  1. Wouldn't take that much to make the version you're referring to: new hips, new legs (maybe just the thighs even) and new upper torso for the open jacket, and voila... another guaranteed buy. I would not be surprised if they did release the 1st season SAC version in a few months.
  2. You can catch up with all the episodes so far here, and in HD to boot. Twoducks is right, this season is proving itself to be the best one yet, what with the fast paced, super dynamic action sequences, the more expansive world which harkens back to The Last Airbender, the revisiting of some more characters and concepts from the original series, and like its predecessor, the great attention to continuity... It's awesome personified. She's very much around from episodes 1-6; she does not show up in episode 7 because the last episode focuses away from Korra and the rest of the gang currently visiting with the Metal Clan.
  3. In the case of the VF-14, like Yamato with their VF-4G, if what you fear came to pass, what a swan song that would be for Arcadia...
  4. Nickelodeon's promotion of this series does epically suck; I've missed them all until running across it tonight, by pure chance... loved the Lin Beifong centric episode. Catching up online now, and it's very good.
  5. Long range optics? Targeting Sensors? Because a humanoid shaped robot needs a head? All of the above? Regardless, the VF-2SS and the VF-2JA are awesome, the VA-1SS is mediocre at best in battroid and horrible in fighter. I'd buy a Metal Siren if the better M2 Valkyries were released first. As for a wish that has a smidgen of a chance to become reality one day, how about the VF-14?
  6. ... and the story just keep getting worse and worse as more information comes to light: Shot down from 30000ft by an AA missile... a sickening act of barbarism that has cost the lives of all 295 people on board.
  7. I'd go for a second Motoko if she's released in her 2nd GIG getup, even though I already own a 1/8-ish Gutto Kuru version.
  8. Figma does it again, the major looks awesome... preordered!
  9. I want one, truly, but will have to give it some thought before committing; I've spent far too much money this year already... and it's barely half over.
  10. I don't think it was random at all. It was an Easter-egg for fans of the original, specifically discussing the Icarus spacecraft nearing Mars orbit. It doesn't mean that it was a direct link to the original franchise (maybe the original movie if it stood alone, but not the sequels -- the depicted history of those negates any relation), but it was a nice little nod to the '68 film. This completely separates the rebooted PotA films from Tim Burton's incoherent mess of a re-imagining attempt; and destroys DuelGundam2099's assertion of a shared timeline.
  11. I can just imagine an AA meeting conducted by the likes of Macross World members: Chug, chug, chug, chug...!
  12. Dandy says -- it's time to go to BooBies...
  13. Looks like a RP job to me...
  14. Not THAT far; besides, don't know about you, but I could use a breather... or at least my wallet could.
  15. I know white would definitely look better, but aren't the landing gears metallic gray in the Anime? -- I may be remembering wrong, however... --
  16. That just sounds so hilariously wrong...
  17. Bleary eyed, half drunk, panel lining of an expensive collectible... you sir are a maverick. looks pretty good, BTW. Quick, somebody help the poor man and pour him another glass...
  18. I'm happy it worked for you just as intended; always glad to be of help.
  19. Terrible affliction OCD; it insidiously deprives sufferers of living space and funds...
  20. Got mine delivered from AmiAmi; I'm still flabbergasted I was able to get one off them. Checked it out and it looks flawless and with no paint bleed or fuzzy edges; although, the wings still exhibit a slight up-turn bend... Bandai...
  21. If I remember correctly, since both items are on the same invoice, you'll have to pay for both at the same time once the first of the two in nearing release, and you'll have to wait until the second item arrives at N-Y before they are shipped together.
  22. I expect it to be just as good as M Night Shyamalan-ma-ding-dong's masterpiece: The Last Airbender... wait...
  23. Aside from the Frontier license, and then only the DX toys for the most part, Bandai has shown very little staying-power and follow-through with anything Macross related. I doubt they'll ever revisit the Hi-Metal line for anything other than a reissue of previously released VFs, and maybe not even that; so I would not expect anything new.
