Bandai is just churning what ever they can think of without no reason and hoping that we buy it all like the Pokémon, Yu Gi O, Bakugaun, Fidget Spinner craze and making past teased items vapourware.

I wonder what Mezco has in store for tomorrow’s last tease? Either it’s more Rumble Society/Slugfest trash so they can just delay the official licensed product even further for another few more years and to scoff our money in keeping their in house projects alive.

I believe that Nicholson is very picky in which company he selects to give his face a faithful recreation in a figure form @sh9000, so it might be a very long time if and when a perfect rendition of Nicholson in 1:12 is done. Goji 54 for tomorrow's drop

So which figure now is the running joke for the most delayed figure now since that Keaton Bats is now processing? Ghost Rider as it’s in “Up in Flames” or Freeze since in he’s “Entombed in an Ice Coffin” and it will take years to dig him out of his icy grave. 😜

Reveals 3+4 I think Firefly is going to be be pushed back other two years before the the supposed ETA is it does get solicited, as everything has been pushed back since the lockdown three years ago.

You know that there's going to be very impatient collectors that are going to be like Veruca Salt right? 🙄

Out of all the paint wraps on these “Rice Rockets” from one of the series, wasn’t this used on the Supra Mk.4 originally? As much as Jada loves to use JDM supercars, they should have used a better choice honestly. It’s either a BMW Z6/Toyota Supra Mk.5 (?) or a Scooby BRZ/Toyota Renewal AE86/Scion FRS that will get more interests. The Supra always gets more interest overall, the AE86 is more of a Drift Car due to the Initial D series. It’s what first gets the attention of potential customers with go fast cars and bling it with what ever mods you want with engine swaps, rims, buckets seats, intake, performance mods, brakes and more.

So my eyes have gotten the best of me as I didn't look close enough for the finer details, chalk it up to old age.

@ValkAddict - It's the real 1/48 Yammie 1s Roy Weathering Special. From Jenius' Blog : Scorched Earth Toys - 1/48 Yamato (snapshot) - It's the third one from the bottom, left hand side. Note: If you do get one, there is a good possibility that its starting to crack or it has cracked in some places as it's showing its age from 2008.

An interesting custom combo for a Low Vis/Weathered 1j @m0n5t3r. Just seeing that, it reminded me of Dobber’s creativity on his valks that he posted on various threads here.

You’re still a fairly new collector to us old timers in regards to Macross collecting @Radioguy. Give it time (maybe a few months or more) and you’ll catch up to us. Not many newbies know about the obscure valks as they’re just starting up a new adventure and just focusing on the prominent ones.

@MKT - Can you use clear nail polish to seal and prevent the other gold paint from flaking off? I’m taking a hiatus in collecting Macross figures for now until something gets my attention.

Not yet @orbitalharvest in the 1/48 scale. Arcadia has done only the 1/60 PF VE-1 so far, 1/60 PE VT-1 is up next but unknown when it’s going to be made. Most of us will possibly in our graves if and when Bandai does a 1/48 DX VE-1 or a DX VT-1.

Didn't even bother to post yesterdays drop anyways as it's another Slugfest related item which is now waitlisted. Reveals one ad two (first one is for fans of Scream and the second is possibly a Dick Tracy Foe?) Literally more stuff to slow down the uber delayed items that was promised to be sent out.

Those two covers by Jim Lee was the bomb back in the day, now it's all digital art covers over the computer.

For those interested in tomorrow’s drop.

The only pre-order that I have still existing from the beginning of last year is Doom, in which I dumped all my accumulated points and to be out latter this year (August). I don’t mind waiting for it. The last Slugfest/Rumble Society item I got was the White/Red Krig combo and skipped the rest. Which pre-orders did you call it quits over@Mommar after they screwed everyone over. Based on what you wrote, you cut the ties with Keaton Bats (1 out of 9 others) and anything else (Freeze as well)?

Your not the only person that is totally p***ed at Mezco @Tking22. I'm also getting getting impatient with then as they still have my outstanding GR and Gaslights Bats which is now both delayed to February/March of this year. If they haven't pushed out their Slugfest/Rumble Society garbage and further delayed their regular 1/12 lineup, then it wouldn't have been a issue. Given that the outbreak literally slowed down everything to a halt two years ago, lit seems like now most of the manufacturing business is slowly getting back to normal, however there are still rolling lockdowns that are still happening. Given that Chinese New Year is this weekend, I won't be too surprised if there will be be another possible lockdown when everyone is back to work. What's worse is that Mez has not mentioned about delays on the figures on the social media platforms or fully explained why the delay on the Mezco website in person (other than its pushed to so and so date). Fabster and Toypaige has to do damage control and they both kept us posted. Edit: If I don't see physical evidence that Mezco has not shipped Keaton Bats (the first major uber delayed licensed item), then I'm not getting the teased Solo Black Widow movie figure or Spider Gwen from them at all.

Bane's getting a re-release.

Doesn't Freeze use the seamless suit?? Nope.. I did a back check and Freeze does not: Regular body, I thought it was. So the only figures that uses the seamless body are Big Chap, Concept Alien and Keaton Bats.

For those that will be having Big Chap, Concept Alien, Keaton Bats or Freeze, your taking a possible risk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQ5Ma4adxSg From the chat thread, this has been posted.
