  1. I wonder if this is some kind expansion or evolution to the 30 minute mission gunpla line. Seems like a lot of elements are re-used like Lego and just painted over to look like the mecha of choice. Looks interesting and fun.
  2. This is depressing.. Hopefully the demand for this thing is so high that they consider another production run like they do with a lot of their TWE items.
  3. Glad you got a good one! We're one for three here. If I can't get that Metal Structure Sazabi I might just buy this as a consolation prize.
  4. That was an April Fool's joke. A pretty good one at that but as the poster above me stated, Feb 29 isn't a real day and not a leap year.
  5. The MS Nu was offered by Bluefin and there was availability on toy dojo and bbts. I was able to acquire one at bbts and one was available for several months at toy dojo at a mark up after initial sale. However, the funnels were tws exclusives.
  6. Make sure you open and and see if all the parts go together. I bought this a few years ago and one of the main cannons was broken and I couldn't even put the thing together because nothing fit right. - Right cannon broken out of box - left arm wouldn't peg in - right leg wouldn't peg in so statue wouldn't light up. I'm tempted to try again but I'm very nervous about it. My experience here:
  7. I also compared the weight of the Bandai DX and Voltron in case anyone was interested. Voltron: 5 lbs 0.4oz Voltes V: 3 lbs 4.2oz Combattler: 3 lbs 9.8oz
  8. Just got my Blitzway Voltron! So far, I haven't seen any QC issues on mine. No breaks or cracks. Hope others have the same experience!
  9. @carlsylar already has his and I’m 99% sure he has pics ready to post. He’s just not allowed to post anything until after July 30th.
  10. On the other hand I have mixed feelings about who's bringing this to market. I loathe Toynami, am indifferent about Harmony Gold, but MoShow kicks ass. It will be interesting how this plays out.
  11. I like the modern take. It's also larger at 9.5-10inches tall. I'm in if the quality is good and is more durable than Sentinel's.
  12. I've ordered metal builds from them in the past. It usually takes a little over a month after JP release for US retailers to receive their items, however, that was Pre-COVID when items arrived and shipped from our ports in a timely manner.
  13. I found this on BigBadToyStore that could work as a substitute for those of us who didn't manage to snag a pilot figure exclusive. I think the car is the main attraction but I'm in for the pilot figure. It's 1/24 scale too. There's also a Rick Hunter edition as well. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/210588
  14. I think the Metal Build line was specifically and intentionally designed for @carlsylar personal enjoyment. His images and over the top load outs are always awesome.
  15. I find it oddly ironic/hilarious that for macross we have super specific fast/super/armor packs for our VF-31s while the metal build Strike/Astray line continue to get new backpack/accessories. I have one Aile Strike as well as Red/Blue/Black/White Astrays that already came with a backpack but we have like 10 different accessories now that we can mix and match in addition to the already provided accessories. Is this really what the metal build infinity was meant to be?
  16. Lol yeah, that sucker just wants to be posed. I had a hard time making him just stand up straight because there's so many points of articulation just in it's feet! Anywho, posing takes up SO much space and I need to fit like 2-3 more figures on that shelf still. I also have no imagination so I just use the same standard pose over and over again. I wish there was a thread on people just posing their toys in epic/unique ways that I could copy. Thanks
