    I don't think that changing things on the Chunkies would be useful! The appeal is the simple, and easy transformation and nostalgic build! This is what most people started with... So changing the overall basics is not going to sell, We already have better build Valk's, so the only need to reales VF-1's that where teased from Takatoku back in the days! like the VF-1D... But like @sh9000 say's, we will probably see Bandai DXChogokin Destroyds before we see another release of any 1:55 😢 Still can't beat a firing GU-11 Gunpod though! 😂

    I think I added a bit of pertinent detail. Stand Alone Complex character designer Hajime Shimomura discusses the design process in Stand Alone Complex Official Log 01 and mentions he used Man-Machine Interface's designs as his starting point for anime's, and that was Ghost in the Shell at its most exploitative. (His draft character studies use her appearance and wildly impractical dress from MMI's first chapter.) Yeah, it definitely stands out more in the less overtly 90's cyberpunk-y setting of Stand Alone Complex, though we do see a couple background characters on her level like Ran and Kurutan when they had a cameo in Ep5, the high-performance cyborgs the yakuza use as bodyguards in Ep7, and a number of background androids in various fetish-y outfits. I've often wondered if her being mistaken for a sex droid in 2nd Gig's Ep3 was a joke at their own expense there. (Ironically after she started dressing more reasonably.)

    Sorry, but the only one I have is when I took a busted one and carved all new pieces for it, so it's not a standard breakdown. However, several folks here have redone theirs; hopefully someone can help you with it. I'm sure the gang here can get you fixed up in no time flat!

    The large antenna removes by undoing the 2 screws on the bridge tower section of the SDF-1. That should come apart in half and then the main mast antenna should come apart. That will also allow for the removal of the smaller antenna on the tower side of the bridge. The other half has one screw; rather than take apart the entire section of the main body the bridge sits on (it's a royal pain!), you could probably use a jeweler's screwdriver to remove the broken masts. Pics of what I mean (screws circled in green):

    Yeah, mine should be arriving on Monday from HLJ. I'm interested to see if they made any improvements since the first release.

    Thanks! I may well do Automan in the near future! BTW: check your messages

    You get all the credit!!

    Yeah, I'm curious how they plan to do her long hair/tentacles with the batroid mode. Every other Walkure has shortish hair.

    If only I had waited one more day.

    If I have the funds next year, might just do a bulk order if they are still around. Waiting on Mikumo to finalize.

    That’s basically what I said above. The weird thing is that the show is so tame in most things, yet they tried that kinky no pants outfit in a world that still keeps their kink in the after hours mostly hidden away from a standard conservative society. But she just walks in no pants and nobody notices as though she’s just doing things as usual. And then the creators of the series thought about it in the next batch of episodes and thought, maybe she’s cold back there. The no pants thing fits the manga world since it’s so extreme, but the series setting doesn’t work

    That's a very clean job. It looks 3d printed. As there's no (not much) panel lines on the body . Like my Honneamise resin version.

    Okay, I replied to your PM.

    Or sell the book and extras to @jvmacross.

    Ordered G1 Universe Optimus Prime and Soundwave. They need to go back to window packaging. Skipped Animated Motormaster because I still have my Botcon 2011 Animated Stunticons set.

    If Pulse sells out, here's links at Amazon, BBTS, and Entertainment Earth.

    Love it!! Come on Bandai, it's time to make a VF-2JA HMR!!!
  25. mikeszekely
    I got Geocron, Optimus, Quake, Slipstream, Soundwave, Armada Galvatron, the Gobots, and the Xaaron & Flame pack. Like I said, Metalhawk isn't all that different (and in my opinion, an inferior deco), Energon Megatron kind of sucked so I don't want the repaint, and I'm not super interested in Animated when the characters were in the show, let alone Motormaster.
  26. nonner242
    To bad I'm the only person working on this assembly line 😂

    Preorders up on Pulse Got deluxe G1 Prime and Animated Motormaster.
