    I didn't even notice it was being released until like 2hours after... Need to start stalking threads better 😅
  2. Sanity is Optional
    Whoops, type-o! ¥15,300

    Well, looks like everyone's sold out now, though if you don't mind paying over $300 with shipping there's ones on AJ from scalpers shipping to US... [edit] Hell with it, paid $215 on ebay for one shipped, so only like $40 extra...

    I'm actually surprised by how low the price of that is, only ¥15,300 or around $140. I was expecting a 1/7 figure with lights to be at least $250+

    I'll be happy so long as the battroid form is good. I already have the Yamato for fighter mode, but the Battroid is not great. If compromizes have to be made, I'd rather it excel where the Yamato is lacking.

    So, all of those are actually in Pathfinder 2e as well. Spells can be heightened into higher level slots for better effects (spells no longer scale with caster level, only slot level). Spell DCs however scale with character level, and not by spell level. Auto-scaling unlimited usage cantrips Metamagic is actually available to all casters, to a certain extent. Pathfinder 2e uses a feat system, and metamagic is something you can buy with class feats, so long as it's on your class feat list. Example: Reach is a metamagic available so Sorcs at lvl 1, it allows you to spend an action to add +30' range to the next spell you cast this turn. No daily limit, no spell slot cost.

    Just got this in from HLJ:

    I believe the adventure from the beginner box is a good place to start if you want to give it a try, from everything I've heard it's very well put together as a system introduction. As to the complaints, I can say that the people saying there's only a few optimal builds are full of crap. There's a huge number of possible character builds even within a single class, and generally speaking they're not significantly under or over-powered compared to eachother, so long as you set your stats right for what you want to do (I.E. don't make a 14str character as a primary melee combatant). Sure, there might be a specific build that comes out a percent or two better in a specific situation, but I'm not aware of any builds that break the game anything close 3.5e style. The math is pretty well separated from everything else, and character building is mainly about selecting which options to attach to the same math. The biggest complaints are from people who played spellcasters in 3.5/Pathfinder 1, for the simple reason that spellcasters are heavily nerfed vs those editions. Spellcasters have fewer spells per day and apart from your highest available spell levels aren't terribly useful for combat against like-level enemies. Spellcasters are going to feel a lot less powerful. I'm on the fence on if they went a little too far, but it also depends highly on your GM, and mine likes extended adventuring days with restricted resting ability (which also nerfs spellcasting).

    I kinda want the pack, but have no need for another Strike.

    My group was to start up in-person again yesterday (been using Roll20 to play online), but someone was sick (not COVID) so we're delaying another week. We play Pathfinder 2e, found it has a nice mix of simpler and more balanced math combined with huge amounts of mechanical character customization. We shifted from 3.5 to Pathfinder (effectively 3.75) once WOTC stopped 3.5 support, and then gave Pathfinder 2e a shot when it came out and liked it.

    I suspect that in general people who have moved their taskbar are also more likely to be somewhat computer literate, and thus less likely to interface with computer setup/repair personnel.

    It's on the US P-Bandai site right now. https://p-bandai.com/us/item/N2580351001001

    That's kinda where I'm at. I've got both GFFMC Wing Zeros, but none with the more TV or proto- style wings.

    Started putting together the LEGO Land Rover today. That is a monstrously complex powertrain. Unfortunately, it's also got quite a lot of friction, and it'll only let the thing roll when in higher gears, at the lowest gears it even skipped a tooth somewhere when I tried to roll it. I guess that's the limit of what can be achieved without any actual friction reducing elements like bearings or grease.

    Thanks for the heads up on that, hadn't noticed it before.

    Sounds a lot like the P-Bandai recolor gunpla releases, you can get some very interesting color combos.

    I worked for a start up (for almost a decade), where the founder/CEO/owner was asked to retire by the investors (who could have forced the issue). It can happen.

    I'm a bit surprised that the "Dream Cats" Macross Zero F-14 is still up for sale on their website. So either they're blowing smoke, or they've definitely reached an agreement with BW somehow.

    If they make diecast VF-25/27/29 I am absolutely down for it.
  20. Sanity is Optional
    Just put in an order from Mandarake, and they let me know that EMS shipping was about $20 cheaper than DHL on it. HMR CF VF-1A and a MG gunpla.
  21. Sanity is Optional
    More or less what I do. I throw everything in the box, and start taking things out to see when I hit a shipping breakpoint.

    Btw, both are available on the US P-Bandai website. https://p-bandai.com/us/item/N2530645001001 https://p-bandai.com/us/item/N2563438001001

    Speaking as an engineer: you use the same design everywhere because it works and designing a new one is a pain.

    There's also the possibility that there's fewer breaks due to people not handling them much (due to difficult transformation). Also, I recall issues on release of the tampo peeling off of the wings (the gold emblems) when the "protective" film was removed. Probably put a damper on buying, similar to the Arcadia SV-51 leg issue.
  25. Sanity is Optional
    Well, found a place online selling the Excavator for $330 with free shipping so...
