reason why I too consider it a 60 dollars toy:
1. It's not line accurate, not even by a mile, looks weird on all tree modes, we don't even know how poseable it is...it's ugly
2. It's expensive, 170+shipping and no super packs, attachements? stands? doubt it
3. It lacks serious engineering, huge compromises were made and we don't know why
4. At least if they could give a sane reason why they made those compromises, all we heard was 'we intended to make it chunky' WTF, who the hells like fat thing, I see girl intending to be fat, but I don't what them, why do I want a fat toy and pay for it?
5. they made two models that look better and in smaller scale...
6. they got the frontier franchise for who knows how long, no other toy company will compete with them, look at Macross 7, they are NOT improving the toy availability for Macross
Only thing that looks promising for it is that it MAY be sturdy and not explode like the Yamato's, but for 170+, I want beauty and durability, same goes for Yamato, I want a 150+ toy, not a model...
