Hikuro

I placed an order lastnight when I got home....course when they ask for a card verification number.....I guessed on mine.....the numbers are too far rubbed off to really tell. And I haven't even had the card a year....... I blame anime. But I told them, "card verification is aguess, the numbers are too far rubbed off so I'm not sure, any problems please contact me." So there should be no reason why the purchase is canceled that is what I'm worried about is being canceled. I attempted to buy Kareoke Fire from Macross 7, 55 bucks too 0_o .....ugh, and they canceled my order cause the card couldn't be varified.....jerk offs....never buying from that group again. ANYWAYS! *huggles himself since freedom not there*

Sword Calamity!

That movie just BOMBED, why dear god did they even make what was it.....Final Dominion or was it Final Dimension........wait wait wait...... WHY DID THEY EVEN MAKE THE SECOND MOVIE?! It was done, over, finished, AUDIOSED!! Why did they even make a stupid series from a B actor name like Adrian Paul who I remember when I was a little kid playing the role of some character in the short lived TV series, "War of the Worlds" which was groooosssssss...... The last 2 movies just sucked I didn't like them unless it had the nudity. But the final one, END GAME, it was like watching a boring 2 hour made for TV movie....and was it REALLY nessessary for them to kill off Lambert's Character? Conor was the best, Duncan was a pussy, and Quintin......well....you only saw him in that lame cartoon show. But yeah, that movie sucked and I got off topic. If Paul W.S. butthole *cough* does end up pushing the release date back, I might be dissapointed, but not surprised. Would you rather see something crap/assed or half crap/assed ? I'll admit, I take this movie with a grain of salt on being "WOW!" but I will give it a shot, I had my doubts on T3 and wasn't too dissapointed. Hmmmm......I remember the rumors of Aliens5, but it's just that.....rumors. I doubt to see that movie or even another Predator movie since it just doesn't have much success anymore. Face it, Aliens got boring after 3, Ressurection was a joke, to much CG and what if's. Predator was excellent when it first came out, but the second was just.....heh. It had no arnold and danny glover is too cop sterotyped now.

¬_¬ but wasn't Shoji Kawamori-san the one who designed the mobile suits with Katoki-san? Ooooorr do you mean that piece of art work of the GP-01 is Katoki-san? I wont disagree that the mobile suits are in the most part ugly as sin and should be beaten or shreded....but it's not our call. And it's like I said in the AVP thread, you can dog it all you want, but save the true judgement after WATCHING some of the new series. I can't see really Bandai "forcing crap" down our throats...theres a supply and demand like any other merchandise...if they think people are going to buy it, they make it, if people buy it, they make more...if it doesn't sell...they either don't produce as many or call it "Limited Editioned" A series can't be continued without some sort of a fanbasis, if the show utterly sucks and gets low raitings like say Sailor Moons live action drama, THAN I would see your point. Bandai would be just milking the BaCOW....... *cough* pardon the pun. But I'm going to agree with what Graham had said about Macross 7, you can't create more to go with a series without there being SOME sort of a fan basis, SOMETHING is drawing viewers to SEED that we might not be picking up on either due to our western culture, or something else.

¬_¬ work again......what I meant to say was he's one of the main characters in the ASTRAY storyline......blah...... Oh.....thinking about it, hmmmmmm if I can find a Raw of the two ASTRAY's I think I'll make a dub.

Well, it's like Graham said about Macross 7 when people said it wasn't a very popular show, a not so popular show can't produce 49 episodes, a crap load of sound tracks, a 4 episode OVA series, 2 specials, and 1 movie if it weren't popular. Seed has produced 50 episodes, 2 TV specials 1 OVA, 2 side stories OVA's, 2 manga series, over half a dozen soundtracks, a long line of model and plastic figure toys, and a tv sequal airing less than 60 days from now.....you can't call something like that a "Hit or miss". Friend of mine was showing me a picture, and it was a semi truck with the trailer being something TV screen like I think, and it had Gundam SEED advertised on it......now that's cool.

yeah blah I start typing up what I wanna say than I get a phone call from another dealer wanting me to check a number and than I start typing and when I hit enter to check the number "Not in database" I look and I forgot to turn my caps baack on than I gotta remember the number again which makes those guys po'ed lol. Than when I finish I get back here and I can't remember what I was going to say cause I might have only typed up like part of what I wanted.......god I hate that. ANYWAYS the Red frame special, it was sorta funny, but I expected Lowe to be more Vash-esque than anything else. But he was pulled off nicely as an anime counterpart. However, Kisato had a design change, her hair is much longer, more mature looking, not only that but she isn't as worrie-some as her manga counterpart! I liked that about her cause everyone else was calm and collective.....(okay maybe not lowe) except for her! I loved that and they took it away. T.M. Revolution however, they seem to be a big hit for SEED which has shocked me, I haven't really even heard anything from them since Kenshin, but to have the first opening on SEED, their main singer as part of the second opening, first opening for the new series, and than for ASTRAY MSV, that's nice. However, like I said about animation, I personally enjoy the manga better, if they were smart they would have just picked something from one of those stories, like Red Frame versus Gold Frame in space....something like that. As for the Blue Frame special, it seemed to focus more on Sword Calamity which was a scary mobile suit. And the Gai didn't have many lines as he was the main character in the ASTRAY storyline....and Blue Frame just didn't get alot of air time.....it was sad....but his voice was spot on what I thought it could be...which was nice. That's my take on ASTRAY MSV for now......they better make more or a seperate OVA series that's like based on the manga and not something off the top of their heads.

Sorry was preoccupied with work when typing that lol what I meant to say was Decals not details oopsie! But no they don't look like typical mobile suits with the skimpy armor plating, they look more "organic looking" And yes I know about the detail I do own the Red frame but it didn't eat my gundam pen like others say, I work my panel lines at a certain way to make them thin and easy to apply without going over the line and onto the armor pieces.

Theres a site that has a 15 second commercial spot which featured a tad bit of TM Revolutions Opening theme, and you see a small picture of Impulse with the schnieders. I also noticed something from a site, its pictures of Athrun, Cagalli, Kira and Lacus in wedding outfits? what......the.....hell....?

Not surprised the blue frame didn't get much of anything, it just doesn't look like a mobile suit, red or blue frame, to get much of any detail, can't even see that for the M-1's. But my 2 OVA's should be finished when I get home.....hmmmm judging on what I think of the OVA's........maybe I'll dub them like I did with Valley of the Stars tv special.

Totally unrelated, but it reminds me of when they were doing Highlander2 and they were going over production costs so the sponsors and insurance companies came in, canned the project, edited it to how they saw fit and people cried how horrible the movie was....than wha nearly 10 years later they got their hands on it and reworked it just a tad to make it a bit better. Funny if that would happen to AVP?

That sorta has me worried if theyhave been advertising the movie for some time, and its not even set...

Hikuro is off running people down with his company vehcile if you'd like to leave a message, please wait till you hear the heart pearsing scream of torment from Freedom Gundam sending it's Multi Layer wings flyin at someone's rear...... ....................................................kaboom? I'll go and let them know or something that I WONT THAT AND I WILL SPILL NEEDLESS BLOOD AND PAIN LIKE A RIVER IF I DON'T GET IT! *hides Ninja Gaiden style*

Is it just me or does it look like, ALL of the Gundams here except Impulse have the ability to transform to an option mode?

Maybe if they produced Master Grades, but there really weren't any decals at all for Lowe's Red Frame....like "Lowe Gear" stickers on the shield and shoulder, the usual Eye decal for the Gundam head, and a few red strips to go on the sheath for the sword and that was pretty much it.....not sure how the Blue Frame comes out though.....hopefully a bit better. I'm downloading the OVA's right now, everything from the SEED TV specials to the ASTRAY OVA's....should be all done when Iget home.

Already, thought I could play the game again too but I can't but hey I did get the SFX file!

Are they like saying, "Transform your religion from a mere shell to something gigantic and destructful!"? Or.....come to church and enjoy our raffle of a busted up missing pistons G1 Optimus Prime?

............. DOH......

Wow 0_o uh, 138 bucks for the conversion kit, but they do have them in stock, n/m I can't pay that much at this time........ : /

........wait-a-minute.......you mean Gaia is a Bocow?

man I want a Hi Nu version I'd custom paint it and make it look REALLY nice.....crap

Sadly I can't scratch build, never done it, don't have the stuff to do it nor the time. I thought I saw HLJ have it up for sale...but I could be wrong like I thought I would get Freedom off Jhobby.net but they're on preorder...... But I don't think the kit was too pricey. And from what I just heard the recast was pretty bad.

That was below the belt

Uh huh so I see......well now if I can find B-Clubs Resin conversion kit for Nu Gundam I may just buy it, but stupid HLJ wont do the search, it just keeps acting up on me....grrrr either can't find what I want or the site is down, it's getting annoying!

If I could get on HLJ's site (which seems down?) I'd go than and get one, maybe two for good measure to sell But I was wondering how in the hell can you do a 1/48 without alot of the mechanical stuff, I've never seen a 1/48 NU gundam.....
