  3. I think it has a shot, as long as they don’t try to do an established story and just do something original with it. It’s gonna have to try to actually be worse than most of the Japanese Gundam stuff recently
  4. That’s looking rather interesting
  5. Thanks @Graham! Seems that the Command Vorct, Arc. is popular at the moment since Bandai released their HG expansion set last year to complete the Vorc series! and the new Mag. from Hobby Japan seems to compliment this. I'm sure it's a series we will get in the Hi-Metal R line eventually, but will be costly 😱

    Not even worth fighter mode ?
  7. Today
  8. yup. and here's a recent jp-fan reply to TN's own PR-tweet: https://twitter.com/t_features/status/2034230867384787375 web-translated: Maamo's reply-tweet if you can't see it from the TN-tweet at https://twitter.com/mamochansw1911/status/2036393917730660648
  9. It was a magazine series published in Hobby Japan. Here's an excellent overview: Commando Vorct overview | Tim Eldred https://share.google/XTO2pk7sMJXCAwVOG
  10. Picked up two units from Mandarake last year for 16,000 yen. which if you think about it, include a nice weapons pack. but splitting them up with add on packs will make it easier in the future, for example the Birkoff squad when the parts come available.... @Graham What series is the Commando Vorct version from?
  11. years later, Bandai decided it will release a much bigger and much chunkier version with light-up gimmickry: https://twitter.com/t_features/status/2036610768163242182 web-translated: Click the Tweet-Link to watch the PR-video since it's not on youtube, yet...
  12. A VF-17 that fails the @Graham test is no real VF-17.
  13. Uh, no thanks, I'd rather use an actual emulator not a browser-based one.
  14. So I decided to try adding some mottled texture to the Bellvine. My kid was kind enough to let me perform surgery on one of their old stuffies to extract some poly fill to use as a filter to spray through. It’s hard to photograph but I am digging the outcome. Less is more that’s for sure. Going to add a topcoat next and then it’s time to muck it up with some washes and panel liner. The silver hoses are going to look great once all the recessed areas get some oil wash sitting in there.
  15. Just picked up this little guy for about USD23. Yeah, I know it's CM's and the plastic will probably break in multiple places as soon as I take it out of the box, but heck it was cheap enough. 😅 I've always liked the Commando Vorct, Rane Custom design and it will probably be years, if ever until Bandai makes an HMR version.

    I've already put mine up for sale at a loss, but don't care. 🤣 Took it out of the box for 5 minutes, looked at it and thought "nah, not keeping you".
  17. I doubt this will end well. 😂
  18. I'm jealous too. 😅 I stopped at 2 HMR Turbo customs.
