  1. News from the hobby show: We knew they were comming, the 1/1000 Gamilas fleet set. The big news is the unspecified scale Cosmo Zero! Hopefully either 1/72 or in scale with the previous EX line releases. Near the bottom of the page: http://blog.yahoo.com/cybergundam/articles/693853/index Chris
  2. This is AWESOME news for me! Chris

    DX VF-25G

    Got mine yesterday. Very nice with no issues or missing parts. It seems nice and tight with no floppiness. Really like the blue, now I need a VF-19F to go with it. Only took about a week to get here with the cheaper shipping option. Chris
  4. Haha, just edited my original post with that hypothesis as well! "In some of the battroid pictures you can make out the missiles and they are not folded up or anything. Maybe these missiles need to fold to allow for a step in the transformation and then are unfolded when the step is complete." Chris
  5. Been drooling over the pictures on yamato's site and noticed something. It looks like the conformal missiles on the main fuselage are hinged...I wonder why? None of the other missiles look like them You can see what looks like a brass pin for a hinge or something here In some of the battroid pictures you can make out the missiles and they are not folded up or anything. Maybe these missiles need to fold to allow for a step in the transformation and then are unfolded when the step is complete. Chris
  6. Just got my book. I'm very happy with it and like it a lot. Did notice that they are missing a cannon squadron in the back or in any photo's...the Bunny squadron, Skull squadrons sister squadron on the Asuka II during the events of Mac 0. The book is REALLY making me want Hasegawa to rerelease their VF-0 and SV-51 models. Chris
  7. There is a link somewhere in this thread that had a spoilerific plot description of the movie. If said description is accurate, then the hand thing is explainable. Without giving to much away: Chris

    DX VF-25G

    I'm using registered airmail for the 25G. Shipped on Oct. 1 and it as showing as arrived at JFK so hopefully not too much longer. Shipping cost me $34.54. Chris
  9. New profiles on a new Gamilon fighter...both standard and the red Ace version. http://yamato2199.net/mecha/gamirasu_air04b.html http://yamato2199.net/mecha/gamirasu_air04.html Models of all the fighters NEED to be made!! A new Gamilon BattleCruiser...I read there is speculation that this is actually an old ship that Yamato encounters. http://yamato2199.net/mecha/gamirasu_sn06.html Other character profile updates are also on the 2199 site. Love this picture of Yamato with the new "old" ship Chris
  10. Or the VF-0 Chris
  11. Wait..what?? Are you talking about the VF-22 or the VF-4? Confused on how the 21/22 came into the conversation. Chris
  12. Mine is waiting in my private warehouse at hlj until another item comes in stock so i really appreciate the info. That tomcat looks awesome....would make a really cool custom. Chris

    DX VF-25G

    Shipped from NY as well.
  14. I actually liked that spoiler. Making someone too powerful can be a bad thing too. Chris
  15. Bingo! Really though, just not a huge fan of the 171's fast packs anyway, so they are not a necessity. Chris
  16. Well, I was going to cancel my preorder due to cost....but now I think I'll just cancel the YF-29 and 171 fast packs instead. This looks fantastic! Chris
  17. While I like the purple tint better, I too preferred the old yellow to the new color but it's not bad though. Biggest disappointment, for me, is that they still aren't putting skulls on the v. Stabs. Chris
  18. I like the movie too. From what I remember reaction to the movie was so so. As for models, unfortunately none where made...not even Yamato herself. Kind of sucks. Here is a fan custom that somebody made of the movie Yamato. http://www.geocities.jp/dourakuoyadi/newpage500SBY-10.htm'>http://www.geocities.jp/dourakuoyadi/newpage500SBY-10.htm Build-up here: http://www.geocities.jp/dourakuoyadi/newpage500SBY-1 Personally, I would've loved a kit of the movie Yamato and the Cosmo Tiger. The Zero was ok for me. Also liked the earth ship designs that were briefly seen at the beginning during the battle of Mars. Chris
  19. Hope they have some unboostered pictures of the SV-51 too. Chris
  20. Yeah, maybe their way of "editing" the video so they could still play it. Earlier it said it was private and couldn't be viewed, but now it's up. I agree, though, that music was a poor choice though. Chris

    DX VF-25G

    Been wondering when these would show up, just paid my NY invoice as well. Chris
  22. Don't hate it but.... Like others have said, maybe seeing it in movie with all the production values in place will help. Chris
  23. Ok video is back! That eas incredible! That was fan done? I really want to see more!! Chris
  24. Bah! Where's the video? I want to see it! Chris
