Hey @tekering I didn't know you did 3D printing, is it PLA or resin? How fine? I'd love someone to do some 1/72 F-22 landing gears someday.

I've seen a number of people raise that hypothesis in various corners. If that is the case, the bridge does not seem well laid-out for it. The students would be stuck standing around the perimeter of the room watching the bridge officers from the outside. Ordinarily, if you were going to do a training cruise you'd have either: Small groups of cadets shadowing officers in the course of normal duties aboard a ship during routine operations (e.g. the cadets on the USS Enterprise in Star Trek II or Red Squad on the USS Valiant in DS9 "Valiant"). A larger group of cadets crewing an old, decommissioned ship under the supervision of an experienced commander and team of instructors (e.g. Pike's final training cruise on that J-class freighter or Picard's first training cruise on the decommissioned USS Leondegrance.) Honestly? This series isn't bad enough to merit calling it a "hate watch". The first episode is a train wreck and the second episode is a real stinker, but it's actually getting noticeably less shite with each episode. The Klingon episode could even be called "almost Star Trek". If this trajectory continues it might actually be good by the end of the first season. Quality-wise, we're basically watching the series crawl out of the wreckage of its first two episodes and start staggering to its feet. It remains to be seen if it'll finish up by walking away from a sick explosion without looking back or if it'll just catch a bit of errant shrapnel in the back of the head and fall over again without any dignity.

I asked at the end of December and this is what I got as a reply. "Thank you for reaching out to us about your Genesis Climber figures. We still have hope that they will arrive at our warehouse. At this time, we have not received any confirmation that the figures will be canceled. Until we hear directly from the manufacturer, we always assume that our orders will be fulfilled. If the figure is canceled by the manufacturer, then we will always reach out to you via email about the cancellation. I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance and I will be happy to help. Have a great day!"

The alternate UN spacy kites seems like yet another rabbit hole unto itself. There's this discussion of some of the alternates that appear in SDFM and DYRL. I've also read that some units from the Daedalus and/or Prometheus have the inverted kite colors, but I have no idea where that came from or if it has any truth behind it. Bandai put the inverted kite on all their HMR destroids, two of which also have the Daedalus emblem on them, which weirdly contradicts the line art that can be seen in the MMM, which seems like the line art Bandai used for most of their HMR stuff. Also weirdly, the Phalanx is the only one with the inverted kite colors in the MMM line art. I haven't even bothered to go back through SDFM and see if there is any kind of rhyme or reason to it. It could all have started as yet another animation error for all I know. What does all this mean? I have no idea, and I'm not sure if there was ever any real intent behind it. Unless someone with some insider knowledge of the production speaks up, I think it will be open to speculation or, at best, left to secondary materials to try to come up with a logic to it.

Oh, that's a popular one! Many versions are available. Don't we all? 😅 I'm hoping to complete at least one massive SDF-1 in the next six weeks... 🫥

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread

Yeah, I am still miffed that I didn’t buy the black and purple convention edition of him. In general I would have bought much more Reformatted release had I known it is a finite toy line.- 9466 replies

@electric indigoThats great to know. Thanks so much. Do you glove up during a lot of the process or do you just degrease right before you prime? Inquiring minds want to know. 😊 Also it’s true, Ted does an outstanding job and doesn’t break the bank.

General 1/18 Scale Figure and Toy Thread
tekering replied to sh9000's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
G.M.G. used to be a great figure line. The generic soldier figures came with alternate heads, helmets, and accessories for army-building, and as they began adding specific characters and vehicles, it got even better... ...but suddenly, as individual characters are being sold on cardbacks, anime accuracy has been thrown out the window. 😒 Unique headsculpts are getting slapped onto generic bodies, with horrific results. Mirai and Sayla are suddenly overweight, middle-aged hags. Amuro and Kai are suddenly as tall and broad-shouldered as Sleggar Law... who should actually be taller and lankier, actually. The new waves are an eyesore. None of these bodies are appropriate for these characters. If they try and shoehorn the pudgy Ryu and diminutive Hayato into this lineup, the results will be even more ridiculous... Buyer beware! -
The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread
Scyla replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
They are both excellent toys. I am very pleased. The one thing I dislike are the square cuts in the shoulder and thigh swivels they look soooo ugly. I don’t know if MMC has learned a lot after Assaultus or if Devastator is just easier to do since he doesn’t have dedicated feet and the torso is comprised out of two toys. Ignis, while not nearly as bad as Incursus, is still wonky. Anyhow, I am curious what MMC does next. I have thee feeling it will be Raiden but I wish for a G1 all in one Feral Rex.- 9466 replies

Oh, I'm very aware! I might in the future, but if I start down the printed route, I've got a long queue of designs way in front of anything from Star Wars that I want to tackle first. They're not in the same scale, but fortunately Amazon didn't cancel my MGS bombers like they did a couple other ships, so I've at least got a couple for display. Though, now I'm reminded that I never got a Tie Phantom in any format.
