The only fighting game im waiting for this year is street fighter IV... old skool gaming at its finest...

Hey guys I just got my first GFF metal composite figure of the RX-78-2 with G-Armor and it looks great! Check it out! Its pretty damn detailed IMO! Heres a close up image of it! Size comparison to a regular GFF! and look its the G-fighter!

So far after seeing the leaked trailer from SDCC I like what I saw... the SFX appear to be pretty good along with the visuals which are accurate... I like that Jeff Bridges still plays a major role in the movie... I just hope that the movie has a deeper and bigger plot than the last one which was still very good IMO.

wrong topic sorry

Unfortunately gundam's popularity as a series dwindled and disappeared by 2003. The only thing that kept it afloat in america was gundam wing really...

I ordered mine from him and it came fast and was in good condition... Everybody has their F ups at times... On ebay I had a bad experience with Tisinc but thats the past... IMO hes a good seller and no longer sells through ebay...

LOL I find it funny how batman plays off the italian mobster sterotype... but its not sursprising either...

no you are quite right... you see phone service and internet is way more expensive in japan than in america... The prices of phone service in japan was originally high in because of WWII and the lack of infastructure available to support telecommunications networks. now japans infastructure is pretty good by todays standards but the phone and internet companies have kept prices high to maintain heavy profits... This is why most ppl in japan don't use hard wired phones and prefer cell phone service because it is much cheaper. This could obviously be another reason why there isn't a huge fansite dedicated to macross, because of the sheer amount of money it would take to have a high speed private server hosted over the internet.

I think there are just too many young boys in here that cant take the difficulty of old school games is all im saying.

It seems like your just bashing gradius because you had a hard time with it and couldn't take the manly difficulty the game had to offer... I have beaten every gradius game except for that obscure 3D arcade version and while some of the games were extremely frustrating... (I.E Gradius II arcade version) I still managed to beat them with a little bit of luck and alot of effort. Salamander blows in comparison... Gradius 5 was just awesome and is the best shooter I have ever played. Shooters are short game that need alot of challenge, they are no fun when you can just plow through them on the first run...

After living in the city all my life even now I feel that I would rather get away from fast paced city life... and yeah the ghetto areas... ugh dont even get me started on that...

Hayden christiansen is a terrible actor IMO... Ha was terrible and unconvincing as darth vader and now this? If you like wooden acting I guess hes right for you though...

Although ive never lived in LA id say living there with a pleasant experience depends on how deep your pockets are really... if you want a nice area by the beach its gonna cost an a$$load of money... Aside from the posh areas and cool anime shops in little tokyo there's not much else that appeals to me there. I guess california in general is overated and the cost of living there outweighs the benefits IMO. But if you have the money more power to ya.

It aint out till november of this year so we have awhile to wait... hopefully its worth it.

I really like the customs armor and the paint job it looks really good and somewhat more realistic than the anime version of the GBP armor... Its too bad there aren't that many conversion kits or customs parts out there for valk toys... Id be all over them.

You can thank the ppl in charge of harmony gold for that... They are blockading anything macross related from being sold or serviced from other companies in the states... american imperialism at its finest...

I dont mean to complain or anything as I havent had one bad yamato product yet but im well aware of yamato's history of defects on their first run products... It seems yamato can't and never will get it right on a new product line... Once is already too much for an expensive a$$ toy. If your paying over 100 dollars on a toy it should work... Im glad im waiting this out for the VF1A

I dont know if HLJ does this anymore but I heard from other members on this board that they also offer replacement parts if you need them for the VF0A they do charge you like 15 dollars though for the parts.

I got my shin combo at tisinc99.com at 169.00 USD before shipping. The one I got has no issues either, all the joints are tight on it too... Highly recommended.

Im gonna wait for the VF-1A to come out as I dont have any valks with a 1A head just head.

This is an older prototype pic... the more recent pics show the crotch at a straighter angle...

Now that I see the toy with the crotch agled it looks like total $hit... It looks like the robot has a dong man lol. I would never buy a toy like that unless I want to be called a happy person for owning it. NE way im glad bandai didnt go with the angled croth peice because thats really gay... IMO

While I like the manga esque look of the origins zaku I have too much gundam plamo as it is so I wont give in... But I dont see why this should be in the bargain bin on hlj... I guess it wasnt that popular of a figure series.

Crap is crap regardless of who produced it...

Sam here ive always liked post apocalyptic stories... I played the original fallout and it was great. I cant wait to see how this game turns out.
