Never fails. Charge us now and it sits on the shipping docks for two or more months. 
“That’s how you really tick off your customers Mezc, and you ask for $400 USD or more, delay the shipping, screw us over”.

Are we we still getting Mezco 1:12 figures (or selected) after all the headaches and delays that they’ve been having lately? 
 

Gaslights Bat has still not shipped after more that a month of Mezco sending out the processing notice, but their in-house figures are somehow getting shipped out before the licensed items are officially released (Bart Rex is getting shipped out as I speak). 
 

Who here is actually going to quit getting stuff from Mezco completely? I be still getting stuff from Mezco, but not from themselves, but certain selective Rumble Society/Slugfest items that I have interest in. Others I can get from my two local hobby stores if and when they get officially released and a proper review is done. 

Anyone trying to get JND Joker if they can? Looks like they’re giving Hot Toys and Inart a run for the money.

I’ll see if I can upload the teaser. 
Edit: Here it is. 

The heck?? 

I’m sure that both versions of Spidey and IM MK.7 D100 was teased before without changes not long ago? This Spidey has got my interest more, but now it’s a triple tango with Endgame Liz Olsen (sculpted hair) and non tubby Lars Mikkelson. 
 

That’s maybe close to $1,500 Beaver Bucks that my rear end is paying for if I do get all three. 

@Froy - You read my mind as I was about to replay the same as you. It take 5/6 months for the final render of a DX to be officially released into the mass market if I'm not mistaken.

The DX YF-21 is to be out next summer, so maybe January of next year (or a Christmas Eve/Boxing day pre-order of this year? It has happened before IIRC) ??   

Send you the charging notice to see if you have the funds ready. Next step take away your funds when the rush for the holidays begins and takes their sweet time in sending it out to your doorstep more than a month later. 

One of the many reasons why Mezco is literally ticking off a fair chunk of their regular customers that purchases from them.  

One review (out of many) on Mezco Roadblock

Another review on Gaslights Bats 

It’s usually 5/6 months before the actual teased DX valk gets released. So if Bandai wants to release this valk in latter Q2/beginning Q3(hence summer of next year) then pre-orders should be will be up next month. Of course I can be totally wrong on that assumption. 
 

I dare Bandai will put the DX YF-21 into “Pengriod” mode when they have it for the next tease or opportunity to do so. 🤣

Can we see the DX YF-21 in pengriod please Bandai? 🤣

Most likely that the tolerances and QC will be exactly the same as the one from 2019 Full Set Edition. 
 

Super tight thigh joints that shears off when you try to do the transformation (like @onnasake’s copy), rear leg canards that loves to pop off when you breathe on it, possibly joint that crumbles when any of us move it from the clamshell and most important: Head Antenna that snaps into two when the top clam shell is put on. 
 

Not to mention the over the top and annoying tramp stamp plastered all over the 19. 🤪

Just like clockwork. HT teases stuff from the latest streaming shows and it gets officially released two years later with a “new” version up in the horizon. 
 

Quote from Lisa Simpson: “It’s the same Malibu Stacy, but with a new hat”. 
 

FOMO - It strikes you when you don’t expect it and you want to be with the others and not missing out on that opportunity to snag that item. 

Very predictable from HT. 

“Let’s pump out more IM as it’s always a best seller and everyone loves Tony Stark” 

Not me honestly, never got into the hype.

At least your not getting a 1:1 scale poly stone figure that will most likely cost you 2 grand @ValkAddict.  What secondary organs can you give up to get a copy of the DX 1s Mechanic Edition (or unwanted hobby items that you lost interest in)? 
 

Hmm... There where rumblings that the glider was not up to snuff years ago when Gaslights Bats was originally teased. Now its been changed for the final release and still it looks unproportionate.        

Bat Glider wings are too short on the final product from the teases more than two years ago and what's with the extra long spats?? 

Edit: And not to mention the un proportional noggin? 

Or call it “Bland DX YF-19 with Zero Flavour”.  
 

As per Nigel Ng’s comedy skit Uncle Roger: “Needs to add the King of Flavour: MSG” aka: Monosodium Glutamate. 

You don't need the Fast Pack on the YF-21 @PointBlankSniper, less Guld is chasing down Isamu for steeling his girl (however Guld might need the Fold Booster). Now that Fold Booster will most likely be a TWE add on as Bandai loves to drain our wallets even more for extra stuff. 

Thanks for the better pics @MKT as my post went into the Matrix.

Curious to see how this actually goes head to head with the Yammie in person when it officially releases in the summer of next year. Anyone want to guess the MRSP wen it goes up for pre-orders in a few months (or maybe sooner)?     

You guys read it right: 1/4 scale. 

Was this posted before?? Apologies if so, then its a refresher.  

Edit: Posted earlier by valkaddict, 

They can take there sweet time in sending it out for all I care. Doom possibly to ship in the New Year and also with the other delayed stuff? 

Hmm... I'm leaning more towards Rosario in white more.

The previous release has more of the European Knight suit vibe (arm and shin guards) with in dark contrast and this newer version has the Japanese Samurai Feudal era vibe (which is brighter and simplistic). The newer version has the likeness of Rosario's face more lifelike.  

Take your risk: Hard to find 1/48 Stealth Yammie VF-1j with SSP for 25k yen.

(Opened/package severely damaged/There is a risk of Damage to the joints and base condition deteriorated due to ageing.)

Someone's going to get the Q-Rau eventually (I have both M&M versions from years ago.)
