  1. Past hour
  2. Oh yeah!!!!! Been looking forward to rhis! Thanks for the heads up. 😊
  3. The HG VF-31 in battroid is pretty tall. Almost as tall as the HMR VF-0.
  4. I had a lot of fun scratch-building a replacement wing for my Gakken Legioss using 1 mm styrene sheets and 4mm plastic rods
  5. Oh, lucky! Scavenger showed up yesterday, so Mixmaster is the only one I'm waiting on now. I ordered him from Pulse and all my Pos have been showing up recently, sometimes just a day apart, so shouldn't be long now. I'm happy to finally be getting a full official Devastator after 40+ years of fandom and collecting, but I wish they'd done a better job with the individual Constructicons. They're not as bad as the CW team, which I skipped entirely, but stuff like Bonecrusher's too-short forearms, Scavenger's lack of a rotating deck in excavator mode, Hook's weird arm proportions, etc erode the joy I was anticipating when these guys were announced. They're good, but not great, and I was kinda hoping for great. I am, however, looking forward to getting them all assembled for the first time. Devy was, I'm sure, the primary focus and from what I've seen in reviews, huge superfluous butt-flap notwithstanding, they did a pretty good job with him.
  6. Today
  7. Tomahawk is up for preorder, love this picthey’re buddies
  8. The Target listings should be up at 6 am PST. People have been getting old preorders cancelled so it might not even matter if preorders are secured.
  9. Mixmaster came in. Time to complete Devastator.
  10. Oh we did, that was my post about how mine exploded. Really, it was more of a post-explosion autopsy. If someone could get one apart in a slightly more coherent state, you might be able to get some good measurements of it. I would love to find a way to produce a functional replacement, or even just a permanent fighter mode mount for the rest of the leg, but that still requires getting the lower leg apart in the first place, which is a serious roadblock. You almost need to remake the entire lower leg from scratch.
  11. The stand and the decals are separate things. The stand is pre-decorated, and you can use the decals for other things.
  12. See, this is the biggest nail in the coffin of Bandai's marketing strategy. The people who actually care about the things they're bothering to re-release? They already went through the effort to import the originals. You're not doing anyone any favors, Bandai, the people who want them already have them. All they're doing is deflating the market value of the original releases at this point, because the market is flooded with the few releases they're willing to keep churning out in favor of completing any of the lines people actually want to buy.
  13. Anybody thinking about picking up the Black Pearl set that releases in a couple of days? I'm on the fence about it.
  14. Yesterday
  15. As I am working on my Dark Tread/MPC Beta project, I'm wondering if anyone ever tried to make a proper 3D printed or resin cover for soldier mode? It looks like Toynami tried in the prototype stages before doing what they did. See the pic posted, you'll see a nice proper flat chest plate cover vs the canopy just folding down. Now that I know the canopy can be removed, I'm wishing I knew how to make these kinds of parts.
  16. LEGO + Star Trek = ❤️
  17. I would’ve thought that all would’ve been printed on it, but I guess not if it has a decal for it. The whole ting is a silly cash grab. May as well just get the standard kit and the decals and be much happier that way
  18. I'm in the same boat. My backlog of unbuilt kits is so old that I haven't gotten to build my Sinanju. I'm surprised there's no available aftermarket metal frame available for the Sinanju yet. I bought one for RG Nu just as a trial, and it worked out quite well.
  19. So you have to apply the decal on that acrylic stand?
  20. They've released the Hikaru VF-1J 4x if you count the chrome chogokin ver and the only reason they sell out is because 3/4 of us are so worried they're gonna cancel the line before we get the valks we actually want, if they have a deadbeat release 🤣
  21. Wow! This is outstanding! ♥️
  22. Hellfire missiles bouncing off invaders' backs? Send out the Legioss instead... Despite the toy not being very large, it can be made to look quite imposing. (And just a few minutes ago, I noticed the shoulder sensor is mis-transformed in these latest pics. This will bug me for days to come... until I'm annoyed enough or find more inspiration to take more pics again.. sigh)
  23. I thought it was priced crazy, so then I checked sold auctions and saw this:
  24. of course, many of us also have multiples of those things now too!
  25. I thought we had a post somewhere that showed the knee and all its components... less from a "here's how you fix it" but more from a "holy hell, how was this the design they chose" standpoint. Yes though, Bandai likes glue which is no good for us who have to fix their products.
