    Well IT IS supposed to be the 3rd Generation VF isn't it? ( c r i n g e ) The attention to detail is more than impressive, its awe-inspiring! In episode #2 when the Legioss flies backwards - is that an error? Those are the FOD intakes you speak of correct? That scene always bothered me in that he could have gone to Diver mode and blasted backwards in a much cooler way. Anyway - this needs one more release with both 1I and Z heads (green and red) versions. That way all your customers can have the blue soldier and the red or green fighter to display. I know some crazies out there will try to make this one truly variable. If I tried that I'm sure I would end up divorced, or dead, and a ruined $1,000 resin kit...

    I think they might - in all seriousness. To be a fly (who knows japanese of course) on the wall in the Yamato meeting room when they see this post - the conversation has probably long happened by now...

    I just looked up at my 1/12 Yamato Scopedog and thought, if that line was a financial success for Yamato, wonder if and when they see this Legioss sculpt what they might think?

    Drooping air-brakes? Simulating 'loss of power' to motors? Motor actuators? Tires flattened on one side to show weight? FREAKING MASTERPIECE Guess I'll be getting the 01I Greeny version next for resting fighter mode...

    Ha! E-Surance! GREAT take. That is horrible, just awful. I have twin 3 year olds and a 1 year old - we'll stick with the Clone Wars and Patlabor for now thanks. This would be beneath them...

    Agree with Jenius in that they need to do a gimmick, like a figure you only get with the Phalanx or Spartan purchase. But I would rather see a Yamato chain-base / hanger sections. You get all the versions and you can build the complete hanger...

    Saw it in 3D and liked the film, and even the 3D aspect. From the horror I felt in seeing the original still shots of Hopkins in that get-up, I cannot believe they managed to pull off a pretty good flick that I enjoyed. While I liked Iron Man much better, the concept of Iron Man is just so cool and I think many different teams could have made a good movie from that idea. But to make something of a 'Viking Super Hero' that isn't lame is a much greater accomplishment...

    Really needs a snarling / fighting pose. with even more limited articulation IMO. This will look odd on a shelf with our 1Js. Like they decided to be friends instead of duking it out... Disappointed overall...

    So when I see an SMS Jagd Doga FULL KIT, or Marasai Conversion kit - those are recasts off something else? Who? GSystem? Do they ask permission - did they ask WAVE if they could recast off their sculpt or are they just running an illegal operation?

    Panzer World Galient: Dragonar Original OP - If only the show and mecha were as cool as this opening! - show is almost unwatchable though - I nominate it for best opening song too (along with aura battler of course):
  11. DarrinG
    SMS Question - I always thought they made original conversion kits, or full kits. But I saw a 'proshop' sale for an SMS Galient OVA piece that must have been recast from a WAVE Exclusive Resin Model. Is this normal? Would WAVE license them to recast an exclusive very hard to find kit? Or is someone just illegally recasting and calling it SMS?

    Horrifying and laughable at the same time. Speaking of time, these previews free up more of mine cuz I won't be in front of the TV for this - ever...

    LOVED Last Red Shoulder and ROOTS - Big Battle was pretty good too Enjoyed Mellowlink - Great change of pace from the others...

    Have not seen Irvine or Finder - the others I enjoyed just to get more Votoms. As for the updated cgi, with stupid kids thing -- I guess at some point there's more money to gain from getting a whole new snot-nosed, following than gleaning the last few dollars from the aging original fans. Yeah we can afford to shell out top-dollar for limited run toys and collectibles, but getting just 1 dollar each from millions of new (insert name here?) is far more profitable...

    WHO said these Alpha's were junk?!? This guy on eBay didn't think so apparently... $348 + $15 shipping... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&rt=nc&nma=true&item=130509182186&si=bbPJHuM5eSL5b30QucZs9tkfISQ%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT#ht_660wt_883

    Any news or rumors from Yamato about this line? Reactive Armor? Type Zero? With re-releases for the Ingram's I would have thought they'd keep going...

    Clicked the link thinking "This Again?!" -- but it looks pretty awesome. Explains how it all started...

    I do not know - but what is the difference between the regular DMZ and the 'Material Version'? After looking at both lines (yamato and the dmzs) I decided to go with Yamato because of the pilot figures. The Microman thing just doesn't look good to me. Although the weathering effect on the DMZs looks so tempting. Been watching for them to drop in price and I'm still waiting...

    I would not be surprised if Toynami went Inbit Shock Trooper after their Glaug, in 1/55th... Or maybe the command ship, since it can be done in Pink, Green and Gray with little retooling...
  21. DarrinG
    A Toynami Scott Cyclone just went on eBay for $610 + $20 shipping --- zoiks! I did not know these were going for that much... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&rt=nc&nma=true&item=120704905321&si=bbPJHuM5eSL5b30QucZs9tkfISQ%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT#ht_3255wt_890

    Sorry if this is somewhere in here already - release date yet?

    Hired RinkYa? Don't lots of global folks use it to bid on Yahoo Japan? Is there a better way? Less expensive? - I'd like to know. Just bought 2 Bandai Dunbine figures for a nice price of $27, only to have the final RinkYa price be $65! Want to dump the RinkYa service if possible... Anywhooo - can we can a complete set of scans from your winning Mospeada item?
  24. DarrinG
    So you were not the final winner?
  25. DarrinG
    Want the CF 1A but still not sure - what am I looking at?? -- $95 with shipping? Want it to be $65 total...
