  1. Today
  2. Love that sliding pose in the top there.
  3. I can’t remember which have made an attempt, but I do remember one with a little hole in the front. Maybe one of the recent kits, but I think it was one of the toys. As far as kits, you could basically take either a small drill or maybe a needle point file and make a small hole. Then some red or clear red for the sensor
  4. There have been some really nice Glaug builds on Yahoo Japan auctions. This one is my favorite!! Looks amazing with excellent presentation. https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/o1182899510
  5. For Hasegawa to focus on the mainly white versions makes sense, when they got around to making the weapons sets they were mostly focused on DYRL designs, which tended to adhere slightly more closely to realistic weapons markings. Not that the black and red markings on the missiles was unrealistic, it just wasn't the type of marking you'd see on a production air-to-air weapon. I'd still like someone to actually detail the seeker tips with a sensor of some type, rather than just giving up and going "I dunno, make 'em blunt."
  6. This Hasegawa set has the white. It’s sort of all over the place. 🤔
  7. The older ones are all white for the most part, but checking the vermilion platoon versions and those have red back there. intro for the show only has white, but in a couple scenes it shows red and others I’ve seen are white by the fins. It’s very inconsistent in the scenes I was just checking
  8. To paint red or not to paint red? This is the question. Hahaha.
  9. Maybe, but there's been no indication of that thus far. Based on the last episode, it sounds like the One Year War didn't so much end as go on indefinite hiatus because neither side was able to gain a definitive advantage. Zeon "won" because the technological advantage they gained from the successful capture of the Pegasus and Gundam was just enough to offset the Federation's superior logistics and vast manpower advantage long enough for both sides to give up. Side 6 seems to be developing its own weapons despite being neutral, there are hints of a Zeon civil war, and there's maybe-rogue-maybe-not Federation pilots trying to destroy the Red Gundam. It seems like a cold war that's about to go hot again. Thus far, there doesn't appear to be any evidence that defense contractors are running Clan Battles for secret testing. All the machines we've seen or heard them mention are old ones from the war. Most competitors are using Zaku IIs. One team is apparently using Doms. That Side 6 PMC that let the Witch and another Federation pilot swap in fielded its Gelgoogs instead of Guncannons, but they're still OYW machines. The only categorically NEW hardware in play thus far is the GQuuuuuuX and that's technically stolen. With the tension that high, I'd imagine neither the Federation or Zeon would want to tip their hand so readily.
  10. You can now listen to all 44 songs from the latest Macross F release album More pix from the event!
  11. Beautiful collection! You must have some great Macross parties
  12. Seems like every company is doing everything they can to avoid making War Machine Mk 1...
  13. Neither did I. It was mostly present in the the Imai kits. This could have done inadvertently. Hopefully @Mr March could chime in and provide more light. I will add, Mr. March does extensive readers h to provide these profiles.
  14. Several of the HMR releases definitely had missiles painted red that way. I believe all of the Hikaru VF-1J and CF VF-1A versions had the fins and tips painted red. Now, what I have not seen is anyone painting the black stripes on them, outside of one of the stupidly expensive statues released under the Robotech label. And.. actually the scheme is kind of amusing to me, because they are absolutely nothing like any other air-to-air missiles.. however...
  15. The Megahouse SDF-1 sells for an average of about 20K JPY on YJA....original MSRP back in 2016 I believe was 7K JPY...I wouldn't call selling something that was released 9 years ago for more than the original MSRP as scalping....but Nin-Nin does need to price is more realistically...
  16. roflmao!!! scalper gonna keep scalping... ...exorbitantly!
  17. I still don’t remember ever seeing that much red on the missiles in the show after searching for missile sets, it seems that none of the products have that red area around the fins. I checked Bandai hmr, dx and their 172 kit, various Yamato/Arcadia toys, Hasegawa and even Max Factory and wave kits as well. They’re all white in that area. Gonna have to try and see if there are any screen shots that show the red
  18. Yeah, it’s strange how a simple color swap makes the body look totally different the clown colors on what they’re calling the “White Gundam” don’t they do it any favors. But the head on the 01 looks a lot better as well
  19. Late reply, but yep, whatever you changed looks like it did the trick. I think you could reasonably set it at a lower number of seconds, the issue was just that the search time limits were actually preventing you from even exploring the search results that had already been returned. Say I was looking for a specific topic, and searched for a keyword, but it returned multiple pages of topics, and it wasn't on the first page, the time limits were preventing the user from going to the next page of results too quickly. I don't quite know how the search logic of the forum software behaves, but the behavior I was seeing was that it was treating every action on the search results as a new search. I couldn't just move to page 2 of the results it already pulled, it was treating it more like you were just re-performing the search, and returning page 2 instead of page 1.
