STAR WARS Merchandise Episode - 2
Big s replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
That was epic. Too bad bandai doesn't include waterslides with all their series of kits. -
On the delta thread it was mentioned that these may be a new type of decal, instead of standard waterslide decals so you may want to take note of that before treating them the same.

Nothing

I was checking to see if preorders popped up for some of the new kits and was surprised by gginfinite. The releases are listed for a month later, but pricing was lower than I thought. The Hyakushiki revive was $11.69. I remember the last time I checked on their pricing they were almost $10more than other sites, now they seem closer to over seas prices. I may have to check them out more often. I haven't seen preorders for the new items anywhere else yet.

I think most collectors of japanes toys and action figures are probably at least late teens and up due to the cost and as far as Macross specific are probably older due to relevancy and changing trends away from mecha anime. Things like gundam will always be more popular due to the fact that more people know about it now, with kits being sold here and there in the U.S. And with the IBO series coming to Cartoon Network. As far as Macross goes it's not on tv none of the newer stuff past plus can be released here and the toys that do exist here are just crap from toynami.

I think I love the paint jobs on these, but I really don't care much for the mechanical designs.

I'm gonna be 38 soon and have been watching anime since I can remember, mostly Gatchaman, MazingerZ, and of course Macross. When I was a kid all we had were the americanized versions, but around my late teens I was able to finally see the real versions of most of the classics. Now because of me my daughter also loves anime and she's really into the whole cosplay thing. She just turned 18 and she has her own favorites, but I have passed by her room a few times while she was watching my Macross DVDs and she likes the original the best, but she also likes frontier as well. I don't think she's seen the new delta stuff yet.

I really don't think doing a poll is going to give us an accurate result. I do know many of the younger ones would have probably been introduced to macross by their parents, but I think most under 20 people don't have macross on their radar. Most anime fans here in the U.S. Seem to be more interested in non mecha shows like Tokyo Ghoul, Kill la Kill, One Punch Man, or maybe slightly older stuff like DBZ.

I really do hate the head on that one.

I have that old nichimo kit and the right and left arms are bent the wrong way. Also if you move the joint at the shoulder straight out the arms on that one would be sticking up.

The Alien/Predator/Aliens vs. Predator Thread
Big s replied to VT 1010's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I don't think there's a way to make alien not wired. The face hugger rapes people with en extending dong and the full grown alien has a giant penis on the back of its head, that's how it got the nick name "big chap". H.R. was a very detailed yet creepy pervy designer/artist. -
I think the arms on the small glaug are on the wrong sides.
-
It's at 59 percent on rotten tomatoes which is still above my pay to see it ranking, so I'm still gonna check it out. Unlike bvs I'm already invested in these films, with dc films I didn't like man of steel and bvs was far below my pay to see it ranking so I don't feel I missed anything on the screen side. With these xmen films having interconnecting storylines I feel I might miss something skipping it.

I mainly want old school macross, but macross2 or plus items would be great. I'm not the biggest fan of the newer stuff, although there are some items I wouldn't mind.

The Alien/Predator/Aliens vs. Predator Thread
Big s replied to VT 1010's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
That's the opposite of a vagina. I mean the thing face rapes people🙀 -
I hope they stay far away from stickers.
-
For the mystery exclusive item for the rg Sinanju item I'm hoping for rg waterslide decals, because they always only put stickers for the markings. But to be honest it's probably just effects parts or maybe a bazooka. That mg thunderbolt actually looks really great without the full armor. I kinda want it but I'd be paying for a lot of extra parts. Hopefully they can be easily attached and removed.

The Official Robot Spirits (Tamashii/Damashii) Thread
Big s replied to Cyclone Trooper's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
From the picture the gm looks more like an effects piece😁 -
To be honest I would like to see another non valkyrie in November since we get the 1a in September. Tomahawk, or maybe Spartan or another enemy would really excite me.
-
Will he ever open a door? I think that's the important question.
-
So the bigger pictures show peg holes in the gold parts on the Sinanju. I guess all the black is actually plastic parts and don't require stickers or paint.
-
No paint other than figures. Lots of rivets and if I remember seam lines might only be on weapons , if any at all. Gloss it, decal then dullcoat and it will look great.

The Official Robot Spirits (Tamashii/Damashii) Thread
Big s replied to Cyclone Trooper's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Gonna have to retire my revoltechs. -
I have a feeling that many sites ordered extra units because they were an exclusive item with an expectation of high demand. If there is a rerelease online it probably won't have the stand, but bandai does get confusing about exclusives.

Captain America: Civil War, on Bluray Sept 13, 2016
Big s replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
When I saw the first Cap film and Red Skull said "I'm a big fan of you're films." I expected Captain America to respond more like a certain A lister with "Why wouldn't you be?".
