    Why wouldn't it be? Most of the Disney+ Star Wars originals have Protagonist Titles (e.g. Ahsoka, Obi-Wan Kenobi), and this series is about Cassian Andor's personal journey from his ordinary life as a disenfranchised Imperial citizen living on the fringes of Ferrix society to the jaded revolutionary he is when Jyn Erso encounters him in Rogue One. It's not an ensemble cast series like Rebels or Resistance, or an anthology series like the Tales of titles, so Andor makes the most sense as a title. The rest of the cast are all people who are, for one reason or another, caught up in the events of Cassian's life and are forever changed by them. Whether that's his neighbors from Ferrix (Bix, Brasso, Salman), the corpo-cops who tried and failed to arrest him (Karn and Mosk), the ISB agent who jumps to the right conclusion from wrong evidence she found of his thefts from a naval supply warehouse, the rebel spymaster planning to recruit him for the cause, or the failing politician secretly funding the rebellion who gains much needed breathing room because of a heist he pulls off. Calling it something like Cassian Andor and the Plot-Irrelevant Space W.A.S.P.s might be a bit on-the-nose, but too evocative of Harry Potter. I guess they could go the LN route and call it That Time I Tried to Go On The Run After Committing Double Homicide in Self-Defense, Got Rescued by a Rebel Leader, Falsely Imprisoned, and Become a Revolutionary Guerilla: My New Stressful Life Burning the Empire Down! or something to that effect. Borrowing from the original version of Maarva's speech and calling it F*** the Empire: a Star Wars Story might be a bit too much, and probably sets a very different expectation.

    I'm hoping to get one of those posters. They are very cool looking. From people I know who went, they were saying that the event went very well.
  6. Papa Rat
    Very cool. What was the inspiration?

    I prefer SDFM Supers over DYRL Strikes... Really want a pair of Max/Miria Supers in 1/72 since Hasegawa never bothered.

    I guess “Imperial Scum and the People Organizing Their Downfall” is too long of a title. And “Everything Connects Back to Luthen” is a little too on the nose.

    Should Andor be called "Andor"?

    Tariffs? What tariffs? we only have sales tax on items coming from Japan no STUPID tariffs! 🤣
  14. BrokenValk started following Bandai VF-1J DX Chogokin VF-1J Ichijo Hikaru Store Limited Edition VS the old one
  15. BrokenValk
    Hello there, I'm looking for a Bandai DX Chogokin 1/48 VF-1J Ichijo Hikaru. Is there any difference between the Bandai VF-1J DX Chogokin VF-1J Ichijo Hikaru Store Limited Edition launched last November at Tamashii Store in Tokyo and the old one? Which one should I choose? (if there are some differences) Thank you so much and have a nice day, Stefano

    @electric indigo Your changes to the legs DO look better! @nightmareB4macross SLIGHTLY! That's an understatement! Is that an old Yammie that you've shotgunned!? Nice work! I hope you felt batter after cutting out all that plastic!😁 - MT
  17. Papa Rat
    Wait, what the? What’s up with all the cut out sections?
  18. nightmareB4macross
    I think you might be right about that.😆

    Just a few pics for comparison. Please note: VF in the forefront has been slightly modified. 🤭

    fwiw, The Bandai DX VF-19 Kai has the same release-date as the Arcadia 1/3000 SDF-1 reissue. If Arcadia doesn't delay its product, that is. As such, try to plan accordingly (including tariffs and stuff) ...

    "How nice for you" is another of those great Luthen lines.
  24. treatment
    Nope. Tariffs or not. Don;t really see anything nice in the design nor any worthwhile extras to justify the very steep pricing. Bandai gonna Bandai...

    I have not seen M7 and don't need this release, but I'm surprised there isn't more complaining about the price. This thing is priced at what I would normally pay for a YF-19 from Amazon Canada. Which is usually around $100 Canadian more than the Japanese retail price. So I expect when it is sold here in Canada it will be $100 more than this price which is getting close to what they charged for the expensive YF-21 here. It is nice to see that it is still available at AE and other sites. But I'm wondering if that's because of the price. Edit: Just checked and the DX YF-19 reissue was 24,000 Yen before tax compared to this one at 30,000 Yen before tax. Now I'm afraid of what they will charge for any new DX VF-1 figures coming out. I also think the neck cover on this one in jet mode looks really bad, Not sure what they were thinking there.

    I'm just using BBTS, the overseas Japanese sites are too much a crap-show at this point. Everything sells out in seconds, the sites run like crap immediately, pass, I'd rather use BBTS anyway, Pile of Loot is great.

    Completely forgot about this preorder. Still available at HLJ so I picked one up. This is the way preordering should be.
