  1. You're hoping for a full set of Force Witch Coven figures? But seriously...this is why the quality of the shows don't really matter....people will still collect the ships and figures from the shows.... It reminds me of the Macross franchise....I personally have not cared much for most of it past M+...but I really like Kawamori's continuos evolution of the original VF-1...so I still buy the PT versions of VF's that are released for each new show regardless of how unwatchable they are to me....lol
  2. I think these shows keep drawing eyeballs to their parks, that's all that really matters to Disney....wether the shows are good or bad doesn't matter to the throngs of people that still support Disney via their vacation/experience dollars...D+ just keeps all things Disney in the public consciousness...
  3. Was the "Plo Koon" Jedi also listed as such in the credits? I never bother with them... Anyways...I haven't rewatched the episode but was he part of the Jedi "posse" dispatched to arrest the "bad" twin? If so that would make it harder to say that the Sith was not seen for a "millenia"...and since he was actually a witness...that would be harder to explain than Ki Adi Mundi..... *edit* not Plo Koon: https://tvovermind.com/the-acolyte-introduces-new-kel-dor-jedi-and-revives-ki-adi-mundi/ I guess...just like in TROS...."somehow" these events are going to be swept under the rug or they will determine that the "Sith" guy was just a wanna-be....from the Jedi's certain point of view....which basically translates to the guy being determined to be a rogue jedi because they are not willing to admit the possibility that they did not eliminate the Sith.... Of course...it could also be that he is not a Sith afterall...and just another of those Force users that the Jedi seem to want to outlaw...but still being manipulated by the still hidden Darth Plaguis or whoever is the actual Sith master lurking around during this time... Perhaps the Asian guy is the Acolyte who was given the task of killing Jedi w/o a weapon and decides to go about the task by using Mae? Being adept at manipulation and lies would be a good skillset to possess for anyone wanting to be a Sithlord...the show would have been long over if the Jedi had read his mind back when they first encountered him...
  4. If fully articulated....that should be a great figure....at long last we'll finally have a proper, fully painted and assembled Zentran fig.....at this point I'll be OK with a separate static pilot figure in a smaller size....
  5. Maybe it's the angle but the legs in these pics look slimmer than the ones shown in the latest video....
  6. Anyone still need a Super O? https://www.yoyakunow.com/en/robots/20787-dx-chogokin-vt-1-super-ostrich.html
  7. Episode 4 was the first one I actually enjoyed and was left wanting more...dang So... ....anyway....best episode so far....hope it stays clear of anymore singing witches!
  8. I don't think they are going out of business...yet Right now....assuming they get the regults and missile accessories produced...I'm just on the hook for the Hikaru GBP....at this point I don't care if they go back on their promise of a "free" VF-1J...
  9. At this point not too worried about the money spent...more on the merch being delivered....it started out looking pretty good imo....but now it just looks too chunky...at one point it seemed they had reverted to the thinner legs...but if this last video shows the finished product I am not impressed....I have nothing else to do at this point except wait until I can see them in-hand...
  10. That seems like a lot of ground clearance....want to see if the gunpod drags
  11. Guess making PT toys ain't easy.... Still looking forward to having one in-hand...
  12. https://m.facebook.com/kitzconcept/ New video up....guess they went with the thicc legs afterall....and still no sign of the gluu-ger fig....
  13. Just bought a VF-1J that showed up on three zero's site yesterday....wouldn't be surprised to receive it before my KC Regult...
  14. Nope...They usually update the tracking via Paypal for me
  15. Went on the Three Zero site and there was 1 available....placed the order....hope it wasn't a site glitch or worse...a return! Shipping was $17.99...
  16. I don't have facebook...but if I did I would post that Pic on kc's Facebook page...lol
  17. Assuming the VF-1J is decent, I think I will purchase the VF-1S straight from the source... But seriously, Kitz Concept is robbing customers with their outragous shipping charges
  18. That's fair...I should have just ordered straight from their site
  19. What was the cost to ship these directly from ThreeZero?
  20. Just finished watching the three episode premier of The Boys Season 4, it basically purged the disappointment from watching 3 episodes of The Acolyte.... The difference in quality writing, acting and just about everything else is ridiculous.....it just exposes The Acolyte for what it is....pure garbage...
  21. I noticed that to...it also had an incomplete Hong Kong address as my 'billing' address...however, when checking out the details of the invoice on Paypal, it displays my correct 'ship to' address..... I sent them an email to see if they could send me a tracking number.... This whole process just seems odd...as I posted earlier, I can't recall another time where they had not posted pics of their finished final product before getting ready to ship....it's not like we can ask for a refund at this late stage anyway if they had posted pics and there was no fig or the fig was nothing like it had been teased....For the Dana fig, I think they showed the final product on a video before shipping it out and thus revealing that it would be 2 separate figs....TBH, I'd be OK with 2 separate Zentradi static figs at this point...
  22. Still available at Kappa....for just under 309 shipped... https://www.kappahobby.com/products/dx-chogokin-yf-25s-armored-messiah-valkyrie-ozma-lee-use-revival-ver
  23. As you insinuated in a previous post, the Jedi would be able to detect deception....If so, then why would they go through with testing Mae to begin with if they could sense she wanted nothing to do with them? Or does that ability just manifests itself when the plot requires it to? When you said that you were not seeing the series abandoing logic, you could not have possibly typed that with a straight face...lol There are way too many things in the show that make no sense and are seemingly just written off or ignored for the sake of keeping the plot moving.....like how the Jedi are OK with using mind gimmicks with some, like the escaped prisoner in the first episode...but not with the Mae's accomplice to murder? C'mon.....they have him on a recording saying that the 'master' is going to be pleased or something like that....I think it was even mentioned by one of the Jedi when they busted into his shop.....of all the people to have used a Jedi mind trick on it would have been that guy!....but then maybe the mystery would have been solved I suppose....
  24. Nah....I really do not want to go down that rabbit hole of needing to 'research' the answers to the missing pieces on the webs...but I either just watched the same or a similar video of the same 'lore' that apparently covers material showcased in the books and comics...the vow apparently can be taken if you simply want to be better attuned to the Force....regardless....it apparently doesn't mean you did something bad, so it's a good 'cover' if you know you are too 'weak' to keep yourself from spilling the beans.... It's funny because I had just made a post saying that this show was going to be another entry in the Star Wars franchise that will require external 'reading' to get the whole picture straight.....feel free to keep doing your 'research' so the rest of us don't have to...I certainly do not want to waste my time again...it's among the worst things to have happened during the Disney Star Wars era...
