    I remember watching the DVDs of Gasaraki many moons ago and in the extras the mechanical designers talked about how they had to justify there being mecha in the story, when on its face a mecha isn't a great weapons platform or military vehicle, as tanks are smaller, cheaper, and much easier to conceal; so they leaned hard into the Mecha's superior mobility and dexterity. They also made them able to be solo-piloted by having a dedicated computer and sensor system handle all the actual motion of the mecha, all the pilot has to do is point the thing in a direction and the mecha will go there adjusting its speed, balance, and gait automatically.

    Yeah, I typed, refined, and deleted an entire side-jaunt about the iconic and genre-defining Nostromo from Alien. If someole wants therr sci-fi hardware to look believable and lived-in, they're still referencing the Nostromo today.

    I had the same amnesia about them too in the film, but they play a huge roll appearing often. Spoiler….Roy’s death scene

    I was being sarcastic, but then I sometimes have trouble getting that right...😁 I like it and it's looking good. And if your wife doesn't understand, just wait until it's been set up in the bedroom.

    I'll pass on this one due to tarriff BS and the fact I don't even remember seeing that in DYRL. Was it on screen for more than .03 seconds? It's been a looooong time since I watched it. I remember the TV version fairly well..

    Thanks Gang! @nightmareB4macross not too bad over all. I found that the sensor packs on the arms did not line up very well and I rebuilt them. I’ll try to get some photos to show comparison. @Urashiman overall it is a really great kit and one of my favourite designs! I have plans for 1 more lol. @Bolt thanks buddy, I’m using my stencils over the black primer to make the subtle tonal variation.

    @tekering - wow!! You're a madman! I love it! In my next life I would love to design and build architectural models. Will it be lit up from inside?

    I've never found the N-Ger (oof, that abbreviation is... ) super attractive, but as they tend to do, Hasegawa have turned out a very nice-looking model from the artwork. That backpack especially looks very nice.

    Either that or it was a drunken Seinfeld moment. Whyyyyy are real robots sooo big? It’s not like they’re fighting kaijus or anything…..they’re not super robots anymore……🥴 personally I’ve always thought votoms were a rather perfect size. Not big enough to end up easy targets and just big enough to stomp a dude

    That’s what I was thinking. Just hoping my translator works, cause I’m really interested in the process from back in the pre computer days for sci fi kits, especially at the high level of cool with those Imai kits

    I just had a crazy thought:

    *Imagines Tekering looking in a window, and some lady who just got out of the shower screaming her head off and running for dear life!*

    My personal belief is that at some point, someone criticized having giant robots in anime series and it hit Kawamori-san badly (either Macross or something else he was working on). After that (one or perhaps multiple incidents), he began developing in-story reasons why they are necessary. JMO.

    Thank you

    Ah ... The VE-1 Elintseeker - I remember building mine like yesterday. It is a really rewarding build. I had everything down in sections, as the Hasegawa kit would allow it to be build. And then when everything came together, it was like a beautiful marriage. Have fun man, this is such a nice kit
