Sad. Can they pay for the license for actual characters?

Special version: http://hk.myblog.yahoo.com/iam-cybergundam/article?mid=22074 Semi-transparent?

Well this is what they have today before I emailed them about the payment notice. Paypal don't even let you complain 45 days after you pay. I think I will stick with HLJ for now.

What's up with these jokers at anime-export.com? They are asking for full payment already although their FAQ say differently.

There is a new Hobby Magazine coming out: http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E6%96%B0%E3%83%BB...1/dp/B001UDT59I "Bandai Plastic Kit Information", only 200 yen. I guess it will be news only, much thinner than the big ones. And on the cover of upcoming vol 1, "MG Gouf 2.0" http://gtoys.blog48.fc2.com/blog-entry-2008.html

I have dreamed about building a LEGO SDF-1 with motorized transformation for a long time - dream because it is hard, and it will be bigger than this 1:2000... To have automated transformation means it has to be attached to a stand. The most difficult part is the shoulders - you get two perpendicular 180deg movement, and the ARMDs need to be angled so that they don't crash into the long shoulder guns.

New Ranka decal, will come with VF-25F at end of march. source Note that it has has some different art works compare to the limited version before: http://anjerasu.wordpress.com/2008/12/07/m...25f-decultured/

RVF-25 review: http://d.hatena.ne.jp/type97/20090307 Where do RVF-25 suppose to hold the gun in fighter mode?

Guess what a lot of them are going back now. Is anyone happy about it? That happens in China too. New labor law already made some move to cheaper places. Sure it is well known that many Chinese worker are underpaied and work in poor condition, but if you really care, why do you continue to promote that anything made in China = crap (which is obviously not true)? It only make it more difficult for anyone in China to demand higher price for what they make. What you wrote before were not open and frank discussion, just finger pointing. And politics discussion have no place in this forum anyway.

They put those nitrogen-rich melamine in so that the raw milk will appear rich in protein and pass the simple test the factories use. How about you try to get your facts straight first?

Do you mean the model? Have you notice ho much part swapping need to do just to put on the super pack, or some of the super pack need to be taken off to transform the model? No they they don't know how to make an accurate VF-25 that is fully playable yet.

Of course I know the news. How can you miss it when every scandal from China get 30 days headline? But have you heard about this or this? And what does that have to do with yellow plastic? What did that have to do with China when it is a well known problem with toys made from anywhere? Is it because of your well publicized prejudice? Go ahead continue to singling out Chinese with "jokes" like this or this or this, yes, we are the source of all the world's problem.

OMG put the lighter valks on the upper shelf, not the heavy stuff. I don't want to hear a "My SDF1 suffered a failure of the anti gravity device, and crushed all my valks" story.

Do you think they may intentionally bend the closed gunpod so that it fit the belly of the fighter mode?

CM will reissue pack #3 in May. http://www.hlj.com/product/CMS65031

Ozma VF-25S with Super pack has been released, with unique Cathy decal: http://www.1999.co.jp/image/10083886t2/60/2

Do you get any Sheryl decal? I am somewhat disappointed that my Super VF-25F from HWjapan don't come with it. At least the other order from from HLJ will.

The content part of this site is in a relatively unmaintained state, until the admin can find time to upgrade to proper CMS. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=26911 http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=28749

http://www.happinetonline.com/NASApp/mnas/...D=4543112568175 May be someone can accurately translate the detail description there.

++ Actually slightly cheaper. Before tax, the price for the DX with Full Armour is 18000 yen, v.s. 18800 yen for VF-11B.

Surely market for toy must have slow down. Most of main category page on HLJ is talking n%off sale.

VF-100 size compare with 1:72 VF-25 and Toynami 1:100 VF-1 http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/thread-88596-1-1.html More pics from others: http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/thread-88556-1-1.html

Fighter mode: http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/thread-88377-1-1.html He say that although there are a lot of pieces, the main difficulty is finding the right spot to apply force to fit the pieces together. The whole thing is hard plastic except the two extra head guns, so he was very careful.
