    Lol. It's nice indeed. But i have enough Plamax vf-1's now, personally . I'm giving this line a break for a while. And since i'm just about done shipping all my other models...there's plenty to keep me busy for a long time still. Of course, i know at some point, i will give in to temptation again.

    Looks like you got turrets syndrome

    Might also be cool to see an effect piece under the hover jets to lift it up a tad off the ground for a more dynamic look.

    Nice! Are those scaled to fit the Moebius Galactica model? Where did you buy those?

    Pre-orders for the Planet Ring AAA Wunder are up, and unfortunately it's a price (<200 Euros) I'd not dismiss immediately... Time to get rid of some closets?

    Thanks. PLAMAX does note that the arm, leg, & boosters are new for the kit.

    Okay, since there seems to be some serious interest here: HR-32 Flash Clapper (as modeled by JOSEBLACKSOUL on Cults 3D) 3D-printed in light grey photopolymer resin, at 12K resolution (0.05mm layer height), and scale-adjusted to Kitz Concept's Dana Sterling figure (approximately 1:10 scale). I won't know the exact price until I've got a prototype finalized, but it'll cost significantly less than the Dana figure itself. I'll have a sample printed and photographed by the end of the month.
  16. Radioguy started following Legos, anyone?

    Said it before, and will again: Trek, like Dr Who, and DUNE, doesn't have staying power in Lego, and I don't think it has to be to be a success. I think the DUNE Ornithopter was known to be a potential one-off, hence it having the full cast of minifigs whether they rode or even appeared in a scene with a Ornithopter. The 1701-D had more reason to include the whole TNG cast, but I think the core reason was the same - include them now because we may never do more. I REALLY wish that had been true of the TARDIS console room, but that had been in the IDEAS line instead of ICONS, to its disservice, and might explain that. A shame, though. I'd have loved an official multi-Dr set.

    LEGO Iron Man Mark 3 Collector's Edition (set 76344)
  19. M'Kyuun
    I built this this evening. Iron Man Mark III Collector's Edition, set # 76344 I love the design of the first red and gold suit Tony wore in the film franchise. Let's face it, the suit design was paramount to the movie's success, so they had to get it right, and IMHO, they succeeded beyond expectations. This is the first such set of a regular IM suit, and like the Hulkbuster sets before it, it's mostly a statue, although it does have a limited waist swivel, the shoulders can rotate through both abduction and flexor arcs, the wrists can rotate and flex upwards for the famous repulsor blast pose (as you can see), and the fingers are all posable thanks to a compact and ingenious design. I didn't take a pic of the back, but he also has two panels behind his shoulders that can raise up, similar to how the various panels moved in the film. I'm not sure if that was the intention, as there's no call out in the instructions and the hinge is required to accomplish the proper angle for those panels, but it's there if you want to use it for effect. There are a number of drum lacquered gold pieces in this set, and eight printed parts: two 3x3 round tiles at the hips with mechanical design, two 2x2 round tiles with repulsor prints, two 2x2 round tiles with mechanical design for his audio receptors, one 2x2 round tile with arc reactor printing for his chest, and one 2x6 tile used for the placard. The IM Mk III minifig has new torso printing front and back as well as arm prints, and printed legs. The head is double printed but I'm not certain if its unique to this set, and I'm not concerned enough to verify. I do want to call out the designer, Aaron Newman, one of the contestants on the first season of LEGO Masters. He may not have won the final round, but IMHO, he scored a far greater prize by becoming a set designer at Billund. If this set is representative of his future projects, we're in for some amazing sets. This set utilizes a lot of assemblies positioned at complimentary angles; placing those bits on the model and seeing those perfect alignments is so fulfilling. I wish I was that good with angles in my MOCs. There is a little bit of repetition, since the arms and legs are built similarly only mirrored, but everything goes together smoothly which makes for an enjoyable build. I wish these sets were more action figure and less statuesque, but the focus with this type of set is both capturing the subject as accurately as possible within a manageable scale (about 12") and achieving stability. IMHO, Aaron understood the assignment and carried it out brilliantly. Definitely recommend.

    Hello, I know I'm a little late. But I just discovered this 1/48 Southern Cross Spartas thread now. Does anyone know if the 1/48 Southern Cross Spartas kit is still available for purchase. Because, I'd like to purchase a kit. Thank you.

    Hopefully we'll get news of the western release soon.

  23. Big s
    Totally preordered. And yes those are the correct arm packs

    They have their own approach to it... The Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force has a profound love of theme naming. In most cases, all the ships of a particular class follow the same theme. You've got the usual ones named for provinces, towns, islands, peninsulas, etc. Then you've got the ones where they really went ham with it and every ship of the class is named for kinds of rain, or wave, or ocean current or just different adjectives stuck in front of a common word. <Something> Dragon, <Something> Moon, <Something> Whale, etc. China does something similar, with all their submarines of a type have the same name. All the boomer subs are Long March #, and all the regular ones are Great Wall #. Maybe farther down the road, once some of these emigrant governments in Macross are more established, we'll start seeing more idiosyncratic naming schemes for their warships. (Though I guess it's pretty hard to maintain a theme across potentially hundreds of warships.)

    Rumor says that Nanjin has also be contributing into Factory Entertainment 1/6th figures (from what I read on Collector's Freak) and the the uncanniness of the face sculpt and paint on his EXO-6 Star Trek line is very similar (either it's dead close or totally looks like total abysmal), So when EXO-6's Trek license expires on 2027 (the beginning or latter 2027 is unsure), then there is a very good possibility that he might go with the Factory Entertainment line. Edit after further though: After reading further in the JP figures on Collectors Freak: It's $350 USD for each and the the pics are very doctored by AI since it's based on the statues that was created by Iron Studios (you have to look very close to see the teased pics). Will it be like Star Ace in which they do a real s*** job on the products and charge what ever the prices they feel like? Mondo's Tri-clops is up for grabs if anyone wants it tomorrow, but you got to pay the tariff fee and shipping. Is it worth $255 USD for a "Limited Edition" figure? It's you're call.
