Reïvaj Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 [...] It says 'slide the bottom lock to pull out the hand/wrist. You can switch between 4 different hands. There is also extra joint on the root of hand joints' [...] I'm sorry, I might be missing something (obviously I can't read kanji). This quote seems just to indicate how to remove/switch hands, not that they can stay attached in fighter mode. Someone clarify? I guess that can be understood that way too Quote
Renato Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 Oh, no.. Don't even... For the love of... !! I swear I'm gonna have a fit. (cries) Quote
ff95gj Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 I love you guys. A bunch of sarcastic paranoid. How I feel at home here. Quote
pud333 Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 I'll can tell everyone exactly how the hands work... once I have it in my own hands. Quote
aurance Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 Heh. I don't understand all these weird politics and emotion behind a pretty straightforward question. All I'd like to know is whether it says one way or another about the hands before I spend $200+ on a toy. I guess the answer is still "don't know." Either way I'm not losing any sleep over it. Quote

No weird politics involved regarding your question, it's just that we're a bunch of trigger happy fans waiting to hit the panic button No matter what we're talking about, there's a high chance it will get blown out of proportion!!!

valhary Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 anyone can confirm? listen bandai are delaying release dates at least in the myth cloth ex series for problems in their china factories so we should expect a delay or not to worry about Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 Is that 5040 Yen that I see? Ouch! I love the overloaded with ordnance look of the 171's super pack, arm missile pallet included... it's just has such a cool overkill vibe to it without it looking overdone like the YF-29's or the 25's Tornado packs. OK when are THESE parts coming out? This is totallly how i rememer teh 171 from the show....all armored up with anti vajra gear or whatever. WANT WANT WANT. assuming tamashi web exclusive again? Quote
xrentonx Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 Goddamn, I'm actually prayin they are Tamashii exclusives. What a fu*cked up world we live in. Quote
pud333 Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 They will be. Just like the previous armour and super parts releases. Quote
IXTL Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 It's mentioned in the article that the parts will be web exclusive. The link to the Tamashii web shop is also provided in the scan. Quote
Mommar Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 When do we start the group buy for the 171 parts? Quote
Renato Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 I say we start debating whether or not the armour parts are exclusives, in spite of it actually saying they are, in the article. You know, because that's the MW way. Quote

You know, because that's the MW way. I agree. Let's start with whether or not this scan is from a reliable source. ...I'M KIDDING! (maybe) Quote
Archer Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Well, since Nippon Yasan didn't stop taking orders this late in the game, I'm assuming their either really confident in getting a large stock (haven't heard them failing to deliver yet, even with the YF-29), already have confirmed large stocks, or didn't get to many orders when they had such an inflated price. Either way, at a steady $200 as compared to the $260+ that others here paid, I decided to go ahead and pre order and paid up front. Hopefully I get it, but if not, meh This will be my first modern Bandai (after -27), so I'm excited to see how it turns out, especially with the new designer! Quote
ron5864 Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Wow! This looks way better than the super pack Yamato VF-17. Quote
kanedaestes Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 In all fairness that has to do with the design of the FP themselves. The VF-17 one is 15 years old and wasn't meant to be what the VF-171 FP is which takes more cues from the VF-25 as per the show. Quote

Graham Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 all armored up with anti vajra gear or whatever. Somehow, I read that as "anti Viagra gear" LOL! Graham Quote
Jasonc Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Somehow, I read that as "anti Viagra gear" LOL! Graham Isn't that what buying all these toys are, in the first place? I mean, it does take the other half out of the moment at least. Quote
Graham Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Isn't that what buying all these toys are, in the first place? I mean, it does take the other half out of the moment at least. Haha, true! Despite our best fanboy wish, the girl's just aint attracted by the long nosecones. Graham Quote
NeoverseOmega Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Hmmm, maybe if I took the vibrating mechanism out of my cellphone and installed it in my valks nosecone we could make it mutually stimulating. . . . . Awesome, I now have a project! Quote

eriku Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 Somehow, I read that as "anti Viagra gear" LOL! Graham I'm pretty sure Anti-Viagra gear would look exactly like the suit Sean Connery wears in Zardoz. Quote
Graham Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 I also just received an email from Anime Export that my order is in stock and ready to ship Quote
