  1. Past hour
  2. Today
  3. It was definitely hard to miss those posters going to the theater or the blockbuster back in the day
  4. couple of recent updates from Mr.K... re: 1/60 Hikaru Strike VF-1S https://twitter.com/Mrk_arcadia/status/1978239870859460811 web-translated: re: Arcadia website https://twitter.com/Mrk_arcadia/status/1978241378053230819 web-translated:
  5. Just got back from seeing it. I liked it. The plot, while not amazing, was better than expected, the visuals were cool (see it in 3D if you can), and the soundtrack was cool.

    DX Chogokin VF-17S

    I haven't handled mine in forever but I think they could have done the leg gun with a folding gun on the 1/65... Scale it 1/60 and give us two guns, one that fits and one that looks good.
  7. Yeah, it's kind of a natural progression to the active camo/paint they had in Delta. I don't think we saw anything like it in Frontier on a valk (unless you want to count Battle Galaxy ), but they obviously can project holograms over pretty much anything they like at this point.

    DX Chogokin VF-17S

    Yeah, the old Bandai 1/65 toys are still my favorite versions of the VF-17D & VF-17S and in fact one of my all-time favorite Macross toys. A few relatively simple improvements to the 1/65 would make them so much better. I'd like to see the 1/65 VF-17 redesigned with the following changes: Improved hand sculpt, perhaps with different swapable fixed pose hands. Improved gunpod sculpt. Modify the knee joints so that the knees bend both forward and back (a modification that many owners do themselves anyway). Improved front and rear landing gears and landing gear doors, to make them more lineart accurate. Add ratcheted ball joints to the hips to allow the toy to do an A stance. Perhaps add an opening canopy and pilot figure.
  9. Lol. That's a great idea.
  10. Wow, probably the best cover/movie poster artist ever. He will be missed.
  11. I have the double sided version of the TPM poster. That would be my favorite one of his.
  12. ,,,,,,,What.....He was the best. At what he did.

  14. I've been thinking about how the 19P magically gets a 19Kai face and it occurs to me that the 19Kai should have had a screen projecting a singing face all along. That would have allowed them to do a moving mouth and facial expressions to recreate a singer (not that I love that plot). The 19P could have turned on it's projector to create the 19Kai face in the same way... It's just then that Basara chooses to load that program. That's how I would retcon it.
  15. Yesterday
  16. I knew this was coming and expected it to be good considering what the SC Team have thus far accomplished. I wasn't expecting the options to change the car's configuration nor the addition of an extra minifig, all at the usual price of $28. A great deal in every sense. I hope they do KITT, the Mach 5 from Speed Racer, the OG Spinner from Blade Runner, the Asurada and Super Asurada from Future GPX Cyber Formula. Sadly, the era of futuristic or sci-fi cool cars died in the 90s and, lacking a revival, we continue to mine nostalgia.
  17. I want an official Speed Champions KITT next.
  18. RIP D’Angelo and eff cancer:
  19. DV Mustafar AE looks nice... limited to 4k, comments on fb groups were stating this is based more on the ROTS movie version while the Japan SWCelebration version was more like the Asoka series version based on the color of the eyes... 🧐 I think I only watched the Asoka series 1x and will have to rewatch it. Anyhow... the eyes are swappable on both versions of the AE. Also swappable on the regular version, yet which is the only version that comes with blue and 'sith' eyes.
  20. They did. Work on season three was delayed something like seven months due to the combined effects of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. What they seem to be implying there is that the delays caused by the strikes forced them to rush to get the scripts together for season three and get filming started, resulting in the decidedly sub-par scripts they ended up using for a lot of season three. Kind of like how the writers strike of 1988 led to TNG season two being shortened by four episodes, reusing a Star Trek Phase II draft for the season opener, and making the final episode of that season a clipshow.

    No, I never said that, no one asked before. I model with a caliper, meaning I take measurements with a caliper and create a 3D model based on those measurements. Literally trial and error. Generally, these small pieces come out in one shot. But for example: I'm currently testing a new resin to print the articulated 1:48 Mospeada soldiers. And it's giving me quite a headache. It's not ready yet 🥵 soon...

    Nifty!

    Sorry if you discussed this already, but how did you make the hard point attachment pieces? Did you use a 3D scanner?
