  8. Ouch! I've had cracked bicep/elbow joints on some of my old Yamato YF-19 and VF-19 toys, but this is the first time to see it happening on an Arcadia YF-19.

  11. That’s kinda what I thought. He’s like the most awesomely dressed janitor ever.
  12. This book is pretty good as well, has loots of small details and technical drawings! Although it's currently sold out, here is the Mandarake link! I can also recommend these two since they have drawings of all the Mechs and Characters! But book one is impossible to find at a good price when I received my 2nd Volume it came with a cd containing both volume as PDF'S 😉 just PM me!
  13. Oh that is interesting, I think the broken arm on one of my Fire Valks has a completely smooth pin in that arm joint. Maybe the YF-19 changed that. Glad to hear the screw covers popped out easily though, that makes things much easier. I actually noticed the same about the screw covers on the underside of the wing gloves on mine, when I was able to pop them out easily to swap in my replacement wing mounts. Maybe the weathering on the plastic, or clear coat, or whatever they did to it meant they either didn't stick as tightly, or they just didn't use as much glue. Good luck with the replacement or fix! It would be amazing if we can finally get direct support from Arcadia after all this time.
  14. Great thanks for the info. Going to try and vt1 backpack swap with my vf1d just to see how it looks next weekend
  15. Well, that was unexpected... in a great way. A very good series so far.
  16. Yay, just received the Scopedog Master File book I ordered from a seller eBay Japan.
  17. I'd buy a WST Megatron, if they weren't going for $50+. Oh, and I should maybe clarify something I said about Nexus Prime earlier, for those unfamiliar. Nexus Prime, according to the Covenant of Primus, is the guy with the Enigma of Combination for his artifact, and is described as "the first combiner." Which doesn't exactly make sense to me, since there were only Thirteen Transformers at the time and none of them combined with Nexus... I guess it's like each part of Nexus is also Nexus? I dunno. I've said before that while the Covenant solidified and canonized a lot of the lore of the Thirteen, the idea of the Thirteen had been kicking around for awhile and Fun Publications ran with it during their time with the Official Transformers Collector's Club. For the first few years that Fub Pub ran it, if you joined the OTCC by a certain date you got a free figure that was a repainted Energon conbiner figure... first Skyfall (the A-10-ish plane from Superion Maximus), then Landquake (the tank from Bruticus Maximus), then Breakaway (the other jet limb from Superion Maximus), then Topspin (the helicopter from Bruticus Maximus), and finally Heatwave (the torso bot from Bruticus Maximus). The accompanying story explained that these guys, though they didn't know it, were created when Alpha Trion, Vector Prime, and Solus Prime split apart Nexus Prime to hide the fragments of Prima's Star Saber from the Fallen. So the reason why a bunch of people at the other board are mad is that we're getting Nexus as a Voyager-class dude who turns into a jet and looks vaguely like the Covenant depiction instead of a whole entire combiner... as if we haven't known for like a year that Nexus was going to be a Voyager, or as if Hasbro would have realistically dedicated more than a Leader budget in the first place. Well, courtesy of Mark Maher's Instagram, we do know that Nexus is, in fact, capable of turning into a torso that works with at least Superion's frame...
  18. Yeah, I agree, the GAT-2 should have been included. with the purple Melkian Scopedog As in the TV series we most frequently see it armed with either the GAT-22 or Pentatrooper and caruying the Parachute Sack.
  19. Thanks, guys! Thom, you've gotta watch Record of Lodoss War. The original OVA by Madhouse is legendary, with incredible vocal opening and ending themes. I normally don't care about anime vocal music, unless it's Macross, Lodoss, and BGC. The OVA was done before the novels were completely written, so its ending is considerably different from how it was meant to be. Later there was a Lodoss TV series that mostly glossed over the events of the first story arch, then it covered the Leylia redemption arc. The second half revolves around Neece's capture, who is the daughter of Leylia and the wizard Slayn from the first story arch, now a teenager. The sorcerer Wagnard captures Neece to sacrifice in an attempt to resurrect the Goddess of Destruction, Kardis. In the OVA version, Wagnard captures Deedlit to sacrifice to Kardis and Parn must rescue her. Unfortunately, there is no clear-cut way to just sit down and take in the entirety of Lodoss and have it make sense. The OVA is all about Parn's hero's journey. But only the TV show features the "next generation" characters. Chas, I'm pretty happy with how Deedlit's hair turned out. I've only temporarily attached her head because her cape needs to go on first, and then her head/hair. I also need to attach her side locks that go on in front of her ears. I'm also working on a 3D-printed Rei figure. I first airbrushed her skintone, then masked it off and airbrushed her hair Mr. Color 34, sky blue. I managed to find the official Rei hair color by Gaia Notes. It's too light, I think, so I just sprayed it from a top-down direction to provide a gradation.
  20. I suppose you can call it a vacuum. It’s meant to suck up and dispose of poison gas. He is the hostile environment specialist. He clears the area of any toxic stuff. Fantastic design.
  21. Bandai glues together the parts you need to disassemble, but doesn't apply glue to the loose-fitting parts that you don't want falling off...
  22. Yesterday
  23. It was a tv miniseries that aired I believe around 9 pm to hopefully make sure kids went to sleep, but every kid I knew watched it and talked about it the next day at school. It was on ABC television networks, so pretty much every kid was watching it and getting nightmares and childhood trauma. good times. And nobody has trusted a clown since I guess that hatred for clowns started with Garfield, but that quickly turned to fear after that miniseries
  24. That Teela looks……….special….
