  1. Very cool. Looking forward to more news.
  2. ^^ Ah ha! That makes sense. If not done carefully, a separate piece could add more bulk and then change the profile of the 1J. On the flip side a thin piece may lack durability and break, so if Arcadia were to go this route it would have to be done well.
  3. Thanks, no3ljm! There are good buy-it-now prices on that list for those who don't mind BIB items.
  4. I think I need an explanation. Most of the armor/super parts in Macross are derivative fantasy, no?
  5. I would love to see a new removable goggle accessory! I'm not sure what Arcadia has planned, though. I think the display at Wonderfest was a mock up to promote the armor, so I'm still hopeful for a few surprises.
  6. Relaxing in progress. We're cool. It wasn't you, kb. I'm just getting tired of the back and forth over this.
  7. I don't see that. And I think I'm the only one who used 'sour grapes' in a post so far, so I'm not sure if you are calling me out for something that I didn't do... By hook or by crook? Give me a break. People are trying to find fault in coincidence. I ordered one VF-25S from CDJapan and one VF-25S from HLJ to provide to a forum member in need. And that was my intent. End of story. I take offense to the accusation that fellow forum members who bought multiples are doing so on the sly. That is just as damaging to the community as the other scneario: buying stock to sell on Ebay at $400 a piece. But it seems to be growing in strength day by day. The politics and infighting over multiple orders is peculiar and sad. But what the hell do I know? I've noticed that if you act the wrong way or say the wrong thing here you get branded quickly. Heh, I'm used to it.
  8. Ha! We could even have exclusive parts done up in Fire Bomber colors, because Ozma loves the band.
  9. In the last screenshot, the lighting gives the illusion of metal or alloy. I love that effect.
  10. Sooo...Takara is releasing Jetfire: http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/japanese-transformers-40/transformers-legends-japanese-release-of-generations-jetfire-and-sky-byte-180895/
  11. Not a bad price for armor parts. Anything under $200 USD is really good, I think. Hopefully, the frenzy will die down after the VF-25S is released.
  12. I wouldn't go that far---saying that another round would only benefit resellers. Assuming that the lack of checkout limits was a configuration error on the server, then a second round of orders should go smoother because those checkout limits should be in place. I find this turn of events positive. It emphasizes the message that HLJ representatives were sending out earlier, and it shows that they have a plan to get all customers at least one 25S. It is interesting that a few customers are getting to keep up to three, though.
  13. Cool. That makes three options.
  14. Does plamoya have a good reputation? They still have a preorder button up, but the price is at a premium: http://plamoya.com/en/dx-chogokin-yf30-macross-30-chronos-p-97547.html
  15. MAAaan, that would have been a great crossover release for Hasbro to use in the US market. Poo... I can almost hear Peter Cullen reciting the Green Lantern Oath.
  16. But a weathering set would be exclusive because it's weathered. Right? Right? C'mon Bandai, tip the hat to those Yamato exclusives. ...sigh...
  17. Yep. TFSource was tempting with free shipping, but BBTS has been speedy for me and shipping was only $9.
  18. I would love to see more out in the wild too. Maybe next year the Tamashii web shop will consider a weathering release?
  19. WooHoo! My preorder for MP-8X was updated today. Get ready for King Grimlock round two!
  20. Hehe.. Has/Tak certainly knows how to keep the supply coming, and with good variety to boot! So many Primes...
  21. Thanks for repeating the context, skullmilitia.
  22. Ha! A green matrix would be fantastic. For those waiting for another Hasbro MP-10, Transformers World has good news. Another reissue is inbound: http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-masterpiece-47/transformers-asia-reissue-of-hasbro-masterpiece-optimus-prime-180887/
