  1. Just noticed this, but the always-venerable and always-reliable Mike Toole (at least from old-school anime fans) recently wrote an article about VOTOMS: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/the-mike-toole-show/2019-03-11/.144186 For anybody interested in VOTOMS anime universe/legends/myths, and would like a more solid background writeup on it...
  2. heads up! OVA-1 is back on amz again for preordering: https://www.amazon.com/dp/6317740445/
  3. Dunno. It's still listed on TRS, tho, so maybe Amzn's just being jerks about it.
  4. Disc-3 stuff. The "movies" are just compressed 60-min versions of the arcs and stuff. The highlight of disc-3 was pretty much the "re-animated" op-themes using either some 1/48 ActicGears or prolly even ancient 1/24 kits... I'm a bit peeved that amz canceled my ova-1 order, so i'll prolly resurrect my acct at TRS if MaidenJapan didn't cancel their OVA-offering altogether...
  5. Damn right! I just might get Unit-02 just coz it's Asuka's, and it's also damn red. Bandai should add an SHF Asuka with it. A pirate-head SHF Asuka!
  6. Well, you say you're broke. That should be the end of any discussion about it.
  7. hory crap! They're making a Bunny Nishino! Finally? https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail?gcode=FIGURE-046766 1/4 scale 20,610y po 12/19 release Quite pricey. I reckon if it's planned, the Aya bunny will even be more nicer as well, and the Satsuki and Kozue bunnies will be even more glorious!
  8. So let me get this straight... The offer was for only one? That's a fair reasoning for somebody who missed out on the PO. However, I was rather under the impression that Slave was willing to take over multiple orders from each respective disgruntled members here? That would've been really costly, hence my "generous" comment...
  9. That was rather generous of you to offer, but I gotta ask the question of "why would you do that?" Just some personal motivation based on some sort of loyalty to an import-store in japan that you have no business links with? As such, thought I remember N-Y was not offering any refunds on it, but was trying to issue some "credits" that cannot be used on existing orders? Besides, how long was the wait? Two years or so?
  10. Nice! I reckon OVA-2 will contain the native BD-versions of PF-movie, AA, Phantom Arc, and the parallel-uni tiles Case:Irvine and Votoms Finder.
  11. Walker Galia pics at hacchaka-blog: http://blog.livedoor.jp/hacchaka/archives/52038788.html samples:
  12. yup. https://p-bandai.jp/item/item-1000132545/ &*#($&$@&(*#$**&BANDAI&$%*&#(&%#(&%#
  13. Wish UW-04 constructicons had doors and seats since Bandai's Hikaru seems to make a good scale/fit as a driver for them vs being the scaled pilot-figure for DX 1J...
  14. I reckon more of a materials-differences than engineering-differences. Iirc, the Yammies used a rather "soft plastic" materials with the Zero-line and at least, with the VF-11b. I know my old Nora felt really quite "softer" than my 1/60v2 VF-1s. Fwiw and maybe just me, but my Arcadia VF-1s actually feel quite a bit more rigid and possibly a bit more solid/stronger than my comparable old Yammies. Maybe it's due to the "pink" additive thingy...
  15. Read the review again. It's there at #4.
  16. I like the new proper coloring. Hopefully they don't reverse themselves yet again on it. The PF on it is also very much welcome plus! Considering the msrp on this is only about 6y more than the original non-pf/wrong-blue, this new 0D PF will be more justifiable. Hopefully they also have finally fixed hips-joint issue or something. Wish they add more battle-damaged as extras like we saw in the anime. Am wondering if the second-hand shops will get flooded with the non-PF/v1 when this gets officially on preorder. Regardless, CAN'T WAIT for this!
  17. Welp! So far from taghobby's collection of wonfest-spring 2019 for Arcadia... https://www.taghobby.com/archives/347288
  18. Welp! So far from taghobby's collection of wonfest-spring 2019 for Arcadia. these seems to be what 2019 is bringing us (stickers or not...) https://www.taghobby.com/archives/347288 All should have their specific MW-threads and they should have more pics posted in 'em. Also, Jenius has a wonfest-2019 blog-article with lotsa more pics about Arcadia stuff, too.
  19. Another AmJ price drop... 24,564y (japan-residents). 22,744y (non-japan residents) + 1200y (dhl-shipping to US).

    Hi-Metal R

    Hmm. Current non-Macross HMRs are strictly from the early 80's shows. fwiw, here's the HMR release-schedules table as gleaned from https://tamashii.jp/item_brand/hi-metal_r/
  21. Nope. At least with amz-jp direct. Not sure about the marketplace/3rd-party sellers, tho. Fwiw, certain Bandai (and even TakaraTomy) items are now somehow suddenly not eligible to be shipped outside of Japan from amz-jp direct.
  22. The ongoing VF-31A fiasco with N-Y doesn't quite give confidence to N-Y's "still in stock" VF-31E status... edit: N-Y has the 31E on "item not available" status now. Now it's just a matter of if they can ship/deliver the 31E on schedule to their non-japan buyers, compared to their 31A...
  23. Just saw this posted over at TFW: https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/votoms-toys-kits-pic-heavy.162454/page-9#post-16568030 b2five's offering: https://b2fiveshop.com/collections/votoms Looks ok and very nice, indeed. Hopefully they do come pre-painted and stuff. Although the 'dogs biceps looks more Shining Heresy/Pailsen Files styles than the original TV-style. 1/28, huh? Intriguing. Hopefully it gets offered by amz-jp and at the regular japan-shops. edit: uhmm, they need to do/re-do more work on Fyana...
