Got to check with Kawamori to see if it really transformable. Can't see it in any other form in the anime.

Here ya go, there is a better color image of the Sv-154 battroid somewhere but I couldn't find it for some reason.

Oops I found it!

Build Divers is off to a fun start so far!

Yup figures we get a Pixie and it's going to be P-Bandai More pics here.

If Fexthobby make it in 1/60 they can count me in, I've got a VF-1A I'd love to put some Thunder Hammer armor on  

If this is successful maybe we can finally get some 1/60 VF-11 Protect Armor going. 

Oh man an AC3 remake would be great, it would even tie in with AC7 since we are seeing some early forms of the tech in AC3 in some of the trailers. Unfortunately I don't think there is much demand for a remake, it didn't even sell well in Japan if I remember correctly.

Good deal if you're into multiplayer (and if there's a decent, active community).  If you're into singleplayer, though, I still wouldn't recommend it.  I picked it up when it first came out, and I honestly regret it.  I probably only played for an hour.  The game felt pretty barebones; lots of MS to pick, but nothing to do with them except VS other players or VS CPU.

But hey, the next Gundam Breaker is coming out in the States, I hear.

Yup pretty much this, Versus is a barebones game and there isn't much to do in singleplayer. Even if you were getting into it for multiplayer I'd still steer you clear since now it's almost all veteran players so it wouldn't be too fun for a beginner to get constantly stomped. 

I tried Breaker 3 and found it kinda boring, I do like repetitive button mashers like Dynasty Warriors but Breaker just never clicked with me (the customization was fun though). Maybe the new game will be better.

So with me not willing to venture back to the VF27 and 25/9 releases [especially with those loose joints. damn pity as I love the 27] this is a contender for the next mecha to get.

Only macross figures I have atm are two Yamato VF19 [which I adore], the black VF31 and a mass production VF31 coming in. I might grab Arad's VF31 as a last VF31.

With these in mind, try to talk me into or out of this mecha. It's discounted frequently so I need good reasons for not indulging. For reference, I have handled or owned at one point pretty much all Yamato and Bandai valks and am one of the few people that genuinely enjoys MP Megatron V2.0's transformation. 

Well do you like the Sv-262 design? If so I'd say to go for it on that point alone since this seems to be the only DX version we are going to get. It's a crazy transformation for sure, probably one of my favorite Kawamori designs up there with the Sv-51.

      Can someone shed more light to this (specifically, how can I watch this series if it's planned to be available in CONUS?)        https://www.facebook.com/Yamato2199/?hc_ref=ARSx8tT3AwIcJHX7ineifKyMXwij92B6Z1q5QIM0BTlr9fVlyXAAaFxf-zDdTgYyKOU&fref=nf   

I dunno much about how funimation does things but it will probably show up here https://www.funimation.com/shows/star-blazers/

More footage of Jurassic World Evolution, from what I've seen it takes a lot of influence from JP Operation Genesis so it should be a fun Dinosaur park builder game.

Yeah the 0083 Rebellion manga added a few new GP01 designs. As for GM Cannon II, it's a dedicated Guncannon design though I would assume it shares parts with the GM Custom for easy repairs like the original GM Cannon with the GM.

If it gets us the Chobham Armor then I'm in!

It looks like the art it is based off of, preorder cancelled!  I'm with Jenius on this one, it's probably the lighting used in the photo booth that makes the visor detail look so pronounced. I'd prefer a clear visor but I like the techno detail look too.

Got my 31A from Loopaza today, only bought one and ordered it Tuesday night. I gotta say for the price I paid on shipping the box it came in was terrible and there were no packing peanuts or bubbles inside. Two corners were a little smashed in, the toy was okay though so I'm not too annoyed.

Swery is back (again) trying to get some money for his game with Kickstarter this time. Last time he used Fig to try and get over a million dollars for his game, this time he has reduced the amount to a bit more manageable $647,910. Apparently he has some more development partners to fill in the rest. Still looks like a fun game and I'll probably throw some money towards it, hopefully he reaches his goal this time

I'm not a fan of the Black Sarena design but when they eventually release the Aestivalis separate I'll probably pick one up.

What hits me hardest is that the modeler replaced those godawful gorilla paws with decent-sized hands. (They look to be... 1/100 hands, maybe B-Club resin VF-25/27 hands. EDIT: Yep, from WIP pics it's B-Club, either 1/100 Deathscythe Hell EW hands or 1/72 VF-25G/VF-27Beta hands specifically.) Are the DX's hands roughly the same size as these relative to the rest of the body, or are they larger?

The DX's articulated hands are about the same size but the fixed posed hands are a good bit larger.

Articulated

Fixed Pose

Hmm my guess would probably be around 84/85 so it could sell with the series, thanks I'll keep an eye out for one!

Does anybody else have an order from Loopaza just hanging out in Pre-shipment not doing a damn thing?  It's been like this for three days.

Tracking on mine has been on "Acceptance" for the past 2 days.

 

Mine switched over to acceptance last night as well, it'll probably ship out Monday so no worries.

This whole thread boiled down into a simple clip.

Did anyone ever make a toy or a model of the APC? Maybe someone should call up Sentinel and get them on it!

1/144 Woundwort officially announced..... WOOOOOO! I'm disappointed that it's a P-bandai though, wonder how many of the upgrade parts they will end up making. I'm hoping we get at least the Psycho Gundam and Gabthley parts! More pictures here!

Hah that is super silly looking without a gun, I hope they edit out all the guns in the movie and make them into something else so no one gets offended!

Don't panic there isn't a new anime season confirmed yet, just wanted to give a little update on the manga. If you are an old fan that lost patience with the series long ago now might be a good time to catch back up with the manga, things are actually happening in the story! Of course there is rumor that Berserk is going back on hiatus but the latest chapter is probably worth it

Kiwami 2, Western release in August.

https://www.polygon.com/platform/amp/2018/3/17/17134560/yakuza-kiwami-2-launch-date-west-ps4

I can't believe Kiwami 2 is being released so quickly after 6, man what a time to be a Yakuza fan. I wonder if it is too much to hope that the Fist of the North Star game gets localized for Christmas.

I agree with everything you've said.  The only problem I see is that it was a P-Bandai exclusive.  I don't know, have they ever re-issued a P-Bandai exclusive before? 

I know they reissue P-Bandai Gundam models every now and then, but those are a whole lot easier to produce and ship out than a painted and assembled toy.
