  1. Past hour
  2. @tekering The Thunderfighter is such an awesome looking plane! What scale are you doing it in?
  3. One Scopedog arrived today, the other got stuck in Dubai....🥶
  4. Between the forward swept wings plus the head placement on top in fighter mode with the head laser/fin sticking out and the guns on a hinge like a mission pack, it kind of reminds me of a VF-31. Not totally sold on this line yet but looking forward to seeing the reviews after they're released.

    Yeah, Macross is hot right now and especially the non og stuff after they got added to Hulu. But for some reason they’re pumping out Votoms like crazy. Don’t get me wrong, I love Votoms, but it doesn’t have the worldwide popularity that Macross has.
  6. Today
  7. That's an impressive repository of interesting material!!! Thanks Chavakaiser!!!

    I'm not as crazy about the Kai as other VF-19 variants either, mostly due to the red and yellow color scheme. The face is an odd design choice, but I can live with it. Back when Yamato released all their VF-19 toy, I went in on the blue and yellow Blazer. I would've preferred the blue and white one, but I don't remember why I didn't get it instead. Anyway, I passed on their Kai, although I thought, and still think, the mold was gorgeous. Fast forward to present, I went in on the HMR Kai as it just seemed like a good take, the smaller scale and lower price appealing, and my desire to own a decent modern toy of it greater than my old bias. No regrets; it's well done, looks beautiful across modes, is easy to handle, and it scratches the itch to own the hero valk from M7. I hope they eventually give us a proper VF-17 and not a downscaled version of their craptastic 1/60 VF-171 retool. Honestly, in my limited experience, the HMR line is so well executed, I have to wonder why the offerings in the line are so few and the variety of valk designs so sparse. They should be milking it for all it's worth, cranking out as many designs as possible with all the recolors and variants thereof for max profitability while giving the fans maximum Macross mecha love for their collections.
  9. Neat. Some interesting options there
  10. Yep, the drone looks like a Transformers toy now. Big ol’ thick box with some wings strapped to it.
  11. Nah, @SteveTheFish has me working on 3D models of the Buck Rogers Thunder Fighter now...
  12. The lighting gimmicks are nice, but other than testing them on the first day I have the Scout Regult, I'd probably never really need to turn them on again....just like the other Regults I have....
  13. I figured they made their own figures, but it seems they figured to only make figure accessories for other figures by other figure companies. I couldn’t find the figures that are figured in their figure accessory photos, but they figured that I’d figure that from the figure accessory description.
  14. How do you figure that? I figured those figures must be their figures, since the figures figure so prominently in their promo shots... 🤔 No figures? Go figure. 🤨
  15. You know I tempting to order it, once the pre-order is open. ☺️
  16. A.I. unmanned drone? Or like a super robot where the pilot in inside the head. Cue "...and I'll form the head!" Liking the colors but wish there was less white and more black.

  19. All else is cool, but the city…😘
  20. I was able to pick up the new Hot Rod today and was so disappointed with it. Compared to the original one I have, this one has a couple of QC issues. The right leg doesn't close together tightly in robot mode and left shoulder is a floppy mess. I'm probably going to return it and hope for a new batch. After seeing the two together though, I think I like the color of the original one better even though the new one is more accurate.
  21. Yeah, I just started collecting Godzilla figures about year or two ago ever since -1.0 figures started coming out. I prefer the static figures like the Ichibansho stuff over the poseable ones like S.H. MonsterArts. I'm hoping to get my first X-Plus Godzilla figure this month.
