@tekering ummm…WOW! That’s going to be a big boy! Holy cow I can’t wait to see this. 🤯

After months of neglect, I'm finally back at work on the SDF-1... or the Prometheus, at least. Note if that's the standard kit, it doesn't include the photo-etch parts, the LED lighting kit or the waterslide decals... but it does include a large sticker sheet! 😅
-
Pretty much the moment Leto was announced I knew this was gonna go downhill. I’ve never liked him, I think he ruins a lot of films and no idea why he was even chosen in the first place for this kind of project with his track record.

That is Disney and what’s left of fox trying to play it safe to get dollars. You’d think they had learned their lesson in previous films but alas.
-
They have been producing the v2 1/60 since 2008. How do they not have this down pat yet. And yes i understand they went to a different factory but they should have the planning in place to prevent quality issues.
-
How were they able to do 0A toys but not the VF-1?
-
I swear I have a 1/60 Hikaru on order from somewhere. Probably already paid for. I couldn't tell you which website. I hate this. It's like everything has turned into a kickstarter. EDIT: The good news is I was able to search my email and found an update from AmiAmi. Looks like I didn't prepay at least.
-
Thanks, but I didn't realize how low-resolution the game models were... 🫣 That might be adequate for a tabletop gaming miniature, but it certainly won't look good at 1:60th scale. 😒
-
Yep! It's like large and small modules that then make up the large part of the castle! It's Minifigure scale and will be quit large. The main tower alone is almost 70cm high. But also expensive with the first two main building adding up to €450 and next years Astronomy Tower being rumored to cost €300...
-
I honestly didn’t realize until last night after reading this here that they made that mistake again. The great thing about the Predator is that not only are they creepy unseen killers, but that they gruesomely take trophies. This movie is was already sounding too tame, but now it’s a bit too silly for me to care about. I may still check it out on D+, but I’m really not excited about it.

What Current Anime Are You Watching Version v4.0
Seto Kaiba replied to wolfx's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Inexpressive Kashiwada & Expressive Oota An odd-couple romance comedy about a pair of high school students: a hothead named Oota who has no poker face to speak of and the girl he lowkey likes, the phenomenally stoic Kashiwada. He's openly fascinated by her and is absolutely determined to do whatever it takes to crack her deadpan expression and get a visible reaction out of her, no matter how immature. Basically, the central premise of the series is one of those little kid crushes where they annoy the object of their affections as a way of showing interest. It's cute and refreshing, in a very innocent sort of way. Oota's such an open book that Kashiwada seems to have no trouble at all telling what he's up to and foiling his plans. -
Is that the one built out of all the regular sets in the line put together?

Here is a link to the 31A head from MDS. As mentioned, it's straight from the game without any alterations. I saved the whole head as an STL, but also made separate files of the head by itself and the eye pieces by themselves in case you would want to print them out of different materials. I also included and FBX version just in case that's easier to work with. At a minimum, I would think you have to model a ball joint into the base to adapt it into the DX, but hopefully this gives you a good starting point. Let me know if you have any questions. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1hJxO8ozaP97cWCX36qCHfz3M7c5ZLI3_?usp=sharing

Nah. I'm sure it'll be impressive once fully completed, but I bought the micro-scale full castle grounds set on a deep sale and haven't looked back, that's pretty much all I want and need from Harry Potter Lego.
-
Wait, it's a PG-13 Predator movie? That definitely feels like a misstep. I might've been tempted to see it in theaters, but now I think I'll wait for the streaming release. Sounds like they're making the same mistake as the first Alien vs Predator movie too. Well, yeah... but that's not an indicator of understanding the content of what's being said. I can record and play back birdcalls and the vocalizations of primates, but that doesn't mean I know what they're actually saying. I'm definitely with you there. The less we know the better, because their inscrutability was the main thing that made them scary. They were the Unknown and the Unknowable. You can't make them scary again as an unknown menace once you've been to their home and met their mum.

As soon as I can get me some top coat, it will be done. It’m just doing panel lining and the decals on that guy
-
@Big s @derex3592 Wow, those are both great looking kits! I want to see the sickie built up and that Falcon looks spicy 😬
-
Fortunately, swapping the shoulders is easy and takes less than 10 minutes. Just need to unscrew 2 screws per bicep which are easily accessible.

If anyone has 3 extra bills laying around......best price I've seen in a while for the Perfect Grade Falcon https://www.amazon.com/Bandai-Perfect-Grade-Millennium-Falcon/dp/B073ZRGX6T/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=nwKBC&content-id=amzn1.sym.7353e935-710e-4162-bbba-1f3ae9f93ec0&pf_rd_p=7353e935-710e-4162-bbba-1f3ae9f93ec0&pf_rd_r=HZJ9SSN9EAD02ENNNYPQ&pd_rd_wg=F7Ejy&pd_rd_r=ef684181-e8c6-4b50-8faf-2b321ba17eda&ref_=pd_hp_d_atf_dealz_cid&th=1

Yeah, I think the PG-13 rating will impact the dialog which I think was always an important and humorous part of the previous films too.
-
So anyone else, building the super detailed Hogward's Castle?
-
A PG-13 rating doesn't deter me, I still think it looks great and me and a couple buddies grabbed IMAX tickets last night. That said, PG-13 is certainly disappointing, especially after Prey being rated R and going hard on the violence and gore.
-
I didn’t notice that, that sucks. I’ll definitely stay home then.
-
And its rated PG-13... which I'm not surprised about with the trailers.

‘Heat 2’ Is On: Michael Mann Crime Drama
electric indigo replied to davidwhangchoi's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Coincidentally, I'm just watching Mann's 1981 neo-noir classic and Proto-Heat movie "Thief". James Caan's hard working criminal, rain-soaked night streets and Tangerine Dream's memerizing soundtrack still hit hard. The streaming version has excellent picture quality.
