Mommar Posted October 25, 2021 Posted October 25, 2021 I hope somebody can modify their old missile pod designs to accommodate the new gun pod here so we can have GOOD looking accessory pods instead of the terrible thermometer design here. Also the more I look at it the less the longer tail in Fighter, and especially Gerwalk, looks. Quote

For the security of not doing pre-order madness I think it's fair. I ordered Hayate at Luna and I'm thinking of getting Mirage too now before the price inflates. Quote

no3Ljm Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 For those who doesn't like the thermometer pods, you guys think there's an 85% chance that we can re-use the 31 charger pods on the 31AX? Also, I noticed that on the item description for Mirage's AX, it doesn't come with 'Walküre' stand like Hayate's. Quote
kajnrig Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) Let's not forget there are the options by Sanity is Optional, et al, from the 3D-printed pods thread. They might not be a simple drag and drop solution either, but then again I don't imagine that being a major hindrance: Edited October 26, 2021 by kajnrig Quote

You won't be able to attach the gun pod in fighter mode even if it does, though. Quote

I dont see much differences on the legs or the back fuselage, so i have a strong feeling its interchangeable with the 31 charger pods. Quote

That's what I'm hoping for. Now, I might join the PO madness for Mirage due to her color is now closer to red. Quote

Perhaps it has something to do with the Air jenius logo colors that mirage has on her valk this time around 🤷♂️ So mirage's 'Red' will natch correspondingly the red/blue Air Jenius colors... *Speculation till able to view the movie...* hmmm....is the valk jenius logo color inverted? Or maybe the hanger has a different logo take...as in blue wing on the right/red wing on the left... minor detail i suppose.....mirage's valk doesn't really say air jenius anyway...

The last toy was Magenta, this one is Magenta. Somebody has some rods and cones out of whack. Yep, it was magenta-purpleish. And yes, I also don't like the previous color of her toy. I guess my eyes are just deceiving me with these new promo pics that it looks a little bit red than the previous color. Or maybe it just got balanced since there's more greys around it compared to the last version which is more color splashed. Now it feels like the personal colors are more of an accent. Quote
Rhubarbarian Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) The pre-release product photos for her 31C were also red (because toy manufacturers are terrified if they make something vaguely pink, the male demographic won't buy it). I assume the actual product will be her normal magenta again. Edited October 27, 2021 by Rhubarbarian Quote

Looking at the photos you posted, that magenta is somehow closer to 31AX that I posted above on the right compared to the 31C that I posted on the left. Not sure if this has something to do with the monitor or screen color settings but with your guys argument, I guess I have to assume that it will still going to have the same magenta tone for now. I was just kind of thinking of getting this 31AX model instead due to its color since I'm seeing it's redder than wait for Arad's 31AX if it's going to get made. Oh well. Quote

The last toy was Magenta, this one is Magenta. Somebody has some rods and cones out of whack. Only if you boil it down to an 8-pack of crayons, hue-spread-wise. The -31C toy doesn't match the show, and the new -31AX doesn't match anything that came before. No, none of them are bright scarlet red. But it doesn't mean they match each other, nor the show. (of course, having not seen the movie, I don't know what shade the -31AX is truly supposed to be). But I do know the DX -31C doesn't match the TV series nor most other -31C merchandise. Quote
NUNS Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 Just put in my pre-order at Luna. First time dealing with them so hope all goes well 🤞 Quote
davidwhangchoi Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 when does the new show/movie release on tv? i want to watch before preordering Quote

borgified Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 Or maybe this thought… I’m sure that someone will download a torrent link and you can watch it before it gets released over here in the NA shores @davidwhangchoi. Quote
seti88 Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 torrent link? what is that? nudge nudge wink wink.... anyway isnt the in thing nowadays streaming? oops 🙊 Quote

borgified Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 I think @aurance is planning a Mirage Woodland 31ax with the correct colour responding Silpheed Armor/Super Combo (when it gets green lit). Quote

borgified Posted November 2, 2021 Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) You quoted the wrong play @NUNS. It’s Othello, not Romeo and Juliette if you remember correctly. “To pre-order or not to pre-order. That is the question”. It’s not Twelfth Night or Juilius Caesar. Edit: Should I bring John DeLancie and gives us a few jokes for this madness? Edited November 2, 2021 by borgified Quote
