I like the look better than most M:F fan-art. Now do some Grace stuff! (seriously, do you take requests/commissions?)

Jack Skellington is the neatest IMHO. New Asuka--is that from the "new" Eva series? Don't recognize it at all. Batman--neat, hope they expand the line beyond just the current movies. Fraulein Harley/Ivy/Batgirl would rock... Lack of human Macross figs----yeah. Zentradi in armor would be especially good---I need a Millia fig.

Sigh. You know, that really doesn't strike me as a leader-class toy. Not compared to the new Prime, or even 2007 Brawl. That's just a really big deluxe, complexity-wise. If that. Kinda like ROTF Jetfire.

The leg stripes have been grey on all previous Yamato Milias, I doubt they'd change it now.

At least the YF-19 DOES snap together quite "definitively" in fighter mode, unlike the 3D puzzle that the YF-21 is. The YF-21 is more like "averaging out all the various gaps so that none suddenly split open really wide" rather than truly getting it together.

I find Asuka(and Hwoarang) annoyingly cheap. Asuka's just a Jun replacement, and I liked Jun much better----she was the only member of the whole Mishima/Kazama group I ever used. I may try Lars now. Jun was my all-time best character for getting 10-hit combos, I knew almost all of them. I still miss that. Originally I was a Law/Jack player, but now more Law/Anna. Definitely going to learn Alisa--she's like KOS-MOS' little sister.

I'd say Lars is the new Ken, but online it seems that's Asuka's role. (that, or Hwoarang).

Egads! We need someone to sculpt up a 1/72 TV-suit sitting Milia right away. Anyone, anyone? And that could be used for a possible Milia VF-11, too.

I've seen pics of YF-21s with perfect backplates in fighter mode, lots of them.

logos--please show me the top of the plane too, when the belly plates are closed. On mine, the upper rear fuselage always "pops up" if the plates are closed fully. I know the knees are not the problem on mine. I am well aware of the "extra click and the little hole". (I have actually fully disassmbled the knees for repair, and am very familiar with their inner workings---same for the backpack). If anything I think mine's issue is actually the grey metal bar. I think once I got it fully clicked in. Every other time, it's only like 90% of the way in but will NOT go further. That or the shoulder. Though the part the nozzles are attached too, where the belly plates latch into at the rear--also always an issue. The plates often slip sideways out of position. ::edit:: Hunh. I just got this to happen, while maintaining "as good as mine gets" for the upper rear plate. (I seriously think my back plate has a mold flaw or something---it will NOT lay flush with the middle/forward section---I've got stress marks from forcing it)

That's what I'm saying--you can close them, but you can't make them seamless/flush. If anyone can (while NOT popping the rear fuselage apart on top) please post pics.

No pic of Milia herself? Did Yamato actually sculpt up a female TV-style pilot? Etc etc.

In the rare occasions the belly plates come together at all, I've never seen them hold without a gap for more than about 2 secs. Not without other parts popping out. You can either have the belly gap gone, OR have the rear fuselage fit together. Not both.

This thread has a lot more ranting than solutions, so searches aren't very productive. My YF-19 just got "floppy wing in battroid mode" syndrome, and was wondering what the suggested fix is?

If the Gun Sniper is cheaper and better-fitting than previous Kotobukiyas, I might snag it. ('twas my first Zoid ever)

How about a link/where.

Red Baron repaint of Ransack, Beachcomber repaint of whoever: http://i34.tinypic.com/288xc7l.jpg

The very few gamestops that have a copy want 30 bucks. And that'll be for a highly scratched, manual-less, insert-less copy. Anyways, Gaijin kindly offered to lend me his for a bit, so there's no need for further discussion.

They had an "A+ Kai". Which is basically a D with an A's cockpit, and AMRAAMs.

Correct, G1 Galvatron's toy was a better "pistol" than "cannon".

Except, frankly---his alt mode sucks. Yeah, I know, I know, most people buy MPs for the robot mode--but I don't! Due to the simple transformation you could probably engineer the legs and arms to make better treads than the G1 toy, but it still looks like some weird tripod-thing.

Any chance anyone here has Ico, and would be willing to "rent" it to me? It's nigh-impossible to find now, and I really don't want to pay $$$$$ just to play it once.

Hope you don't mind, but here's a tweaked and more monitor-friendly version: (it is kinda hard to tell what it is otherwise)

Half the reason I'm getting Tekken 6 is that it seems to have the elaborate create-a-fighter that SC 4 lacked. (SC 3 had bettter options IMHO).

Anyone picking up Tekken 6? I'll be.
