  1. I agree, but the screaming and crying are about the same things. The Axanar campaign was very clear what they were doing. Most of it is just inflated expectations and low reading comprehension.
  2. I hear there are A LOT of donors unhappy with how that Kickstarter turned out. They're calling for heads, claiming they haven't been transparent with how the money has been spent at all. It's a lot like reading the Robotech Kickstarter threads, actually.
  3. She only comments on them in fighter mode, except for the 0D which she found pretty impressive looking in Gerwalk as well. (Just FYI, she thinks the Figuarts Ashigaru Storm Trooper is a work of art.)
  4. By all means, play whatever games they expect you to play. Doesn't mean I'm not going to call all of their rules as stupid.
  5. I have one on order but I still don't think this is going to be a very good release. My issue with them putting this on the fans to keep the line going is they need to make a product worth wanting to go back to again and again. Right now it's a passable 2SS but it's not a great one, and based on the mold not even a good one. It's just the only one. Sure, there is a different prototype version or two coming, but given Tochiro didn't ask things like "does the new mold get rid of those hideous posts for the engines" or "will the fighter actually be shaped correct" plus the fact they weren't aware the giant tabs on Battroid are a problem, it's pretty clear they aren't going to fix the issues we all have. And I think they won't be fixed if they rely on the Japanese market suggestions alone as the culture isn't the type to be direct with their criticisms like we in the west are. At least they have some taste, the 2JA is the better way to go as it doesn't look hideous like the Metal Siren does.
  6. My 29B finally arrived in the mail yesterday. The most glowing review I can give is that it's another piece my Mother commented on (if she bothers to notice something on the shelf at all that's a surprise.) This one, she says, reminds her of the Airforce dress uniforms. This, the 0D and the VF-19F are the three she has commented on at all. Maybe she just has a thing for dark blue planes...
  7. That's it, two seater. I'm thinking the armor is going to be $150+.
  8. Given how "all-in" they seem to be with the Zero stuff perhaps we'll see new SV-51's?
  9. To me it sounds like he's saying the prototype here doesn't have any markings applied yet.
  10. What the hell are you people on about? The VF-0D DID NOT use the same white as their VF-1's did.
  11. No Gerwalk photos? The 27 has the next best "bird-or-prey" look just after the SV-51.
  12. And now the question, is it just the armor? Do we all need to buy two 0S'es now?
  13. How is Cap? Based on all of these photos it doesn't really look like Hulk and Cap really mesh with how Iron Man looks visually.
  14. Sorry, was referring to the YF-25.
  15. I love it when we get insight from someone who has actually worked on these systems in such detail. Also, are you seriously living in the UAE right now? How is it?
  16. Yeah, both figures have been put back up at Nippon-Yasan several times while I was indisposed. Doesn't much matter, the two I already ordered are paid for so it's not like I can just pull out now if it's a scam. I messaged BandaiOnline and supposedly they claim they'll be shipped after the weekend and asked me to verify my address.
  17. Gun Pods as well. It's not just a unique head sculpt. The entire cockpit area is different as well.
  18. So here's the deal, that pic Mr K showed right there. Your Valk can look exactly like that when you get it. Just apply the decals. That photo shopped image of the VF-19 is FAKE, FALSE, A LIE. With the leg super parts attached there's a MASSIVE GAP IN THE WING ROOT. There's a big difference between something you don't like, and something that was a blatant lie.
  19. They're decals, can you not see it? Not even trimmed decals. And a few extra markings isn't like showing a VF-19 that is transformed in a way that is completely impossible on the real toy.
  20. I'm not convinced the head needs to be larger, just that the chest vanes needs to be a bit shorter so the head is easier to see. And part of the problem is that the gap for the head is too narrow on the toy. It's far wider on the lineart. Good catch on the shoulder thrusters pretty much not protruding at all too. I think the thighs area bit too thick on your new version as well.
  21. I'm going to watch the hell out of this with my Niece and Nephew.
  22. Anyone have any more news on their Cap and Hulk pre-orders? Looks like Nippon-Yasan had them back up for a bit while I was asleep but they're gone again now.
  23. This makes no sense given that the toy looks pretty off from the lineart. If you were a design fan you should be let down.
