  1. Does this movie take place before or after Morgan Freeman helps Kevin Costner go to England?

    I think bad guys not selling well is a decades old myth. I'm going to assume that Japanese parents buy their kids toys the same way North American parents do with their kids. You buy them the most popular character (usually a good guy) and refuse to buy them a 2nd one because of the high price tag. Adult collectors have the interest and the to actual collect them all (including the bad guys). As to why they aren't fly off the shelves in Japan could it be that even Japanese collectors prefer to order online as well? I can visit my big box stores and comic book shops for domestic toy but often it is less of a hassle to just buy it online.
  3. So Indy is teaming up again with Short-Round to save China from renegade Russian agents? The Russians are of course the rest of the Goonies who traveled back in time to stop Short-Round.

    We all skipped the VF-1 because we all wanted get Regult first. If I couldn't get a Regult I would be stuck with another VF-1 in a different scale. I love the VF-1 but a collection needs to have some variety. Current prices for 2nd hand VF-1 are too high. I'm just going to wait for the next VF-1 preorder.

    It's in America. Crossing my figures it arrives in my mail box Saturday.
  6. Will this movie take place in the 1960's? Maybe the movie has him battling old Nazi scientists hiding in the South America trying to bring Zombie Hitler back to life and preventing Zombie Hitler from being the first man to step on the Moon.
  7. A related off topic post, I also take pictures of people that aren't in costume. I'll offer free pictures to local actors and models whenever I want to test out a technique or some piece of equipment I just bought. I'm proud when they decide to use what I considered to just be simple a test image for their online profile or even as their official photo on their talent agent's page. Today I saw one of these pictures reposted. I'm looking at a picture that I took and reading the text below that says he's dead. Possibly taken his own life. Only met the guy once a few months ago. Seemed like you and me. Never thought I would be seeing a picture I took being used to announce news like this.

    My Regult's was moved to some main post office in Japan 3 days ago and nothing new since.
  9. How can food be afraid of being cut apart and eaten when it already went halfway through that process? Baby Carrots start off at regular carrots that are cut down to size. They already experienced some of this torture. Why is this new to them? I want some real world realism in my movies about talking food.

    I did it! I just preordered the Monster from Ami-Ami. What a way to start collecting Macross Toys again. I have a preorder for the Glaug & Monster. My Regult is in the mail. Shame there's no at near original retail VF-1 available. What got my interest in this line was bad guy mecha to go along with hero mecha. I passed on getting a VF-1 because I wanted to make sure I had a Regult first. Now I have to the end of July to sell some of my older stuff.

    Can't loose joints be fixed with a thin layer of clear nail polish? I heard that works for some toys.

    Days after placing a pre-order for the Glaug the same store increased the price for new preorders. My invoice still list the lower price. When they ask for payment they better not change the price on me.
  13. Cars people. You're talking about cars. Let's keep things civil. It isn't like you're debating something important like fictional superiority of one cartoon robot over another cartoon robot.

    I don't think people paid that much attention to this line when it came out years ago. Give us enemy mecha and people start getting very interested.

    My Regult is now in some Japanese post office.

    I lurk this thread but there's so much hype it is easy to loose track. I really want that Monster but it is just too much with shipping.

    Well I bought a Regult and pre-order a Glaug. Been a while since I bought some Macross Toys as the prices of Yamato/Arcadia just went up too high. This toy-line is actually offering villain mecha! How can I pass on that? I'll of course be forced now to pick up at least one good guy mecha. Is there a release date lineup for this line?

    Tried to pick one off of ebay using the buy it now or best offer. They were only willing to knock off less than $3 off the price. I passed.
  19. I'm amazed that none of those bullets from all those military rifles were able to go through the walls. I read spoilers from the comic's wiki. Is doesn't end well. My guess is that

    I even realized that Milia was considered a dwarf among Zentradi and what a sexy one too.
  21. Can you please change your title so it isn't vague or click bait sounding?

    If you disassemble the Matchbox figure will he fit inside? Just stick in the upper half of his body.
