That's... extremely disappointing. The entirety of Nerf history and the worst he can come up with is the Deploy? What about the Detonator? The Slingshot? The Backlash? The Air Launcher? Come on man, use some imagination!

I got mine today as well. My head laser is bent by pretty much the same amount. Same side laser too. Can't comment on the Bandia-Arcadia quality argument as this is my first valk, but the plastic seemed awfully creaky on it. Maybe that's just the nature of the beast, I don't know. My only issue with the transformation was that with the canards, beam turret, and wings, there was just so much hanging off it was hard to keep track of everything and make sure nothing was trying to occupy the same space as something else. The actual process was easy enough.

I waffled about this last night and all morning, but just pulled the trigger. I think I got the last one. Thanks for the heads up Cowboy!

Me too. Also worried about the wing hinges, but I guess we'll find out.

There was a CF involved, but there was also an Hs.

Agree Noel. Can't wait until March. Is this the first time we've seen the DX with the arm railguns extended? Does any of that text say whether the guns fold out properly or if they require parts swapping like the model kit? I would hope they fold out properly, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of room in the forearm. Maybe they just flip upward on a hinge instead of extending outward?

It looks to me like the rudders fold inward 90 degrees until they are parallel to the wings, then the boosters are just stuck on top or clipped around the whole wing assembly or something. You can see the tips of the rudders inboard of the boosters in the fighter mode picture.

Tempting... But I'm going to pass on this. I'm not a big enough fan of the VF-31 to justify getting more than one, and Mirage's has much better colors. Nice to see some of you guys are getting a second chance though. Enjoy!

The pictures on HLJ are the official pictures, so they should be pretty close if they aren't final. I don't think anyone really knows about the sword, but it's not mentioned anywhere, so I would assume it's not included. The Lildrakens and FAST packs are likely going to come later in the form of an extra thing to buy.

Got the confirmation email from HLJ. IXTL the hero!

THE UN-OFFICIAL COLOR SCHEME THREAD
snakerbot replied to the white drew carey's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Inspired by my love of black space ships, my love of the VF-27, and the lack of black VF-27s.

After reading SchizophrenicMC's post, I looked up the smallest star. OGLE-TR-122. It has a radius 120% of that of Jupiter, and a mass of about 0.12 solar masses. Scientists think this is about as small as a star can get and still fuse hydrogen, so I think the TRTs might work on a completely different principle, or at least fuse a different element. The problem comes in when we realize that as the elements get higher on the periodic table, the mass of the star has to increase. Stars that fuse carbon have to be at least 4 solar masses, and stars that fuse neon must be at least 8. Stars that fuse nitrogen or oxygen then must be around 6 solar masses.
