  1. Oh, I absolutely agree with you. I can't stand Resurrection. I have grown more tolerant of Alien3 over the years, but I still don't feel the "need" to watch it. (I have almost forgiven the Colonial Marines game for "righting" something which I always felt was a grievous writing mistake.) Alien: Isolation was truly amazing for the suspense which it created.
  2. I will admit that I have not yet seen this, and now I don't plan to. After reading every single spoiler for this movie (as told by those who have already seen it), my interest in seeing it has been reduced to zero. (Which is a shame, because I am a die-hard Alien and Aliens fan.) I am really turned off by inconsistencies in the lore, if that makes sense.

    Hmmm... I wonder if the YF-30 head would fit on the VF-31F?

    Wow. The preorder for the FAST packs was a helluva lot easier than the VF-31F itself. I'm all set for my Delta purchases now. (Well... maybe when I see the SV-262Ba, I might change my mind.)
  5. Iranian homemade "stealth fighter?" I know there has been a significant amount of skepticism over this... "project," so I'm curious now if anyone has any new insight. I don't believe for one second that this thing is flightworthy.

    Speaking of "odd" heads, I wonder if anyone may consider doing recasting for some swaps...? I would still not mind considering an S head for the VF-31F.

    YESSSSSSSS!!! Thank you SO much for the heads up on this! I finally managed to get a preorder!
  8. Well, I'm a whore. I went and bought a Master Grade Ingram Special kit with the shoulder lamps. It's unbelievable to me how much the Yamato version sells for these days. Holy cow.
  9. I would lose my crap if I saw that going down the highway... I actively am praying (aloud, mind you) that Headgear does a full series of the Patlabor Reboot. I can't count the number of times I have watched the short.

    Thanks for the heads up! Now to continue to search for a VF-31F.
  11. As a completely random and probably futile hope, I wonder if there is any chance whatsoever that Sega might consider porting Phantasy Star Online 2 to the Switch...? Seems like it might fill a nice little niche for the system.

    I just happened to randomly wake up before 5:00am and check this thread... and I missed it again. Ugh. I still appreciate people giving notification.
  13. I wish they'd do a VF-5000 from Dynamite 7...

    I have this sinking feeling that even though the Kairos doesn't just call out to me, I'll try to get one anyway. The Chronos looks superior in every conceivable way, to my eye. It's too bad that we likely won't see a reissued Chronos with the same engineering improvements featured in the Siegfried.

    I just want a not-insanely-priced preorder on a VF-31F... I still have yet to get in a single one anywhere.

    I am absolutely fine with paying in full up front for a pre-order so long as I have some confidence that I will receive what I ordered. Knock on wood, but I've not been burned in this way by any sizable retailer yet.
  17. I kinda fell behind after seeing the first few episodes of season 3 (toddlers will do that to you), so when I saw TIE Defenders in this trailer, I squealed like a little girl. I am not at all ashamed of this.

    Still want only Messer's. And with a recast (or part swap) of a VF-31S head. Because I make no sense sometimes.
  19. I completely loved the Wolf Predator... but I hated pretty much everything else about that movie.
  20. I finally just watched the 10-minute special yesterday, and it was BRILLIANT. I cannot put into words just how much I would enjoy seeing a full-fledged movie or series of this.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    The only one I care to get is Messer's. Any expectations on when preorders for it will open?
  22. Axelay

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Y'know... just a crazy thought, but I would totally get down with Messer's VF-31F with an S head swapped and paint matched onto it.
  23. I haven't commented on a single episode until now, but man, am I disappointed. This whole series was just a humongous "meh." Am I wrong in being sick and tired of the recycling of so many of the plot elements of so many previous Macross series? For God's sakes, give us something new. I despise that as time goes forward, so many Macross characters are becoming younger and younger and have less experience in their designated roles. Isamu was a talented and reckless hotshot *military* pilot. How are we expected to believe that a little kid like Hayate has any piloting experience or sense of aerial tactics whatsoever? This character has no appeal to me in any capacity. Shin started out as a pilot before learning how to fly a Valkyrie. Who in the hell knows how Basara learned to fly, but I have no problem in believing that he's got more talent than Hayate - even if he's using one of the goofiest control schemes imaginable. I'm almost saddened to think now that for as much as I disliked this series on the whole, I'm *still* going to end up buying Messer's VF-31F... and I already know that I like the YF-30 infinitely more than the VF-31. It really frustrates me how I feel like the first episode of the series might have had some (hidden) potential to become interesting, but the whole thing completely flamed out early. This series was hands down my least favorite of all of the Macross series.
