Damn, I received your e-mail but I have to wait until I get paid on Friday (14 Oct 05) to send the Paypal payment. I would like to change my order from the vanilla set to the color kit if it's not too much trouble. I am in no big hurry to receive the kit so the delay does not bother me as long as I know you can reserve a kit for me. I will still send the payment on Friday regardless if I end up having to wait for the kit. Thanks for this great offer!
Okay, payment has been sent. The kits look great! I can't wait to receive it.

I'm just waiting for someone to photoshop a rouge VF-1A into the picture and blame it on the UN SPACY.

A vote is being cast to decide if trade sanctions should be applied to Gargamel as we speak... it is the concensus that that should be enough to keep him from bombing any more Smurfs. Just in case Johan and the King have crafted a very stern letter to Gargamel outlining several bullet points of UN code he as violated and delivers a one-two punch of threatening to possibly at some point in the future perhaps maybee think about starting a committee to investigate the ongoing investigation into allegations of Gargamel's intent to possess weapons of smurf destruction (WSD's).
Gargamel's ambasador to the UN, a Mr. Azreal, is quoted as saying "Meeeooooow".

I finally received my Galaxy Force Exillion (limited edition red version) from http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/ and I have to say that it was definitely worth wait. This is the version I had always hoped for ever since I picked up the initial release of the standard version Exillion. The original Hot Rod will always be my favorite from the vintage Transformers, but this repainted Exillion is definitely my favorite from everything released since then.
If you look carefully, you'll notice traded out the clear wings for yellow ones as I think they look much better.
Anyone else pick this figure up or plan to? What are your thoughts on it?

By the way has anyone gotten any thing from toywave.com. And are there any good feedbacks about them before I send payment.
I ordered multiple items from Ken at www.toy-wave.com over the past three years and I will continue to do so. He always comes through with the product and he ships them fast and securely. He usually replies to questions I have within 24 hours. Recently, when my Yamato 1/48 VF-1A mass production type arrived without it's heatshield due to a factory oversight, he removed a heatshield from his own stock to replace mine at no extra cost. His prices are fair and his shipping charges are decent. He is a top-notch seller and has earned my respect and patronage time and time again.
-
Ken wrote me back today and said he was going to exchange the part [from another one] and send me the heatshield since Yamato seems unable or unwilling to provide a replacment. www.toy-wave.com rocks!
eming,
I'm sorry that your VF-1A had quality issues as well. I'm really disappointed in Yamato over this whole situation as it seems like there is always something with every release they've had...you'd think they would have tightened their quality control standards by now.

I guess I'll be leaving it in fighter mode until I can get a replacement (if ever). Save for the missing heatshield, I am pretty happy to finally have my own VF-1A Super Valkyrie mass production type. Here's a pic of vintage and new in one shot:

This is absolutely unacceptable! I finally get my Yamato 1/48 VF-1A brownie from www.toy-wave.com and I was all happy and stuff. As I inspected the quality and began transforming the VF-1A, I noticed, to my utter disbelief, that the factory failed to include the heatshield! That is such total B.S.! God, I am so pissed at Yamato right now.
I e-mailed Ken to see if he could get me a replacment heatshield, but I'm probably SOL. I don't know else to get a heatshield for my VF-1A. Anyway, you may wanna check to see if your VF-1A didn't come up short as well.

I really wish someone would be kind enough to post a pic of the VF-1A with TV FAST packs on...hint, hint...
-
Put me down for one please.
-
My VF-1A should arrive in about a week; man, I can't wait. I bought an extra set of FAST packs (from Hikaru VF-1J) a while back and have been saving them until Yamato finally got around to producing the cannon fodder VF-1A (my personal fave).
If you have the TV FAST packs and the VF-1A, can you please post a couple pics for me?
-
I own both the Gakken 1/35 Lancer VFA-6Z Alpha and the Toynami 1/55 Lancer VFA-6Z Alpha and while I can really appreciate the greater attention to detail and posability the latter provides...the former is without question more durable, easier to transform and much more fun to play with overall.

You have my prayers, buddy. I hope everything is okay and that the storm did not damage your property.

I buy a lot of comics from this site. They have great services and decent prices. iI checked their stock and it looks like they have both of the comics you are looking for.
-
Yeah, I was a little disappointed by that, but I figure it didn't matter much since I was going to get the movie for my PSP. It's really the Cloud figure and his bike that I'm after, but all the rest is just a great bonus and helps justify the cost.
-
Well, I finally ordered the newly released FFVII: AC Sepiroth figure from www.toy-wave.com today. I've been waiting for these figures for a long time evry since I saw the prototypes about 6 months ago.
I know they are getting a US release through Previews, but I alway prefer the Japanese packaging and I don't want to wait until September to get mine.
I also placed a pre-order from www.hlj.com for the expensive LE box set that includes Cloud with his Fenrir bike amoung a multitude of other items.
Anyone else picking up these figures or the box set?
-
I see that you liked my pic of MP Optimus Prime & 1/48 VF-1S Super Valkyrie posed together. I don't mind that you used it as reference for your auction, but it would have been nice for you to give me a heads up.

I just got the Napoleon Dynamite UMD for my PSP and somehow it made me feel a whole lot better about the money I spent on this system...well that and 2.0 firmware's features.

FFVII: AC

Does Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children leave a lot to be explained...yes, it was purposely created that way. This is not directed soley at you, but it seems to me that a lot of people who have viewed the film fail to understand that the Advent Children movie is only one part of a massive compilation project.
FFVIIAC is not the original game simply made into a CGI movie sequel. Since AC's basic storyline was built on the foundation already established by the Final Fantasy VII game, most of the characters and their backgrounds were already well known from before; which is one of the many reasons why character developement in the CGI movie was limited. As for characters like Kadja that were created specifically for the AC series, their backgrounds are/will be explained in other media formats that make up the whole Advent Children compilation. This includes spin-off games (Dirge of Cerebus, Before Crisis, etc.), videos and other media like Last Order: Final Fantasy 7 (OVA) and FFVIIAC Prologue "On the Way to a Smile" (magazine short story). All of these will tie in together to culminate in the FFVII: AC CGI movie which focuses heavily of action sequences. It's kinda like how "The Matrix" trilogy is not meant to be viewed as stand alone movies...they are supported by "The Matrix" video games and "The Animatrix" OVA compilation that build character development; they enabled the movies to introduce new characters with little to no background and focus more screen time on the action (which is what the majority of the target audiences really wanted anyway). View AC in this light, and you will begin to understand why it was scripted the way it was.
If you only watch the FFVIIAC CGI movie and base your judgement soley on it, then you will undoubtedly miss out on a lot. You will find that there is a lot left to be explained. Unfortunately, the original FFVII game and AC CGI movie may be the only parts of the compilation that get released in the US. Just know that playing the original game and watching the movie won't be enough to get the full story.
