I'm glad you finally got to watch MZ23 and enjoyed it, don't think I've ever heard someone say they like part 3 the best of all of them though  Part 1 is still my favorite because of the ending. I'll have to give the older parts a re-watch before the new MZ23XI comes out, if the 5 minute trailer thing that was kickstarted is successful in getting a series anyways. 

Oh.....OH! That flight type is almost too perfect, good thing it's P-Bandai so I can curb some of my excitement!

In other P-Bandai news, looks like they are doing a RG Zaku Minelayer. More pictures here.

The first run must have been pretty bad to push it back again, at least they are doing something about it. I'm cool with any delay as long as the Mospeada doesn't fall apart in my hands when I finally get it.

I'm guessing Star Citizen ship? Kinda gives me a Nostromo landing on LV-426 feel. 

Yup the VF-9 is a strange one indeed, the wings aren't variable but instead they wrap around in battroid to form the chest armor. I keep hoping Arcadia will be crazy enough to make a 1/60 but oh well, guess we need another Sv-51.

Any chance the Yukikaze planes were designed by Kawamori? Sorry, I didn't check google first while typing this. But it would be nice to see a similar design based on these birds that transforms into Gerwalk and Battroid. It would probably look awesome for sure.

Looks like he didn't have anything to do with the Yukikaze series from a quick search I did. Maybe we could get the Shinden II he designed for Ace Combat into a Yukikaze crossover some how .

I don't even know....

I'm not crazy enough to buy a full squadron worth but I'd be in for an Aerial Knights Ba (don't really care which one), Mirage Ba and maybe a cannon fodder variant or Elvis custom. Fortunately for my wallet they probably won't make that many  

So any chances they will send out review copies to some Japanese websites or is the Mospeada going to just pop up one day in the wild? 

Unicorn is great fun when the action is happening, that's about it all it has going for it though. F91 has some good ideas but not enough time to work with any of them, it's only a movie so it'll be easy to get through. I'd stay far away from Victory if you are already feeling the fatigue, that series can be such a slog to get through at times.

I'd say to try out an AU series like G Gundam if you are up for something a little strange. Reconguista is also a fun time and has some great mech designs, though it does end abruptly. 

So when is the next big toy expo so we can hopefully see the armored parts prototypes?

Got my confirmation email, woo! Thanks everyone for the help finding the links so soon, I hope everybody that didn't get one in the first wave gets one from NY or the eventual restocks over the next few days. I'm going to bed!

Got mine at HLJ, now I just gotta wait for the confirmation email and I'm off to bed!

I don't even know why I'm up for this after selling all my 31's but then noooo, stupid armored 31-s movie screenshots...... 

Haha I think we are all in the same boat, stupid sexy full armor.

From what I've been reading it seems like AC7 will only have VR support for the PS4. X1 and PC are apparently being ignored though I wouldn't doubt there will be a workaround on PC soon after it's release.

EDIT: Actually, the best part might be that he does the same thing to Chlore's command ship, and she has a much more appropriate reaction to someone Kool-Aid Man-ing through her bulkhead to blast rock music at her.

Hah yeah that's what I meant about doing it better later, that moment always puts a smile on my face.

Ok, I only got thru the recapture of the Island ship.. when did this ^ happen and where can I find a decent version to watch this insanity.

Episode 26, spoilers obviously. He does a better version later on in the series though 

Bump for a great seller! 

That's neat, they are simplifying the led stuff they used in the PG Unicorn and Exia for MG. Seems they are also working on fitting it in RG models as well, they showed off a lit up Unicorn not too long ago.

My idea is not aimed at nostalgia. The MP line is already made, now make a major movie to sell more of it. Just like Diaclone already existed, but the cartoon sold them to a bigger audience. Make a good movie and base it in the 80s. They can get the right cars in the right colors, and sell as many toys as they can. They just need to write a clever story with good plot, and properly use the character's gimmick of disguising in plain view.

See now that's the problem, they need to actually do that and not screw it up for the 6th or 7th time depending how poorly the Bumblebee movie goes. As for reusing the 80's designs I could see that happening for a 20 minute prologue in the movie but there's no way they would turn down easy money from car companies by not using the modern counterparts.

Here's a question that I don't remember being asked, is there info on the costs to build and maintain a VF and its armaments? Considering the VF-1 is still around with private owners well into the 2050's it can't be too expensive, though I would assume they built so many that junkyard parts are still plentiful.

So if I stick dual Gatling guns on anything you'd buy it?

Hah the more rotary cannons the better, though dual wielded is just the right amount of crazy.

I'll be here for the pre order madness too, I wouldn't even be interested in the VF-31S if it wasn't for the over the top Stampeed-esque armor. Guess I'm just a sucker for dual gatling guns 

I just finished watching House of Five Leaves, I got into it cause I stumbled on its interesting style and figured 12 episodes isn't too long. Pretty good series, I'd recommend it if you are into good characters and can take a slow place.

Yeah it's kinda strange they left that so open considering they already have the fix for that on the MB F-91 with a hose that covers that gap.
