    This should be good... I remember coming home from school when I was in pre-school or kindergarten and looking forward to watching the latest episodes of Speed Racer...one of my earliest memories...dang I'm old!

    It really does look to me that he is trying to do the colors that match that of the first Zentran we see in the show....I hope he can avoid using those "candy apple" type paints and stick to how his original concept fig looked....I'd be OK with either the purple or brown armor as long as the colors were as close to the anime and more importantly flat or semi gloss at worst....
  8. jvmacross
    So it's also the wrong fig for the regult?
  9. jvmacross
    Thanks....Nobody seems to really ask the important questions on their FB site....

    It's new box!
  11. jvmacross
    Maybe he is trying to go for the 'brownish' version of the armor?....but even then....the colors are still off and the shiny aspect just makes it worse...and the helmet is wrong...
  12. jvmacross
    Agreed....they seem enamored by those sparkly paints... The other thing that has not been brought up is the size....I am glad that this fig will apparently fit into the Regult's cockpit...but I honestly would have preferred a static fig for the cockpit and a 6" figure that matches the rest of their fig line....plus it would look better against an HMR or even their own VF-1's....oh well....beggars can't be choosers, right?
  13. jvmacross
    Most collectors are probably not buying it for the actual VF-1J

    Bandai knows everyone loves variants!
  15. jvmacross
    Bandai's market research obviously shows that this has more demand than an HMR Tomahawk or Phalanx...

    Nice....another mystery solved!

    The pic is fuzzy...but they almost look like Morinagas

    Wonder if he worked on this rough draft....

    I too recived my Regults..three of them...with no explanation, until recently, on the missing Gluu-Gers that were advertised to be included....and the wait was over 2.5+ years with hardly an update during most of that time....and that is not even taking into account everything else they have yet to deliver on while asking for yet more payments for 'promises'.... To me throwing more cash at KC would be less about confidence and more about blind faith...at the moment I've run out of both for KC... I do wish them luck though....
  21. jvmacross
    You answered your own question....lol
  22. jvmacross
    He asked what the drama was....so explained it... Also, if they know they cannot produce the items after taking customer deposits they should be clear about that....instead, they decided not to say anything or provide few or any updates, so now they have a trust problem... At some point their current business model will not be sustainable and many are in a position to lose their money....unless you think KC will return all deposits? I do not belive that their current goal is a guarantee that every item will get produced, if he is struggling to produce the items that are stiil pending with paid deposits....
  23. jvmacross
    For the KitzConcept KickStarter it's a bit more complicated.... KC's existing PO system essentially works like a kickstarter....pay a deposit in advance for the delivery of the item at some future date.....which was working fine until their release dates became more erratic to the point where POs are now taking years to get released....all while receiving next to no updates on the PO release dates... And this is the biggest issue with the KC Kickstarter....like their most "recent" POs....the listed release dates on all of their Kickstarter items are now meaningless due to how they have been handling their current open POs...does anyone really think they can stick to the tight schedule they are advertising on Kickstarter? Unfortunately, KC is now insinuating that only via Kickstarter support will their customers be able to get any of the items on their current Kickstarter....they are counting on the anxieties of some of their customers....as the saying goes, fool me once.... Instead, KC should concentrate on reorganizing how they release their product....get their open POs delivered....then rethink their future production schedules so that years long waiting for items in the dark becomes a thing of the past....personally, I don't mind if they release only 1-2 items per year as long as they are released as promised....for additional cash, maybe a couple of VF-1 repaints or some of the canon schemes they have not released in between new product releases...I hope KC can fix their problems...
  24. jvmacross
    It's fine for a VF-1 that is supposed to be more flamboyant than combat versions....not so much for Zentran soldiers....hoping they just go with flat or semi-gloss at worst...and more importantly use the color combinations actually seen on the show....
  25. jvmacross
    It'd be dissapointing if after all this time KC decides to get loose on their "creative interpretations" for the paint applications on their Gluu-Ger....Hopefully they have run out of all of the metallic paints they have been using lately! Seriously KC.....no gloss! Stick to the "canon" colors please...
