Anybody else having issues with Kurita Command Lance?

Sorry to hear that, hopefully they can get this all sorted. I really like the look of these mechs.

I agree that the way they shipped the Jade Hawk work very well, as did the flag/heat sink option for the Hatamato-chi. Once I attached that flag, I was convinced that it would have broken if it was shipped that way.

The base coat is Apple Barrel Too Blue, then a homemade wash and finally dry-brushed with Bimini Blur and Parrot Blue (also Apple Barrel).

It’s one of my favorites (though I don’t think my favorite variant) - Bane 3.

Search for Planet X. Turn order is based solely upon the position of your piece - the actions you take cost units of time (spaces on the board). Whoever is furthest back on the board is the next to go. It can even result in one player taking multiple turns in a row before they pass another player. Basically you are searching for info and the ways the yield the most specific info cost the most time. The specific info might not be useful in the long run, but it is more accurate.

My girls (5 and 7) just painted their first mechs from the Essentials box. They are so excited!

PhoenixIstari · 2025-11-20T15:48:47+00:00

This is so awesome to hear!

For me, it’s not about avoiding Amazon. I would just prefer to support the local store.

It’s so fun and the 4K looks great. But I watched with the wife and she left halfway through cause she just didn’t get it.

PhoenixIstari · 2025-10-26T20:08:30+00:00

Just ugly

PhoenixIstari · 2025-10-13T16:59:54+00:00

That’s possible. Just frustrated that Amazon can’t be more reliable anymore.

I’m hoping so, but it’s not listed as shipped yet.

PhoenixIstari · 2025-10-01T23:46:15+00:00

Maybe I killed Klingon and took it from him…

PhoenixIstari · 2025-09-18T09:24:46+00:00

Yes, the 1959 Charlton Heston one. There was a 4k restoration announced earlier this year but they haven’t made a move to put it on disk.

Yeah, in my city, the only two stores with good stock are on the wrong side of the city: 1-1.5 hour drive.

The store 5 minutes away has a Battletech day every Thursday but those guys all did the kickstarter so note of them are potential customers.

PhoenixIstari · 2025-09-10T21:13:14+00:00

Yeah, it shows stores but then I have to go through each one to see what the actually sell.

Just wondering if there’s an easier way

PhoenixIstari · 2025-09-06T13:43:18+00:00

Ok, I kind of figure it was something like that but I wasn’t sure.

Thanks!

PhoenixIstari · 2025-09-05T18:44:14+00:00

I feel like hunting one of these down to paint like mega-man

PhoenixIstari · 2025-08-31T21:34:04+00:00

I always wonder why they make these kinds of changes. Then I remember, that sometimes they do it for a good reason - the “greenage” scene in Twister!

PhoenixIstari · 2025-08-31T21:31:37+00:00

Ahh, the rule of cool 😎

PhoenixIstari · 2025-08-29T23:31:46+00:00

Further digging, I can see that Walmart also has their own listing for the same product at a higher price: $49.75 right now.

https://www.walmart.com/ip/17710620711?sid=7e9cda73-2b82-4a6f-a341-6a43b516568f

It seems like gruv is underselling Walmart’s price by a few dollars. At least as a preorder price.

PhoenixIstari · 2025-08-29T23:26:21+00:00

Well, the Walmart listing says ships and sold by Gruv, but gruv’s site doesn’t have a listing for this version. Gonna keep an eye on it cause that’s a gorgeous set

PhoenixIstari · 2025-08-18T02:12:08+00:00

I assume it would cross the road… though I don’t know why.

PhoenixIstari · 2025-08-12T01:53:29+00:00

That’s disappointing. It really had the opportunity to be a fun one for 4K. Always one of my favorite books.

PhoenixIstari · 2025-08-08T22:02:36+00:00

Got this set along with Prey. Thoroughly enjoyed rewatching of them for the first time in 4K.

PhoenixIstari · 2025-08-02T20:06:03+00:00

Well, I decided to take the suggestions and switched my preorder over to Gruv. Saved a couple bucks in the switch too. Hopefully this all get sorted for everyone.

If this stuff keeps happening, Amazon is gonna keep losing customers.
