  1. Arcee does have wings on the show at least. I'm down for foc shocky.
  2. Finally scored RID, cliffy, soundwave, and wheeljack. Trying to get an employee from target to pull it out the back was like trying to get into the FBI's secret files... Still would rather have FE Cliffy, but oh well.
  3. Sorta good news posted at tfw about the first editions. Hasbro may release them later.
  4. Ugh, found a target with the deluxes but manager gave me street date runaround!
  5. Got them in so-cal. Rowland heights target. Had to ask for them using dcpi numbers. Only one new case for that Sunday morning. No deluxes. :-( I think target isn't supposed to put them out yet, but I know the scalpers run rampant around here. TRU in Rowland had one prime rid bb. *edit: There's no "grey". If you mean the abysmal brown? rust? color, yes, it's textured too. Arm can pop off the shoulder from ball joint, but a pin as the elbow joint connects the bicep to the forearm. There are screws holding the white plastic on the forearm that's around the translucent purple.
  6. At work atm, but will let you know as soon as I get back home. Which will be 10 hrs from this post. Maybe someone else can answer beforehand. Haven't had the chance to inspect the rest of the fig's textures.
  7. I had to give in despite being angry at the TFP FE cancellation. Did some repaint to TFP RID OP. (i refuse to call them powerwhatevers) Sorry for the crappy pics. Only had phone on me... Started with the silver on Meg's chest, but you can see the color comparison and texture detail on the plastic.
  8. Welcome to MW Skyfire, Don't buy from ebay unless you're fully aware of the version and the going price for valks. Check the buy, sell, trade here for valks already released http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showforum=9 Get used to preordering: http://www.amiami.com/ my "go to" for new releases http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/ my old "go to" http://www.hlj.com/ keep an eye on the threads for hlj sales http://www.anime-export.com/ gotta pay upfront if your comfy with that. I've used all of the above so those are the only ones I can recommend.
  9. Been looking at the FE voyager op vs powerizer (lol) op and it's a completely different mold (more inaccurate), not just recolored plastic. I was going to settle for it and paint it since the cancellation news, but forget it... a total pass and total F' up Hasbro!!
  10. I agree. I wanted 1st ed. op and bulkhead and they were never released in CA. I MIGHT cave too. The RID versions look lame. Megs is too white and op has weird colors.
  11. amiami request inbound *from Graham's pics, they greys look pretty contrasting to me.
  12. Haven't heard from amiami yet and they're usually first.
  13. Went to franks n sons last weekend. If you're looking for TFP arcee and starscream, in or around that city, that's where they all went...I hope nobody buys them! It's gonna be battle for bulkhead for sure when it gets released here. Not too worried about finding op.
  14. if you live in so. cal. tisinc has a booth at frank and sons. you'll find them because they have the largest selection of valks for sale and are all overpriced.
  15. Got tfp arcee while exchanging my ss. Gotta say ss and arcee are really nice. Too bad more don't come per case. Looking forward to the rest of the line.
  16. Still hunting for arcee, but have ss, and bb. Bees bottom legs could have been designed better and the shoulders could use some locking to keep them in place. Good thing tho it has a swivel waste for better poses. The rubbery part on ss head is bent do to whoever packed it. Actually his head wasn't even on the ball joint. It was just jammed into the chest cavity, but still overall happy with both. Edit....qc issue warning... So whoever put my prime ss together was drunk. After looking closely, I realized that it has 2 left biceps so when looking at it straight on, the right bicep is showing the hollowed out side of the plastic. Tranformation hasn't been a problem at all. What caught my attention to it was that when posing its right arm , it had a little snap to it when bending the elbow joint and the left arm didn't. Going to try to remove a peg or 2 later and reverse the bicep to make it less noticeable. Edit...again... Aaarrgh! I can't get these pins off without damaging the plastic around it. Looks like I'll have to live with it until voyager SS is out and/or if I'm luck enough to find another deluxe to exchange.
  17. checked my vf-11b after it's been in bat mode for a couple months. So far I spotted this on the right shoulder. Hopefully that's it.
  18. I got the impression he had to eject was because, you can't just drop armor packs on the yf-29 like the other VFs. or like in ZERO. That is of course if he was going for the same approach as Shin was, and trying to appear non-threatening.
  19. We can only wish.... But...It would probably be web exclusive like the green vf-27
  20. Oh I have a few questions! 1.) Who are her inspiration before she started singing and who inspires her now. 2.) Has she reached her goal as to what type or style of music she wants to do in this career? 3.) What did she think of California? Will she come back to anime expo?
  21. Iirc, the 480p avi hardsub'd was good enuff to play off my ps3 on a 42" tv. Streaming the higher res .mkv ones over wi-fi had issues.
  22. If anyone finds one that's hard sub'd, please, post link.
