  1. Past hour
  2. This is a new thing from Takara, Transformers Overgear. No idea when or how much or what scale, but I can tell you 01 is Ironhide and 02 is Blackout. I know @M'Kyuun loves a good helicopter...
  3. Slightly new packaging look must mean they are locked in to w/e stategy or quality standards this release stands for. The 17's arm is peeking out from the side. Since it's ready for show, that one's designs are definitely locked in too lol.
  4. Today
  5. @Big s @Chas I really appreciate the tips. Thanks so much. 👍
  6. His art is a form of immortality, but it's folks like this that contribute something beautiful to the world that one wishes had an extended lease on life. RIP Mr. Struzan
  7. Go to the dollar store and look for bead organizers, or take the easy way and get something like these from Amazon https://www.amazon.ca/Pure-Future-84-Piece-Bead-Organizer/dp/B0DY7WTQL8/ref=asc_df_B0DY7WTQL8?mcid=45aac5890169360cbae523b9328bd091&tag=googlemobshop-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=752810048793&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=13313951402467629014&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9000702&hvtargid=pla-2420512250336&psc=1&hvocijid=13313951402467629014-B0DY7WTQL8-&hvexpln=0&gad_source=1
  8. I use snack size ziplocks and sandwich size ones for larger parts. I separate them for main body, left and right sides and if need be another for accessories. I usually put a small bit of paper inside to label them left and right, but a sharpie would probably work as well for labeling larger kits of course may need larger bags
  9. I am shock to death by this news. I did met Ace twice,
  10. So have you ever been super careful with tiny pieces, cut them out and immediately put them in a dish to keep them safe as you work on other elements of the kit? Days pass and when it’s time to clip them up for priming, you look in the dish and the small part is MIA and have no idea how or where they went. Well it was my turn to deal with this issue. So I guess I need to make a replacement piece. Hope this isn’t too rough I’m missing one part of the head/face armor. (Part D10) on the new 1:144 KOG. It’s a tiny piece and most of it is hidden in the end so details can be ignored which is nice. Just glued a couple small pieces of Pla .3mm and some sanding and will probably shape it more for a better fit. Once it’s painted and in place nobody will know. Does anyone have pointers of best practices to keep parts safe. I may have to get some zip locks or tiny jars with lids? An open dish is well…open and ready for failure I guess. Lol
  11. F'ing classic song. RIP
  12. That was such a trashy fun movie. The down in fire effects were hilarious and the filmation style sound effects are also great for a laugh. Definitely an iconic band and without them, many styles of music and costume would not have been the same. They also pushed bands to do more with stage antics and how shows could be done in a way for more of a visual experience. Without Kiss, there’d be no Mercyful Fate, or the corpse paint of Black Metal or even more modern makeup and masked bands like Ghost or Sleep Token Ace was an iconic guitarist and definitely one of those that found a way to make sure you knew his name, even if he may not have been as skilled as some others, you knew his name
  13. Delayed valks can be dealt with, destroyed valks not so much. "Sorry, your "1 per decade" super-rare valk sat for 10 days without a response from the Japanese auction shop that sent it, so we shredded it"
  14. Yesterday
  15. When I was a little kid, early 80's, there was a picture of KISS on the back of a SHOGUN WARRIORS comic my brother had, their faces in full makeup used to scare me then. Of course, later on as a teen working in retail (1994) with guys in their 30's, I was properly introduced into Pink Floyd, U2, Zepplin, Beastie Boys, RUSH & KISS. KISS has some amazing songs and a stage presence that dominated. RIP ACE.
  16. Damn, I was never huge on KISS, but their impact is undeniable. RIP to a true, old school rock legend.
  17. https://variety.com/2025/music/news/ace-frehley-kiss-lead-guitarist-dead-1236554943/ Thanks for the iconic musics and Phantom of the Park Godspeed
  18. I completely understand and agree with your statement, I guess I have never had an issue with HLJ and packages. MB
  19. Hi all. just wondering if these parts can be 3D printed. I recently got super lucky with an Aoshima Legioss & Tread set. Sadly, the plastic on the Tread (oddly not the Legioss) has not held up over time or the factory plastic was a bad batch. Either way, these parts are for the back of the legs and used for Bomber mode. Both literally shattered with minimal pressure applied, they are glued back together for now. Crazy how my TOYNAMI Beta's have, fingers crossed, not had this issue. Any thoughts or suggestions?
  20. Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill Season 2 episode 2 aired and It was just great. I love Dora.
  21. Thank you!
  22. Just got back from seeing ARES, it was well made and the NIN soundtrack was so good you could have just closed your eyes and listened to it through the whole film. Jared Leto's performance was fine too but his films seem to be cursed. HOWEVER!! Not having Sam Flynn and/or Quorra return was a yuge f'ing mistake and there was plenty of room to include their characters in ARES. I'm sure making a sequel so late (15 years!!) after LEGACY didn't help either. Plus there was an over abundance of nostalgia that can't be expected to carry a movie either, that GenX money can only get you so far. Sadly, since ARES wasn't a block buster hit I think this will be the last TRON movie ever and doubt we'll see a new streaming series too.
  23. I got a few of these figures. I still haven’t opened them, they’re surprisingly highly detailed and I feel like you need a magnifying glass to really see everything. Gotta set up a little extra space to display them
  24. It’s one of my favorites as far as looks, but as far as its story in Zeta m, it’s one of the goofier ones. Reccoa got mad that she was being ignored and not being treated as a lady enough, then switched sides due to bad writing and was given that suit to fight off the people she cared about. They really didn’t know how to write female characters back during Zeta era and often times women would just be an emotionally chaotic mess.
  25. The predator looks bad. I wonder if it was some kind of money saving problem. From what little I remember this has more screen time for the predator and from the look of it that facial mask might be easier to work with than earlier ones. It looks like the mechanical bits could be worn from more angles while filming.
