Wow, i actually remember that thread. It doesn't seem like it was that long ago but it's coming up to 2 years. Do you sell the rest or do you have some stuff left over?
-
LOL! That was actually pretty funny.

LOL! Actually got this a whole day later. Unfortunately, may have to cancel depending on funds at the time. Sept is going to be an expensive month. -
Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
Sandman replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Yeah, unicorn stuff seems to be everywhere. -
I mean stealth as in regards that I jokingly came up with this theory that this is an attempt from Arcadia to raise the price of the vf-1 by first claiming its a premium release until they eventually stop releasing the non-premium vfs and the premium becomes the standard releases (with the higher price) moving forward.
-
This is a good point. Arcadia is really behind the game by not offering all tampos instead of stickers. Charging extra for that is a blatant cash grab. Unfortunately considering how well they have sold out, most fans seem to onboard for this stealth price increase.
-
Yeah there's two points of watch for: 1- NY currency conversion 2- Paypal's currency conversion If you are not paying attention, you can get dinged hard and be paying a lot more than you should be. I've had it happen to me.
-
Yeah they probably have data that says out of x number of yf-29s are sold, y number are sold of the fast pack.
-
I'd be shocked if the m.lovers got released.
-
Well, the color change is what I meant by significant change. Up till now, they have planned to release only products that have been available through bandai or arcadia. There has never been a Rod colored version so even if the mold is the same, the end product is something that hasn't been released before. I'd love to see a mock-up of the color they plan to use.

https://world.taobao.com/item/552248947922.htm?spm=a312a.7700714.0.0.6HE7JW#detail its not really exciting. They don't have one painted up yet for a pic. It looks like you can select either alto of rod's if you trust the text.

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002

Damn missed it. -
It seems like the bootleggers are going to be offering a rod yf-29b version of the yf-29 super parts. This I believe is the first example of them making a significant change in a product.
-
I'm finding this discussion really fascinating. Some really good info here. This is one of my favorite threads atm.
-
Isn't that the point of Arcadia's creepy dolls. Don't they sell like crazy?
-
I hope this means we'll be seeing yamato perform this tactic in 2202. I was bummed they didn't use the iconic scene for 2199.
-
I hope we see an Orguss 02 from the ova.
-
Is there any differences with the renewal? I notice they add a r to the gx number, something the macross dxs don't do with reissues.
-
Yeah they definitely should have included those. Are we suppose to buy another add on pack? Or will they not even release it? This is as dumb as the v1 tornado parts (or set that includes the valk) not coming with those powered up weapons.
-
Some interesting points. I come from from the IT field. Ever since i was in school pursuing my degree, my instructors always hammered into us, don't waste time trying to reinvent the wheel, just steal it (code whatever) and modify it to suit your needs. However some things were not allowed to be stolen (example copyrighted photos that you want to use in your website). So there that real thin line on what's acceptable and not-acceptable. Not debating just pointing out an interesting fact. This reminds me of Marvel comics in the 90s. When the spectator market was expanding the market, Marvel kept raising their prices citing printing costs rising as the cause. Recently a read a book called comic wars which describes how Ronald Perelman brought Marvel to bankruptcy. There is part which discusses the aforementioned price increases. The printing cost excuse was total bullshit. They raised the prices simply because they wanted the increase shareholder profit margins.
-
Wow preorders sold out even at that price.
-
More like the shelf warmer sale.
-
Does yahoo extend the auction after there is a bid? If so what is the purpose of the sniper bid then?
-
They got it wrong. one to open one for just in case one to never take out of the box. Well for me anyways....

LOL! OMG! Only Toynami. LMAO!
