  1. That'd be Mylene's -1J. (and nobody here wants a MAXL more than me--that's what I voted for, with the -3000 getting the "secondary" vote)
  2. How well would Milia -1J's sell if they were pink? (my beef is with the game---they're the ones who should have known not to use pastel colors on the planes!) I'd be all up for a "corrected" VF-3000 M&M scheme. I assume the game was wrong, and that M&M's VF-3000's were "really" red and blue like their other valks.
  3. The VF-11's did look awesome, because they were actually red and blue. The VF-3000's were pink and periwinkle however... Idealized versions of the M3 schemes look good in most cases (not the VF-4 however). But the ACTUAL M3 valk appearances look poor in most cases.
  4. Very much so. What happened to the guy who made the VF-9's wings turn into the CHEST?
  5. I noticed it long ago. "green plastic" is enough to make me not buy it no matter the source/price. Dinobots have SMOKE clear plastic, not "neon green" clear plastic.
  6. While I love the VF-3000 design, what schemes are there? I think I've only seen the M3 ones. (I am still amazed by how many not-cool Max and Milia schemes exist in that game--you've gotta try hard to make M&M valks NOT look cool, but they managed several times)
  7. PS--how would a destroid be a "PT" toy?
  8. This would work much better as a multi-choice poll.
  9. Came in to say "Firefox" but saw I was beaten...
  10. Gotta be the old blue. Because if it isn't, then it's 99% the same as the old one, and not anywhere near what it needed to be changed to.
  11. 2 fewer tailfins certainly helped save weight and drag...
  12. Looking at the Delorean---they really need to go with "warm" white LED's for the headlights. Pretty sure it didn't have HID's... Couldn't find any movie stills easily, but assuming both this replica and the movie car remained stock there:
  13. THAT. It's pretty much the defining "shared experience" of a valk-fan nowadays.
  14. The numerous ridges make many think it was designed by Cassy. (who is a free-lance designer who has worked for several 3P companies---MMC, Igear, KFC, etc----anything with a lot of ridges, was probably his work at some point)
  15. They're gonna be ginormous---here's the combiner foot: And here's their Sludge sorta-near TFC's not-Predaking (no, not a single member, that's the combined form) Interestingly, combiners from TFC, MMC, and WB have all showed up in the background of this photo set---so they may be "checking out the competition" and hopefully picking out the best bits, correcting errors, etc.
  16. Hopefully! Then they'll be easier to get! (it's so very sad yet so very true, that the "limited" made-to-order-only stuff from Bandai, is 10x easier to get than "mass retail" valks)
  17. Granted, it's not as bad as the 30th Ann YF-29. (I think it's because white-on-white vs white-on-DYRL-very very light grey)
  18. That's the best-looking set of launchers for them IMHO, but I've been trying to find someone to split a set with. I *only* want the red ones, and am not going to buy the whole set just for them.
  19. Nope! I know I wasn't the only one to "ding" it a bit during the first transformation. It is WAY too easy to get the "forward gullet" piece to position itself incorrectly in many different ways. And the plastic gets so thin there that even tiny bumps will "round off" the edges and scrape some paint.
