    That'd be UN Spacy.

    This is the "youngest" thread I could find that's even slightly relevant, but I just had to post this: Green Ranger=best ranger.

    Everything I've read indicate it's one of the best of all, and better than the MG in some ways. I'm very tempted, though I had planned for most all my Unicorn stuff to be HG/MG kits, not RD's. (though the gold trim pretty much meant "no Sinanju kit for me") Really, I need to see Sinanju animated more before I commit to having one in any form. So far it's been quite absent lately in the OVA. I assume it'll show up again. (no spoilers please)

    It was Noin's main suit. That's why I want one. Also I'll need some for Shenlong to battle. Anyways--adding the option set makes the Leo go from about the cheapest to the most expensive RD (of the ones I'd like to own). But I really want the shield. (seriously Bandai--no SHIELD? I don't need the Dober gun or shoulder cannons, those were secondary--but the shield is pretty standard equipment---it'd be like making Sinanju's shield optional or something)

    "For those who care about the fins being parallel". It's nice to know you remembered.

    After some googling, where 95% of the uses of the word were from Gunpla forums asking "WTF is a tetron decal", or translations of Gundam kit descriptions using the word, I believe: "tetron" may be the specific term to mean "normal" clear-backed stickers. Like, most every Yamato valk ever has a large sheet of "tetron" stickers. They are not foil-backed. They are not dry transfers. They are not water-slides. They are "tetron". Maybe it's what the Japanese call "peel and stick" stickers that aren't printed on mylar/foil. But there's not a single reference as to what the term actually means/describes as far as I can tell. It's certainly not a common term, nor likely the main one used by most people for whatever it is describing.

    I'm going to get a Leo but don't want to buy the whole option set. Anyone willing to sell off just a piece or two?
  8. David Hingtgen
    Takara did something very similar on the first Masterpiece Optimus Prime, on the lower legs. They were much larger slats/legs though, the mechanism would have to be much smaller for a valk.

    I need more than just a game appearance to pony up the cash for a DX. Though, I mean, I won't be able to get one anyways, becuase they'll ship 8 to HLJ and 4 to Ami-Ami, and that'll be it. I still need a v2 Alto -25F...

    Panzer Dragoon was mostly "missions on rails with lock-on weapons" and it was an excellent series and could be very challenging.

    When's the optimal time to start clicking refresh at HLJ?
  12. David Hingtgen
    They are also doing Noin's greenish one. If anything is exclusive it'll be hers.
  13. David Hingtgen
    And who's reputable enough that I shouldn't worry about paying up-front?
  14. David Hingtgen
    Is this the first Aires ANYTHING? I mean, the Leo at least had a resin kit and the old MSIA. But Aires? http://gundamguy.blo...-oz-custom.html

    Bandai didn't have any problems supply as many 30th anniversary Gundams as people wanted...

    The day after Xmas. What's the only deluxe-class toy at my local Target? A peg full of just Prime Vehicons. (Voyagers was a mix of Prime Primes and Thundertrons)

    Not often you get real footage of a helicopter blowing apart in mid-air: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=deb_1356547345 Ace Combat games, take note.

    Wow. Vaan's almost non-existent "presence" is probably my main beef with the game. Second would be Penelo---you could completely erase her and it'd make NO difference. If Basch had been the main, it'd probably be one of the all-time greats in the series (with a few additional tweaks).
  19. David Hingtgen
    Exactly. Can't imagine how an AMRAAM can compete with reaction/overtech etc. The ASS-1 pretty much made everything instantly obsolete. VF-0 used it, and presumably early VF-1 squadrons, but I can't imagine anything from the VF-4 and later ever ever used them. The AMRAAM actually has a weaker warhead than the Sparrow AFAIK---I doubt it could even scratch the paint on a modern valkyrie.
  20. David Hingtgen
    If the VF-171EX armor can include new wings, then the VF-27 armor can include new shoulders.
  21. David Hingtgen
    Basch would have also been better than Vaan as the main.
  22. David Hingtgen
    I was mainly thinking of RID's "own" molds----Prime and Magnus are still among my all-time faves. And Megatron/Gigatron. Rail Racer. Mach Alert/Prowl. Build Team.
  23. David Hingtgen
    Same here. Zell and Selphie are only there if the game forces it. And 4! I got my entire party to level 99 on the original SNES version, loved it that much. I think I'm one of the few who liked 13 more than 12. Never replayed either, but 12 seemed "harder to finish" to me. (as in, desire to keep going to see how it ends) I thought 12 had better "dungeons" though.
  24. David Hingtgen
    I wonder about "number of purchasers vs numbers purchased"---sure, adult fans may be a much smaller percentage than kids, but most kids move on to the "next big thing" every year, while adult fans can easily buy for over a decade. Even if it's a 10 to 1 ratio for kids to adults, that'd make collectors buy just as much product as kids, on a long-term basis.

    AMRAAMs? Really? 70 years after their introduction? What's with the VF-0 load-out?
