    Wasn't the point of spending flipping great wodges of cash on the Disney+ Star Wars originals to give the Disney+ Star Wars originals movie-quality visuals? IMO, the trailer looks fine visually. It's just unmistakably a trailer for a kids movie. (Well, that and unmistakably an unnecessary coda to The Mandalorian's story full of Filoni-isms.)

    Good to see some love for the ol' 262. I've got one of mine set up at work along with a 3Zero VF-1J. In battroid mode, I hate having the wings all up in the air like it's about to go gliding, but it looks a heck of a lot better down low like sortuva mechanical cape... and the big gun sticking up there seems very Macross imho.

    Probably cuz this movie was , essentially, Season 4, condensed. Targeting younger audiences is fine. I can't expect them to push Andor-targeted audience out every time.

    1/55's revisited

    jenius replied to kanata67's topic in Toys

    No documentation but I would guess the heat shield would be in the battroid tray since it was included with the 1A and that only had the one tray.

    1/55's revisited

    Shawn replied to kanata67's topic in Toys

    Another dumb question...has there ever been documentation on just how the 1/55 series was 'packed' from the factory? Example-the Elintseeker...where was the heat shield place when new? Or the little antenna extensions on he fast packs? Where they in baggies? Loose? Everything else is documented on these things, I was just curious on where things actually came out 'stock' from the factory. Not just this example, but the 1/55 line in general. Sort of like if you were judging a car restoration where things need to be in their place lol

    Why does Summer Pockets always manage to made me break down. Today's episode was a tearjerker again.

    Sorry to say but that doesn't look very good. This is supposed to be a movie for the big screen. Why does all the production value look like it straight from Disney Plus? Movies are meant to be cinematic in appearance. This isn't that. Half the trailer is baby Yoda doing cute things. This tells me the target audience for this movie is really young. Why spend money at the theater for the whole family on what looks like a normal episode of the show?

    Back when I first unboxed the 262Hs.. I like its rather compact Gerwalk mode.

    Watched "The Brutalist" last night and it went straight to the top of my Epic Twist movie list 😳

    It looks ok, although I'm not crazy about the plainness or lack of paint apps to replicate the toy's sticker details. And yeah, the cassettes have some notable flaws. I'm feeling the opposite the more I compare the two. I like SS86's proportions, with his meatier arms and overall bulk, as well as the lack of superfluous arm kibble that unfortunately bled over from the terrible Siege Soundwave to his Netflix version. However, I don't care for his thinner feet or their visible hinges; they look better on the Netflix figure, IMHO. Too, as I mentioned above, toon-slavish plainness is not my preferred look; I want details on my robot toys, especially when they're retailing for $60. Finally, they just can't seem to make very good cassettes at this smaller scale. I wish they'd never moved away from the OG real micro-cassette scale, as then they'd have more real estate to work with and they'd all be compatible across CHUG and MP toys. For my money, the OG cassettes, flatness notwithstanding, just did a better job of realizing both cassette and bot modes than these smaller scaled ones. At least the animal modes were better captured. KFC proved, too, with his latest Ramhorn and Steeljaw cassetttes that more realistic, non-flat animal modes that actually look like the animals they're supposed to be is possible. Kudos, too, to FansToys for their Ravage, which IMHO, Ravage being my favorite of the cassette minions, is the best executed version of him in the OG scale right after the one that came with Universe Hound and then the OG. The best Ravage overall goes to MMC, but of course, he's upscaled to a regular cassette which gave them a lot more real estate to work with.

    I am making my kids go see this! LOL On a side note, Disney should make a movie based on the ANDOR series 🤣

    IMAX worthy. This is the way.

    Friendly reminder I've messaged you back, @jenius

    @GMKThanks for sharing. I see the same construction as the earlier versions. Unfortunately all appendages have seams bisecting them. The alignment was good on the DYRL version. Clean up was no big deal with a little puttyl. Looks like the same on this.

    Awesome work @Perxion!

    Mekanimuss, Take your time, these kits will be worth the wait. Thank you for putting this together and I look forward to my extra additions. MB

    Whats next for Arcadia?

    MKT replied to w8kbrder's topic in Toys

    When Mr. K mentioned no air-conditioning in the earlier tweet above, I guess it's not the only AC he's referring to.

    ^^ A very slick art of the 19P from this angle.

    MKT replied to CF18's topic in Toys

    The Minmay figure is looking pretty good, and the face sculpt seems able to capture Mikimoto's modern drawings of her quite well.

    I think it was the music and cars. A lot of clubs had people dressed that way out here in ca near the beaches, not sure if they were mimicking the show or the other way around either. The hair was also pretty common.
  28. Big s
    Yeah, those look great. Looks like you don’t need to do much at all to give it the basic appearance from the show
