I'd rather have landing gears that are secured tightly and hard to deploy than landing gears that fold up under the weight of the VF every two minutes. <cough> 1/60 VF-1 <cough>

...and how much it'll cost to ship the damn thing.

I'll get the YF-19/FB combo. The remaining issues don't bother me cause I don't play with my toys, I just pose them in a display case.

October? That's fast. There will hardly be enough time for Yamato to implement any changes they might need to make due to possible QC issues with the Ivanov version.

Beautiful! That VF-2 might not be designed by the Hory Froating Head but it's still sexy as hell.

That's because these pics are from the VF-0A not the VF-0S which is white.

Just bought the 360 today along with PGR3 and Rainbow Six Vegas. I love the PC connectivity using media center. Mu live alias is Lorenzo74.

I'm sure that's is just the CG version used for the anouncement, but I'm still excited about the news.

That's not old news, that's GREAT news!!!

Metallic? hmmm...you just got my attention. Anyone know how much it's going for?

You can see the light effects here. Just click the link next to the thumbnail pic.

I'll join that minority, although some Gundam shows are less super robot-ish than others. 08th MS for example, is more real robot than Wing And the mini skirt remark was pretty funny IMO.

[butthead] Huhu, he said Assfleck...huhu...[/butthead]

IIRC Yamato included TV type hands in the VF-1A CF package.

Don't mind me, just reserving a post. I'm a little busy at work at the moment, but I'll be sure to respond to recent posts when I get home tonight. *Edit* Here we go. IMO the fact that things seem black/white has something to do with the medium. It's very hard to convey a subtle emotion through a messageboard. Smilies help to show when we're kidding or truly angry but that's about it. Then there's language. For some of us, English isn't our native language which makes it harder to get a point across. Not every negative comment needs to go, it's just that you could consider phrasing your opinion a little more subtle and less sarcastic. The text in your sig doesn't help either. To me personally, you're coming across as someone who's on a mission to make everyone see that Yamato's products suck and that we all need to stop buying them. In some of your comments, you come across as someone who thinks that people who buy Yamato's products, and enjoy them even though they're not perfect, are inferior and stupid. You're not saying it, but IMO it comes across that way. LOL! They do, Graham stated that a couple of months ago.

That's great news! Thanks for the update Graham!

Hey, I'll be right in line to give Yamato a kick up the @ss to make them get their act together, but... Some members just can't let it rest and apparently need to use every opportunity to make sarcastic comments about Yamato's QC. Graham has stated, a couple of months ago, that he's about fed up with the constant b!tching and that he might stop visiting the toy section alltogether. It's not like he's on our payroll or anything, Graham shares his info because he wants too, not because he needs too. If he feels that any info he gives us will only lead to more whining and b!tching he might not want to bother.

Graham has been posting in other sections of the forum after his meeting with Yamato. I think he might be a little fed up with all the negative comments on recent products in the toy section. Way to go whiners, thank you.

No, he's recasting the 1/60 VF-1D cockpit canopy for me.

an antenna. Got any pics? That's the radar. snap on

The fact that they'll release the EVA-00 might mean that Bandai will make the complete EVA line.

I can keep mine up just fine. You have to push it up and in untill it clicks into place. Just don't break it though.

Ferrari go through a lot of trouble to avoid putting big ugly spoilers on the back of their car's and what do the tuners put on them?... And that body kit is for the 360, and it already looked stupid on that. Love that flat black color though.

Yeah, I've had something similar happen with a rather large order as well. They shipped six items in three separate shipments. (keep in mind that shipping from Japan to Europe is ex-friggin-spensive, and HLJ only use EMS when the value exceeds a certain amount) I guess it was just wishful thinking on my part.
