    Post of the PO. Runner up. I'm grateful I nabbed one from HLJ. My insomnia was not in vain. To those still in the wilderness: good hunting.

    Huh. Got order confirmation email from HLJ, but she's not in my private warehouse or in open orders. Am I good, I wonder?

    Got her from HLJ! Splendid!

    Yep. Hope to see y'all in a few!
  5. Some more Mirage I found. Hey, never enough of Delta's best elf girl!

    They usually do, but NY also marches to the beat of their own drummer as far as when they actually put up the PO. Can anyone remember when the PO for Ihlefeld's and Keith's VFs went up?

    Seeing as they can see the real thing, it might be closer than you think.

    Makina is included? Wonder if the stand will be reinforced to accommodate the extra weight of her figure.
  9. And the complex composite skin for the prototypes was laid by hand and, on the second prototype, didn't cure properly. No, Boeing & Co. righteously shot themselves in the foot with the X-32. In my opinion what really harmed the 35 was all the stuff they dreamed up for it after the fact, which is partially why it has all the bulges it has. If it had been allowed to stay a stealthy version of the F-16, as was kinda talked about back in the day, it would probably have had a far smoother gestation.
  10. That'd be good, great even. Hope it happens.
  11. Dave Filoni gave an interview about Season 3 a few days ago. He said that Ezra has finally gained enough experience and maturity to not talk about everything. He knows Obi-Wan was there, possibly he's protecting something, and Ezra has the understanding that if he talks about it he'll endanger that. He already did so once, bringing Maul there. As for the duel, Filoni said that for every parry that Maul managed to perform, it would have shown that Maul was Obi-Wan's equal, and he's not. It was short because Ben is frankly that good and has progressed much further than Maul has, who is constantly consumed by his need for revenge. Finally, as for Thrawn, Filoni said there's a balance he needs to strike between Thrawn being the almost unbeatable strategist the fans want and canon portrays, and the fact that the Rebel characters need to survive and fight another day. Filoni has said that if he had time and scope, he'd show Thrawn victorious over other Rebel fleets and cells, because he is indeed successfully prosecuting the fight elsewhere. Books and comics will probably show that. Let's see... Bendu might not be gone permanently. Filoni loved working with the R1 team to get Chopper and the Ghost in there. No word on a retelling of R1 just yet. It's certain that Kanan and Ezra will split a while before the events of Episode IV, since the interviewer was clever to bring up the point that if it was any other way, there's no way the people at Yavin wouldn't have met Luke and said "Hey! There's a couple Jedi here you should meet!" Really good interview, worth Googling.
  12. D Brand Skins did try, but their adhesive took off the matte finish paint and tampo printing during testing. Nintendo makes a Zelda themed skin, no idea if that reacts to the Switch's paint or not. Be careful.

    Damn. That's 4 days before I get paid. Do you think places like NY and HLJ will require payment up front for this?
  14. As for the 51, most likely Nora's will be next. I'd love for Arcadia to reissue the Elintseeker, even in a "premium finish".

    The more of you that cancel your 31C POs, the easier I'll have it when I order mine.
  16. XL needs 2 engines.
  17. Then they might try to go with the other license they seem to still have, Macross Plus. They might have 7's license yet as well, since they kicked out that Sound Booster not too awfully long ago.
  18. The Garland is a new mold. That took up those resources. Destroids have traditionally sold poorly, so I agree with Jenius that the Cheyenne is unlikely to be done. The Ghost MUST be redone since the old one doesn't really fit the rejigged Zeroes, so that'll be high on Arcadia's priority list. Recolors of the new 51 are almost guaranteed in the future as well if Ivanov's sells at all well.

    It's Bandai. Anything's possible. I'm in for this one. Missed Hayate's for lack of interest, missed Messer's because the PO windows have been tiny, but I'll break my CF rule for Mirage. Hopefully her PO won't be awful. Is it confirmed that her PO is in April?
  20. I'm kinda fortunate. I want Mirage's 31-yet to be announced, the Sv-262Ba-yet to be announced, and the new Sv-51. So far, only one thing for me this year.
  21. Some parts of the Switch make me think it was designed to a budget, and the cart port and the carts themselves were done so. Doesn't bother me at all; Nintendo has never been at the forefront of speed or power, not since the SNES and it's Mode 7 hardware scaling and then, Starfox with its VX chipset built in. That's the last time I can remember Nintendo being excited about silicon. Ever since, Big N has been ga-ga over experiences and methods of gameplay... not always to its benefit.
  22. Let's hear it for ejection seats!
  23. Heh. Bond car, Shmond car, Duke Togo looks perfect in that shot.
