  1. My fiancee also thought I bought the laserdiscs, ha. The box is the right size/shape.
  2. Same. I still have my Renewal Tornado pack, but I think I put them on all of once. The sag was bad. I'd need to see reviews for the Revival to see what reinforcements were made and if they were enough.
  3. Probably only a matter of time! It's the next wave in merchandising as we all get older:
  4. Like the color scheme and the design but man, if transforming the SV-262 isn't just the absolute worst. Pretty sure it's my least favorite VF to transform. I'll have to think on this one.
  5. XARDION MENTIONED??? Wild, didn't know GAINAX was involved in the production and even did some animation for the commercials.
  6. According to Wikipedia, it was in Malicious Intent by Michael Stackpole. I am sure I read it in high school, but it's been too long to remember any other details unfortunately.
  7. Not sure if these have been posted before, but an HJWeb article came across my Twitter feed and it had some photos of the RIOBOT Tread combined with the Legioss:
  8. I think if you write it down on paper, "Matrix-style Star Wars action series with Carrie-Anne Moss" sounds amazing, but this preview leaves me completely underwhelmed. I am very much off the Star Wars ride, though.
  9. We have one in Santa Anita and ironically, it has a bunch of otaku stores in it that would cater to this forum.
  10. Don't know if anyone has had this but the connector pin on the display arm for one of my Legioss completely sheared off: I don't think there's any way to get a replacement for it from Sentinel, but it looks like the Archi stands from GokinPlus have a Sentinel adapter that should work? I've been meaning to try out some Archi stands anyways, so I guess this is the thing that pushes me over the edge on ordering some.
  11. Just to confirm, no, there is no cover for this. I also have the loose head cap and one of my ankles doesn't want to stay extended either. Jenius' transformation guide mentions the bottom panel thing so that may have been an issue on previous releases. I remember battroid locking together pretty securely on my VF-19Advance, but the head/shoulders pop off from the nose cone super easily on my YF-19. They're easy to pop back in, but it's pretty annoying. Things generally seem to either be "too tight" or "too loose." The joints that are tight are crazy difficult to move out of place; the wing roots and the nose cone particularly gave me a lot of trouble. It was generally was a lot less fun to transform than the VF-19.
  12. You can see it incorporated on the tail of the bike, behind the seat. Looks like a recon drone.
  13. I can never not see Optimus Prime playing basketball when I see the Nu Gundam with the Sazabi's cockpit: I felt like I overpaid for the Metal Build Kampfer at P-Bandai (I did), but now that the money is in the rear-view mirror I'm just excited to get my hands on it next month.

    Hi-Metal R

    Ha, I also got the e-mail and came here to see if anyone had any specific info on it. AmiAmi does update their photos and re-lists a figure whenever something gets a design update, so I don't think it's super unusual. I tried doing some surface digging, but the Tamashii Nations sites/blogs/Twitter X accounts didn't have anything on it that I could find, so I guess we'll find out tomorrow.
  15. Usually there's a spike at the end for kickstarters, and given the rate people have been backing the project, I'm not super worried. Macross II will look incredible on the OLED in 4k.
