    So she needs a boob lift? (I'm gonna show my immature ass out soon.) Since they're going for toon accuracy, the backpack definitely detracts from it, too much even. They need to clean that up.

    I'll wait to see more photos of the official but yeah, the 3P ones aren't bad. I would have preferred TT worked on an updated Rodimus Prime or Ultra Magnus. Maybe TT should include a boob upgrade ala Den Toys. Lol!

    I think it's due to licensing issues with Porsche that MP Jazz may never happen.

    Maybe they can still refine the elbows. Looks awkward.

    I think it's established that all of the Hikaru 1S has the 100 misprint (or not according to Bandai).
  6. crackpot
    Nice! Can we see you use that while in gerwalk pose?
  7. crackpot
    Nice. If you can, I'd like to see it side by side the MB Freedom and Strike Freedom.
  8. crackpot
    That's the MC Freedom, right? What's your feedback on that? How does it scale with the official MB Strike Freedom?

    Not really the Corona but I can imagine this is what happened to @sqidd

    Lol! Even her aunt can kick her ass any time of the day.

    The vertical stabilizers. So Milia is the OLD best girl? You ageist! Lol!
  12. crackpot
    Mirage. I don't know how she ended with the title Best Girl given that her grandmother can kick her ass anytime of the day.

    I was able to read more on it and yeah, you're correct. I'd like to get the Mumra on the 2nd wave but it seems the articulation on the arms are limited. It may be just a prototype and hopefully it's not the final product.

    I know it's an old post but is this a reissue of the previous Mattel figures? It looks like it especially Lion-O.

    Oh, and the arm attachments for the super/strike packs are different. SDFM is just slanted straight at the opening near the hands. DYRL has more angles.
  16. crackpot
    DYRL - bluish; SDFM - greenish DYRL valk - greyish; SDFM - white Arrows on the head are either yellow or black but I can't remember which one is DYRL or SDFM

    Not quite. It should be 4 then.

    Jeez... great place for the previous owner to apply that Minmay decal.

    Would love to have the whole Glory of Losers main MS lineup turn into GFFMC. Why stop at W0? I think even 3rd parties might be able to handle it except for Epyon.

    Lol! I don't know. I always used the flat part of the ring as a guide to know when the legs are aligned for fighter or battroid mode when transforming. It does lock in to the clear part that is used for the stand when setting it up while in battroid.

    A retailer has a contract with the manufacturer and gets it at bulk pricing. They not only buy the popular, best- selling items but they also have to buy the shelf warmers and not so popular items and meet a quota of units purchased from the manufacturer as well. A scalper only needs to buy a popular item at PO pricing with significantly less risk compared to a retailer. So it's not the same. The members that sold their copies at cost here got them at NY's scalper prices (Yes, NY is a damn scalper and a retailer at the same time). Sure it doesn't fill the general need of the public but they didn't get it at PO nor retail either.

    I see your point but I differentiate it when the intent of preordering is to resell it immediately for a higher price. That's scalping. The members I've seen selling their DX VF-1S here recently have been at cost plus fees. Nobody was blatantly scalping. I can imagine when the stock has dried up from YJA or online sellers months or years after and somebody here decides to sell the extra copy they supposedly kept for themselves at the current market price. I wouldn't call that scalping either.
  23. crackpot
    That's the thing. It sells out either way so what's the benefit of Bandai moving to produce on demand. Sure it helps collectors and hinders most of the scalping but hey, they're getting the money they want so why bother.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Could be a retailer. If it's that many and seems impossible, I always assume first it's a retailer and that's the allocation they received from Bandai.
