Has anyone else ever noticed that the Spartas' transformation is basically:
-
The only other time (and that was shortly before it was destroyed), as in Macross II, where it lifted off to fight against Ingues' fleet. And MII is an alternate universe unto itself.
-
UPDATE: some long overdue progress shots: Final configuration for the stand base: Main logo and the file number from the series' briefing (at the start of the S1 episodes, IIRC): A pic with the unextended sponson ends attached: Bottom shot without and with ADF pod: Rare Earth magnets embedded in both hull and ADF pod: Sponson ends: normal and chain guns deployed; both attach via a series of posts: Airwolf's weaponry at a glance: 3/4 rear view port; extended exhausts for rotor engines and turbo boost nozzles in place: Work done to hollow out and rebuild turbo boost intakes and cooling intakes for rotor engines: Main rotor hub: The helicopter still needs work: a final buffing down of the hull (lumpy in some areas and the shine is too much), refining some details, and a couple fo other nitpicks. But overall, this project has succeeded beyond what I had hoped for! Finally... a shot of "The Lady" coming straight for the camera: Stay tuned folks....

I get the sneaking suspicion that somehow, LSD was involved in the making of those "credits".

We've never noticed a joystick on the SDF-1, so I'm afraid you've lost us there. 🙄

Hard. Pass.

Nice job so far! BTW: I know it doesn't have it's legs yet, but it kinda reminds me of what Jaws would look like in the year 3000!
-
Too bad we couldn't get some Logans in as patrol craft for the cities in the next Macross series as cannon-fodder to get blown up.

The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post
pengbuzz replied to Shawn's topic in Model kits
Nice weathering job on both; I couldn't hep notice though a couple of nitpicks here (minor ones) that jarred my eyes while looking at these wonderfully done models (second video): 1) The odd offset placement of "U.N. SPACY" on the black wing stripes and "001" with black stripe on the engine nacelles/ legs (1:02)? 1) Anyone notice the huge gap between the canopy and the rest of the nose on the Strike Valk (11:52)? I wonder if the canopy was somewhat warped during manufacture? -
Finally got my Missing Link Convoy/ Optimus Prime C-01 yesterday:
-
that's just sad looking!!

Yeah...Gundam may as well be the mech mascott of Japan and of all mech anime as a whole.
-
While they're at it, how about a 1/300 Daedalus and a 1/300 Macross to go with it?
-
I seriously wish I had the money for all those, Shawn! Right now, I can't even afford modeling supplies!
