I just received my Ultimate GD and I must say that this UGD is rather quite nice. Fwiw, I never own any previous GD versions. Joints are tight. Very solid figure. Mine don't seem to have the grease, paint-smell and smudge issues that yt-reviewers have noted. Quality and stability is about the same as my old Cherno, which means it seems quite very good. At least, so far. Still, it's a NECA product so just hoping nothing breaks off soon after this posting. Nice accessories and light-up feature for a US$22 mecha figure. Dunno why the batteries were already installed, but it's all good. As such, for an "Ultimate" GD version, not quite sure why it doesn't include the boat... Anyway, quick shot with my old Cherno Alpha and CT's possibly moar awesome ancestor... http://i.imgur.com/ssKlzkxl.jpg

additional HobbyJapan-mag scan pics in TagHobby... http://www.taghobby.com/1-0/1-1/不斷更新-hobby-japan-2016年11月號-玩具內容/ http://www.taghobby.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/HJ161122.jpg

Not quite sure if that's such a good idea for now, as the box-art from Arcadia might just have the wrong shade hue colors...
-
^^ Yeah. This HMR-Dougram move is much more like a long overdue love letter to FASA and the BT/MW fans from Bandai...
-
Alrighty! Thought somebody already made one, but here it goes... Apparently, Bandai's expanding the HM-R line to non-Macross mecha by offering the Dougram mechas under it, per Toysdaily post and mag-scan: 2017年2月 [HI-METAL R] 太陽之牙 DOUGRAM - 日系英雄∕機械人 - Toysdaily 玩具日報 - Powered by Discuz! Details from the mag states: 2/2017 16cm (160mm) MSRP is 12800y ABS, POM So awesome! Hope the scaling will be a bit nicer than the 1/72 Maxfactory and the old Revoltechs with the HM-R Macross mecha. Macross mechas first, now Dougram mecha soon. Maybe VOTOMS,too? BRING IT, BANDAI!!!

Nope. Not SHF. Hi-Metal R - Dougram http://toysdaily.com/discuz/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=251924&extra=page%3D1&page=1 http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=41926&page=242#entry1303456 Even written so in your pic, actually...

Not sure why you're being a negative nancy on this line. There's a bunch of both Gundam and non-Gundam mechas that don't sell well (or at all) in their Robot Spirits/Robot Damashii line, but that line is very far from dead. Not to mention Bandai's SRC line that has a bunch of non-Mazinger robots that ain't been selling well, yet the SRC is still chugging along.

Heck YEAH!!!

Nice! Ordered thru hlj. Hopefully it won't need much (if any) painting.

Macross Δ (Delta) - Mission 25 - READ 1st POST
treatment replied to azrael's topic in Movies and TV Series
meh! one-cour, two-cour, schmour! it ain't a valid excuse at all. try not to use it as some sort of an explanation of the fail. iirc, SDF-TV had a more precarious series-survivability (13 to 26 to 48 to 36 or whatever), yet it kept the series moar interesting and moar epic despite and in spite of the tv-stations and producers' capricious episode-counts whims. -
Yamato SV-51 Nora or VF-0A Arcadia,Which one should i get first?
treatment replied to thetrollphysicist's topic in Toys
Forget about getting either one. Pass on them both. Maybe Arcadia will re-do the 0A and the SV-51 with better materials and better QC later on. If not, then you're still better off not getting either. Just go try to get the Arcadia 0S instead. -

Maybe it's simply just a(nother) big plot hole by the geniuses who write and screenplay Delta anime... -
Has Mr.K twatted anything about the 1/3000 SDF-1? Some of you that follows him maybe should ask him about it.

http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-022735 Nice, but a bit misproportioned due to those huge pair of ribbons... 1/4 @430mm 02/2017
-
I'm a bit more optimistic now that Arcadia would not double the price of the 1/3000 SDF-1. If Arcadia ever really reissue it. Just mainly due to the recent msrp of the VF-4G reissue.
-
I'm expecting at least 20k-yen for each. After po-discounts. We can all fervently wish we can get each at 15k-yen on po, at least...
-
I'm passing on this Milia, and contemplating really hard on dropping this whole line altogether. I think the msrp on this line is overpriced. I don't really like playing this Bandai game of TWE'ing certain mainline figures of the line to get full msrp on 'em, and paying up front for it. It's fine if it's something like the Alaska-valks or some other rare valks, but Roy and now Milia? Pfft! I'll prolly just stick with the SOCs instead.
-
Coz p-bandai stuff are not sold at regular distribution-channels/wholesalers like hlj, ami, and hs. N-Y, AE, and the others who procure p-bandai stuff are most likely just directly buying the stuff individually (via their regular footmen or sekrit agents at bandai-events). Then just re-sell it for moar profits to dirty gaijins like us that likes to import...

My wallet's ready for the Super M&M''s reissue, Arcadia edition. It'll prolly be moar ready if they don't try to bundle it together for the ultimate sticker-shock...

Wait, wait, wait. You're kinda misunderstanding this a bit. PO madness is when you get _unwillingly_ cart-jacked and stuff. Lotsa fun. This, however, is P-Bandai shenanigans madness. It is where you _willingly_ get jacked at full msrp for the figure coz of no usual po-discounts being offered, add another 10% (at least) on the msrp for the proxy-buyer fees, and then you pay up front. With possibly only EMS or Fedex options for shipping-fees. It's a little different. And not much that fun to engage in...
-
9/16 on p-bandai. if you have a pbandai-account or something. full msrp+shipping-fees, if you do. otherwise, you'll either go thru some middle-man or N-Y. not sure how much scalpermiddleman-fees they'll add to the msrp. just hope that ae, hlj or cdj gets some of it.
