sakai-san has other plans. Edit: Maybe on the katanas as well if you have time.

    Hi-Metal R

    It's possible that the art for Nexx's VF-2ss will have the same artwork and look as Silvie's. Just replace the red with the blue and voila (minus the additional artwork for the gunpod storage)! Look at the box art for Hikaru's and Roy's Strike VF-1s above on technoblue's post. It's the same valk, just add the needed changes to the colour and background (unless you want it like the ET boxart for their VF-2ss).
  15. Was looking at @spacemanoeuvrespost of the Armoured valks and thinking that I was done with getting Mirage's 31c and the Supers... Nope! I guess the Armoured set is next plus thinking about getting another 1/6th figure. Edit: I wonder how much will that Armoured parts set my budget back this time round?
  16. Would love to get the 1/48 Stampede SDP-1 kit (102) for my VF-1s Hikaru, however I will still be satisfied with the 1/60 version (most likely) and put it on Roy. Even the VF-11C got the Stamped/Thunder Hummer like armour from Macross 7 (more of the Stampede vibe though). Pic from Macross Mecah Manual.
  17. @mamboeidos: There's is also wotafa's review on the Draken if you're still stuck as well.

    Hi-Metal R

    Hmm.. We all know that the Super O is being released in the latter week of August/first week of September and art of the N-Ger has been shown done by Tenjin, is it plausible that the N-Ger might be the works? If a TWE offering of M&M's Q-rau in a combo set does get made, count me in! Even a single release of the one in green and white will suffice for me as well.
  19. @dj760: The Angel Birds are the true kicker for me more than the PE VF-0s! Hopefully that it didn't cost you a major setback on your budget.
  20. Who's the maker of Quorra and Jem? Jem's got that sultry look on her and it makes you to do a double think on her.. Edit: I did more digging. It's Frost Vision Studio that did the Quorra and Jem. Pics on Deviant Art and has a Facebook Page account. That 1/6th scale HT Tron Iron Man will set me back close to $560+ CND if I should decide to get it..
  21. @JetJockey: I have just seen this on YouTube on regarding Tron Legacy figures. Was there anymore or was it just vaporware afterwards (and never brought up again)? Edit: Read on Sideshow forums that Tonner charged almost $200 USD for either Quorra or Jem. There's some kitbashes of the Quora Cos Play stuff on the RPF website. This actually an uncanny resemblance: https://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=175438 Spinmaster and Disney Infinity as done some of the Tron Legacy stuff and someone has done a custom Quorra headscupt on ebay for kit bashes. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Limited-Collectible-1-6-Scale-Quorra-Tron-Legacy-Olivia-Wilde-Head-Sculpt/162044649605?hash=item25ba9d2085:g:B9gAAOSwd3dXF6XG
  22. I was just thinking about Arcadia's announcement that @no3Ljm further explained in depth.. Since you guys are discussing about the possibilities of the YF-19, will the YF-21 be a option (or has the reigns been given to Bandai)? Edit: I think that Bandai has gotten a fair grab in this as they have the DX YF-19 with all the goodies and the fold booster, however they haven't issued the YF-21 yet. Only Yamato has made the YF-21 for Macross Plus and the VF-22 for Macross 7.
  23. Do you want a Tron Legacy Light Cycle @no3Ljm? Make sure that you have enough funds for this.. Note: Unfortunately the seller is located overseas in H.K. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/TRON-LEGACY-SAM-FLYNN-WITH-LIGHT-CYCLE-HOTTOYS-HOT-TOYS-MMS142-FIGURE-ES-AQ2958/352394146686?hash=item520c53f37e Here's a snippet of what I read in the Sideshow Collectors forum about the HT Tron Legacy 1/6th figures being cancelled. Wor-Gar: "I'm really sad HT dropped this line, and that Disney dropped the movies. I was hoping for Rizler and his bike." Marine Boy: "Plans for a sequel were shelved when Disney acquired Star Wars. Look at the mess they made of that. The figures themselves were disappointing. Kevin Flynn was a lacklustre release and the figure on the bike was essentially a statue. The bike itself is cool, my only gripe is that the spinning "engine" does not light up. If they had made Clu, Quorra or Sam Flynn as normal figures, the line would have done better." GipettoO812: "Totally agree. HT dropped the figures and SS dropped all their intent on a series of statues. The sad part is, with the new tech they're using on Black Panther's suit to make it glow depending on lighting without using LEDs would be great to come back to this license and make articulated figures. Except we know they won't do it." Not to veer off the thread: LEGO ideas has made the Tron Legacy set..
  24. I'm not that fussy.. I rather see the updated samples of Ivanoff first as I know that Nora and the CF versions are in the pipeline afterwards like Yamato's.
  25. The next plucky droid (life size) after R2. http://news.toyark.com/2018/07/05/star-wars-bb-8-life-size-figure-by-sideshow-304849 However there is a few things that they could add (see Dukefett's post). Edit: Didn't see these until I went back a few pages. http://news.toyark.com/2018/07/05/concept-art-captain-america-1-6-scale-figure-by-hot-toys-304689 http://news.toyark.com/2018/07/05/tchaka-black-panther-1-6-scale-figure-by-hot-toys-304665
