  1. You know you want it. Just buy it.
  2. So what's the recommended way to prep the finishing parts?
  3. My SDF-1 was dropped off at my door. Hopefully it'll be there when I get home and it won't have melted. It is 91 degrees right now.
  4. Only character they fleshed out? Who else was left, The Cul Obsidian? Literally EVERYBODY else in the movie already had their own films or featured in at least two previous.
  5. I don't know what to think about this. I don't really like Disney but I would really like for Marvel to be able to make good movies with their properties again.
  6. Oh shite! At $600 that’s no effing joke, man! Unfortunately NY is not known. For their customer service.
  7. I have mentioned this several times now. If you've ordered a Japan-only item from BBTS you will have to wait at least a month after release before they will get it in.
  8. Neither is better. The 171 is closer in “lineart” because it was based on a 3D model but it’s overengineered and isn’t fun to transform at all. The green cf ones have the auto-exploding shoulders. The Yamato is fatter than the lineart in fighter and the backpack sticks out from the back too far in Battroid (though this does make posing better). And it can be pokey when transforming thought if you can think ahead about where each part is going to go it’s manageable.
  9. I’m just asking because I live in a desert and we’re lucky if humidy gets up towards double digits. Also, it’ll be in the 90’s by Tuesday.
  10. So were any of them disintegrating?
  11. So those of us who pre-ordered should be expecting Rei soon?
  12. Absolutely not. I paid ¥22,320 (cut and pasted from the order e-mail from HLJ) for the original 17S and the exchange rate was 75.83 yen to the dollar. Making this thing just barely sub $300, and well above with shipping.
  13. Why do i have to wait 24 hours for the primer to dry? That doesn’t have anything to do with most people around here living in humid climates is it?
  14. So the idea is to prime these things while still on the sprues as much as possible?
  15. Here’s a lineup of Figma Hulk, Marvel Legends Gladiator Hulk and the Figuarts Gladiator Hulk. Figuarts is tallest, ML is beefiest, Figma is the Shortest but probably best proportioned still. Figuarts Hulk has the best articulation by far, but it also has the unfortunate problem of hands that are so loose they barely hold the weapons and there's an odd insert for the wrists to keep the hands from drooping when holding the weapons that ends up making the hands extremely difficult to keep on the peg.
  16. I would say no, it’s not the definitive one. The bizarre decision to give him a soft goods cape but leave the undergarment plastic, plus the weak ankle articulation, leaves too much to be desired. It’s still a good looking figure and easily displaces the V.1. I don’t know about Thor but now that you mention it I don’t think he has an unmasked head, or even his mace and shield from the actual gladiator fight.
  17. Gladiator Hulk just got picked up. He’s pretty heavy too. Looks quite a bit larger than the regular le Figuarts Hulk too. Will take company ison pics with the Legends figure when I get home.
  18. My brother refused to watch The Transformers Movie because he heard about what happened to Optimus Prime.
  19. I think Endgame is a terrible title. I’ve heard rumors it’s The Thanos Imperative. That would have zero tie-in to the comic.
  20. I completely disagree. Face it. We all fail. It’s a great lesson. Besides, I survived Empire Strikes Back at seven. A 10 year old will be fine.
  21. Oh yes, this Vader is nice and tall. He makes Marvel Legends figures look small. Does the Ragnarock Thor not count for short haired?
  22. Well, the Yammies were around and available for three or four months. Certainly no rush, but they didn’t stay around too too long. Unlike the 11C which languished for a good three years with multiple deep discounts at HLJ and only sold out when people began to panic about Yamatos demise. It’s hilarious how cheap I bought my second and third for.

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    I’m considered ng keeping both of mine now. I eant to mod it so I can mount two fold boosters on one plane. Plus I can dual wield arm cannons.
  24. Well I just call it Star Wars but ever since the prequels came out people get confused if you don’t say Episode IV or A New Hope.
