    I've not actually watched any trailers for this, even if the promo activities are pretty heavy. I think mostly it's down to superhero fatigue.. Looking at the pics though, at first it looks great to see Hugh in the classic yellow Wolverine costume, but as more pics show up, he just looks weird in it. I think the main problem is he is too tall. Yellow-spandex Wolverine has always been shown to be much stockier in other media, so it looks a bit disconcerting to see a comparatively lanky one here. Yes Huge Jackman is definitely Wolverine in everyone's minds, he has made that role his own over the years. In the older main X-men movies though, the directors have done a good job mostly hiding his height in his scenes. In Logan, we see his height in some parts but it wasn't that noticeable perhaps because of other stuff happening on screen. I guess what I'm trying to say that the yellow costume does draw more attention to his height than without. All the same I hope the movie does well. Not sure if will watch it in theatres, likely wait for early overall reviews first.

    I love me more VF-4.. and as I'm typing this I'm thinking Bandai would sooner release these than the dang Tomahawk.

    Haha at first I thought that part was strange, as if the feet were spring loaded or something to open. But reverse footage totally makes sense now.

    Sometimes, the more you know...... Kow Yokoyama is a name I hear now & then, so this is where he got his early fame from making this line of models. Definitely like his illustrations, and as I'm looking through some of them, they do remind me of stuff from various Final Fantasy games. It could very well be the designs from the latter being inspired from his works.

    No idea what this is.. but when looking it up the whole line does looks fantastic.

    @Perxion excellent work! I like that it scales perfectly with Sentinel's and get even more play value when paired with their pilot figures & bikes.

    I wish my first model kit build looked this nice.

    It should be similar to the Hikaru 1S Mechanic Edition is terms of effort to procure. Super Ostrich is just P-Bandai / TWE release, and still available on Yoyakunow.

    New write up by Bandai Hobby on this kit. Please use browser translations: https://bandaihobby.hatenablog.com/entry/2024/05/17/163000 Some little nuggets in the article: 1. Gun from the HG YF-19 kit fits into Basara's hand. 2. There's Fire Bomber logo at the bottom hilt of Basara's pod launcher. 3. Feet soles have had their design changed, in accordance to update by Kawamori himself.

    Nice one on Max 1J. It a great feeling to score something for great price, and doubly so when it turned out to be way better than expected. Right? But I think in Bandai's mind, the DX doesn't need any nice art to sell, and so put it on the lower tier items instead.

    Yeahh which is really cool, and love that he adopted the TB2 rear aero spoiler aesthetic for it. As mentioned before in other treads, this short is really my absolute favorite of all the Thunderbird S sequences, since it marries both of my favorite sci-fi vehicles - jets and bikes. I actually never watched whole episodes of Thunderbirds Are Go, but from the many shorts on Youtube there's really so much to like. I think the scenes are well shot, with the action shots easy to follow which is why the sequences with Thunderbird S look so much better than in recent Macross shows with all its blink-and-you'll-miss-it fast cuts imho. For example: Another aspect I noticed is the really great sound design, staging & score. The vehicles all sound really great, and the sound effects pop. The combined launch sequence really homages the original well and blasts through nicely with some decent sound system.

    Roll out Isamu's alternate ride.. By itself, the scheme it is a nice homage to his YF-19, or rather a carbon copy lol. But in comparison to the other 29's, I kinda feel it is the plainest color scheme. Whether they make sense or not, it lacks the striking 'gills' along the side of fuselage, or the other organic looking touches like the Alto's white striping on the back that always look like a squid to me lol.

    LOL yeahh.. curious they didn't really do anything about that from when they first showed Battroid. The side covers look really odd, very flat, as if they are made of cardboard cutouts and an afterthought. Some have issue with the legs, some with the head, but I guess this is the biggest and only bugbear for me at this moment.

    Gotta appreciate how much the newer HMR boxes are better than the older ones. The viewing window is now moved to the back, so we can appreciate Tenjin's art in full and make awesome display pieces in their own right. I wish the larger DX boxes have the same great art style.
