    Was thinking about watching that one. Trying to convince myself to finish Wonderman, but it’s sooo boring

    I’d probably get some armored ones

    I love it that more VF-25s are coming on this line, I just wonder if any squad is going to get completed. They totally skipped Messer's VF-31 and I bet after Michael's will get Ozma's VF-25 but not Luca's. I do hope we get some armored VF-25 variant

    Certainly seems more interesting than that other thriller miniseries that I saw the other day, His and Hers. Started out strong, then ended on a stuuupid twist that made the entire endeavor not worth it at all.

    That's the one, undoubtedly taken from this book: Just try and find a copy under $500, though! 😅

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking of, but forgot the A-Wing is kind of a unique case of the original original toy being that good. I did wait to pick one up until they remolded the engines and properly painted the guns though. But yeah, that is what has thrown me about the A-Wing filming model for so long. Even that prototype looks too big to be built out of the specific parts the ship looks like it is constructed from. I don't know how many companies made a 1/32 F-16 around then, but the engine nacelles look straight from the early 80s Hasegawa kit. The only thing that makes sense to me is that the original kitbash was just done in a smaller scale, and they just scaled it up manually for the film model Could have maybe used an RC F-14 body for it, but a flying F-16 model wouldn't have the Hasegawa-style intake ducting. I did happen across the thread in my search though. Is this he original prototype build that got scaled up? https://www.therpf.com/forums/threads/a-wing-studio-prototype.352815/

    Actually, that was Kenner. Hasbro just kept repainting the vintage mold... which is even more impressive, seeing as that toy is over FORTY years old now! 😮 Actually, the filming miniature was much larger, 40 x 60 x 22cm (about 2 ft. in length). The ruler indicates length in inches. You're probably thinking of the A-Wing prototype (which was never filmed).

    I'd post about it, but another one of my posts vanished, this time in this thread. I'm done trying to do anything here; I don't need this, so I pulled the rest of my latest posts to save them the trouble. Enjoy the board folks; I'm out.

    Opposite situation: Haslab Unicron arrived as a ball (just like in the movie!) and I turned him into a robot, and thus he has remained. I've never attempted to transform him back and I'm not sure I want to.

    Finally trying out Wonderman, three episodes in and it’s a total snooze. I don’t get why it seems to have high ratings other than the people reviewing it a Hollywood types that love Hollywood references. But I’m kinda used to Disney having shows where the first couple episodes are lame, then things pick up. Unfortunately I’m almost at the halfway point and this show does something worse than being totally bad, it’s just extremely boring with no bits of humor or anything to break up the monotony. The acting seems to be well done, but the Mandarin completely steals the show but there’s really not much show to steal. Maybe episode 4 will be better, but as is this may not be as infuriating as Iron Heart or as bad as She Hulk, but it might be the absolute most forgettable live action show created for Disney plus. Probably why nobody is even talking about this show even though there hasn’t been anything on the platform for a few months other than Hollywood critics.

    They gave the same care to the A-Wing I think (ignoring the guns.. they need a re-mold, but that's an easy 3D print replacement). It's tough to judge from some film miniature photos, which seem to have a ruler for scale that doesn't make sense, but when you consider the parts used to build the A-Wing, the toy looks almost dead-on filming model scale. You know, unless Hasegawa and Tamiya happened to put out F-14s and F-16s in even bigger scales than 1/32. Although, I suppose it's possible they just used RC aircraft models, or maybe cast custom parts? I always thought the parts looked very specifically like certain pieces of the early Hasegawa 1/32 F-16 kits, but it's possible they just upscaled them and cast their own after prototyping with the base kits.

    I think everyone is just being way too negative in their expectations lately! You have to think like @Shawn and it will happen! I'm positive the VE-1 Elintseeker is going to happen this year, I'm positive so it will happen! 🤗................😉

    Sometimes even bad Nick Cage is still good, but Crazy Nick Cage is always best

    I totally agree. Looks like total trash

    Incidentally, here's a decent 1:6 X-Wing: It's not perfect, either, but it sports a much better paint job, accommodates a pilot figure, and it's totally scratchbuilt -- no 3D-printed parts at all! 😲

    Totally forgot about that game

    I think they should’ve put his lady on the stand instead

    I fear you may be waiting an eternity. 😕 I can't believe how good Hasbro's TIE Bomber still holds up, TWENTY-FIVE years later...! Their TIE Advanced from '96 was so lousy, they had to produce a new sculpt from scratch last year... 🤨 ...yet the TIE Bomber was so proportionally-accurate, it's almost a 1:24 studio-scale replica. Somebody really cared back then. ❤️

    Arms/elbows look terrible. Like a bootleg.

    I transformed mine into a ball. ...I just never turned him back into a robot.
