  1. Those Ewoks look traumatized compared to their pictures
  2. As far as cardboard boxes go, these look awesome. If I had the space, I would definitely get some of those. I can see why they would be in demand
  3. Great pics. Love how I’m the first one that those nukes look so massive from the side
  4. Nah, he’s just been working those pecs since the last time you saw him
  5. That’s a great looking display piece
  6. That actually makes perfect sense …………..if you’re medicated
  7. I still have a couple of those. I also have one of the newer robot spirits version. I’m still hoping for a plastic kit from Bandai one of these days, even if it does turn out to be a web exclusive
  8. If I were in that situation, I’d be yelling to go faster
  9. Nice, I’m hoping moderoid gets around to that design
  10. If it still fits in a box, I use paper towels or whatever and there are small antennae or fragile bits I sometimes put a plastic bagggie around them so they don’t snag
  11. I guess it might be like me trying to figure out why someone would want to build the old1/72 Regult kit from the 80’s when Hasegawa just put out a pretty great kit of it and for around twenty bucks. There are people that have a nostalgia for older kits and I love looking at the box art and such, personally I wouldn’t try building one these days. The newer IMS kits are really great as far as details and design, but I figure if someone wants to try their hands at an older version, I’ll let them have that challenge same with those that still love old Macross or Gundam kits and I definitely have to give respect to those that turn them into great builds
  12. I was asking for it back in the 90’s Same here, had so much fun back in the day jumping cars and motorcycles and even the occasional big rig or ice cream truck over buildings. Sometimes the match on that map would be won by a simple misjudgment. I can’t remember if that was in the first or second game, but we had so much fun playing them after getting out of class
  13. My daughter had read them back in high school, she said they were weirder and more brutal. Personally I didn’t really get into the idea of the series. I guess the idea of having kids fight to the death on tv seemed like something I don’t think a large majority of people could get into. Maybe adults. The movies kinda had a weird cheap made for tv kinda feel and I think that’s why it just wasn’t for me. I still took her to go see all of the films since her and her friends were all into it. Battle Royale at least felt like a punishment for terrible kids or at least one that seemed like delinquents to the public and was just so ridiculous that it didn’t need a reason. It was kinda squid game before squid game and a bit of Hunger Games before Hunger Games. Not trying to say these ideas were brand new, there’ve been stories like that since Running Man or the prisoner or even the most dangerous game.
  14. I see what you mean by the colors. I’m still not buying it, but just that choice of color is a vast improvement to the look
  15. The best episode was the one with Gwar. I was laughing when they fed him to the worm. I really didn’t much care for his show, but in the age before streaming or even dvr, what else was there to watch at that time. It was that or soap operas
  16. They have been running an American site similar to hlj. Things like preorders usually pop up a few hours later, I haven’t bought any gundam related stuff, but have gotten a few other Bandai items like kits and Macross toys here and there.
  17. Other than U.S. stores, have they sold out at other Japanese sites? Maybe check amiami I think I saw it on sale at either Usags or newtype USA for the American sites, but might be thinking of a different zeta
  18. That’s an odd one for sure. It took me a minute to realize the legs were coming out of the thrusters
  19. Most of the Japanese sites sold out on the Guts and Griffith figures, but as I expected the U.S. sites have them and at a bit of an up charge. The Bbts price is $99.99 for Guts and Griffith is $144.99. I want the figures, but I’ll wait and see if there’s a better deal first
  20. I wouldn’t mind seeing pics of your progress. Maybe post some in the workbench section if you haven’t already
