I have Detolfs, they are my favorite. I was always thinking of ways to make it adjustable. I was thinking of designing something with hex locking nuts. But yeah they fit most figures fine Except the Macross Quarter and Space Battleship Yamato

Don't you age slower in space? Hence characters who are 40-50 could still be "young"

Was he in the US cartoons ever, I guess I just lost interest after the movie and didn't see G2 or much of the new stuff as a kid. I loved the G1 stuff though.

My girlfriend doesn't even have half the recordings of her band she played on. Crazy. What band were/are you in? And that all said. I am with Geoffrey (my old employer from many moons ago) and Kevin Seconds ... YOUNG 'TILL I DIE. Now who will be at Frank & Sons this morning? I am in a band called Against the Grain NYHC since 1996. (we added the NYHC after a couple of other bands popped up with that name) Its made up of members of Agnostic Front, Cause for Alarm, Faction Zero and some members went on to play for 25 Ta Life and Downlow. We are all much older now and have other priorities but it was fun while it lasted. Not officially broken up though Cool. I always like when my two favorite interests cross paths (Hardcore and Robots). I know most of those bands but my favorites have always been Token Entry, SOIA, Burn and Murphy's Law.

hmm like when I went looking for Agnostic Fronts United Blood and the price was ridiculous, then years later their bassist joined my band and I asked him for one and he said he doesnt even have one of his own, he had given all them out over the years and he didnt wanna spend all that money on one..AND HES ON THE RECORD. My girlfriend doesn't even have half the recordings of her band she played on. Crazy. What band were/are you in? And that all said. I am with Geoffrey (my old employer from many moons ago) and Kevin Seconds ... YOUNG 'TILL I DIE. Now who will be at Frank & Sons this morning?

Yeah I had to explain to some co workers why I bought a $250 Daltanious at Anime Expo... they were at Anime Expo, so they were not as confused as most "adults" I expalin my hobby to, but they still couldn't believe I was spending THAT MUCH on "toys"
I think every hobby is viewed that way. I look at record collectors in the hardcore scene and wonder, why on earth would you spend $20, $100, $500 on a piece of vinyl that you already have the same music on your iPod. Multuiple copies of said same record, because they are on different color vinyl.
Or look at people who go to see big pop stars and pay $500-2000 for tickets to see a concert. I pay $10 and get to hang with the band and go on stage and sing and mosh. Makes no sense to me.
Or sporting events. People pay $1000 a ticket to see a stanley cup game. I watch it on TV. For free. or go if I can get a $75 original price ticket.
As far as growing up, I guess some hobbies are considered childish for unknown reasons. We watched cartoons and collected robots as kids so there for it's childish. We played hockey as kids, but that is an acceptable adult hobby. Go figure.
Oh and try explaining to anyone why you just paid $1500 for a choo choo train. (Because they do not understand it's a Lionel Vision series all die cast NYC Hudson with advanced electronics, every feature imaginable and one of the most beautiful chunks of die cast I have ever seen)

Matty hasn't been selling as well lately, wonder why. MOTU releases used to be gone within minutes. Now they hang on for days or weeks, are they just producing WAY more now?

if BBTS is honoring that price of $239 I may pick up another. I paid $295ish from AmiAmi because of the sh*tty dollar.

Pewter were nice, but I mean full color and posable. Or at least as nice as the gashapon figures I use instead.

I wish they did nice full color pilot figures, like the latest star wars figures. for all SOC releases. I'd love to display them together.

"To me it's a much better deal than the super7 stormtrooper Shogun warrior."
Exactly my thought. This is still pretty cool even if it's not the gokin Go Lion we all wanted. If this sells well whos to say they wont look into doing a diecast one? They do diecast Disney/Pixar Cars toys so they have experience.

Thank you! I'm not edge anymore, but most of the music I listen to is. Still really into that scene. You can see a bunch of my ink is some of my posts on here, tons more robots Not robot related at all, except that I learned this at Frank & Sons... but my girlfriend collects Disney pins and we found out most of them these days are fakes. People send one real one to china and have copies made and sell them on ebay and trade them like crazy at the parks. They are an easy target, and Disney is now cracking down. Wouldn't be surprised if the same thing were happening with DX robots. Sad, but keeps reminding me to just enjoy the toys and don't expect to do this for profit. Thats a dynamite tattoo. Im gonna guess you're ure staightedge by your name.

I'm pretty sure this will not be sold at retail. Maybe if it sold out in 10 minutes online and they knew it would sell even better at retail. But it's been on sale for days on Matty collector. That's bad in their world.

Gold, I'm waiting for your review to see if I pick this thing up. The anime was definitely pretty bad, so my reasons for buying God Sigma are pretty much based on the coolness factor of the figure. So, Gold, it is up to you to make Bandai another $250 bucks... or not! ;D }D Hi Everyone, Mr.themazingerz Good Evening It's a Pleasure to Write to you That I Suggest to you & for Everyone who didn't saw the anime to watch it because I found really interesting about The Robot's , it's Weapons & There Enemy here is the torrent's link www.nyaa.eu/?page=torrentinfo&tid=200301I hope you & everyone enjoy the show ;D And me too waiting for Your Great Review for this Great Figure No seeders on that torrent. I really am dying to see this show too! I grew up with the toy, never knew what it was from so I made up my own backstory as a kid.
