    The KC Kickstarter would need to add $4250 each day for the next 28 days to meet its funding goal....I don't belive it is a realistic goal.... I have been told that the Zentradi figures sold via the initial Regult PO's will come at some point and are not tied to the success of the Kickstarter....I have no choice but to take their word on this.... If the recently released Regult is any indication...their NON-TRANSFORMING Macross mecha should be incredible....I really hope they eventually see the light of day....but for now I am in too deep on promised and unreleased KC items to throw more cash their way....I truly hope they can at least get to the figures...with or without Kickstarter...

    FWIW....sent them a 'polite' email letting them know that it is difficult for me to support a kickstarter for more items (no matter how great they look) when they have yet to deliver or even update on the release of existing POs....as of now I have the following PO deposits with them with essentially no update on any of them except the Battlepod Artillery attachments (and TBH, that is just based on recent posts that they are being released at some point)... 1/72 MACROSS ZENTRADI-TWO SPECIAL EDITION ARTILLERY BATTLEPOD 1/72 VF-1A MIRIYA & MAX Metal Special Edition with an additional 1/12 MIRIYA figure 1/72 MACROSS ZENTRADI GLUU-GER (REGAULT) PREORDER DEPOSIT X 3 1/72 HEAVY ARMOUR RICK HUNTER- PREORDER DEPOSIT I have asked for release updates on these items and told them I cannot commit to additional PO's until I receive what I already have on PO...or at minimum some realistic timeframe of when they are to be released. I specifically requested the status of the Zentran pilots which were advertised to be included during the initial Battlepod PO....or whether their release is now entirely contingent on their Kickstarter Project meeting it's pledge goal... I doubt they will respond, but I will follow-up if they do.

    Well, going by the Regult, all of the other non-tranforming mechs would likely be very good....I hope I am wrong, but I have a bad feeling none of them will see the light of day, unless they give up on this Kickstarter nonsense....

    As far as I can remember, I don't think they have teased the Spartan....looks great....would definitely buy all of them if they were to be released "normally"....even by KC's standards of normal release schedules.... As it stands....there is no way I would commit any more money to KC....let alone close to 600 USD for the "possibility" of KC coming through with everything they have listed as a Wave 1 release...323 USD for the Mechs and 258 USD for all figures.... NOPE..... KC has officially gone of the rails of the crazy train!

    KC doesn't need a Kickstarter...customers were already giving them money to secure PO's...this worked until they stopped delivering PO items on a timely basis....how will doing the same thing via Kickstarter change this? Also....does this mean they will not produce and deliver on the Regult pilot figs unless there is a Kickstarter that funds their release? I guess I'm out....and can only hope to get what I have PO'd via a deposit at some point....but not feeling very optimistic that will happen before they go out of business.... So if the Kickstarter goal isn't met....they won't release any of what is being shown? Very dissapointing...

    In a long line of bad Robotech ideas, this has got to be among the top 3...top 10 for sure! I'm sure HG showed no hesitation in taking Unix's money....but then again I doubt they have ever said no to any licensing request...LOL
  10. jvmacross
    Nah...I like some SD stuff when done well....these Unix Robotech toys are being rejected by many collectors because they are just simply terrible looking...
  11. jvmacross
    I found it entertaining....better than some of the other Marvel D+ shows...
  12. jvmacross
    OK, then go for the Hot Cocoa

    Ran out of Kool-Aid?

    I won't let people's opinions get me all flustered like some on here clearly do...everyone is free to express whatever they want...you can either agree, not agree, or not care/not respond...just don't try and silence anyone with an opposing opinion or comment....it's just a TV show, no one is insulting anyone's mother...no need to summon the dog whistles of 'Toxic Fandom', 'Troll Train', etc just because what is being said does not align with your thoughts... With that said, this show has a high probability of being another in a long line of Disney Star Wars Sh!t Shows....as I said, I'll watch it anyways, I want it to be good, but I have been disappointed too many times already...
  15. jvmacross
    Ok....so you no longer feel anything would be too weird for Disney to do?
  16. jvmacross
    So......nothing is too weird for Disney then?
  17. jvmacross
    Oh I'll still watch it....I somehow continue to pay for a D+ subscription....there is always a sliver of hope with these shows....I just finished Agatha All Along and thought it was fairly entertaining....went in with zero expectations which is the only way to go with D+ these days...
  18. jvmacross
    Because if she really was blind her eyes would look different? Is that how blindness always works? I haven't seen the show so just making observations at the moment because I can...lol Besides....Disney Star Wars has a really bad track record so I don't see an issue if folks are inclined to show no mercy at this point and are eager to eviscerate the show as soon as they see fit....

    Space Lesbian Witches....Space Vespa riding cyborg gangs....Luke drinking straight from the teet of a space manatee....Jack Black and Lizzo..... Disney Lucasfilm 'creatives': Hold my beer!

    An eviable position to have been in...

    ...and the cybernetically enhanced girl makes this series more in-line with the worst parts of what we have seen in the Mando universe than the better ones...space scooters included...LOL
  22. jvmacross
    This garbage seems to also have slots to accomodate fast packs....wonder how they will ruin that concept....lol
  23. jvmacross
    Maybe....saying he is not the same species doesn't me he isn't half of that species....lol

    OK so Elephant Boy just goes back to looking ridiculous with his blue toupee....not the worst of all the alien kids ever seen in Star Wars, but since the list is short, he scores at least in the top 3 IMO....with Baby Yoda/Grogu being the best design...

    It would be extremely difficult to find all of the 'blue' armor pieces specific to the 1990 Super VF-1S....if you are just looking to make your toy 'whole' again....you may be better off trying to find a boxed sample with a very 'yellowed' VF-1S, but with relatively good condition accessories....I would suggest to search on Yahoo Japan Auctions and purchase via a proxy like Buyee......if you are looking to make it whole to sell it, you are wasting your time as it would not fetch more than $100-150 in its current condition even with all the armor pieces and accessories....in short, if you were to somehow manage to track down all of the missing parts, you'd end up spending more than what it would be worth on the current market for a loose/complete sample....
