  1. To be honest Iron Man is there in the back too, but we've seen him already. I'm pretty excited for these as well though I am disappointed there aren't silhouettes for the rest of the team (or a Hulk Buster Armor and Ultron himself) as well. I've been VERY happy with my Marvel Now Iron Man and want to get War Machine plus the two from Iron Man 3. Hopefully these will be out around the time of the movie instead of lagging behind by a year. Actually, hopefully Bandai goes whole hog with Marvel licenses and we get better figures then those damn Hasbro Marvel Legends toys (with a few exceptions.)
  2. It's been awhile since I've come around here. I guess I'll put up the latest from one of my production idols:
  3. Apparently there's some sort of special Blu-ray release of Godzilla that's going to include a red version of the MonsterArts Godzilla as well. http://news.toyark.com/2014/11/03/amazon-japan-exclusive-sh-monsterarts-godzilla-2014-blu-ray-143707 Also, Age of Ultron FiguArts as well.
  4. Any updates on this build?
  5. What? Seriously!? Random bitch lashes out at you whenever she's pissed off. Everyone keeps reminding you that you owe them. That's not comforting in any way. But it does go to show how many freedoms/rights people will toss away for the facade of "safety."
  6. Sorry gentlemen, I haven't had time to take pics this weekend. I've got one all Gerwalked up but I don't be doing Battroid both because the transformation is miserable and that it was a terrible, half-assed attempt on Bandai's part.
  7. I tried to put the armor parts on and with the fin folded up beneath it can't quite sit on all three landing gears. The fin is slightly too thick to work.
  8. There's a lot of parts but that also means you can reach/paint on a lot of detail and tweak each of their looks a decent bit.
  9. There's a lot of reading between lines that aren't there in regards to my comment. I was being purely analytical. People have already slagged off Arcadia and praised Bandai for this release based solely on these few pics without considering Bandai's history and basing everything on the potential lower price. There are some things here that look good, but that was true of the 30 and they packed some odd into that one that dropped my excitement for it greatly. I'm keeping my skepticism high now. The ankles already look like the versions from the VF-171 and if they implement a similar upper thigh mechanic this will be the superior Gerwalk mode in terms of poseability simply because of that. But given the shape of the chest pieces it resembles the Hi-Metals greatly and I despise the way fighter/gerwalk looks on those releases. I was probably the most critical of Arcadia's YF-19. But after all of he half-assed efforts from Bandai recently I don't have the same faith in their design I might have once had after their 25's.
  10. You know hoping the old Yamato's shelf-warmed is partly why they tanked. Waiting for these to shelf-warm is like asking Arcadia to stop making things.
  11. Because the price is lower, no doubt many will gladly buy this and claim it's the superior toy. Based on Battroid alone I'm thinking Fighter mode won't look as good. Maybe it will be "good enough" to people who couldn't, or wouldn't, afford the Arcadia version. But that won't necessarily make it the best. I'm willing to bet there will be brilliant little details on this in addition to some head scratching stupid as is Bandai's way. From my stance this is going to be an interesting, mildly cheaper wtf.
  12. The problem is that I'm an adult now, who may or may not have experienced something similar (without all of the Universal Destruction.) When you were a kid it was probably cool as hell watching reality be dismantled but from my perspective it's like she doesn't like you, time to move on dude. All I think is why doesn't Thanos like himself, poor bastard.
  13. Only showed up ten months late... that's pretty much on time for Palladium. I have a lot of painting and assembly ahead of me. No idea how to clean off the bit after I taken it off the sprue.
  14. Actually, I found it rather stupid. Essentially it's just a guy who doesn't like himself trying to impress a woman who was never interested to begin with. Not really a ride or necessarily even a critique of comic book nerds but anybody with low self esteem.
  15. What about VF-1's with super parts? You don't have a Vermillion Squadron to throw up would you?
  16. Actually that's just from the Mac30 game and it wasn't the YF-30 that took Isamu down. Brera in his 27 is the one to take him out. Plus that wasn't in his VF-19Advance either. Although, according to the game, Leon was able to outmaneuver both the YF-21 and VF-27 at the same time, which is impressive.
  17. Do you have a 171 of any kind? I could just send you one of my two stands and you can mess with it.
  18. If you could track that back down I'd love to hear the whole story.
  19. Unfortunately there's a bit of an additional bump on the back of the fighter where the Dish attaches to. It's not just flat, like the Alto version, with some peg holes. Part of the base of the Dish is attached to the back of the Valk. I haven't tried to remove that part yet but it looks attached to me. Plus there's some additional holes for the rest of the dish to plug in to. So it's not quite like the Alto but it works okay.
  20. Perhaps Isamu is a savvy investor? I wouldn't ever buy that. The father of a buddy of mine was just a regular Air Force pilot and in his sixties he's still just as cocky and full of himself as he was in his twenties. I don't think those kinds of test pilot personalities ever really go away. Look at Buzz Aldrin, he still has attitude today.
  21. Both of mine showed up today (Happy belated Birthday to me!) The additional weight from the dish and fin does make posing in gerwalk a tad bit difficult. I'd take some photos of Fighter and Gerwalk (I hate the half-assed way they handled Battroid here so I won't ever transform that far) but this weekend is extremely busy and I'm heading out the door for the evening.
