Nin-Nin still showing "Soon Available".

You would think that Bandai would figure out that they could sell a bit more for a bit more profit.

My credit card screwed me with Hobby Genki last night.  They declined my purchase. Suspected fraudulent charge they said. 

AmiAmi is up!

CDJapan sold out almost instantly! 

Time to check you website logins and payment info for all you favorite shopping sites!  PO madness coming up! 

While that are quite a few reasons why one's pants may display that way (like say, padded riding undergarments), I think the larger issue is that it kinda makes you want to find out. I do like the fase sculpt, I'm not sure if this is supposed to be a more mature version of her. Her proportions may be a bit off maybe?

For some reason I was thinking magnets to hold either position, but that could scratch up your pain job. I am also no engineer. I loved building models when I was young, but was never able to stick with it or go all the way with paint.

I'm just glad you all take the time to document your progress to share with the rest of us. I can't wait to see what it looks like once you are satisfied with it.

So... I wonder what's going on with that Ride Armor in the corner there... 

Gerwalk is special. It is the mode you use to catch people (usually women for whatever reason) falling in the sky.  The best thing is that there is a mode for everyone to enjoy. Unless you are one of those who wants to be able to display in all modes. Then you have some unique challenges.

I do like the TV series a bit more than the movies. It could be argued that because of Alto's background, he and Sheryl relate at a level that Ranka is only beginning to understand. She this, cannot complete like Sheryl.

I'm in for a Booby Duck. I'm still hoping for a Movie Roy and GBP reissue. Maybe one day... 

HCM is still my nostalgia king!  But if they can sell me a VF-1 for $60, HCM will go into the closet for next to forever!  ..... maybe. Probably never going to happen at that price. Wait and see I guess.

That was probably such a big in joke at the animation studio. There was probably a reason why we never saw it out of fighter mode in the show. That or I totally blanked it out of my memory.

There are five lights.

As the VF-0 isn't that much bigger than the VF-1, it makes me wonder if we might see a HMR VF-1 Renewal of sorts.

Yeah, that show just wasn't for me either. I don't think I made it past the 2nd episode before I dropped it.

Nikuman where?

I pretty much got the same treatment as Dr. Momma Cat on the same item from NY. Part of me hopes that it is held at Japan Post and I might get it one day. But I'm not holding my breath. 

As shipping costs are approaching crazy, the total cost might end up pretty close depending on exchange rates and shipping costs on one year's time. We'll find out when we find out.

My favorite will always be the USS Elkins, because of just how hilariously blatant this particular kitbash is.

Yes, they straight up slapped a Voyager saucer on top of an F-14 fuselage and glued on TMP nacelles mounted to Runabout pylons.  

And topics get locked that way too! 

Just wanted to remind everyone that kit bashing existing and older designs in to a "new" model is a time honered tradition in other franchises.

G-Reco was all kinds of weird! I honestly don't remember if I made it past the 3rd episode before I dropped it. I totally remember that toilet scene. It is burned into my brain forever.

So as I have gotten older, availability of bathrooms have become more of a concern to me. So 10 minutes at full thrust feels adequate to me. Which leads me to "how do you go to the bathroom in that thing?" 🚽
