  1. Amazon.jp quickly sold out of pre-order stock, but there are other third-party Marketplace sellers taking orders at similar prices... ...although whether they'll ship Stateside (and what shipping will cost) depends on the seller, of course.
  2. A picture is worth a thousand-character text string.
  3. Well, I certainly wasn't expecting to be the first -- I mean, members posting from Tokyo have had the VF-1S for four days already, and Amazon only just got around to delivering mine -- but here you are: Puts the ol' Yammie to shame, of course... ...but I do think the tempo is a little overdone. I especially hate the fruity font Tenjin-san chose for the pilot designations. At a glance, it always reads as Lieutenant Tokyo's plane. The cockpit screen could've used a little color, I think... but it's better than nothing, right? I love all the ways you can style the hair. Again, puts my old Yamato to shame, in more ways than I care to mention.
  4. It's true! Sentinel's barely opened pre-orders, and they've already delayed from July to August!
  5. Oh, that's just Wotafa's habit. He snorts a line of coke before opening every new toy.
  6. The subject of your review is usually the figure in the center, so I was a little confused about which figure you were talking about here...
  7. I'd welcome an Into the Spiderverse-style CGI adaptation of The Maxx, but live-action? Hell no.
  8. Hell yes. So much squandered potential from Star Trek: Discovery's second season.
  9. Not at all. I'm happy to contribute to Scorched Earth Toys however I can.
  10. Mine are pretty beat-up, but I can photograph them properly if they'd be of any use...
  11. Stig's original Tread didn't survive re-entry. The Tread that featured most prominently in the series was from the 7th Mars Division, salvaged from Point K (in ep.10).
  12. I'm a huge fan of Tarantino's, and a lifelong, die-hard Star Trek fan, but "Quentin Tarantino's Star Trek" may be the stupidest idea I've ever heard of.
  13. Still a better sequel than The Last Jedi. Beyond managed to course-correct... slightly.
  14. Arcadia's original Garland suffered significant delays -- a full eleven months from pre-order to release, actually -- but it turned out to be one of the finest toys I've ever handled. Delays for the proto-Garland probably indicate the same exacting level of quality control. Still, for what is basically a repaint with some minor retooling, I'm surprised it's taking so long...
  15. The opposite, actually... The 1:32 came first, and then the 1:48 Buster was based on that. However, as jenius accurately points out, the Moscato scale is not consistent with officially-published stats, because... they didn't make any sense, really.
  16. Moscato Hobby's 1:48 "Buster" Legioss is slightly larger than the ET Legioss... and nobody understands Mospeada scale better than Captain America.
  17. I couldn't agree more. Given the apparent size of Sentinel's offering, I expect our existing Aoshima Treads (or Toynami Betas) will scale very well with this new Legioss.
  18. Sentinel is claiming 1:48, which would suggest they're as large as the Evolution Toys Legioss... when in fact, they're as small as the Toynami Alphas, making them closer to 1:60.
  19. Not according to Amazon.jp...
  20. Amazon.jp says it's already in stock, and can be delivered Wednesday.
  21. My God, that's an absurdly large head.
