  1. Well the good news is, is that Tony of chipmungmung just replied to say that it was sold out and that was why it was removed, but he'll order some more and then relist it. So I'm happy with the quick response, and at least it was what i was hoping it was, which was just a sell out. I replied to confirm its release date as well, which I think was August but we'll see.
  2. I think he meant its the vf-25 alto version you were liking? or the vf-29 durandel version perhaps? vf as opposed to yf is all..thats all I'm sure =-)
  3. Will do. At least the option is there for paypal for 30-40 days, but I'll wait for a response before I cancel the order. I really liked the look of that kit so it'll be disappointing if its not going to be made !
  4. no,.. no its not. I just emailed them, I'm hoping its a case of ' we sold out of all preorder slots, therefore removed it from purchasing' or something... otherwise 'paypal, please cancel' is next on the agenda! *fingers crossed*
  5. damn.. thats cool! Now I want one LOL. also nabbed one of those arcees on ebay, so I'm keenly looking forward to it getting here. might have to nab that g1esque bb though, thats all kinds of win! Are those guys good to order from ie no probs on such a long time away preorder ?
  6. I will be a very sad panda if there ends up not being a way to get this shipped to Australia... I'm hanging out for HLJ as well to pull out a magic wand and make it happen! .........
  7. ah thanks, poor ol arcee and her dainty feet, its always an issue lol. but cool, I'll try and find one for a decent price then me thinks! really like hegemon megs, the plastic seems like it could have been better quality, but both modes are fantastic and I would look forward to a Hardhead if one was made, and I keep looking for a pre order option for rollbar but non have popped up.
  8. ahh, that was one that i had seen that did seem nice looking, but didn't it have issues with floppyness or something ? As for the underside, I dont mind, its not like I'll have her posed 'post accident' on the side of the road or anything hehe.
  9. definitely is delays and lag on the new system, but I'm hopeful that its only the teething issues of it, and not how it will be from now on. It was only just recently that things like cancelling and adding seemed to happen in real time, instead of a day's delay. I hope it gets back to that speed. Bit of a downside, is that you can only see shipping if you can add the item to a cart, which wont help for sold out items or backordered items. I sent an email inquiring about that, as well as asking if the option to 'pre pay' would be viable, in case some months will be heavy expense, being able to spread it out would be great. overall I like that the option to Pile of Loot is here finally!
  10. Broadside looks pretty neat indeed! I'm keen to see his colours...! I just got the maketoys giant and its just too much awesome it makes my eyes bleed, really fun to transform and pose, its a great g1 feel, and coupled with hegemon megatron and 2 of the insecticons I scored on sale, I've been loving the 3rd parties a lot more than anything official! (that will change when december hits and soundwave/sideswipe/red alert become available though hehe) I did get that arcee motorbike which is a great tformer in itself, but did anyone get one of the g1eqsue arcees and find it good? It seemed none really nailed it quality wise...? oh, and the superion jets.AWESOME MUST HAVES! And the coloured pics of Igears Rachet just oozes fantasmiconess! I wish they would show off Ironhides final version pic as well! end drooling session..
  11. I think if it comes into stock, and you don't notice it, and don't realise to 'send instock items', it sometimes disappears. I have had that happen. But also occasionly it will show 'discontinued' on the item page, but 'low stock' on your status page, as if it has one on hold for you. But yeh, its kinda confusing to say the least. I'm happy they have finally got a "Pile of Private Warehouse Loot'' =-)
  12. thanks for all the pics in one spot. I like them more than general release figures at the moment, and have the yellow maketoys version coming. That camera looks pretty neat as well! Ginrai is very cool, something a little off with the head though, kinda wished it was a little bulkier? In the comics he was a really chunky guy, so would probably have preferred a bit more meat so to speak, but still very cool!
  13. Custom gakken????
  14. Looks great, kinda reminds me of the sidescrolling arcade shooters being that its not as long in the neck. I think either way is fine, but it would look more refined to me if the neck section was longer by just a smidge Really looking forward to this !
  15. Got mine this morning, and even being careful that little piece was snapped off. So a dab of superglue later, and also added a dab to the other tab and the other leg's joint to be on the safe side. Very awesome, I keep finding little bits on it that make me 'ooh' with wonder. Something that impressed me with the refinement of transformation was the slider bar in the forearm that means no more origami folding of arms to get into fighter mode.Love this stuff ! Bring on the blazer IMO
  16. scan 1 scan 2 Just scanned in the the stickers, did it twice with one sharpened, the other not. Sorry if its not the quality required though As for heft, i love it. Not too heavy, not too light, solid where it needs to be, I would love to have a few of them as well!
  17. lol i thought it was funny!! there were times I really thought the bullet would hit !!! lmao
  18. Wow mate, thats awesome stuff! if only u could stick some little pin prick lights to shine outta the macross that would prob be overkill, but this is great stuff !
  19. You can get white background decal paper, and also clear version, so tis quite handy. Just means you have to think a bit more before choosing =-) Ive been using the Testors version on my Transformer jazz customs, and seems to do ok. Kinda wish i had a color laser, but ive heard that they aren't as good as I first thought in terms of quality. Anyone had experience with the laser decals?
  20. That is perfect ! thanks a lot for that !! =-) Thats exactly what I was hoping someone had! =-)
  21. Thanks in advance if anyone can email a good quality scan of decals used on minmay guards, that would be tops! cheers Sam
  22. Hey, thats cool! now i want one LOL. I would really liked to have nabbed the Sand version of Savage, but never see them around even on evilbay, for anything less than 3 times their original price! Whilst I like them a lot, not sure i would pay the same as I would for a 1/60 valk! Very cool though, thanks for sharing =-)
  23. Love this line as well. It started with a random Gundam 00 purchase on sale at HLJ, but seeing the FMP and weighing up between Damashii and Revoltech, Bandai won. I think they nail the mecha better, more robot, less figurish ( compared to Revoltech ) if that makes sense Wish I could find the Savages at retail price, instead of super inflated!! So Im interested to see this launcher you are talking bout though, PICS !! =-)
  24. lol, the separete piece is quite disturbing when viewed by itself from the pics on the net I have seen ! But that is the figure I was trying to find. Hopefully she will turn up around here soon then =) I'll let scream man make a proper review if he wants, and while Im no expert on them, this vehicle seems to be as accurate as you could want in a mass produced toy. - Swap out rear harpoon gun thats either small, movie accurate, or large, firing version - Swap out main cannons, again, smaller movie accurate or fat firing versions - one removeable engine cover on sides - opening air brakes - single drop down front landing foot -cockpit that has nice detail, and actually can fit figures quite well Buy it. You wont regret it ! Craig can post pics and elaborate if he wants LOL.
