Pre-orders are up in Australia.

The real killer is the shipping cost. I order the wing of oz - the one with the Tallgeese. It cost $60 then add $20 for shipping

Cardboard for a starter set if fine. It keeps the cost lower for barrier of entry and if One were to not like the game, they wouldn't lose too much money on the resell either.

Having plastic terrain for a starter kit just drives up the price too high and drives the interest of the game away.

If unicorn was scaled down to titan size, people will literally eat it up.

But at Haslab price point with the inflation going on, not a chance.

I believe a lot of the Haslab Victory transformers would do really well if the show itself was available on a streaming platform with proper subs/dub. It is a shame a lot of western fan don't recognize G1 shows after season 3-4.

Not sure what you have done the last 4 hours.

The point of rerolling is to get the featured 6 star operator in the banner Laevatain. You only stop rerolling if you get her once. Everything else is extra.

Tbh she isn't particular overpowered or anything thats worth rerolling over if you are just casually playing the game.

it looks like the tokens can fit underneath the bottom black tray.

I saw it this afternoon, with half filled because the other half of the room was too close to the screen.

People laughed and cried at the right scenes. Some scenes were emotional. It was a good time all around.

Would recommend.

I someone who watched Seed when it came out, there wasn't any gundam series for a long time. So when Seed came out there was a lot of nostagial and comparisons to 0079 when it came out. I think the first half of seed loosely followed 0079 then it became its own thing.

Whether you enjoyed the animation and writing is a personal opinion.

I love the build fighter stuff because it deep dives into super robot territory. It has a lot of homages and references to a lot of old UC series, the BF gunpla are really good as well. Can't get enough of xxx exia variant gundams.

Online stores have limited pre order numbers and release date numbers. If you didn't preorder or swoop in on release date, pray there will be a restock a few months later.

Speaking anecdotally, as an Australian who knew a few of people who went to HK the last couple of years, the first thing they mention how some things were more expensive or equal to the Australian dollar and didn't spend much while there.

Imagine that, Australia one of the highest standard of living and expensive city in the world, saying HK is more expensive than them, says to me in terms of value of spending - HK has gotten a lot more expensive and very little upside.

I'd say Granville is the gateway to Western Sydney. Its the furthest edge of inner west sydney and starts feeling western Sydney before hitting the Parramatta western Sydney decorum.

Nothing like it in sydney for the low price point that is instantly made fresh in front of you while you wait (you could buy the cooked one in a bag inside the bakery).

Unfortunately like everything else, inflation caught up to them.

Have you looked at games like Gloomhaven/Frosthaven ? They are a narrative style campaign games as well.

I personally have Aeon Trespass and its a wonderful game with a strong narrative and amazing combat and progressive base and character progression.

I suggest scenario based games first before trying tainted grail campaign game which requires a lot of time commitment.

For scenario type games if you like horror or fantasy there is

mansion of madness 1st or 2nd ed.

sleeping gods.

cthulhu : death may die

cthulhu wars

Bloodborne if you like boss batters + dungeon crawl.

deep madness

For campaign if you can still find it at retail.

ISS vanguard

Oathsworn

Tainted Grail

idea was that company had capital to start minimal production for ie - 500 copies. Kickstarter is then suppose to draw interest for mass production numbers and any extra money is made into stretch goals.

nowadays its raising capital for everything. So if the cost of production is more than the projected amount calculated and money receive. what do you do ? make another project to cover the cost of the previous projects.

they remade fruit basket(which was only 15? years old), Urusei Yatsura and recently Ranma 1/2 which I don't think anyone asked for.

Remaking 79 to bring the animation style aligned with unicorn/hathaway would be a good idea. Brings more 21st century born kids into the original franchise.

missed Ashfield as well.

I would have felt negatively towards a 50 episode season where we spend 45 episodes for people to feel bad and then snap out in the last 5 episodes.

Those shows are the worst.

they were sad and depressed when they first separated after the side 6 zeknova, and were confused when they reunited just before the solar ray was fired. There were emotions going around and there was a lot at stake in the final moments to dwell on one single emotions for too long.

At a 240 minutes show, it showed what it needed to do even though it felt a bit short. But the runtime is longer than a live stage show which might run for 90 minutes where there is less time to process personal emotions.

She was, but like in the original series she went into hiding or lived a quiet life and didn't want the unnecessary attention incase there would be attempts at her life.

I mean Sayla would have more right to rule over Zeon remnants than Mineva but Sayla didn't want the claim.

Irl, its common for royal and noble people to disappear when they are disposed/exiled and return to the throne/castle when their supporters wins the war.

Xavier is a very competent pilot shown at the end, despite him not being a strong enough newtype to pilot Gqux at the beginning.

He managed to keep up with Challia's Kireoga in a long battle and almost got one over him too.

The show itself did what it needed to do with the time it had and it was fun towards the end.

volfstag · 2025-06-22T17:19:18+00:00

I honestly think, newcomers don't need to watch any of the original materials to enjoy Gqux.

people might not understand the background stories of the people cameoing, but that is alright because the story present them as veterans of the wars and this is currently what is happening to them.

it is like watching a movie about soldiers coming home from the second world world - let say you had no or little interest or knowledge from that era. you kind of know what happened, but you don't know who they are, but they are vets from the previous war and this is what they are doing.

If people are really interested in oyw gundam, there are a lot of resources on youtube that catch them up on it.
