  1. Shelf space? Why don't they just sell directly thru amzn-jp instead to reach a much wider buying audience?
  2. wotafa's MP-44 video-review part-2 with his transformation-skit finally:
  3. Really, Arcadia?
  4. wotafa's so-called "first impression review" of MP-44: he didn't show his usual technical transformation process skit. maybe he'll do a part-2 to do so...
  5. SV-262 is about as disco-valk as you can get...
  6. Most of us can barely afford and barely secure a preorder nowadays. You either just camp and wait the DX valks out on release-day, or pay the scalpers' ransomware pricing. Or just give up altogether and find another hobby to afford. It is what it is.
  7. I still don't understand why teh fugazi Amz-JP direct won't sell this particular Arcadia item to a US-address. Still. Every other Arcadia item they offered are not embargoed like this SV-51 Ivanov. The amz-jp reps I talked to about it don't know and don't have a clue about the decision, either. Would've quickly cancelled my MP-44 order in favor of this item if only it ain't bizarro embargoed from Amz-jp.
  8. Yeah. 8300y is quite excessive fee for a single VF-31 DX order to be shipped to the US. Unless either you ordered more than one single item, or your shipping location is South America or Europe or even Australia?
  9. GX-87 Getter Emperor review by fellow MWF-member CharlesXavier...
  10. btw, from that distance, that 0D-PF's blue-ness seems to still be the not-anime-accurate...
  11. Welp! I'm in, even tho the battroid-mode is still fugly as heck. as well as the more recently released HMR VF-4, too, right?
  12. ~you get to burning...~ oh wait... just airing them out at this time of the year...
  13. Yeah. No idea why an M7-license is required for an Isamu valk...
  14. ready for a v2-PF from Arcadia...
  15. Takara's DMZ-01 from '06 against Hasbro Siege "Jetfire" (should be same toy as Takara SG-26) ... and some AA-size batteries...
  16. Just hope it doesn't have the exploding hips or whatever issues the original 0D release have been reported to have had...
  17. Received Hasbro's Siege-line Skyfire... Quite derpy in whatever Hasbro calls it in armored-mode thingy...
  18. just saw this posted over at hobbylog... https://twitter.com/Masaki_Plus/status/1149935334018260992/photo/1
  19. Ok. Assembled one of mine earlier. It's an ok improvement over the Yammie. Especially the new storage-compartment to store stuff. Fwiw, this Arcadia Launch-Arm does not include the previous baggy of various adapters that came with the original Yamato Launch-Arms. Some pics. Didn't have any of my Strikes available, so I grab my Hikkie-1J instead: Oh, this is the only adapter that came with this Launch-Arm, and it seems to be specific for use with the Arcadia VF-Zero's humongous valk-mode adapter:
  20. Wonder how much it'll be this time. Assuming it'll have actual anime-correct colors this time, of course. At any rate, finally got my launch-arms from DHL. Reckon Genie helped...
  21. Well, yes to both, and more. Let's put this way: ActicGears: -- toys -- you can abuse it. -- tiny/small -- no clicks. -- no springs on ballistic-punch effect -- pilots are not articulated (most are not even painted) -- cockpits are not detailed. -- relatively alot lot cheaper than the DMZs. DMZs: -- collectible. -- have delicate parts that may easily break (tummy handle on the DMZ-01, especially) -- nice paint and weathering details. -- detailed cockpit -- spring-loaded ballistic punch -- lots of clicks -- articulated Micro-Man pilots/figures. -- can be quite expensive. That said, DMZ-01 has alot of issues regarding fit and quality stuff since it was the first iteration. It can be a pain to handle. It does really live up to the junkyard-dog feature from the tv-show, fwiw. Subsequent DMZs (starting with dmz-02) are all comparatively better in fit and quality stuff, and more enjoyable to handle than dmz-01. Fwiw, I think the DMZ-01 is fine as it is despite the issues, but I personally wouldn't get a DMZ-01 for more than 8000y. I think Jenius has an old written review for the DMZ line: http://anymoon.com/blog/?p=5915 However, I'm not sure if he has an actual yt-review for the various DMZ 'dogs, but he does have the DMZ Red Shoulder Custom Parts yt-video. Those RSC missile-parts require lots of Future polish to keep in place, btw. Browse YT for other video-reviews to have a better gauge on 'em.
