    given that the heavy armor vf-1j was 21420 yen from hlj, i can't see a VT-1 ressiue going for more than that. it should be less. special fast packs and a radar dome is definitely less content than the GBP armor IMO....

    so much magnus talk. i do think the MP looks better in diaclone colors....unsure if i'm willing to fork over for it. i was always sad the MP wasn't an optimus center bot with armor, and thought the mp is too blocky. i think that could have been forgiven though because it does look pretty good (despite my qualms about it being too fat) if it only had a waist swivel. such a large figure without one just looks so static. its very had work to find a pose and an angle to make magnus look dynamic. :-( meanwhile KFC's citizen and dai stack are even more oversized for MP and while cool looking are less accurate to the source material. they do however have a waist swivel and i can't tell you how big a difference that is. he can actually look like he is walking, punching etc. i semi retired my citizen stack when mp magnus came in but dai stckk i still my diaclone magnus even if he is way tall....so understandably i'm conflicted abotu thi snew delta magnus release. on the plus side i won't have to paint his eyes yellow as they got tha tright it seems!

    this is one of the most amazing voltron lions ever! can't believe its lego!! you should make more and sell them as lego art pieces or something online. i'm blown away! also how do you like the jinbao OS feral rex?

    the special box set has nice packaging but i'm sure it'll be marked up because its an exclusive..and i think NY is one of the few places that wll carry exlusives...so gonna settle for the noraml versions.

    personally i think its looks good. i am wary of how it will handle though. they specifically went with light weight of plastic vs diecast due to articulation and stability etc. lets hope it paid off. i for one and excited its coming...the price tag is high but this thing is 16" tall too and a way better value than say 3P combiners...that go for 500-600 once all the members are bought. sure each lion doesn't also tranform but in combiners...those individual ots aren' that great anyway...these lions actually look...pretty good. still toynami always gives me pause.

    CANNOT wait for that monster! woot! so much nicer looking than the macross F transformable design (which is coo in its own right but i bought it just to pretend it was this one lol). also cdjapan has shipped my regults and amiami has accepted payment....this line is about to get real fun. i feel like i need to make backgrounds in my displays now as these figures are the right size for a mini diarama

    hellire looks the coolest IMO....but IMO too cool to be inferno. haha. its like an anime cool MP of the toy. MMC's ladder is WAY short but that works for bot mode...a bot omde that does remind me more of the toon than MT's offering. also i'm not a fan of MT's ankles. XTB's is pretty nice except for the size and that swing arm in alt mode. 3 offerings...none are the "perfect" inferno for me. i'll likley end up with MMC though as bot mode take priority over alt mode for me on this one.

    wait so luke goes on preorder tonight? do we have confirmation of that anymore? usually the announcement is in advance of preorders by quite a bit, no? i need that luke

    PAK stuff is cool but almost never accurate and thats mostly on purpose i think. i'll say there dark knight trilogy stuff a while back was kinda accurate except they gave catwoman too ample of a bosom. lol. if i like the movie i'm goin mafex with this stuff.

    anyone still need a regult, feel free to PM me. i ordered a couple too many.

    man i love those turtles i don t know if if i $252 plus chipping love them though. dang. wonder if they will do shredder, rock steady and bebop (the latter 2 i'm sure will be more).
  12. Mechapilot77
    i'd be a fan of new variants too. also how about some of the schemes we got in 1/48 but never 1/60? alaska base? minmay guard?
  13. Mechapilot77
    yeah i'd love a super ostrich in my collection....would be a nice reissue if they can price it well (below whath they charged for the gbp gifset would be nice).
  14. Mechapilot77
    honestly....the 1/60 toys are just more toy. sounds obvious but when you talk about replacing one wiht the other i think it needs a reminder. the 1/60 is more toy. more size, more gimmicks, more details, more accessories, better in a lot of respects...plus there are more of them.. the HMR is a really fun like though so far. the figures are nice to hanlde..don't feel cheap (but not premium like 1/60s are) and don't take much space. don't think i'd trade one in for th oether because it offers different things....if i had to ditch one...it'd be the 1/100 line...although i'd still get theglaug and regults though.

    hmmm i maybe have seen the wheels up lik etha tin the back without seeng the rest of the pictures....guess it was a mod. if someone made a kit like that i'd buy it. its crap that we ended up with those hip panels....there is not a good reason why takara didn't do it that way.
  16. Mechapilot77
    can't find it at the moment...i saw it a week ago-ish? on my fb feed. forgot who it was that i was following linked it...some dude on weibo showed what he did.

    i need that luke, hte BS farmboy luke coming out doesn't look good at all. i also need that panther and ant man and black widow. as far as mafex...its funny. i've had the opposite experience. every figure i've gotten from some here. their vader is hands down the best 6" vader... i have the BS, SHF too as comparison. i also have their dark knight trilogy batman...and its really good. their joker is great too. its almost at the point where if i like the character i just preorder it. for me...SHF is a little up and down. some releases are awesome, some are just so so to bad. naruto for isntance....just so so. origial trilogy storm trooper...great sculpt but crap articulation for an SHF. bruce lee....awesome headsculpts and articulation but the body musculature looks odd because of the jointing (btw its way better overall than the figma even if the figma's body looks better...i was soooooo wrong about that comparison...in hahnd the SHF murders the figma) anyway SHF and mafex are the two figure lines that do the most for me recently. I've preorderd their boba fett (both) and their droid set of r2 and 3po. as a side note figma was up there but has fallen for me some partially do to their characters selection/properties and partially due to how slow they are, and the super disappointing bruce lee..
  18. Mechapilot77
    so those that opened up teh hulkbuster...is it worth it? or should i sell/scalp (its going for over retail by quite a bit) it and wait for mafex?
  19. Mechapilot77
    anyone think its odd the mistranformation of mp-27 looks better than the official transformation? I wonder what comprismises the fan transformation have. i've yet to open mine up

    i really hope this ling makes it...i mean its already given us the most wanted enemy mecha of all time fo rme...the glaug. i'd love for the monster and the destroids to bet some love too...and every vf1 varaint i care for. lol
  21. Mechapilot77
    agree but season 2 kinda wierded a lot of people out. haha...i mean does tsumogi really have to look like a ...lol
  22. Mechapilot77
    sometimes i forget how pretty that one is and feel like selling it (mins still liives misb)....but after seeing your photos...gotta keep it. hahaha
  23. Mechapilot77
    they almost need to make a jedi liam neeson i think. man....i want an old kenobi from figuarts bad...this young one sort looks like ewan mcgregor....sort of. the hairline bleed many people og is unforunate though. i'm hoping for a eissue with that problem fixed. i neve picked up darth maul because i thought the BS one was sufficient (maybe the best thouogh not my fav BS figure so far).
  24. Mechapilot77
    i keep hoping that will happen. if it doedn't i might comission a stealth, low visibilty, and woodland camo someday.
