  1. Yes, due to the higher quality factory Yamato is using recently, plus price increases in China and increased material costs, Yamato told me their production cost has risen 2.5 times in the past year They are also not happy about it, but would rather use this high quality factory. Graham
  2. No, I love it and will be getting multiples. Graham
  3. Problem is that side view art which everybody is comparing the toy to is terribly inaccurate as well. The legs, intakes, micro-missile ports, feet are all impossibly slim. Graham
  4. Pass. No interest at all. Graham
  5. This is a VF-17, not a VF-171! Graham
  6. Of course, it could all just be a cover for a Macross 30th aniversery anime. I mean contest to find idol singers for new anime sounds awfully Macross-y to me Graham
  7. Haha.....and what about the live action Evangelion? Honestly, the only live action anime adaptation, I'd probably look forward to seeing would be Black Lagoon. But then who would play Revy? Graham
  8. I completely disagree. Game of Thrones, which is probably 98% faithful to the books is how a TV adaptation should be. For myself, if I'm watching a book-to-TV, or book-to-movie adaptation I want it to be as faithful to the source material as possible. Honestly, if they had changed the title of The Walking Dead TV series to "Extremely Loosely Inspired by The Walking Dead", I probably would have enjoyed season one a lot more. At least then I wouldn't have had any false expectations. Graham
  9. Sigh..........do we have to go through this with each, new release. Photos are of a painted resin sculp, so of course fit & finish does not look great and why blocks are needed for support. Graham
  10. That's about as slim as you can keep fighter mode and still keep a decent n chunky-ish looking battroid mode. It's still miles slimmer than the Bandai 1/65 DX.Graham
  11. And just because it's not shown in that single Gerwalk mode photo, doesn't mean the lower legs can't bend forward. Ahem........pull lower leg down to extend knee joint & bend forward, as required
  12. But the VF-17's trademark and destinctive Gerwalk mode is supposed to be like that. Graham
  13. VF-11B and C didn't sell too well. Likely no more releases and no armour set due to poor sales of the base mecha Graham
  14. I think this discussion is over. It's obvious that only a very few people (vocal minority?) ever really had a problem with it. Not going to bring up with Yamato in this instance. Graham
  15. I agree, the VF-25F looks better naked, although I also like the Tornado pack. I've personally never liked the look of the Super Packs. Also agree that the Armoured Ozma is a different story, that looks awesome. Will also check Mong Kok tomorrow. Graham
  16. LOL, that is way cool. Graham One of the many weight saving measures they had to make I guess. Graham
  17. I wonder when it will hit HK shops, as we often get Bandai toys a few days before the official release date. Graham
  18. I want a Mclane and Putin team up, that would be cool! Graham
  19. Friend who is a fan of the original saw it yesterday, gave it the thumbs down. Rental or download material only. he said. Graham
  20. 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
  21. Looking forward to this. Graham
  22. Ditto, was very disappointed when I found out that it wasn't about the Colt 1911 and John Moses Browning Graham
  23. 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
