    They're clearly trying to tap the nastalgia market but homaging the visual style of the original 1980's figure line: As for the KC Minmei, she kind of looks like a KO figma, and I don't mean that in a bad way.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    anime52k8 replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    The 31F has the best head design of any macross mecha to date IMO, I love everything about it.

    yeah, some are spot on to 1/1/44 others can be way off: scale tends to very from show to show. like all the wing suits scale together well, but they you get stuff like this: 22meter unicorn (RD) vs 19meter strike (strike) vs 18meter 00 Quanta (1/144 HG)

    Metal Robot is a sub line of Robot damashii so it's the same size as RD figures but they have metal joints and more paint/tampo printing. technically RDs are non-scale but they're somewhere between 1/144 and 1/125 scale. more like between 1/155 and 1/135 TBH.

    I've yet to actually be impressed by any kit From Kotobukiya.

    I feel like if I found one of those in a comic shop and they were willing to take $200~$250 for it, I would buy it.

    Thanks! I didn't realize the MoShow version was so much bigger than the other two. The Bandai version probebly looks the most "right" but I think I'm liking the MoShow version more. what's the right price to pay for the moshow one? there's one on ebay for under 100 which seems suspiciously cheap.

    ugh. I should just go to sleep now so I can make it tuesday sooner.

    I got a shipping confirmation email for my wing gundam... 4 days after it got into North America. for some reason 3 of those days were spent just sitting around in oakland doing nothing. Thanks FedEx.
  10. anime52k8
    thanks.
  11. anime52k8
    Does anyone have side by side pics of the two 3rd party 00 quanta's with the official bandai version?
  12. anime52k8
    Fedex still says Tuesday even though it's been in the bay area since Friday afternoon. Pics look so good, I'm starting to wish I got two so I could have one permanently in neo-bird mode.

    looks cool, but I'd much rather rather have a hummingbird 2.0. Anyways, I never got a shipping confirmation email from p-bandai us but when I checked their site today there was a fedex tracking number. Apparently it's already in the continental US and has a Tuesday delivery date. Robot Damashii did all 5 original TV suits + wing zero, Deathscythe hell and altron, plus an upgrade set to turn heavyarms and sandrock into their kai versions. they also did all three tallgeese; epyon; mercurius and vayeate; 4 different leo variants; and aries of all things. I really doubt they'll do more wing Metal composites, but I'd love it if they did. although DS hell heavyarms are my favorite suit designs, I think the thing I want most in GFFMC form is this: Altron Gundam Glory of Losers ver.

    These two are up for preorder. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-037454&page=top http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-037455&page=top

    one more post and it's not Wonderfest related. I'm trying to decide if I should get this: http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=LTD-FIG-09813 I mean, it's kind of expensive and I've already expressed my dislike for Lechery and their parent company Kaitendo; but it's still really interesting. I think it's the fact that quality Futa figures from (relatively) mainstream companies are a new and novel thing so every time one comes out it grabs my attention.

    (part4) and finally, the obligatory Native post. As per usual, Native brought a bunch of new art and showed progress on figures that weren't even announced all that long ago, while continuing to make zero movement on figure's I've been wanting forever. Some of the new art looked promising, and in terms of sculpts they had their NekoPara set which is looking pretty cute (and inevitably expensive) and their Schoolgirl/hooker/studio model(?) girl by Saitom is looking good in color. Also at the native booth where products from their sub-brands BINDing and Rocket boy. I still have no idea what the deal with rocket boy actually is but it's looking like BINDings reason to exist is to make bunny girls and 1/4 scale stuff that's too smutty for FREEing. As far as actual figures the most interesting new things from BINDing where their own giant NekoPara figures, as well art for a cat BOY figure which I'm willing to admit I'm interested in. Rocket boy meanwhile is kind of all over the place, I'm starting to think they're deal is just figures based on art too polarizing for Native proper. They did have a pair of Annette-san and Liliana-san figures that actually look good in grey, although I'm expecting the inevitable hyper glossy paint job to kill my interest in them. Also they announced another Ban Futa figure, and I think it's the best looking art for one yet.

    (part3) And like a vengeful, smutty figure purveying god, Skytube descends from the heavens to smite everybody's wallets. frankly there was too much stuff to go through. We've even hit a point of saturation where I couldn't be bothered to save pics of Misaki Kurehito figures. That said two of my most wanted Kurehito figures are painted and look absolutely gorgeous and I'm super excited to go broke buying them. and of course, the most exciting new sculpt is a web exclusive but she's super cute and has a big butt (and I guess is Navy themed? ). Also, an art announcement of a BAN figure that (obstensively) isn't a dickgirl. )

    (part2) Meanwhile in Ship girl land, the peaceful rise of China Azur Lane has officially begun. No movement on plum's Hammann Kai yet (which is sad because she's the cutest little Cat girl loli ever), But Alter just announced there own ship Loli in the form of Vampire who is both Adorable, from a really good company, and theoretically in scale with the amazing Amakuni KanColle figures (I still love you so much Mutsu ). And in an interesting turn of events, the first company to get a sculpt out is... Kotobukiya, with Akagi? frankly I like the KanColle version better. Going back to OG KanColle, we've got some good news and some bad news. The bad news is Amakuni still hasn't announced a Nagato to go with their Mutsu . The good news is that Alpha Max is doing a Half Damaged Saratoga to go with their Iowa! on Amakuni's end, instead of a Nagato they're doing a Christmas version of Suzuya which does sound pretty cute, and from GSC we're getting an adorable Waifu Shopping mode Haruna. Perhaps the oddest thing is FREEings B-style Shimakaze, which is just a regular shimakaze in 1/4.

    So another wonderfest has come and gone, maybe I'm just getting picky in old age but there felt like less stuff to be excited about this time around. here's some of my highlights. First up, Seven Sins part 2: The Seven Heavenly Virtues is coming along nicely. Sculpts are out for Sariel and Uriel, but more importantly Raphael is painted and oh my god is she darling. I think I might like her more than Michael and I want to like Michael more than anything in the world.

  21. anime52k8

  22. anime52k8

    Macross figures

    100% a 1/20th scale pilot to go with their 1/20th scale VF-1.
  24. anime52k8
    I think the correct answer is nobody cares.

    I just want to know how he's still alive with a metal bar impaled through his spine.
