    I wonder when it will hit HK shops, as we often get Bandai toys a few days before the official release date. Graham

    Friend who is a fan of the original saw it yesterday, gave it the thumbs down. Rental or download material only. he said. Graham

    Although, Maggie Q is always easy on the eyes. Graham

    IMO, the only good Die Hard was the first one, bit like Highlander and Robocop really! I don't waste my time with the sequels. Graham

    Looking forward to this. Graham

    Ditto, was very disappointed when I found out that it wasn't about the Colt 1911 and John Moses Browning Graham

    This mook, "Macross Mechanics 01" that came out at the end of September seems to have come in under the radar. http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/4798602760/ref=pe_2102_26547942_snp_explore Apologies if it's been mentioned already. Just saw it on Amazon JP and ordered it. Seems to be a Macross model book from Hobby Japan. Graham

    Glad they finally got the gunpod shae and proportions right. Graham

    Enjoyed this epoisode. Nice to see a lot more of Commander Wolfe and his troopers and enjoyed seeing how strict and impatient Wolfe was and how his attitude rubbed off on his troopers, in the way they treated C3PO. Graham

    Hmm.......wish Bandai would announce whether the super and armoured packs are going to be bundles or stand alone web-exclusives. If they are going to be bundles, I will hold off getting the original first releases of the naked (bare) V2s. Graham

    Don't worry, the new gunpod is fine. Graham

    Several of my CM's Macross figures, most notibly the standing and Q-Rau cockpit Milia figures are now very tacky and sticky to the touch. In fact the paint on the Standing Milia figure has started coming off (adhering to) the WQ-rau it was leaning against Graham

    The VF-19S/F/Kai/P carries the gunpod on the underside, same as YF-19. You are thinking of the VF-17S/D, which carries the gun internally in the leg, or the VF-22S, which carries two gunpods in the leg bay panels. Graham

    Yamato 1/60 VF-5000G

    Graham replied to valk1j's topic in Toys

    Would much rather have a VF-5000B than a VF-5000G. Graham

    I've never had a toy make me so angry before as the YF-29, that it made me want to throw it full force against the wall and then stomp up and down on it. Graham

    It's a stealth Valk, utilising both passive and active stealth. The intake covers are not supposed to open/come off. Graham

    I dunno, sorry to be a killjoy, as there's obviously those of you into Pachinko, but I can't help feel the talent and effort behind this would have been better served focused into a new anime or console game. Graham

    As well as the rapidly loosening shoulders and hip joints, I also consider the design of the shoulder armour attachment to be seriously flawed. The damn shoulder armour pops of at the slightest touch and I find that transforming the toy, especially to and from fighter mode is an exercise in frustration beacuse of this. I've already had one incident where I seriously lost my patience with the toy after the shoulder armour popped off for the twentieth time during transformation and ended up throwing both shoulder armours at the wall as hard as I could. One of them came apart at the seam line. Luckily I could glue it back together. When a toy is this frustrating, it ceases to be fun. It was lucky it was only the shoulder armours I threw. I nearly ended up throwing the whole toy at the wall in anger. I'm very experienced with VF toys and usually extremely calm and patient, but the YF-29 and Bandai 1/60 v.1 Armoured VF-25S Ozma have tested my patience like no other toys ever have. Basically, out of the two VF toys purchased recently (VF-19Kai & YF-29), the YF-29 has become a 'don't touch' shelf warmer, where as the VF-19Kai still gets handled and transformed all the time.

    VF-17S should be shipping late Dec or early Jan. Graham
  23. Graham
    Just to note, the magazine on the gunpod will be the standard gunpod magazine, not the beam adaptor, so should be grey, not orange. Graham

    OK, from time to time, I've seen people on this forum complain about the appearence of the v2 1/60 VF-1 neck. I've gotta ask, what exactly is the problem? To me the neck has always looked fine. Could somebody please post a clear pic with text and arrows (if necessary) explaining what it is about the neck that they think looks off, as I just don't see or get it. I will then possibly raise this issue with Yamato. But I do need a clear illustrated explanation, perhaps including comparison pics with the lineart. Thanks in advance, Graham

    Hmmm.........perhaps people should try using a little less 'force'. The words "force" and "transforming plastic toys" are never a good mix. Seriously, if I had a spare junker VF-19, it would be an interesting experiment to see how much force is needed to force the socket apart. Haven't experienced this problem on my two VF-19 and I'm not gentle with them either. Not rough, but not gentle. Graham
