  1. Anybody get any of the latest Star Wars figures? LA custms held yalf of my packages for over a week so I got the one woth K2SO and the two death troopers. Honestly, Hasbro did a spectacular job with K2SO so the figuarts one wasn't anything special. The Drath Troopers can actually posed wih their rifles so that's a huge improvement. Also they don't have long moneky arms like the Black Series versions. Still wondering when the Shore Troopers are goong to arrive.

    Anyone who looked at the Facebook page knows I'm still waiting on my effing 31J though it is actually in the US now. Turns out there was a problem with the paperwork for clearance outside the country. Would have been useful info for FedEx to provide so I could contact HLJ about it.
  3. Christ, the Carriers are MASSIVELY over-sized too. The Prometheus shouldn't be longer than the fricking legs.

    My 31 is already on the way!
  5. Chewie should be out in April. HLJ must be confused. I'll write up my thoughts on the digures when they arrive. Estimate is tomorrow, which I don't buy.

    To be honest while there is an obvious lineage between the 25 and 30/31 they're really totally different overall. it would be like if you didn't like the VF-5000 because it's like the VF-1. And, as a matter of fact, the VF-5000's transformation is far closer to the VF-1 than the YF-30/VF-31 is to the 25 series and it still has it's own unique look in all three modes. The YF-30/VF-31 is like an amalgam of the 19/21/25. Only the exterior styling and basic shape are reminiscent of the 25, the actual configuration/transformation is like the 19 with the arms stowed to the outside of the body like on the 21/22 (more so the 30, the 31 deviates from that further.)

    To be honest I've never had them take very long shipping things except for maybe once they did take two or three days.

    You cannot "Pay Later" on web exclusive items from NY anymore. You have to pay up-front. They changed their policy in October of 2014, and that was a huge pill to swallow given how many of us had Pre-ordered the Figuarts Hulkbuster and suddenly had to cough up $300+. Also, I'm enjoying all of the price bitching. Remember when Arcadia were the overpriced bad-guys and Bandai were the low priced saviors who should completely eclipse and push Arcadia out of the market because their prices were so much lower and they could never, ever, in any way, shape or form hike the prices on their merchandise... and that's why I laugh.
  9. This looks damn awesome!
  10. Wow, that's amazing pre-orders are still open for this.

    Looks like Messer.
  12. Early comments are positive. Then again, most comments of TFA were positive too. This one is being called one of the better Star Wars films... so was TFA. I'll have to make my own judgement I suppose given how muddled (and clearly fanboyish) all of the reviews for TFA were because none of the early buzz can give a predictor if this is actually worthwhile or not.
  13. I really hope this one is going to be good. Either way the new Figuarts troopers look cool and will be fun to pose.

    Why? The YF-30 can be displayed without the stand just fine.
  15. Not that weird really but in the latest episode of Trekyards the designer of the Next Generation Klingon Vorcha Attack Cruiser, Rick Sternbach, openly admitted the forked disruptor on the front of the ship was directly inspired by the Macross and Yamato.

    It shouldn't, the YF-30 doesn't have that.
  17. There's a trick to those joints. Because they fold up and down you have a tendancy to try to flip them up and down but it's actually easier to push In toward the intake.

    Hmm, did they do away with that peg that connects the shoulder parts together when going from Fighter to Gerwalk/Battroid like they have on the 30? Ahhh, see that? THey built in the clips that hold the upper half of the body to the lower half in Battroid this time. Time for an upgraded YF-30 that fixes that loose garbage.

    I want the 31 toys. All of them.
  20. That's a lot more RDJ than I thought. Kinda weird, he has a roommate who's a fat, Hispanic kid. That's like straight out of the Miles Morales books.
  21. I can't even remember if I pre-ordered that anywhere.
