😄 Congrats. I've been finding any number of current figs since last year, so distribution must be improving, or my store's doing a better job of ordering. Anyway, I had Brawl on PO through Hasbro Pulse, but I found him twice at retail, passing the first time and grabbing him the second. Alas, I canxed my PO with Pulse otherwise I'd have gladly offered up the copy. I wish you every success in your hunt! FWIW, I think Brawl is, thus far, the best of the Hasbro Combaticons. He may be unseated by Onslaught, which looks to be an excellent figure, even if they did fudge him to make the truck and trailer two separate parts so as to indulge in their beloved frame system. Still, the execution overall looks good to me. I do wish, however, that Vortex and Blast-Off actually formed the arms themselves instead of just being accoutrement on the frame arms. The frame just renders the figs as superfluous as combiners and I'm not really a fan of that approach. At least the leg bots on Bruticus are doing some partial duty despite having some framework there as well. but I look at both my Iron Factory KO Bruticus and my excellent legends scaled Magic Square Bruticus and wonder what could have been had Takara put in the effort.- 18138 replies

I must confesss I'm only aware of R-Type via few mentions of it, on these boards, generally in the context of LEGO MOCs. However, I do find the aesthetics of the ships alluring, and there's a nostalgic quality to them that tells me I've seen them before, but I was never aware of their origins until recent years. I congratulate you on your acquisition, however, and for R-Type fans, it's nice to know there'll be plenty of options for those seeking out toys and models.

That’s under the Rumble Society/Slugfest banner honestly. I posted one of the Slugfest/Rumble Society stuff here in the past and I got flack for doing it. Edit: Any Slugfest or anything else related to that specific line, I’m not going to post it.

I also get the same rhetorical question about “When is so and so company going to do this and that?” on other hobby forums as well and expect that specific company to reply to that question, but in reality, the company is not on those specific forums. Why not just forward those questions to the company themselves and see what their reply is? Hoping to see new Macross stuff in the pipeline as I’m honestly getting tired out.

Wow! @electric indigo Such nice sharp details and I LOVE Orange - my favourite schemes. I love the nice clean look, so tired of all these weathered planes lately (doesn't anyone have pride anymore in properly maintaining equipment?!)

Hikuro replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I had a pretty good day of a light hunt. I took advantage of Target's 30% sale and got Blastoff and Quickstrike. Sadly that sale doesn't extend to the other figures like Twinmill and Bone....crusher....okay. no, this is Sizzle no way I'm gonna call this autobot and Autobot, this is such a Decepticon. Quickstrike is rather fun....the glittery blue on him is nice, and his transformation is rather fun for a hick soundin, roid fuelin knockoff of what should have been Scorpinok. Just always seemed odd to me when I was a kid, you kill off Scorpinok but then you get a similar looking character who's a fuzor/transmetal. Anywho, he's fun, his joints are stupid tight. Blastoff is the second encounter of the Comabticon's I've come across and I rather regret not buying Brawl when I had the chance and have only seen out in the wild ONE TIME. But he's rather nice looking and I think well done. Now I need to find Brawl and Vortex.....which be easier to find in one location rather than separate so that's a tough order.- 18138 replies

All hail procrastination! lol Despite that, it's getting close. On the bright side, you only need to make one arm and mirror it.

It begins and I’m blown away! This is already super fun and satisfying. Just working on the test fit and removing gates etc… sanding and pinning later.

@nightmareB4macross oh baby. I can’t wait until you get this bad boy painted! This test is looking good. @electric indigo Wow that’s a such a beautiful little plane. Gorgeous color scheme and execution! Also props to you on the prop. Haha. Such a cool idea. You captured so much energy in that stationary disc.
