  1. That’s how I feel too for the most part. I do really like TFA, but loath TLJ. While I do see and acknowledge glaring issues with the prequels, I can still watch them and find enjoyment in them. I just can’t with TLJ. Easily the extreme bottom of my SW movie rankings. I don’t begrudge anyone’s personal tastes or preferences, though. Anywho, I still love SW and hope for a good fun movie. I liked the teaser, something I did for TFA trailers and ironically didn’t for TLJ. Chris
  2. I’ll take some comparison pictures for you this evening. IIRC, the main body is metal while the wings, antenna, weapons ect are plastic. It has a light heft to it. Not a lot, mind you, but a little. Chris
  3. On a different note I got my magnifier glasses, they are awesome! So glad I got them, I am currently building 2 1/72 Blackbird Zero’s so these will come in handy once painting starts. Chris
  4. I have it. It’s a little smaller than 1/72. Really nice with lots of options like weapons, landing gear, folded wings and nose probes 2 different stands (standard one and a catapult) and even has boarding stairs and a little Yuki to display seated like she did in an episode of 2199. I really like it, but I am a sucker for the Cosmo Zero (it’s one of my all time favorite sci-fi fighters) as for worth....we’ll I bought mine when it was released. We would always like things to be cheaper so I’m not sure I can really comment on that. I can say I’m glad I have it and would probably buy another fighter if they ever made one.....but the fact that they didn’t continue the line says a lot about how most probably felt about the price. Chris
  5. Thank You! So many people seem to not get that. Vulcans DO have emotion, they just suppress and control them. They don’t allow themselves to be governed by them. That said, I personally like Ethan’s portrayal of Spock thus far. I hope we get to see him in full Spock regalia (shaven and in his blue uniform) before the season ends. I personally hope that CBS see’s the popularity and seemingly universal praise for Mount’s Pike that they will make a Pike Enterprise show. Including Peck’s Spock and Romijin’s Number 1. Chris
  6. My eyesight is not what it use to be either. I’m 44 and am just now starting to need glasses (Always had super duper 20/15 vision) What are those called? I may need to get one. Chris
  7. Yeah, kudos for them actually making a new body type figure instead of just reusing the existing body with new armor and body glove. Chris
  8. Looks cool....if not a little too Ashoka centered. She’s a fun character and all, but MAYBE becoming a bit too significant in the era of Kenobi, Yoda, and Skywalker. Just seems a bit strange to me and I really like her too. Chris
  9. Lol, I got that shirt a few years ago. It was. $5 shirt of the day. Still wear it.
  10. Anyone get a shipping notice yet for the rerelease of the VF-1S? Chris
  11. Thanks! And yup. It’s very subtle, as I think it should be in this scale. Most noticeable in the underside picture of the “gator-head” and on the profile shot (the sides of the flight pods and the side of the ship) the wash helps to slightly darken the base coat so that I can go back and paint random panels or raised details the original base coat. This gives it one more panel variation. Chris
  12. So close to being done with my EM repaint. Just a few more details to do and touch up. Decided to name her the Battlestar Andromeda. No decals so I did my best with a pencil..
  13. Maybe they will tackle the 1/48 VF-1 series as well. I just ordered the Hikaru VF-1S + SSP bundle. Hope it is good. May get the Roy as well. Chris
  14. Man it does look great. Still want to see a side view and an underside shot too. Chris
  15. Oh my! I am so looking forward to this. The music is awesome too. Great update. Chris
  16. I don’t see any sellers that will ship outside of Japan with Amazon JP
  17. Wow this is SO much better than Bandai PO madness, as others have said. Just checked in saw all these posts...freaked that I missed out...went to Amazon.co.jp and it's still there, along with all the other stores. 19982 yen shipped via global express on Amazon. This is how ordering TOYS should be for crying out load. No insta sell out. No cart jacking. I’m sure these WILL sell out soon but within reason. Bandai, on the other hand is just leaving cash on the table by not making enough to cover demand. That Legioss looks nice, I too want to see a side view before I bite. Chris
