    Bandai DX VF-31

    I may have to buy two of the armor sets so I can have an armored 31J and a clean, inevitable Episode 26 31J.
  2. Michelangelo finally showed up today. Once again I'm reminded how disappointing the execution of these figures are. There's very little dynamicism between the ball joint ankles and limited hips. Also Bandai really dropped the ball with hands for Raph and Mikey. Leo and Don only need hands for gripping but Raph and Mikey both can hold their weapons in multiple configurations and it's just not possible without forcing the open hands to get something as simple as Mikey holding the chucks folded together handle to handle. I'm concerned the plastic will be overstrained if I leave him like that. And it's entirely impossible for him to hold them crossed over between two fingers. Michelangelo is the most fun to pose overall, IMO.
  3. I'm on the outs with HLJ now so I went with CDJapan.
  4. Hmm, I'm not fond of the No Step markings on the chest. Everything else looks good.
  5. CdJapan now has the VFMF31 book available as well. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOBK-2054601
  6. FYI, the VF-31 Master File book is up at CDJapan now too. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOBK-2054601 Kind of irritating about CDJapan, you can actually ship via FedEx. But only if you buy books, music or movies. Toys, nope. No clue why. However FedEx for this book is $20!
  7. I'd prefer to see other parts of the plane. Like how the No Step tampos turn out on the wings, or how much of the additional markings they have on smaller bits like the hips or the back portions of the fighter. Hell, even the under carriage and what's on the gear doors. Also what the fast packs just look like in general.

    Yeah, the days of getting fancy with Japanese exclusives are over. Several online shops already cater to that market and there's no pre-order BS to deal with either. They're easier to buy than regular releases now.
  9. Looks good to me. The Ozma super parts might look decent on the 29B. I like seeing these collection pics because we also get to see a little bit of what else the members are into as well, like Benson's drum kit. Speaking of which, where can we hear you play them? I've posted several of my own DJ sets here before (you'll see the vinyl/tables when I finally get the shelves built.)
  10. From what I recall of those pics he still had the plastic cape. It's not my favorite look but from what I can tell this Batman figure is done pretty damn well. I may end up with this.
  11. Why not? FedEx specifically told him to contact the shipper (HLJ) to contact the Japanese branch of FedEx to get his refund and when he did HLJ punished him. Based on my own problems it appears the the Japan branch of FedEx are miss-managed now and HLJ must have hired the cha-cha who tried to push me around at AmiAmi because HLJ has TERRIBLE customer these days.
  12. And people got on my case (on Facebook...) when I mentioned HLJ weren't at all helpful/kind when they effed up my FedEx shipping stuff as well.

    It would be so awesome to have the Chronos updated with all of the built-in tabs, etc... Of the Siegfried.
  14. An addendm to this, Nintendo clarified that the Switch accepts up to 2 TB microSDXC cards and they're looking into allowing external hard drives (though I can't see that working out with a portable system.)

    Even the old photos of the Tomahawk looked a pink pink/purple-ish.
  16. I'm officially in full hype mode. It's been forever since I've been able to play a full console game. I'm happy I'll have a method for doing this again.

    Dos anybody besides amazon have that Master File book listed yet?
  18. I can vouch for this, from a certain point of view.
  19. That could be too but if you notice onnthe few pages shown Wolverine is shown with Rogue and they have her done up in a very Anna Paquine-ish fashion. I think they wanted the comic characters to resemble their movie counterparts. Also, Wolvies comic costume looksnl terrible there.
