    The HD omnigears alone would make it worth it----the limited-poly/low-texture models of the PSX couldn't show how different they were supposed to be compared to the game's earlier gears. The omnigears were organic, "wet", sinewy, etc. The concept art etc shows it well, but it just doesn't translate. Basically, the 'standard' gears should be like Gundams, while the omigears would be more like partly-armored EVA units. Yes you do. Best story ever. (that includes all books/movies/shows). And yes, it is clearly "incomplete/rushed" for the 2nd half. But even missing a big chunk of itself, it's that good, story/music-wise. Confusing the first time though, makes a lot more sense the 2nd time through. PS---to anyone playing it the first time----you can make life a lot easier by equipping/upgrading Elly and Vierge properly. That combo can absolutely dominate the first 3/4 of the game if you know what to do and frankly save you some time in both random and boss fights.

    Hasbro also seems to have forgotten (or intentionally saved 1 cent) to paint the inner side of the foot. So it's bare light grey plastic there, not silvery. That's the back of the outer sides in tape recorder mode.

    Depends---would it have been designed by the group that did Bandai's V1 VF-25, or the renewal VF-25?

    And just in case they do make M&M as a two-pack-only-----I only want Milia, and am willing to split with someone.

    Give me a plain cardboard box, if it'll save money. Seriously, if they want a super-duper "collectors" box for the MISB guys---then make it a separate option/release at a higher price.

    They could always do a new low-vis, too. (and there's no limit to quasi-canon F-14-inspired schemes---I think just about every squadron has appeared in some way or another by now, in some magazine or book)

    Still half their asking price on Ebay (and here!). Sadly it'd be seen as a bargain at this point.

    I have little interest in what'll be the first release of the mold. But retools and repaints have me greatly intrigued. Slipstream is obvious, and you KNOW they'll use her for Botcon as soon as possible.

    It only takes once, and it ships in fighter mode, so....

    Windblade.

    I think he did right after "Two Guys, a girl, and a pizza place" personally.
  13. David Hingtgen
    Or they could start with that new Autobot fem-jet...
  14. David Hingtgen
    Many have said similar things for Slipstream, but I just don't see it. It'd take a lot more than that to make Slipstream. (or at least, an acceptable one, to me)

    They all crumble, top and bottom both.

    What anime52k8 said. Delimiter mode RUINED the YF-21. Period. It's the main reason I sold it. It was a gimmick that heavily compromised every other mode and aspect, for something nobody ever did anyways. I do NOT want floppy/open/hinged wings that'll crack or pop off in the future, just to replicate something on-screen for 18 frames of animation...

    Go! http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10153639 ::edit:: Or not. Was there when I copied link, gone by the time it was pasted!

    Armada Starscream seems kinda pointless to me. It's basically the one we already have. What's next, a new Energon Tidal Wave?

    They didn't make more MP-10's, so they seem to have little desire to make money---even after bumping up MSRP 40% it still sold out. It may have been restocked a bit from distribution centers, but there was only the one production batch.

    OK, why can't I checkout at HLJ? Been trying for several minutes. Not time-out errors. Wouldn't even accept my account info for a while (didn't blank out, said it was wrong) :;edit:: Finally. I think it was a cookies issue--they just wouldn't seem to "take" and every screen/click seemed to empty my cart and log me out. :;edit 2:: Ack, I don't think it actually did it. But don't want to order again in case they see it as trying to get multiples. Yeesh. ::edit 3:: OK there it is. Whew! (hey, I've been trying to get a renewal Alto since November of 2011, this is kinda stressful)

    That's related to my main complaint with the whole figure---there's very few "defined stops"---you never know if you're "done" moving a part, as you don't know if it's moved "all the way" and you fear breaking things if you press harder. It's always "well, I guess that's it--I think it's been moved to where it should". You just don't really know.

    They ruined a Lambo. Ricing out ANY car is bad. It's just so much worse when it's ACTUALLY a good-looking high-performance car to start with. Now it actually looks like a cheaper car a teenager may own. Just needs a few more stickers to be truly highschool-ish.

    A. This thread seriously needs to be bumped. B. *Nobody* noticed flightsuit Grace? http://felinaedeath.deviantart.com/art/Commission-Grace-O-Connor-379592693

    Keep trying that link. Unless they re-vamped their site from when they did MP-10---if the product is available, the link works. If you can't order it---it won't show or find anything. They're not big on having the product show up but say unavailable. The link and search simply won't work a lot of the times if you can't order it at the moment.

    Seacons are totally US G1. I wanted them as a kid because I saw them on TV. (Granted it was a commercial and not an episode, but really, every episode was just a glorified commercial anyways) Now, Raiden etc---those count as second-tier JP-only teams. But Piranacon is core US lineup. Just the tail end of it. (Still had black grid packaging and not gold like Monstuctor)
