Since everything post-production has been basically done before, it would be nice to see some pre-prod items....like that vf-1d or a Breast Fighter or the early SDF-1 design So many opportunities for new things with the Macross flavor.

OMG. Time Rider, Time Bandits, and Buckaroo Banzai FTW! I lived on a Navy base back then. I would hound my older sisters endlessly until they took me to the Saturday matinee to watch whatever scifi/fantasy flick was playing. I loved those movies. I bet they won't stand the test of *time* for me, but you've inspired me to give them a shot this weekend. Many thanks, Lyle! - Today

TY! I could not agree more about figure sizes. I barely have space here in my 1000 sq. ft. house for my wife and me. I have to pick my battles, so to speak.- 1063 replies

They feel a little better than Star Wars black series figures, but I really don’t buy too many six inch ish figures. Personally I wish they’d do GI Joe figure more like the little Star Wars vintage line. It would work better for me for army building without worrying about space and they’re about the same height as 80’s GI Joe figures and don’t look as cheap as other small sized modern joes- 1063 replies

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next

Preorders for SS86 Sunstreaker finally showed up here. But the comments on Hound several pages back made me rethink my preorder. So, I canceled Hound after preordering Sunstreaker. Aside from the weird looking feet and incomplete rear in jeep mode, the ultimate deal breaker for me is that panel at the back of the head. You would think that that would be something that should be banned from modern toy engineering. I've been content with my Henkei Hound for the past 18 years, what's another 18... or whenever Hasbro or Takara admit that it's now entirely possible to miniaturize MP Hound.- 18177 replies

If it’s between those two, then definitely put fall ahead of the list. Woman of the Hour really wasn’t that great, kinda just ok. Not totally bad, but not good either

The thing is, even though it is obviously bad (very bad) it does not look quite cheap enough to have been a direct to DVD (er, videotape) release. Who am I kidding, Killer Klowns didn't look quite that cheap in adverts and it was direct to video.

Speaking of catching up... I watched Good Will Hunting on Youtube free movies for the first time, lol. Only saw parts of it but never sat through the whole film. For a film from 1997 it holds up well with Robin William acting that earned him an Oscar. How do you like them apples?!

I got the name. From the film Time Rider. -
Yeah, kinda feels like the writers were like, "what's the coolest stuff in action movies ever?!!!" And then, with their low budget and mediocre skills, they made this. 😄 I have zero recollection of this film having ever been advertised, nor do I recall ever coming across it at old VHS rentals back in the day. Pretty obscure I'm guessing.

While waiting in paint to dry I’m prepping another resin kit. This one’s a figure. It’s the Satan Commander from FSS. This is the definition of bootleg. The few OG casts that exist are as rare as seeing Bigfoot. Compared to the phantom one I just prepped this feels more like I assumed a garage kit would be like. It’s going to be a labor of love for sure. Lots of surface issues to deal with including broken bits and lots of holes from bubbles etc… This the the official art for the S.C. So you can get a better visual. I think it’s going to look amazing!

I don't buy too much GI Joe these days - not unless I see a deal on some ARAH 3 3/4" O-ring figures (and/or equipment) like I used to collect back in the day (i.e., I haven't given the new Super 7(?) O-ring figures a look). I've been hearing folks heap praise on the Classified line for a long time now. What's your take on the materials and build quality of the line? P.S., nice Ross discount!- 1063 replies

OMG, the 80s cheese! Thought that was Denise Crosby. Saw her in person at a convention here in Spokane years ago. She seemed very grounded and genuinely nice, relating anecdotes from her life and career. Her grandfather, Bing, was a notable alumnus here at Gonzaga University, and she talked about him a bit as well. Been meaning to watch Woman of the Hour and Fall popped up on the movie list recently. Gonna have to watch them. Saw Predator : Badlands the other night. Kinda prefer Prey or something more like Killer of Killers. I thought Prey was awesome, my second favorite Predator film next to the original. Predator 2 is third runner up.

Glad I got bored this morning and decided to check out forums I hadn't yet visited - because I've long wondered what the heck was going on with "anymoon.com" and "scorched earth toys." The origin of both still isn't clear, but I feel like the itch has finally been scratched. 🙂 -
I saw it in the theater, plus lots of other low-budget sci-fi flicks back then too. It looked heavily borrowed from The Terminator but actually it wasn't a total rip-off and was entertained by it. Good action film for its time.

I don’t know if I actually saw the movie or just the trailer many years ago, but I remember the dude with tracks. I don’t remember anything else though. The guy from X-Men reminded me of him. We used to watch a lot of bad movies when I was younger and they often had previews for other really bad movies and it’s possible that’s all I saw, but the visual of that guy kinda sticks with you once you see it rolling.

The movie was a dirty little gem – so effective in transporting the sense of dizzying height, I was on the edge ofmy seat the whole time. Great craftmanship. Woman of the hour, the directorial debut of Anna Kendrick, is on Netflix, too, don't miss it.- 1949 replies

Welcome! I had a look into your deviantart artwork, Ganbare !! No worries, Test assemblies in solidworks or nx, between parts can be easily determine contacted surface or collision detection, unless if back in those days where we build papercraft to check contacted surface, rotation point, gap etc. Have everything plans earlier then have less headache while going complex builds. Step (5) in solidworks have to be minor tweaks or add on without messing overall proportions, if in solidworks that will be surface panel lines works and small details, which can easily delete or add later. Aerodynamic or implement NACA profile/etc, adjust them in step 1-3 and run flow stimulation or Ansys for flow study if curious about the data.
