In sudden, unexpected WTF frustration? Pretty much. You’re basically blasting Regults and Zent’ fighters left and right. And one little turd winds up slowly draining the life outta the Cat’s Eye while you’re otherwise occupied (like a cheap little mosquito).
-
Everything about Bandai’s choices with the bellyplates just drives me nuts. And the joint that connects the hipguard to the leg better be a beast, because I don’t see a tab to lock it into place for Gerwalk.
-
Definitely NOT getting, and I’m one of the biggest fans of the -21. But also, partly due to space limitations and partly due to me absolutely despising the design choices made by Bandai. EDIT: Say what you will about the Yammy’s skinny legs, but she looked clean in all three modes.
-
You would think that snapping a pic of the fighter facing the camera would make the nose/canopy look longer.
-
Add in those Tatooine suns, and it’s murder on your skin. Vader was right to wear a suit that protected all of him from those harmful UV rays!
-
It’s the Cat’s Eye! . . . I’m suddenly having bad flashbacks of trying to defend the Cat’s Eye plane during that RT Battlecry game. 🥴

Staying in a Sarlacc pit can age you pretty badly. 😬

Kinda wish there were more Misa Hayase pinup options:
-
It was probably more of an Easter egg at this point. The trio also show up in one of the key Rebels Season 4 eps, technically as paintings/drawings on a Jedi Temple. They might have even appeared in the temple Ahsoka first got the map ball from, but I’d have to double check that. The Daughter’s stand-in, as the Morai that hangs around Ahsoka, has made some cameos throughout Rebels and in the last ep of Ahsoka too.
-
No external hardpoints on the -21’s wings. The missiles are either loaded in the FAST Packs or in those black diamonds on top of the wing roots.
-
Honestly, I think DYRL Misa looks prettier than TV Misa. I do prefer the TV series for most stuff, but there are bits from DYRL that were pretty damn good too.

Has Bandai ever treated Macross like its SOC line? I’m guessing (2).
-
For everything that could go wrong, the Bandai SOC was actually quite impressive. All the joints are nice and tight, despite being made of 15 parts/vehicles. Two handed sword poses are no problem. Articulation galore. All the vehicles have nice little touches. And it just has a crap-ton of accessories. There are a few design limitations (can’t really rotate the forearms, so that the wheels are facing the torso instead of the back). But it’s one hell of a collector’s piece.
-
It’s been a year and a half since they first revealed the Tread prototype. Hopefully, we see a colored prototype later this year or early next year.
-
Umm, there’s figures trickling out and scheduled for Ahsoka. Of course, there’s still the frustrating discrepancy between the number of releases for the Black Series and for the Vintage Collection. And Hasbro and Disney need to do a better job of coordinating, so that these figures get released around the same time as the shows drop. But this issue’s been there since later season Clone Wars, so 🤦🏻♂️.
-
Huh? Never knew the destroids came with pilots.

Mospeada Combos:
-
There’s been some grumpy chatter online. People complaining about Ahsoka’s portrayal, complaining that Thrawn’s not very smart with his actions, disliking Sabine, etc. Some complaints are valid, but others just seem like dumb whining. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle.
-
Yup, those were them at the end.
-
Would be nice if Sentinel poses the combined Legioss-Tread fighter combo upside down, just to show how solid the connections(?) are. But solid connections to the Legioss; an adequately sized cockpit, that hides nicely in soldier mode; ridiculously solid ratchet joints; and extra weapons/missiles would be awesome improvements to see.
-
It’s 2023. Where is my future machine?!
-
I would guess it’s the grey parts that are below the bike handles in bike mode and become the armor right below the armpit in armor mode. If the manufacturing or assembly of those parts are off, it can cause the parts to crack or shear off from shoddy assembling. There’s two joints in those parts that can break if parts are misassembled, misaligned, or if the parts themselves have excess flash.
-
Sentinel should change up the color on Houquet from hot pink to cherry red. Just saying, it’d probably result in a lot more sales. Also, any word on the Tread?
