  1. There was an interview with him within the last year, though I can't remember where (Conan... something Late Night, possibly local since I do live where they filmed Breaking Bad). He mentioned doing a lot of voice work for various Anime before he started betting larger roles. He didn't call any shows out by name, he said he couldn't remember the names, but he said it was very different/strange.
  2. Given your Qu Rau overhaul you expect me to believe you're inept at this stuff?
  3. I would imagine it could be for both.
  4. Unfortunately that's more talent then I possess.
  5. I guess we have different definitions of "fit." You can put it on but you're cramming it on there and making it work in a fashion that isn't really proper. I tried it with my Fast Packs and despite making it work it just wasn't right. The packs don't actually snap into those grooves on the wing roots like they're supposed to. You're just wedging it between the wing root and wing.
  6. This is a great photo.
  7. It's still wishful thinking. People are expecting releases from Arcadia exactly like Yamato did. That method tanked Yamato. They aren't going to do that again.
  8. I love it, I think it's all hilarious.
  9. After the bits and pieces of the last 19 release we've already had paint chipping problems with I'd call that thing a HUGE scratch danger.
  10. I put the "Keep Crean" stickers on my VF-4G's because I thought it was hilarious.
  11. None of those things were confirmed. It was all wishful thinking by board members.
  12. Not really. It appears to be the same ball-joints they have on all of their releases.
  13. The arms shouldn't change positions at all. They stay exactly where they always are in Fighter. The leg is clicked forward one notch at the thigh and back one notch at the knee.
  14. I believe there was someone in this very thread who posted pics of their 19 with the Fast Packs crammed on it.
  15. There's no way to "correctly" insert the packs. They really don't fit and were never designed to. However, you have to extend the metal swing bar. Essentially the 25 packs will fit over that bar. Everything else on the 19 is too thick.
  16. There's three parts to the Fast Packs. There's the leg pack that sticks to the side of the leg. There's the second leg pack that fits onto the back of the leg, and that's what the arm attaches to when in fighter mode. Then there's the shoulder pack. Neither of them really fits. You have to extend the wing all the way out and even still the pack doesn't really attach and is just wedged on.
  17. There's nothing usual about Arcadia's releases. They haven't been producing stuff long enough to know if/when they would do something like that.
  18. It doesn't come out for another year dude, they'll likely start in late October/early November just like the YF-19 did.
  19. I'm saying in toy for, especially Bandai toy form, it means ALL of the stability is reliant on how tight those hip joints are. And Bandai hip joints are known to suck and fail, if not come right out of the box already loose.
  20. Given what the cost of the original Zero was, nearly $200, I'd wager it will cost somewhere between what the VF-19 and VF-17 were. $230-$280 range.
  21. I don;t mind dark canopies, I just feel the tint of the blue color isn't fantastic.
  22. That compounded with nothing attached to the intakes in Gerwalk probably means this thing will be floppy in no time. Provided Bandai hasn't come up with some new mechanism to counter it... since they can no longer rely on anything else but the joints. Or just put it on a shitty stand.
  23. Given every single mode isn't transformed correct here it's hard to tell what is and isn't supposed to be a certain way. The issue with Gerwalk and the intakes is that the intakes actually attach right where the shoulders are. Once those arms are folded out I'm not sure where the intakes could reattach to. Interesting to note there is a small swing bar in that flipped down crotch area so the legs might not have to rotate 180 like it appears. Like it or not, I still don't believe the intakes attach to the main body on this one as the top half is supposed to swivel in both Gerwalk and Battroid. Yup, I just checked out the original Lego video and the intakes are not attached there. Could be explained away by it being made of Lego. However, I also checked out some video from the game on youtube. http://youtu.be/yUiwsQrb-Vk?t=3m58s There's clearly a gap between the fuselage and intakes there as well. That means, God help us, the weight of this thing will be held up entirely by those hip joints of which Bandai can NEVER get correct/tight. It will end up floppy, unless they've come up with some sort of mechanism to compensate. I personally have no faith in Bandai to do that. Another interesting note. Although they're never used in game both that render Swoosh posted and on the original Lego video Kawamori clearly designed the YF-30 to have hardpoints as they're present in all footage.
