    I got an email from HobbyLink Japan earlier this week stating that there could be a flat rate $80 minimum fee for packages going to the United States depending on the country of origin. I have no clue how this is going to work as the buyer normally pays the tariffs. I hope we don't get stuck paying tariffs fees twice for items.

    Since we are comparing minimalist shipping... Hobby Genki by way of FedEx: Marginally better? There was a dent on the upper right corner of the shipping box, but it didn't transfer to the retail box. Amazon.jp has great prices, but their cardboard shipping boxes were thin the last 2 times I used them. Combined with DHL shipping, I received damaged retail boxes both times. Perhaps I was just unlucky.

    Just got my preparation for shipping from Hobby Genki. Apparently I picked FedEx shipping. i should probably double check that.

    Regardless of how we all feel about HG, its good to see Sentinel getting more sales.

    I ordered from Hobby Genki. I have not received any shipping notifications yet. So far, I haven't has any issues with them yet. Seems to be still available... https://hobby-genki.com/en/sentinel/43039-riobot-armored-genesis-climber-mospeada-148-ab-01h-tread-4571335880835.html I do not know what the final shipping costs will be with everything going on. I guess we will all find out when we find out.

    I wonder if this is related to the new "de minimis shipping" rules. You can skip to 5:30 mark. I don't know how this is going to effect future purchases from Japan.

    I've fallen behind. Finally started watching Frieren. I basically agree with everyone: last season was pretty meh overall. Now its sequel season!

    I would have had a better opinion of that show if that had been the 1st episode. I pretty much agree with everyone's opinion about it. I'm still likely to drop that show. right now it gets another week of viewing.

    I stumbled upon this on AmiAmi. Rather unexpected. Release: June 2025. 15,090 yen. HI-METAL R VF-2SS Valkyrie II+SAP (Silvie Gena Custom) -Lovers Again- "The Super Dimension Fortress Macross II: Lovers Again"(Pre-order)

    So my question would be: If that size drawing was done after the show's production, what did the animators actually use for size reference during production? Was it just the story boards?
  15. DewPoint
    What happened to this being "Japan Only"? If they are saying Robotech, then shouldn't this be available everywhere?
  16. DewPoint
    The only one I've seen so far was from Nin-Nin-Game, but it went to "Soon Available". So not sure if they will do another round.
  17. DewPoint
    I'm quite curious about this myself. Its not like most of the websites that are selling it are reselling the Sentinel exclusive version.

    I ordered the Tread from Hobby Genki. FedEx shipping 6790 yen. By boat was 4000 yen (about 3 months). EMS was the most expensive at over 10,000 yen.
  19. DewPoint
    Hobby Genki ¥43,890.00 RIOBOT Armored Genesis Climber MOSPEADA 1/48 AB-01H Tread I'm not sure yet if I'm going to buy now or wait a bit.

    there is a store link on the very bottom.

    I expect shipping to be brutal on this one. At least the exchange rate helps.
  22. DewPoint
    I'm in for one. I haven't bought anything in months. I'm also running short on room....

    When I need to polish plastic lenses at work, we use NOVUS Plastic Polish. You can polish by hand or use one of those automotive headlight style buffers.

    So I started watching Kaiju No.8 recently. I'm liking it so far. We'll see how it goes.

    Not a problem! It's anime! You know how it is. You don't have to like everything everyone else likes. I certainly don't. But there is most likely something for everyone! Spicy Wolf is on my "Maybe I'll watch it later" list. I'm mostly watching sequels this season. I'm not too sure if I'll pick up any new titles to watch.
