I didn't know there were PO versions. I unboxed my Focker. I transformed it back to back with an Arcadia. The KO is certainly not the Arcadia, but it's pretty darn good. Absolutely worth the $$$$$.

With a STRONG assist from @tekering I finally got this sucker to home plate. Now to paint up another set of SSP's and finish of the non cannon double trifecta! -
I've seen this done but never wanted to myself until now. How do you do the hidden comment thing? I'm going to feel like a moron when you tell me. I'm probably looking right at it.

I think this is the universe telling me that I don't need this. Thanks! -

Hachette Collection 1/24 VF-1S (subscription collectable)
sqidd replied to CF18's topic in Model kits
Thank you. I think I'm kinda screwed on this thing. HLJ is showing order stop on everything that hasn't been released yet. Doesn't look like there is any way for me to start a subscription at this point. And I'm not betting $2000 that I can find all 100's releases in the secondary market. I could end up with $4000 in the darn thing......with no pilot. I'm going to pretend it's for the best. -

By any chance know what edition that was? Since it's 1/24 is it a sfae bet that it's twice as big as a 1/48? I have to find somewhere to put it. Thanks! -
That's the one that got raided? Looks like they're still up on ShowZ. It's interesting that they're still selling them. You would think there is a potential charge in it for ShowZ selling those units.

While poking around eBay I ran across this KO POS. The Focker Army demands all recruits! So I bought it for way, way, way, way too much money. It's a massive POS. I'd say it's about 1/60 scale. I have christened it the "Junky Monkey"! -

HLJ sitting on them for the duration is key. One more - Are they released weekly? What;s the deal on getting the pilot figure at this stage? Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo SSP's! I'll go looking, but you guys probably know off of the top of your heads....wow long is it and what is the wingspan? Last hurdle is how to display it. Thanks guys! -
I hope I'm not talking out of school here. I talked with Tom about a week ago. Between supplier supply issues due to COVID (Which I'm having huge problems with too) and that Tom got transferred to a better position at work that requires more of his time he shut the shop down. He plans on opening back up. Things have to get easier on his end before he can though. Timeline unknown.

Dunno. My guess is another TV and DYRL release. I don't really care. The only thing I'm interested in now is maybe the GBP. The Arcadia 1/60 is SO GOOD I'm not looking to replace it though. Deciding factor for me would probably be that I want all 1/48's. That may not be enough though. My interest would perk up at a SDFM M&M VF-1J's with Supers. But again, I already have three of each and they look good enough. Dropping approx $3000 to replace them seems rather silly. Sadly I may be done with DX's after the Roy release.

[Netflix] Transformers: War For Cybertron Trilogy: Siege
sqidd replied to Old_Nash's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I liked the show. It's a stand alone for me. I haven't seen a TF cartoon since I was a kid and I walked out of the first Bayformers movie and never even started another. But, Prime came off as a bit of a dufus to me. Very one dimensional and not a powerful leader. Megatron on the other hand was really quite good. I came away from this more a Megatron fan than I thought I was. -
One thing that I REALLY appreciated was that the show while having your standard current SJW talking points installed in the story, they weren't shoved down your throat. I'm about the most truly socially liberal person you will ever meet. Translation, I'm accepting of anyone no matter where they land on the "spectrum" as long as they're not trampling some else's rights. I'm not just socially liberal about the current "popular" groups. Anyway, even being very socially liberal I can't stand when someone is trying to shove their message down my throat. I've stopped watching a lot of entertainment when I get that feeling. This show incorporated all the current popular "messages" while making it feel organic. I was getting REALLY steamed during the diner scene. Which is exactly what the story was supposed to make me do. A lot of entertainment seems incapable of pulling that off. Instead you feel like someone is trying to turn you into a sock puppet. Which is really annoying.

Yes, hours and hours at Tower for me too! From what I have seen they went up, then after the Roy PO went down for a very short window and now they're creeping up again. $300 and up + shipping is what I'm seeing.

Welp, that got me off the fence. Thanks!

I concur 99% of the way. The only difference is I think they're a tie. Both with their outstanding qualities. Yes!

sqidd replied to CF18's topic in Model kits
I'm considering getting into this monster (wish it had SSP's though). Can you guys answer these questions for me? -Does it require any painting? I can assemble with the best of them. Paint, not so much. -100 issues correct? -$18ish/ issue for a total of $1800ish? -How many issues have been released so far? -Can I still pre-order non released issues through HLJ? -Will HLJ sit on them until I want them shipped? Thanks guys!!!! -
That's not much more than EMS.

The new 0D PF is SOLID. Not the heft of a DX, but it's solid, tight and locks together really well. It's top notch.
