  1. cool, thank you sir I've been debating, I over-paid buying one off of Mandarake during the first release and I've been debating on another copy. Especially since the prices seem to have come down, at least for the time being. -b.

    Yes they did. And even I as I type this the HMR Cannon Fodder is still available (again) for pre-order at one major e-tailer. And it's been there for days. -b.
  3. Do you mind if I ask how much you paid for your Metal Build Heine via Nin-Nin? Or if it was the same price they it listed for now, $ 264.33? -b.
  4. Nope, August 1st for the 31 - 05 I believe. Although I wish it was 02. -b.

    Well hopefully Max is as 'easy' to secure as the CF VF-1A. -b.
  6. Where is David? Someone tell him he's slacking on updating the list. *edit, well sh!t, just noticed a particular...absence. -b.
  7. ^Nice customization on that 25A Duymon. It's funny how just a little color, or stripe, adds so much more 'aesthetic' to the 25A Fighter mode. -b.
  8. Ah, gotcha. I started to panic looking at all of my Yamato Valks currently on display. My v1 1/60's yellowed pretty badly, even the one or two I still had left MISB, but honestly who cares about those anymore. On topic, I still think the Fighter mode on the 4G is the prettiest in all of Macross and I absolutely would buy a repaint (provided it wasn't flat-out awful). -b.
  9. Not to further de-rail the topic, but I must be blind. What yellowing? I don't see any discoloration on the Yamato DYRL Valks posted... -b.
  10. Doesn't look like it is, at least no time soon. -b.

    Really wish I had purchased Yamato's v2 1/60 Max VF-1J. That said, the pics of the HiMR look cool. Promotional pictures FTW. -b.
  12. Yep. I was specifically looking to make sure that it was there too. -b.
  13. Props for the filmmakers doing something new with Trek, at least from a trailer marketing perspective. Gonna go and see it regardless. -b.
  14. The first 20 minutes or so reminded me of that South Park episode where Cartman gets revenge on some kid by making him eat his own parents. Yes, OT, but also very similar in tone to not only one, but two different instances of this episode - first in the planning and scope of the revenge taken and second, well, "they're here". Anyway, great season finale. A lot of good payoffs from this season's plot lines and good groundwork for next season. -b.
  15. Thanks for the pic - I cannot wait! -b.

    Yeah, as much as I'm NOT a fan of N-Y I don't blame them at all for how Bandai opted to pack the Roy VF-1S Strike. Also, I checked a few of my open orders and it appears I went crazy ordering the cannon fodder VF-1A, so much so that I probably need to cancel the order I placed with HLJ (original window, not the one that was opened the last day or two). I do however need a pre-order for Hikaru's VF-1J, and Max's 1J. It sure does suck being a valk-a-holic. -b.
  17. ^No issues with any of my SH Figuarts, but I only keep them in static poses, not a lot of play, if any, or wear and tear. And a ton of them still MISB. Only ones opened are Iron Man armor and Star Wars figures. That's also the first I've heard or read of any issues Noel. -b.
  18. Paid around $ 50 from HLJ and probably got him shipped at no cost using Private Warehouse. Can't speak to how good, or not, the figure is as he's MISB with the rest of my MP Transformers. Good point, I guess we'll see. But if he's priced the same, or higher than any other TRU MP release then I perceive it as a rip-off. -b.
  19. Sorry, Hasbro was the easy target. I have no idea what they set the SRP at, but Hasbro, TRU, whatever entity or entities are responsible for that price can kick rocks. It's not like I was going to buy another, I have the Takara version but $ 100 is just robbery for anyone that is looking to purchase. Additionally, TRU MP Prowl was only $ 60 or $ 70 IIRC -b.
  20. $ 100 for MP Bumblebee at retail is pure foolishness. That is Hasbro charging that much, if people are willing to pay that much, well it's their money. -b.
  21. Transformers Episode VI and VII??? There has been so much wasted potential with Transformers as a property, especially with the live-action films, but I guess kudos for Hasbro trying to create a "Cinematic Universe". -b.
  22. Y'all so funny. Well hopefully those that like Warcraft the game, and the movie, get their wish for more more and more. -b.
  23. You know, I got the impression that it would have been two armies staring at each other from afar while Jon and Ramsey tried to out-strategize one another. And the way that Jon charged in, ready to die knowing he fell into a trap, forcing his army into action, mostly because of their love and loyalty to him - for me just made for better TV/drama. Yep, you're right it does feel like a bit of a payoff. Hopefully the trend doesn't completely reverse. But we know there will be more losses before the "final". That sucked when he went down, especially since he may have survived if not for that final arrow. I immediately thought back to 'Denise' from that other show. -b. *edit for spelling
  24. The everyone hates all but 3 properties statement is pretty inaccurate, but I do fully agree that it's a tough crowd around these parts. I kind of want to see this, just because, but no one I know does, or they're just as ambivalent about it as I am. It's almost like the Warcraft name is hurting the movie w non-fans. "Oh, it's a Warcraft movie from that game everyone played 15 years ago." There's no luster w the general audience. -b.
  25. Jon had no choice but to charge, in either instance. He wasn't about to just sit back and watch what Ramsey was going to do to his brother. And he had no choice but to advance to avoid the arrows. Hence his look of, well sh!t, Ramsey's ploy worked and got me out here on the field of battle...alone. It was a lose, lose or lose proposition and he stayed true to character. And it's so obvious Sansa is changed by way of extreme trauma. Hence her smile at the very end. She may not have even known the Knights would be available, even though the odds were good that they would be. Either way, her character is very much in the mindset of "f" everyone. It's also clear this season has changed from earlier seasons where heroes died vs. heroes live. I enjoy it more, but I get the complaint that it's counter earlier seasons and could be construed as taking the "easy" way out. But the good guys can't always die, even on Game of Thrones. -b.
