    Gotta be a real good market for KO minifigs now; especially of ones exclusive to sets.
  2. Radioguy
    Are we certain these aren't just stock that arrived in rough shape so far? 😉
  3. Radioguy
    OOS now, though. As you said.

    Thumbnails, yes. To be fair, even if posted as a thumbnail, the software is set to allow hosting of images. Personally, I'd sooner turn that off and force folks to host elsewhere then to impose size-restrictions in posts. Most board size restriction policies are carry overs on old boards where the mods are accommodating older members who have older PCs or phones and would deal with long load times. Paying for more space to a host seems something you'd want to address first. Yes, the downside is that older image posts from years would be killed if applied retroactively, but it should be able to be set from now going forward to stop the bleed. Just an opinion, of course.

    Well, I'd like to have seen it...

    I am so sorry @pengbuzz. Words cannot express what you are going through, I know. I want to echo this. This is a time to reach out to those you know, and let them in. No one should have to deal with this on their own. I'm sure she would want you to be with others right now. Don't worry about us, we'll be here. Again, I am so sorry for your loss.

    I presume like the Regults, this will be self-standing, but I love the look of this in flight. Has anyone aside from @jenius found a stand option? I wish there were a bracket or cradle that would allow a Yeti/Archi to work with these.
  8. Radioguy
    F**k yeah!

    Said it before, and will again: Trek, like Dr Who, and DUNE, doesn't have staying power in Lego, and I don't think it has to be to be a success. I think the DUNE Ornithopter was known to be a potential one-off, hence it having the full cast of minifigs whether they rode or even appeared in a scene with a Ornithopter. The 1701-D had more reason to include the whole TNG cast, but I think the core reason was the same - include them now because we may never do more. I REALLY wish that had been true of the TARDIS console room, but that had been in the IDEAS line instead of ICONS, to its disservice, and might explain that. A shame, though. I'd have loved an official multi-Dr set.

    1/55's revisited

    Wish I could find a dollar store today that somehow just found a box of those in the back. Stuff of dreams...

    Good God, yes. Even non-canon weird Joon-like colors like sofubi would be great too. Seeing 3P go hard on TF seekers to that point always hurts to see through Macross fan lenses. I feel like Valkyrie Factory/Fugu could take advantage of the situation easily. They recently did KOs of a post-SDFM model fast pack set (forgetting which atm, but was stunned by it), and I think they are responsible for the recent KO Yamato glow sticker sheets, and the SDF-1 scaled valks and destroids too released in time for the Arcadia SDF-1 reissue. If they are, they would likely release the CF and Angel Bird they proto'd if there's some serious uptick in the SDFM fandom (live action film?) at least. For DX, though...well, SH MonsterArts, Figuarts, and their Godzilla/Ultraman vinyl releases have long been KO'd. It's not as if Bandai is that powerful. Never a deal-killer to me. To have one fully articulated version of a character at any scale trumps scaling it to a preexisting contemporary character release. It's great when it is made with pairing in mind, but I'd sooner take a great IRL realization of a character versus none at all.

    Same. I also saw that deal and didn't bite.
  13. Radioguy
    Ah, another sofubi guy. Man after my own heart. I asked because I wondered if it was someone who outbid me on Whatnot not long ago for the same. Sometimes it's a small world.
  14. Radioguy
    Which store? If you don't mind my asking..
  15. Radioguy
    They knew about the clamshell issue affecting a whole batch (at least), and still didn't deal with it but for a case by case basis. The bastards even asked me to file a claim with Bandai Japan KNOWING that wouldn't be considered. In the end they forced me to buy something else to include with for them to send the replacement. You know full well I wouldn't have bought the Hikaru reissue from them vs elsewhere, but I HAD to choose them on that one to end this. Done deal with them, and Anime-Express for similar shenanigans.

    I went through hell getting Luna Park to make it right, and will never forget it.
  17. Radioguy
    C'mon, even a hater would look twice if they actually did that . 😉
  18. Radioguy
    Good point. Indefensible, if true.
  19. Radioguy
    Maybe they didn't want to offend those in the south? 🤔😄

    1/55's revisited

    Radioguy replied to kanata67's topic in Toys

    Reminds me of the legs on the Revell IMAI kit box art. 😆
  21. Radioguy
    Damn. I'm envious (and came SO close to getting the same done on my DX's). Well, my avatar (at the moment) is Kremzeek from The Transformers G1 cartoon, and my name is just a carry over (along with Kremzeek) from the TFW2005 forums. I toyed with something unique, but I've interacted with some fans across both boards with the same name, so decided on the same.
  22. Radioguy
    Ever consider smuggling? 😄
  23. Radioguy
    All you need are those scaled destroids and valks now.
  24. Radioguy
    Err...was getting RDJ in Tropic Thunder vibes myself.
  25. Radioguy
    I've had good luck with Bandai warranties stateside when I've had need of them.
