    guess the wait will be a little bit longer for us D lovers...

    MP10 at Tokyo Toy Show - http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/japanese-transformers-40/masterpiece-convoy-20-video-from-international-tokyo-toy-show-172545/ looks light based on the vids...

    godammit Maxfactory! when will Figma Archer come out?!?! i still can't believe Robocop and a handful of those KRs came out first in the meantime, i'll have to do with just his arm (sorry for the crappy pic) a la Nine Lives Blade Works

    yeah, but it seems to me that non-transformable small scale Macross VFs are just doomed to fail, doesn't matter who makes them. even some of the limited edition ones, after initial release, i've seen selling for cheap... and i think the toy companies have noticed this the past couple of years and it makes me sad coz i might never own the RD Armored VF-25S or any other VF (that I can't afford to buy/have in 1/60 scale) in action figure form.

    after reading the so-called "caveman love advice" (for the umpteenth time in a toy thread no less!), I was surprised he was able to even spell the word hypocrite correctly. guess when you hear it so many times you just have to look it up!

    this is the second time i've heard The 5th Element mentioned here in the past couple of days... makes me want to watch it again... Leeloo never fails to get a "rise" out of me as for this movie, based on the reviews, i think i'll wait to watch it for free.

    it's pretty clear that there's no "pilot" in HIS head...

    never really liked it either... don't like green... but one could say it looks great next to the rotf devastator toy i'm still waiting for an Ultra Magnus encore to display with my city commander+classics UM. can't seem to find a reasonably priced re-issue that's not used/loose.

    yeah, i wouldn't mind getting a GN-U M&M VF-22S set... i just can't seem to convince myself to get the 1/60s even at 60% off i just don't have enough display space for them and I still can't get over the battroid proportions of the 1/60 YF-21/VF-22 mold. EDIT - i wonder if Yamato ever toyed with the idea of packaging their 1/60 VFs with their GN-U counterpart... just add, say, ~1500-2000JPY... you'd have a big scale, PT valk and a smaller poseable battroid figure to display together.

    just saw this from TD... clearer pics of MP10 - http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/thread-157146-1-1.html ...10th thread, 10 transformations, 10 times the fun, 10th Masterpiece... still Optimus Prime.

    i heard he used to sell military ordnance and Yamato was looking for something to blow Bandai up...
  12. m0n5t3r
    this is definitely an instance where too much of a good thing makes the toy look bad.
  13. m0n5t3r
    haha... straight to the point. even better - "Graham, I think Yamato should reissue this."

    here's the "pelvic-thrust" discussion from the old VF-27 thread - http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=32802&view=findpost&p=859678 on the DX 25 and 27 you'd have to split the part of the forward fuselage behind the crotch to get it to angle out... this also enables the waist joint. the problem was, the waist joint is so loose to even bother with making the crotch angle out... and you'd have to "cheat" like what Renato did. i was just wondering if they're cheating in that pic too...
  15. m0n5t3r
    i wonder what's behind the left thigh in the 3rd pic that's keeping the crotch sticking out and the underside of the front fuselage angled like that.

    just watched the latest ep. shocked and sad when I got to this part in the book... still made me sad watching it happen on the show i was hoping they'd finish Danaerys' part in the episode ... but that's for next week's episode... can't wait! exactly how i feel.
  17. m0n5t3r
    forgot about that... the May 2010 safe release should be the one with clear canopy and new crotch then.
  18. m0n5t3r
    which VF-1J? the one with the grey-lined visor. any v.2 VF-1?... every release after the VF-1D except for the VT-1 and the VF-1J w/ armor parts that doesn't have the grey visor.
  19. m0n5t3r
    i love the new Super O... too bad about the shoulder hinges though. probably why it didn't sell out as fast as the Elint. speaking of the VF-1D... i'm still wishing Yamato would reissue this with the updated crotch. I would gladly buy another one.
  20. m0n5t3r
    that's exactly what i've been thinking. but you'll never know with Yamato... i got my M&M 1Js 6 mos. after the initial release. it had been sold out in HK but I was lucky enough that there was a limited resupply when I went there last year. i was actually gunning for a pair with damaged boxes selling for HK$750 each, but it was already sold by the time i got there. although i'm glad that i got ones with mint boxes coz they look good side by side -

    anybody else experiencing paint transfer between the metal shoulder hinges and the sides of the head of their 1/60 VF-11B in fighter mode? i don't mind the paint chips on the shoulder hinges but the ones on the orange stripe on the head is not okay. and the tab that's supposed to keep the front fuselage/cockpit section in place when in fighter is slowly crumbling away.
  22. m0n5t3r
    yeah, my bad, only the "soles" are die-cast... same on the VF-27. i'm curious about what the mag says about the rest of the improvements...
  23. m0n5t3r
    articulated hands and VTOL wing boosters are a nice touch. why are the feet color-coded in yellow... not metal anymore?
  24. m0n5t3r
    transformed my SV-51 to battroid for the first time... w/ the YF-19.
  25. m0n5t3r
    i think everyone's wishing for that. my only real complaints about the current 1/60 YF-19 are the gullet and the fit issues in fighter mode. if Yamato does make a 1/60 v.2 YF-19, i hope they go back to the ratcheted ankles... not really liking the metal rod+balljoint that the Kai is sporting. bleah...
