MOSPEADA Inbit Revival Part II: Gosu?


Recommended Posts

I won't have any progress to show for the next few weeks, I'm afraid.  The animatronic Yoda I'm working on has to be submitted by the end of the month to qualify for our annual modeling contest, and I don't have much time to devote to anything else...!  :unsure:

Curious to see how it turned out. If not still WIP that is.

Sorry, my Invid projects have been temporarily shelved while I focus on displaying my collection for the local news media:

It's been a very time-consuming process, as you can well imagine.  :mellow:

Wow! Insane collection. So this is where the awesome N-scale town diorama is housed! Very nice.

Given Tekering's locale (Japan), it's interesting how much of the collection come from sources based on Hollywood productions (Star Wars, Star Trek, terminator, iron man, avengers, etc.), and relatively small percentage based on Japanese materials (Macross/Robotech and Godzillas). There are nice Kaijus but no soul of chogokin (except perhaps the ships?) and super robots. The TF collection seems to be most prominent given it's sort of both Japanese and American. 

Definitely awesome setup. Two/three rooms of just toy displays. I wish I have room to display half my collection! The media will have a jaw dropping day!

Looks like they're preparing for a multi-dimensional invasion.:rolleyes:

Actually, I've got hundreds of anime figures still in storage -- Sailor Moon, To-Heart, Haruhi, Hatsune Miku, K-On!, and less innocent stuff -- that must safely remain out of the public eye.  A significant part of my business is teaching elementary school girls, see, so I have to be concerned with my professional image.  Even the more sexualized Evangelion or Ghost in the Shell figures remain in the closet (along with a hundred Mobile Suits I just haven't found space to display).

Not that it mattered, really, given how totally clueless the reporter was.  He'd never seen Star Wars, never even heard of Macross, and standing before my wall of Transformers -- mostly G1, Animated, or movieverse characters -- he turned to me and asked "Are these all Gundams?"  <_<

What a waste! You’d think they’d send someone with at least some knowledge on the subject matter to do the interview! The reporter probably didn’t appreciate what she was seeing, at all. 

I hear you about the figures. I got questioned once over a very innocent looking Minmay figure fully clothed in her signature DYRL pose. You’re wise to do what you did. :)

@tekering - Amazing detail in the sensor eye there! I did good to paint one black stripe evenly on the clear blue part! Question....were you able to find or fashion a pilot figure? Someone here was going to make some resin or 3D prints years ago for me, but it fell through.  So even though my cockpit was fully detailed and painted, and my canopy was darkened with Tamiya Smoke, I had to go no pilot...:(

That's a technique I picked up making little Moderoid Obsolete exoframes.  Drill 1mm holes, and fill them in with little drops of super-glossy topcoat. ☺️

I fully intend to kitbash one...

One down, one to Gosu. 😉

Ready for the pic dump? 😅

Articulation is somewhat limited, but I wanted a little playability:

...and while he can assume a flight pose, I haven't come up with a stand to support him.

I did install LEDs in the flight pack, however.

And, since scale is important:

Our beloved Sentinels are undersized, of course, but Moscato's 1:48 kits scale great with Evolution Toys.
