DewPoint Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 So we need a windowed box Destroid release to balance things out? Quote

Since it was packed in Fighter mode, Bandai should've used the flip type lid box like the old VFHM so it will still have a window. Photo from Jenius' Anymoon site. Quote

seti88 Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 If only it was true eh? Been wishing for bandai to release angel birds under the HMR brand for a while now. It seems such a good opportunity for selling multiple VF-1 in a go, especially if they did a stand as well... oh well, that shall remain a dream, i don't hold my breath for bandai.... Quote
ScrambledValkyrie Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 While Bandai might be hesitant to release the Angel Bird, knowing it’s a more obscure livery, it could have a high likelihood of people buying multiples for complete squadrons like in that photo, similar to people buying multiple CFs to army build.

no3Ljm Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Hahaha! Thanks everyone for being a sport. Yes, I have to agree that Bandai should release a set of this. And include a special display stand to have it display it this way. Anyone remember Bandai's HCM-Pro line? They made a special display stand for Exia and the rest of the 00 Gundam figures. Maybe they can made something like that for the HMR line if ever they decided to do the Angel Birds and Fan Racer. What you guys think? Quote
ArchieNov Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) I really don't understand that pose. What's it supposed to be doing anyway? It's neither funny nor cute nor cool looking. Wonder why all the kids do it. Edited April 17, 2019 by ArchieNov Quote

It's neither funny nor cute nor cool looking. Wonder why all the kids do it. It’s the Sentai pose , it’s suppose to inflict fear to your enemies by telling them this is their last chance to surrender before getting their ass kicked . But in reality is a pose that brings out the kid in you , mostly due to the old shows and anime’s that you have watched as a kid . I did something similar in a morning group stretching exercise and everyone had a fun time . You should see the facial expression people from age 23 to 58 were making. Some try to look evil and some try to make a different pose . Everyone became kids for a couple of minutes. Quote
ArchieNov Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Ah okay. So they're trying to imitate sentai poses. Thanks for the explanation. I used to watch sentai as a kid (Bioman, Shaider, Maskman, etc) many years before Power Rangers ever became a thing in the US. But I still can't find the appeal in people all doing the same exact pose. Maybe that's also why I failed to recognize it. In sentai, everyone's supposed to have a different pose and these are supposed to be a lot more outrageous than the one I keep seeing people do. Quote
easnoddy Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Angel Birds wild have been a much better anniversary scheme than the silly Messer scheme. Quote

The cost of each of my 6 was $94.66 and if you can wait then it will be that price plus shipping available in May coming by registered ferry. I don't mind waiting. Car maintenance and the recent DX VF-1A TV Max killed my wallet. I'll Def buy yours, If you still up for it in may. Quote
ArchieNov Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Oh so it's a dance move. That makes more sense now. Thanks! Quote
