  1. Just arrived. It's a big sucker. Only the Monster and officer's pod are bigger. Leans closer to a seven inch scaled figure. A little finicky to pose so far, though.
  2. If you look at the history of toys, and specifically action figures, basically there were no real figure properties outside of the long-running Barbie and a long dormant GI Joe until Star Wars released in 77. Once the licensing arms race combined with the removal of regulations preveneting Hasbro/Mattell/etc from producing half hour toy commercials kicked off we had all of these toys. Outside of a few seemingly evergreen properties (TMNT), some smaller or occassional upstarts like Fortnight and foreign markets (because Japans toy market has always been different) I can't see how figures will exist in the same capacity as they do now with the late 30's to late 40's crowd aging out. We basically started buying figures at age 8 and haven't stopped. But younger generations don't care, it's like a return to the 70's prior to Star Wars.
  3. USA Gundam has their Roy's marked down to $129.99 right now. https://www.usagundamstore.com/products/macross-zero-hi-metal-r-roy-fokkers-vf-0s-phoenix
  4. A case of engineers who don't understand what fore-shortening is? The firearm is large there because of its angle closer to the viewer versus the rest of the body.
  5. Swap out the head on that body and it's a perfect white queen. Steal the head sculpt and she makes a perfect Sue Storm.
  6. Looks like yes. The original Macross portion with Hikaru/Minmay appears to be DLC. They can sell the base game here and then if they feel lik3 sharing dlc profits with HG choose to do that or make the dlc Japan-only.
  7. Bandai have so many different lines these na.es can get co fusing if you're just starting out. Since I grabbed that Heat Boys Leonardo I wanted to compare it with something else. Looks like I should have got that Deathscythe (personal favorite) but wasn't sure what I was looking at.
  8. The armors and supers fit better on the new Hayate. Except for my old Super thigh part, that apparently wasn't glued, and then every single thing that could go wrong gluing something did. But it'll work if you aren't three stooges combined.
  9. I went ahead and ordered. I have a lot of love for that particular costume... would've preferred Rogue or something though.
  10. There's a second image... as if we don't k ow what the training costume looks like.
  11. I'm pretty sure I made a joke about MEzco making a Blue/Gold Wolverine after Hasbro released theirs and it looks like I was completely right.
  12. So are all of these new pics from the second Hayate release?
  13. You're right, the last Marvel announcement were the Winter Soldier figures six months ago. I definitely am disappointed at a lack of more X-Men (though to be honest they've been nailing the DC licenses but have been very mixed on Marvel.) Four deep on the Blue team and on our way on the Gold team. I was hoping they would make an Iceman because it'll be the first time any company might make a decent one.
  14. Christ, I cannot finish watching that person "play" the game.
  15. It has to be much larger than that. The odds of so many of us being part of that 1% is basically impossible.
  16. That thing has some really odd proportions. And a giant, round head.
  17. Don't know but given how long it's taken them to get their Dread Samus out I'd wager we aren't seeing this thing until 2026 at least.
  18. About effing time, Figma.
