  1. Nice. Thanks for all the info everyone. I appreciate it.
  2. I prefer the more brooding face too. I know it's a cartoon, but I still don't like my cartoons too cartoony... It is true that I, like most people here, will probably leave the helmet on almost all of the time. I just feel, for $200, it should be perfect, and I know this head sculpt is going to bug me.
  3. Look at this: http://wildcats.pupui.jp/mt/archives/2008/...eview_pa_4.html
  4. The Beagle one, not repackaged by Toynami, is MUCH less cartoony.
  5. This is the first time I've seen the head sculpt for the Toynami/Robotech version, which I ordered last week. I am REALLY disappointed. Why is it so cartoony? So, do I cancel and get the Beagle instead? Isn't the Beagle more expensive?
  6. And they were legit items? Not Hong Kong knockoffs (I guess there have been some high quality ones circulating last month or two, more so than before)? Shipping was reasonable? Thanks.
  7. Cool, thanks. Anyone else?
  8. Good advice, thanks. This is the Yamato you're talking about, right?
  9. Good point. I'm kind of a medium level fan of Megazone 23, I guess, at least compared to MOSPEADA, which I am a huge fan of, but for some reason, I'm feeling inclined to get the Proto Garland and the Factory Color (white) Garland, but no other recolorings.
  10. Anyone ever ordered from angolz.com? Any good or bad experiences? Shipping issues (seems like the have typically expensive shipping, and what looks like a free option as well)? Thanks.
  11. Does anyone have any opinions on how the Aoshima models and the Yamato ones compare? I know the Aoshima ones need to be built (glue, paint?), and the Yamato ones don't, the Aoshima are 1/24th scale and the Yamato are 1/15th, and the Aoshima are between half and 1/4 the price of the Yamato ones, depending on where you shop, but are there any other differences between them? Any opinions as to which to go with (quality, look, scale, durability, matching with other variable bikes)? Any input here is appreciated.
  12. Girlfriend just texted me that my "toys just came." No, that's not dirty. Should mean I have a blue Beta and a Shadow Alpha waiting at home for me right now... I feel like a kid on Christmas. Kind of sad, huh? Still have to find a blue Alpha...
  13. Yep, finally coming to DVD in a few short months. I don't think HG actually sued, btw. It was just Matchbox cashing in on old molds I think.
  14. Sorry for thread-jacking there. I'm going to let that topic die, and let's get back to the purpose of this thread... My Toynami blue Beta and Shadow Alpha should be arriving tomorrow... though the shipping info hasn't updated since the 19th. Can't wait.
  15. Actually, what I'm referring to are some perfectly polite comments I made. Nothing rude or anything of that nature, and completely in line with the TOU, stating my personal opinions on some things (pricing of the Beagle, back before I knew that the non-Robotech Beagle was even more expensive elsewhere, as well as disappointment with Shadow Chronicles) which were deleted on a number of different occassions. These were fully in line with the TOU, and I did not insult Tommy Yune, simply said that I was disappointed with the poor quality, and stated examples of why.
  16. You mean the site where any negative comments get censored or deleted? Yeah, that's definitely a better place...
  17. Think I'd like to see a stealth scheme on the hardsuit and on the motoslave, with some small red spots for highlighting.
  18. NICE!!! So that's a new model kit, as opposed to a custom paint job or an existing kit, or one of the Yamato toys?
  19. It is absolutely beyond me why Harmony Gold has put all of Robotech in the hands of the Yune brothers... Yes, Tommy Yune is a perfectly decent (actually pretty good) artist... but his writing, his continuity revisions, and his directing of Shadow Chronicles are just terrible... But I guess that's a conversation for another topic.
  20. You dpn't think that something like Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040 (sorry if I'm incorrectly remembering the more recent reworking of Bubblegum Crisis) would work for MOSPEADA?
  21. Wow... Thanks! If you ever have a chance talking to him or to Hideki Kakinuma, could you ask if either would still be interested in doing an updated MOSPEADA, perhaps along the lines of the artwork that I believe Kakinuma did a couple years ago, and darker and more serious like they oringinally intended? Seems like, with all the new material out now, it would be a prime time for an OVA at least.
  22. Pretty cool. Where'd you get them?
  23. Nice, I'll check it out. Thank you! Any experience ordering from this place? I've never heard of it before.
  24. Ok, so I ask again, if we're in the USA, how do we get to see these (specifically Viper's Creed and Rideback for me), other than waiting for an eventual DVD release?
