shazam replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I am kind of glad this model does not come with the trailer. The trailer would be just more money, an oversized box and an accessory piece that may get used in truck mode. Takara Tomy won't stop at just one model though. Variants will always be around the corner to fish for extra sales.- 18031 replies

I'm sure it's not an official image but one that was taken and done up from the short preview that was posted! We won't have the final design until the OVA is released!? But it looks good so-far, Just also hope that the final version gets a quick release in the Hi-Metal R line! 🤗

It's great to get a better look at the design, but I hope that's an unfinished image, as it seems to be lacking some surface detail.

anime52k8 - I can't stop looking at them and I hate them for it. I'm sure someone will make those exact pieces as an aftermarket custom to fix what should of been done right the first time by Takara Tomy. All of the accessories on Optimus Prime's back seem equally distracting. wow, that's a good price but where is his cab? is there going to be an MP Style trailer? like the wheels and hubcaps don't match if i use mp-10's trailer.- 18031 replies

Since I display my units with the fast-packs attached I really didn't notice it! I'm just glad I didn't get it from LunaPark broken! The only thing that bothered me was that they did the detailing for the Mech-Guts edition but didn't detail it! 😢

Yep, layer lines from the printing are pretty clear on the photo. Might be a fun winter project, but I'd need to buy a whole bunch of colors I don't already have.- 9458 replies

I've seen quite a few of these types of videos recently on YouTube for different mecha series. This is definitely one of the better ones.

Some in-color pics of the Plamatea GiTS SAC Motoko: I've been tempted to get the Hiya one but hesitant cuz of the facesculpts and price (and the disjointed looking butt ). I like the faces on this much better. Anybody here familiar with building Plamatea kits? Watched a couple of builds on YT and only one faceplate was pre-painted and the rest you had to put stickers on, so I'm not sure if the first bullet description above is accurate. From the vids, it seems like most of the parts are molded in their proper color. I hope this will scale well with the Figma pants version.
-
Oh, if you just mean removing the entire backpack, that might be easier. I think someone showed the rough disassembly in an older thread when they were documenting painting the gear.
-
I sort of meant the entire backpack part, both fins attached and all, its just gotta be a screw or two right? guess now I'd have the orange and the light tan being off...I'll just need to close one eye when I squint
-
The disassembly really is a nightmare, it's why no one does it. Bandai has a bad habit of gluing things together, then screwing them together, then gluing panels over the screws so you have no way to access anything. I would be similarly pissed about the tails, but I just display the VT-1 with the boosters on it to solve the issue Though I guess I kind of adjusted to them on the Yamato? Bandai didn't invent the stubbies, they just copied them. I still want to see someone do this with them, though.
-
Can I just re-rant on Bandai completely blowing it on the VT-1 tailfins...seriously this looks idiotic. I have a burner DX VF-1D...how hard is it to swap out the tailfin backpack on a DX? Where are the DX disassemblers around here...is it hard? The orange on the VF-1D is slightly off, but maybe it wouldn't be that noticeable if I squint.

The Third Party Gundam Thread
Valkyrie Hunter D replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
If you saw this inconspicuous looking box in a store, I bet you wouldn't know it contained a Master Grade sized knockoff of a Real Grade God Gundam kit: From my brief inspection, it looks like the color pallete of the RG God Gundam was accurately copied and the plastic is of good quality. Looking forward to a good build session.- 2186 replies
