  1. Hellooooooo, Saber! http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-004065 The burnt train or skirt thingy is totally unnecessary, imo.
  2. MP-19 Smokey gets directed by a Cop-bot other than Prowl...
  3. I dunno, mang. I don't see any of the Force Five robots on the list quoted by Mr.March. I mean, you know, those so-called "JAPANIMATION" vhs-tapes in the local mom-n-pop rental-shops, blockbuster and suncoast back in 90's. In English! Couldn't really miss them. They were usually like next to Macross Plus or Ninja Scroll or Ghost in the Shell shelves, iirc. So, with that, Sage's "list" is still a FAIL.
  4. Considering Plus' comedy engrish-subs, wonder what and how many kinds of official engrish-shenanigans BandaiVisual and/or BigWest had concocted this time for a Macross-title...
  5. moar kaiser pics! Kaiser's about as tall as SOC Minerva. fwiw, Kaiser's heavy, but not as heavy as SRC-Daiguard: and some Shocker Combatman shenanigans... Shocker Combatman: I got a knife! Mazinkaiser: That's not a knife. Mazinkaiser: Say hello to my little friend... Shocker Combatman: ...
  6. I highly recommend that y'all should wait and refrain from posting pics until after skullmilitia post his own pics of his Arcadia-Focker.
  7. YES!!! Official pics at http://www.criterion.com/current/posts/2973-opening-zatoichi-the-blind-swordsman
  8. Dai-Guard's rocket-punch! (1/4) (2/4) (3/4) (4/4)

  11. been awhile since I posted some TFs...
  12. welp! pics of my latest shiny... As you can tell, the only differences from the regular Shin are the shiny chrome, the severed Energer-head instead of Garada, and the regular Scrander. Don't really get why Bandai didn't bother to include the missile-trails as a hidden surprise. The plastic tray still got plenty of space to spare. Anyway, I got it about $30 over msrp, plus about $20 shipping. Yeah, yeah, I know I willingly got jacked for it. Sheesh! F*ckin expensive hobby...
  13. Sure, shipping from HLJ-PW for both Prowl and Bluestreak costs me only around $12 paypal (1096y, iirc). But again, it still ain't 1:1 as you've already got pre-order discounts instead of MSRP. Incidentally, how much did you guys actually paid Amazon.jp 3rd-parties for the pile-drivers and stuff since Amazon.jp disallows direct US-sales on toys? Did you guys have to go thru a proxy-service? How much did the proxy-service charged you? I don't buy from BBTS so I'm not sure how much they jack up their actual pricing.
  14. I don't remember seeing 12T specifically at either HLJ or Ami at all. That said, even if you disregard scalper-pricing, you still need to figure in shipping and other fees. Takara-pricing is only for Japan and Hasbro-Asia pricing is only for Hasbro-Asia territories. It is quite wrong to try to equate either pricing to actual US-retail pricing just by basing it on existing exchange-rates. The only item near or close to 1:1 pricing was MP-13. Even that was really not 1:1, as we got the other cassettes as freebies in the US-pricing. Therefore, you must still add at least the price of shipping (EMS is about +US$20 or SAL which is about +US$12 to +US$15) to the actual pricing of either Takara-Japan or Hasbro-Asia pricing when trying to come up with equivalent US-retail pricing for non-US items. Heck! SAL is about US$17-US$20 as of right now and EMS is about US$22-US$25, and Paypal's current exchange-rate is still US$1 is 0.96y. And that's only based on using Japan-shipping fees. Not sure how much HK/TW-shipping fees/costs nowadays.
  15. Actually, that's only true if there ever was a US retail-release. You need to factor in shipping and other shenanigans such as actual availability and scalper-pricing.
  16. From TAMASHII NATION 2013 Here's the upcoming SOC-Trider's size/scaling with/against the other upcoming SOC re-releases. So, he's going to be big. Much bigger than gx-62 Daiguard.
  17. Super Red's hitting on Minerva...
