    I was going to sit this one out for a while as well, but it took me six years to find the Switch 1 on store shelves back in the day, so I figured I'd do myself a favor and get the console now. I managed to get a PO in with Best Buy on a whim. I did break a cardinal rule of mine, which is to never buy a system without a must-have game to go along with it. Is it silly to say that I'm hoping, waiting for a Starfox game? I'd buy a console just to play the next Starfox game. What games are you getting on launch day? Mario Kart is a given, and I love that series too, but once you've played a Mario Kart game you've pretty much played all of them. SIGH...

  4. Today

    Initially, I wrote that I watched more of Classic Stars today. But that didn't feel right. I subjected myself to more of Classic Stars today... because this series is so inscruitable and is so bad with exposition that watching it is like wrestling with an octopus in a completely lightless room. You're never quite certain what the hell is going on or why, and the whole proceeding feels more than subtly wrong.

    Hi I am looking for the model kit manuals for the series lineup of VFG Macross Delta model kit! I ABSOLUTELY adore the 2 color pages of Ranka Lee! And want to collect all of them to make a collage poster: https://imgur.com/a/nmPszof anyone have the rest?

    Just received this at work, so only had time to glance through it. Seems to be an awesome book though.

    I'm jealous. I ordered two (in the same order) within milliseconds of the preorder option going live. I'm wondering now if ordering more than one somehow puts you at the tail end of the queue.

    Honestly I'll just wait to get it for WWM release if I really want it. If anything it'll prolly get sold for a nice discount on Amazon 6months or so after release
  14. mikeszekely
    Dang, that's fast! Mine was originally saying it should arrive Saturday, but last I checked FedEx is now saying Tuesday.
  15. Big s
    Definitely. These kits seem to sell fairly well

    Is there enough interest in a SDFM Super Valkyrie in either Fighter or Battroid modes?

    With Genevieve playing this role across multiple productions over 20 years, I'm definitely going to defer to her take on the character.

    Cool, something to look forward to. I thought they were done with this series, but I'm glad I was wrong.

    I suspected it was for the fighter engine length reason. But for the amount of morphing proportions, It seemed to trivial a reason to make a weird fix for... and they could have did an extension with some hidden panel magic like they did with the YF. I guess it was easier to just copy precedence of every toy having a black hold there at this point lol I have a feeling the neck cover can be gotten away with on the 19S, with the bundle of head lasers as distraction, and their turret base matching and breaking up part of the cliff. It seems like the misalligned fuselage issue is still kind of there. The piece that holds the canards, with the vent slits. On my YF, its totally buckled up over the piece behind it. I could press it in, but then the belly panel under the cockpit would then shoot out. Through careful squeezing balancing of tensions, it can be hidden for some time until anything gets bumped, I'm seeing that same two panels slightly stepped up here as well, although to a much smaller degree.

    At this point they need to change the title to Love, Death,Robots and Kitties

    The only toy I have that could do it was the revoltech version
  27. Big s
    They do have dyrl seated pilots, but oddly I thought they’d include Hikaru standing with this one as well. Maybe they figured the 1/20 minimum version was good enough, but I would have liked the in scale figure

    Basically the same, very light on the included accessories. Ignoring the Hyper Mega Launcher for a moment, they could have maybe added some effect parts, optional heads (different design, Zaku) or maybe an alternate diorama base like they did with the X3 Crossbone – Psycho Gundam comes to mind here. I'm okay with how the Zeta looks, but in a similar direction I'm sort of missing that extra "wow" feature/gimmick. I think the problem here is that I'm not seeing the whole transformation thing as the big feature, because it's kind of integral standard stuff to me for doing Zeta Gundam. It would of been nice if Bandai had done something extra with Wing/Tail binder, like a different configuration for example.

    She's supposed to be way more than just a figurehead, though... she's described as being one of the key founders of the Rebel Alliance and the commander-in-chief of the rebel forces during the war. 🤷‍♂️ Someone who commands respect and actual authority. The more I watch and read, the more it feels like Disney is walking back every positive aspect the character had piece by piece. She just feels unnecessary in Andor. Like she's only there because it's a story about the early rebellion and they felt they had to include her somehow because she's meant to be one of the rebellion's bigshots later on. Her segments of the story don't really connect to the rest of it in any meaningful way thus far. You could delete most of her scenes and there'd be no real impact to the plot. As beautifully composed as this whole wedding thing is, it's completely unnecessary to Cassian's story. Now that is an assessment I can agree with. That and Tony Gilroy's remarks about how she's really a well-meaning person at heart, but just doesn't realize or can't accept that she's fighting for a lost cause trying to fix the system from within because Palpatine et. al. do not care about the norms and mechanisms of the Republic's democratic system that she holds sacred.
