  1. Did Sophie go missing in the comic? I can't remember. I do remember the farm and barn tho. I lost interest in the comic around the time they leave the prison. Does it get any better after that? And for what it's worth, so far I'm enjoying the series for what it is, although yeah, this season is off to a slow start.
  2. I did, through AE, ages ago. Release is at the end of this month apparently.
  3. Short: Yes. Longer: I've never actually used them myself but I know several people who have, and continue to do so.
  4. My VF-25F had one hip that was tight and one that was loose. I just used a screwdriver to adjust them and they were fine. No real problems with the shoulder joints, yet. I'm really liking these guys, now.
  5. Very nice work, well done. Did you actually paint the cloth? I'm interested in knowing how you recolored the visor too.
  6. Yamato 1/48 DYRL VF-1S Hikaru with Strike Packs. I only have the one 1/48 and that's it. I have about ten 1/60s which I also like a lot. But the 1/48 was such a milestone. And its bigger despite its few faults.
  7. Possibly won't know for a while. It took a few months for the YF-29 joints to start loosening on mine.
  8. No probs. Like RD Blade said, the Battle Ops Bumblebee is also good. They are all pretty similar. --------------------------------------------------- It looks like the null-rays have the original concept swing-arms.
  9. Depending on your priorities the Human Alliance Bumblebee, maybe. The Ferarri Italia was named 'Dino', originally it was going to be 'Mirage'.
  10. HLJ... As said above, neither the Unpainted VF-1J or VF-1A have been released yet. Release date is sometime in 'October'. When HLJ have them in stock you will get a payment request or you will be automatically charged if paying through PayPal. Then it usually takes HLJ about 3 to 5 days to process and dispatch as they only post twice a week.
  11. Someone said something about Oct 21st being the release date, about two weeks ago.
  12. 1/24 Patlabor Type 98 Command Vehicle Completed Model is up for order at HLJ. For those that don't want to build the thing themselves.
  13. Thanks Reïvaj. They look good to me. Predictable though, I guess the fighter modes come next, if these sell well enough.
  14. Nice pic. Kotaku has an article on it, full of nice swears too...
  15. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdWkKKSckNk
  16. I've used them plenty of times over the years, never really had a problem. Received my 2 MP-10 Convoys the other day from them, shipped a day earlier than Amiami too.
  17. Anime Export still has their pre-order open. HLJ hasn't even listed yet.
  18. Interesting, thanks. Mine's just been standing on the shelf but time has taken it's toll and the joints have loosened up.
  19. Lucky bugger. Have you kept it posed in battroid or fighter?
  20. I was implying the loose shoulders and hips. I have only have a few DX toys (VF-25S v1, Macross Quarter, VB-6 Konig Monster), but they are all still fine. Well, at least as fine as they started out...
  21. Bandai would release another batch if demand is strong enough. So try emailing sellers (HLJ, Amiami, Anime Export, HK Collectibles etc) and ask if they are expecting more. That way Bandai's reps are more likely to be informed of demand. It also takes a while to purchase materials, book a factory and train workers to mass produce high-grade toys. It looks like Bandai are currently focusing on the new batches of VF-25s. The YF-29 is rather badly flawed tho. They may not want to revisit it.
  22. Ok, cool, thanks. Just checking cos it's missing in the pre-order pics.
