It would.

If Yamato can't/won't make it but another company wanted to and did, I'd back them up. If Toynami made it and it was good I'd buy it.

Pretty. The only price I'd pay would be around the price of the original GBP armor. I want the Thunder Hummer fan armor more though.

I love that song!

Bout frakking time. I ain't paying scalper prices for the GX-06. Though I'll have to get the trainers since I want the command vehicle too.....

Or Canada. I'm entered.

I definitely love the gimmicks in it.....but.... I know I would probably never get around to building it. My HGUC Dendrobium is still sitting pretty in its box all these years....I'll never sell it though. NEVER.

If you're not situated in the US and want the R0 box just call or email Kinokuniya NY and they'll happily sell you one. They're shipping me mine on Monday. Joy o joy.

Nope, IN Canada. I know what I'm talking about. Look at where I'm from. Diamond released SOC Dancougar for less then $200cdn here and I got Gunbuster and the YF-19 for $220usd shipped/ea from Japan.

Where ever you're buying your toys you're getting shafted nice and deep. GX34 and YF-19 should only be about $220ea and Dancougars' is only $200cdn.

Jesus...it's longer then the Dendrobium?!

R2 is the 2004 Japanese release of the Gunbuster DVD Boxset. No subs. R0 is the exact same release as the above minus the R2 settings. R1 has changes to music. Not sure about cuts haven't opened my set yet. R1 is the only one with english subs.

You buy in bulk. Not many of us want to buy that many of the same toy in multiples to get that lowered price. Take a look at all the sellers who sell single valks. eBay's got plenty at the $130 mark. Many of the retail sellers that advert in the sellers section sell at $130. In fact going to check their prices at their websites they range from $120 to $140 depending on where in the world they're located before shipping. Whoops found a new high. $180 from a highly regarded online toy store.

I'm done with pre-ordering Yamato's. As I've said I hate the oversized boxes. For $200 the YF-19 shouldn't have required any of the "fixes" that I had to do to get the shoulders, landing gear, and gun to sit right. Plus the toy is light on accessories. 1 gunpod and spare canards? WTH do I want with spare canards? I don't customize so I don't need those pieces. Fast Packs should've been included considering the price. 1/48's at ~$130? The price has gone up since it was first released and it's at, what the 10th version released now where the only colour change is a stripe? The price should be lowered or not increased at all since R&D is over and done with ages ago. Even if they did hire a custom painter to come up with new color schemes like the stealth and low vis2 the hiring cost of that painter is not going to add up to the cost of a R&D team. SV-51? I like it but I don't like it enough to drop down over $200. My price limit for toys is $200. If it's over $200 it better be the size of the transformer Fortress Maximus or it better be something that can make and serve me toasted bread in the morning.

No idea. BUT more info from Nyko marketing:

Hmm....seems like the R0 is now flying off the shelves since people are not wanting the edited version. Anybody able to help me get one of these R0 sets? I'm still unable to order online because of Kinokuniya's messed up online ordering form. Reply here.

Apparently Nyko's making one. I'm waiting for it for Guitar Hero. http://kotaku.com/gaming/nyko/ps3-charging...ming-226995.php

Sweet! Moonbase One! Something for Unicron to snack on!

Er...yuck. Only one I've liked so far is Blackout. Don't like everyone else. I may get prime simply because he's prime but first thing I'm going to do is get rid of the FUG head. Ultimate Bumblebee = repaint into Wheeljack.

Think Diamond is selling Ideon for about $200. Since I've got no attachment to it(never watched the cartoon)....maybe. Okay that just pissed me off. Bandai's making Ideon bigger then Dancougar but they couldn't make Gunbuster bigger? Anime stats: Ideon = 150 meters GB = 200 meters Dancougar = 25 meters

Haha! Applegeeks Lite 104

I think Shane Anderson over at TFW sums up Classic Jetfire quite nicely. Hate the splitting gun so I'll probably just drill a hole in the middle and mount it there in plane mode. Just like a valkyrie. What it needs are mid bicep and mid thigh swivel joints. Beyond that, I like it.

Jag car-mode looks sexy.

For me it's worth it. 1) it's R0. I don't have to worry about dealing with region settings on my computers, PS3 or dvd player. 2) Eps.1 audio isn't messed up. 3) It will include the matte episode 6 scene. 4) Gunbuster is one of my anime Holy Grails. Plus I'm still getting the R1 version this February. Not going to screw over my local supplier. Tried ordering through Kinokuniya's website, they include Canada as one of their shipping destination but the Zip Code field only takes 5 characters. Canada uses a 6 code system(Postal Code) so it won't let me order it through there hence why I need a US based member to buy it for me.

Ok, this is just screwed up. Can anyone who's near a kinokuniya bookstore drop by and pick up one of the R0 versions for me? It'll have to be shipped up to Canada.
