  1. WAVE is already doing the 1/100 kits. I wish Arcadia would have started out with a VF-1A CF - Special Battle Damaged Edition, instead of the ugly anniversary valk. Imagine a weathered, all shot up Fodder? It would include BOTH DYRL and TV super parts and heads. What a cool way to kick off their new ownership . . .
  2. Can someone tell me the difference between these 2 DVD sets? http://www.amazon.com/Mobile-Suit-Gundam-Kôji-Tsujitani/dp/B0002YLD4Q http://www.amazon.com/Mobile-Suit-Gundam-F91/dp/B001K98ML4/ref=pd_cp_mov_0 And does anyone have a used Very Good set to sell cheaper?
  3. I have the Original Layzner SPEC and I HIGHLY recommend it. Fantastic piece: Here's a used one with free shipping at a good price: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Blue-Comet-SPT-Layzner-XS-02-Tamashii-Spec-Layzner-Figure-Bandai-Japan-USED-/261456477085?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item3ce0053b9d I will not be getting the new Mk II as I feel the design and transformation is forced and I can be content with the one I have ( even though I LOVE the SPEC line ) But they are supposed to be working on a Zakaal and I will snatch that up right away if it comes to life . . . Oh - and Layzner IS great . . .
  4. One of these will be the movie that 'jumped the shark' - and end the super hero movies for a while. Kind of like Warrant and Poison to 80s hair bands - it made everyone realize enough was enough . . .
  5. Just so it sees some light of day, here is a colorized Mospeada Illustration I worked on a few years back. With glane21's permission, I took his original Legioss pose and turned it into a red 1Z. Was going to add Ray's ride armour and a host of other Bits approaching. Would need some reason to finish it as it has a long way to go still . . . Glane's original drawing . . .
  6. Highly doubt it . . .
  7. Its a shame Arcadia decided on that out of the gate . . .
  8. Having my young kids watch the original A-Team on Netflics. Watching them run around the house singing -- "Da-da-DAaaaa - ba da daaaaaa. Bada Dada Da Daaaa - duhhh duh duh duh daaaaa . . . . "
  9. Put fist covers on that thing in tank mode! Always HATED that you could see the fists in the anime . . .
  10. Right you are CD. They are not close to the line art, but look fun for Revys anyway . . .
  11. This is just crazy cool - nice work. If you find the time - can you take a pic with a pop can or something for scale?
  12. CD - You did not over pay it seems for your 1/8th stuff. Dog and Round Mover sets just went for 52,000 and 24,000 respectively . . . https://www.rinkya.com/en/auction-v347173624 https://www.rinkya.com/en/auction-t374380495
  13. Love that valk . . .
  14. Revy size Ingram carrier? Google translate does not seem to help - are these custom? I want 2! http://worldlydesires.militaryblog.jp/d2011-12-31.html
  15. Has a bidder at 180,000 --- https://www.rinkya.com/en/auction-b153962606
  16. Saw it 3D yesterday. Liked it. Battle scenes were great, effects fantastic. Favorite moment was when he breathes the white fire beam for the first time. I can confirm the Zilla design is a little too fat and cuddly-bear like. The first full shot of him I was more amused and awed. Give it a 7.75 out of 10 - and think its likely the best Zilla movie ever . . .
  17. I don't . . . like . . . frivolous . . . posting . . . ( arg - tried to do all that in sep posts as a joke and it won't let me! )
  18. Yep - see right there? That was just another post to pump your numbers . . . : P
  19. Such a well written post. This goes for almost everything we fans complain about . . .
  20. Not a blu-ray, but picked up a fan subbed set of DVDs for $22 bucks on evilbay - plus free shipping? Hard to beat that price. Subs messed up and so-so at many spots. And the names are all wrong which is strange because you can hear them saying Mimsy! But the sub is 'Memgen' or something? First time seeing the series. The fight scenes are bad, and badly animated. Not believable at first - just stupid later as 1 against 20 gets old fast. But the characters and awesome. And the premise of the plot is very intriguing to me - dimensions and time being squooshed together from a weapon going wrong. They develop a strange future world with nice detail. Best part is the character interactions - along with the ship's interior. After watching a few episodes I feel like going with them and making the Glomar my home. I have not seen another set of these DVDs go up for sale but I will post alink here if I do. Worth $22 for sure . . .
  21. I can't afford the kits but can afford the photos! - so I will post some here for u. Will buy the Cocanna figure from the Round Mover kit if you do not want her . . .
  22. Interesting notes though: My CF VF-1's tires made dents in the lacquered wood. Not sure how. At first I saw a mark for each tire and thought that a bit of rubber had melted onto the surface and the tires would be damaged. NOPE - no damage - and nothing on the surface. Just divots - or mini dents in the wood? Skull-1's tires displayed for the same amount of time had no effect on the surface. Its like alien blood! Yet it did not burn through the black paint on the wood. How? Little mini dents is the best way I can describe it - with no residue. Other notes --- in moving all the bots in a short amount of time and contrasting the look and feel of each -- the Yamato Ingram is the most impressive piece in the collection. It weighs a TON and oozes - I say, OOZES - high end collectable. Shockingly nice. The Garland on the other hand felt cheap and floppy (looks pretty good tho). Could not wait to get it back in the case lest it disintegrate. The GBP and WAVE Galient the other most impressive offerings IMO . . .
