    Many SciFi fans are big fans of space combat scenes. I myself do like them, but I am more character and story driven. As far as Star Trek goes, the writing took a noticable turn following Roddenberry's passing. The stories got darker and moved away from having a his signature moral aspect to the stories. While I was never a big fan of DS9, that show in particular, showed the biggest change on direction. The story concept was initially way too restrictive. Everything was to happen on the station or with runabouts. That show eventually turned into a shooting war. The show seemed to hit its peek of popularity at that point. So yeah, people love seeing shooting wars. It sells tickets. Will it keep a lasting fan base? Who knows.

    I imagine that COVID messed up the production schedule. I thought about ordering those back when you initially mentioned them. I decided to wait until they were released. But, well... It has been awhile. I do hope that they are still planning on releasing them. I do need me some brownies.

    To my knowledge, Arcadia has yet to release a VF-1A of any kind. I'm still waiting for my Brownies.

    I would think that the gun would need to be at that angle of you do anything close to a 90 degree elbow bend. The angle does seem a tad much though.

    Like everything else... It just needs to sell well enough to milk the mold. Hopefully with little or no adjustment. For myself, I'll probably just commit to the Blue Tread. I just don't have the room for more.

    Don't DO IT! It makes you want to buy more Macross goods! Unless you want to buy more Macross goods.....

    I'm half way through season 2 at this point. Fairy Tail filler remains Naruto levels of bad. At least there aren't too many of them. I may have to skip the 2 25 episode filler blocks coming up. The story is just interesting enough to keep me going. I'm mostly just watching that show for Erza at this point. I just might make it to the end!

    I haven't watched Southern Cross in forever! Can a Zor ship take on a Zentradi ship? I don't recall Zor ships having that much firepower.

    Where I come from, if you hear banjos, you start running as fast as you can. It seems as if the Protoculture just pursued science, engineering, and technology, for the sake of science, engineering, and technology. You make things just to prove that you can and to show that you have mastery of the knowledge.

    Planetary scale bombardment can make most stories very short. Or you could start a story that way...

    So the Strike Roy Custom and the Regult Scout as a two-pack never made any sense to me. While the Scout is uncommon, Roy's Strike is unique. The Regult Scout packaged with the Elint Seeker would had made more sense as a two-pack provided that it wasn't already released. Because army building! So for my own reasons, I hope that the Regult Scout and re-release Strike Roy are sold separately. I missed Roy the 1st time around and I refuse to pay 1:60 scale prices for it. I could use two scouts, I would really need two Roys.

    Posting seems to be fine now using Firefox. Thanks!

    Most reviews seem to be mostly positive for the Valkyrie Factory KOs. I'll probably get one to play with if I can ever find one for $100 USD or less.

    I believe "hundreds" is too small of any estimate.

    Well I do like how it looks. Its just that I would never buy it. Not my type of thing. Maybe if I ever won the PowerBall or something. Plus... all the powered armor bits are missing or totally intentionally left out to make it look pretty. I probably should just say that there are other things missing other than her butt plate.

    You all need to update your homeowner's insurance to cover the replacement costs of all your treasures! Rebuilding those collections after a tragic loss would be painful to say the least.

    It seems to me that they do indeed move slower than Hero figures. The prices stay low long enough for some fans to start army building. They seem to show up less often once they have finally sold out.

    And Japan just closed their borders to foreign travel yet again due to the new COVID variant. Not sure how this is going to effect shipping.

    To be released as a set so far. I'm hoping for TWE Blue Phalanx in the future!

    My 1st Regult also had a leg issue. It would hold any pose just fine, but if you picked it up, one leg would noticeably drop down. It would still hold the same pose if you set back down, so it wasn't a big issue. It just hinted at potential future issues. We all knew that the legs would eventually be the major issue with the Regult, It is most likely why Bandai included the stand with it.

    I seem to be have issues posting using Firefox on Windows 10 on my Desktop. There seems to be a lot of lag when I click the "Submit Replay" button. I get the grayed out "Saving..." button, but it seem to hang at this point. I often need to refresh the page and then it might work. Microsoft Edge doesn't seem to exhibit this issue. Update: Chrome seems to work fine as well. It seems to be an issue with Firefox. Or at least Firefox with default settings. I have similar issues with Firefox on my Android phone and Galaxy Tab 6.

    I'm giving Fairy Tail another go. I dropped it after the first episode the first time. It seem to me that it is trying to be something between Dragon Ball and One Piece. It's OK. I'm currently on episode 12. So far the 1st filler episode seem to be Naruto level bad. I may just skip all the fillers since I can! At any rate, It will do to fill the time between the current shows. It is better than Muv-Luv.
