As if I needed any more evidence that I'm getting to be an old crank -- I prefer the vintage version to what they're showing would be a new modern day souped up Legioss-Tread combo. "Son - what is that?" "Its a combining fighter toy to a new show out of Japan called Mospeada II - The REALLY New Generation" "WHAT?! That's not a fighter combo, check this sucker out, its from a bankrupt company called Toynami wayy back in the day - sweet huh?" "Where did you dig up that ol' dinosaur dad?? Look, its hands have crumbled to nibs..." ---------------- Love the Box Art, but not buying. If Wave had done it in 1/48th as a W.H.A.M.! completed model I would be in love and jumped in...

Sold a Kidney but only raised 34,000 yen, can I do without both?

HOLY MACKEREL! Saw it - 20 awesome parts, only about 5 stupid parts. STUPID - B. Widow in almost any / all combat. Crappy. Not believable, even in a super hero film. And the jump-up in the alien sled and fly around thing? Worst part of the film. What it this Ratatouille where you control the alien with knives in his back?? ARG!! I cried. Leave her on the hover craft, calling down orders or tips or something! And Hawkeye - shooting backwards and connecting? My 10 year old said - "Dad - that was dumb". AWESOME - Too many to list now --- BUT HULK - or good gosh - freeeeeking awesome. E. Norton Whoooo? Bet he was on vacation the opening weekend so he did not have to see what he passed up. He won't be friends with that friend that told him not to be Hulk in the at next 'bomb' they're coming out with. Ha. Great film, they accomplished the impossible making a bunch or super heroes coming together in one film actual cool... Loki Hulk scene at Stark Tower - the best part...

Here's a Monster to go with the Phalanx: http://www.rinkya.com/new/en/auction-w67225413

Too bad people didn't buy them like that at full price - we could maybe get some Invids or Glaugs one day...

A destroid can never look 'too dirty'...

I just got a large CMs Patlabor Pickel baddie and posed it with my smaller Ingram revys and I think it works great. When you have off-scales I think it looks best to have the baddies TOO BIG - making them more menacing. Its not that you, or we, do not like the pods - its just that you have these valiant Valks are dwarfing these little rubber - quite unthreatening - enemy mechs. Maybe get a Hi-metal 1J and get those all grouped together...
-
Best post I've read in a while....

I would remove the cheap battlepods too - just put them somewhere else. The scale is not right and it mucks it up a bit. LOVE the blue 1D between the 2 M&M valks...
-
As I said, I buy and collect the TV series, so I must not mind it too much. But as I also said - these are military weapons, bright white is not only unrealistic, it borders on dorky...
-
ALL THE TV Versions should have been the off white/gray, NOT bright white! ARG They are military vehicles aren't they??? Having said that, I only collect TV, but I can wish can't I? Seeing them side by side, the DYRL is sooo much better. If you do not have a preference GO DYRL! Just don't plan to display it next to a TV version valk (1J or 1A) that has bright white on your shelf later on...
-
"Used and Grimey" sounds perfect...
-
Looking good! Panel lines will be dark though correct?
-
With the 1D pre-order selling out there's a good chance the M&M valks will also make it to re-release...
-
Any progress?
-
That's the whole toy line so we're all in luck...
-
Great to see them EVERYWHERE for $10 or less now. Should have sold my one pod a few months ago. So much for getting to see Inbits or other obscure baddies...
-
Side Cover isn't correct in matching the white, might be Photoshopped though...
-
This will likely sound quite newbish - but wasn't this model in flight wayyy before Minmay became famous? And I hate the design - it looks like it was run over by a large garbage truck...
-
That toy line: EPIC FAIL
-
Not really - because they can re-release the Cavalier with option parts for even more someday...
-
Not sure I could rationalize getting one of those kits to have a 1A head to smash in. I would go as high as $20 for that little accessory, no more But I'm not sure this enemy Softbi is going to be worth it in the finished product. We'll (soon?) see...
-
Not sure - maybe they will read this and give him a reduction. But I was serious about wanting a tan, smashed 1A head accessory...
-
What if they included a smashed VF-1A head unit with Britai?
