  1. Why do these embedded YouTube videos suddenly crap out after a few seconds?
  2. So $43 plus fees to stream the concert?
  3. If anybody was level headed here, none of us would be buying this much toys at our respective ages. 🤣
  4. Based on recent past prices, US retail is closer to JP retail without JP consumption tax. Justice seems to be changing that trend as it is $30 or more compared to JP retail sans tax.
  5. Or it could be seen reversed where the armor is being put on by the set up.
  6. Plot twist. Max from the neck down is actually attached to the YF-29. He is an actual valk in Delta. 😛
  7. I'm not really questioning your sourcing of stock from Bandai. Bandai has history of making prototypes that take years before they come to retail and other times, they never do. Release date or retail price hasn't been set for the Sazabi. I'm not telling what one should do but the question that comes to my mind is would it be wise to pay for something under those conditions?
  8. Somebody took a nap inside.
  9. I was gonna say there aren't any Gundam pilot figuarts but apparently there are 2. Lol! Maybe if it's a mecha show, Bandai's focus is more on the mechs. Maybe Big West can license the pilots for figures with Max Factory/Goodsmile. Who knows?
  10. Seems like a catch 22 to me. Nobody buys it, why continue the line? Buy the repaints, oh they like those let's keep making them. Case in point was the Dragon Ball figuarts. Bandai was about to cancel that line since I believe it wasn't doing well in Japan. Bluefin had to convince them otherwise since it's doing well in the US region. Now, we're getting sort of exclusive Dragon Ball figuarts that don't even show up in Japan.
  11. I don't disagree about this but it feels Bandai is more focused on the Japanese market when it comes to Metal Build. Feedback coming from them will most likely be heard more than from buyers in the USA. Does Bandai own Sunset or the whole Gundam franchise?
  12. While Bandai has the final say on what gets sold in what region, Bluefin can have their input and suggest what to bring over. They're responsible for all those Dragon Ball figuarts event exclusives that make it to P-Bandai. They're doing a good job on that so why not Metal Build exclusives as well.
  13. Lol! US gets scraps for metal build. They could have gone for the Destiny Soul Red with the Soul Blue wings of light. Better yet, they could have offered the current OO Trans Am Raiser. Instead we got this lame Strike Gundam. @BluefinBrands what's the deal?
  14. "You're not taking over our family business?..." 🤣
  15. I read a comment somewhere else that Hot Toys has perfectly nailed the disappointed Asian dad look.
