    Yes, I am in for a stand from Yeti!

    For those who don't have the time or inclination to rewatch all the films, I think this video sums it all up very nicely.

    Hi-Metal R

    Almost bought it, but decided on the first release VF-1J Hikaru for 8000 yen. One of the "Hero" valk I didn't have in the Hi-Metal line (jumped into the line after the VF-1S Focker released). I needed a Hi Metal valk to go with the FEXTHOBBY armor I preordered.

    Just paid my Nippon-Yasan bill for this bad boy. Now my wallet is $500+ lighter. I missed this the first time around and seeing the announcement for the Premium Finish this time around, got in a pre-order on day one. Time to reorganize the display for this one!

    Looks cool, I am interested.

    All gone at CDJapan. I tried to order one there and cancel my Hobbysearch preorder, but no dice. I still have my Hobbysearch preorder, so it's all good, a couple bucks.

    Nice, 5pm Guam time for me. Still have to set a couple alarms reminders just in case I forget.

    So a UPS 747 comes to Guam every Sunday to deliver packages and mail. Looks like this guy broke down as it was here for like a week. Took a cool picture of what looks like a Kunming airlines B737-700, then I think a Shanghai Airlines B737-MAX, and the UPS 747-400. Just past the 747, you can see a United 737-800 peeking out. These 737s are ferrying from the Boeing plant to China almost weekly.

    No, I didn't get a chance. The tanker was only here for a couple days. It was probably prepping to leave when I took the pictures as it was gone the next day. I'm not surprised they didn't stay too long as Continental used to have B767s based out of Guam and the KC-46 is derived from the B767.

    Some crappy pics I took of the KC-46 that came to Guam last week. They came out to do some humidity testing and flew circles in our airspace for a couple hours (no phallus patterns that I could tell). One picture shows a Hainan Airlines B737-800 parked next to the KC-46. We see alot of ferry flights come through Guam. Almost weekly new B737-800s are making their way across the ocean from Seattle to China.

    Definitely look into the BB7 and Yes Model seekers. Those are the companies that make the best seeker knockoffs. Avoid the Kubianbao Starscream, their seeker is just not as nice as the BB7 and Yes Model. I have a KBB Starscream, BB7 Skywarp, and Yes Model Thundercracker. The BB7 and Yes Model are pretty equal in quality and much better then the KBB. I would definitely keep an eye on the Maketoys Howling Meteor. The lastest hubbub over in the tfw2005 forum is that the latest pics of of it show the wings are hollow on the backside/bottom. MP-10 is a great Optimus Prime and MP-13 is a great Soundwave. Both are worth getting and should be easily found. I think MP-10 just got released again in the US at Toys R Us.

    Anyone know if the P-Bandai Missile Regults will be available in stores in Japan. Going to Tokyo in January and I was thinking of picking them up then instead of ordering online.

    Nice! Just picked up the first three books. These sound interesting and I look forward to reading them.

    So my Spark Toys ST-02 Spartacus (War Within Megatron) came in. The figure is nice and near perfect replica of Don Figueroa's design.

    I'm currently looking at getting a KO or Official Bumblebee as well. I am also pondering between Fan Toys Grinder or the KO oversized Grimlock (Reximus Prime). I would love to hear your thoughts on the KO Bumblebee if you end up getting one.

    Got the notice from figinstock and finally got my preorder in!

    I have a KO MP-12 Lambor/Sideswipe and I am happy with it. I bought it not knowing they would rerelease the MP-12 so and at the time prices were getting a little crazy for the Takara/Tomy official one. Compared to my other official MPs (Prowl and Wheeljack), the fit on the MP-12 is not seem as good as the official ones. I don't have an official Lambor/Sideswipe to directly compare him to the KO. I think it's worth it depending on how much you can get the KOs for compared to the official versions.

    SOC Big O Rerelease P-Bandai repaint/Rerelease of the SOC Big O. I pre-ordered as I have been looking for one for while now. I found listings on Nippon Yasan and Anime Export.

    Nice, I have been waiting for the Mirage pre-order to go up. I am off Monday and live on Guam, 1 hour ahead of Tokyo time.

    I just looked at your build more in depth and I think you should look at another CPU cooler. I read up on the Cryorig C7 and it seems to be geared towards mini ITX builds, which are very small, compact PCs. The motherboard you listed is an ATX board, this standard size, and I also see you listed K CPUs, which are overclockable, and the reviews on the Cryorig C7 that I skimmed say it is not recommended for overclocking your CPU. Check the Cryorig H7, that appears to be the go to budget CPU cooler now. Also, unless you do video editing and other CPU intensive tasks, the I5-6600K would be the better pick over the I7-6700K

    This is the movie everyone should be taking their significant other to see for Valentine's Day!
