Looks like they're leaning hard into weathering versions.

Little update on the IMAI Quel-Quallie. There will be a lot of elements needed to be worked out and painted during the assembly process. Almost all of the parts will be captured inside the main body of the ship so unless I deal with them in advance it would be a headache later. Most of the parts also need seam removal or filling of some kind. There are a bunch of these small recessed circle shapes throughout and a little sanding and putty takes care of that no problem. The biggest area needing attention is the void area in the rear between the thrusters. It’s just open and shows some rather clunky attachment points etc… doesn’t look good at all I decided to try and make it more interesting by using some pla plate, a spare part from a Hasegawa VE-1 kit and some Milliput. I’m going to add some more small details as I go like a couple pairs or antennas simply made from brass rods and possible some panel lines. So far so good. It’s a very simple kit like most of these old vintage models.

From what I can tell from that video, the joints and that pelvic attachment looks tight. Hopefully that QC problem Cod roe got with his unit isn’t common.

Yes, and true to the lineart.

When I had friends at Sentinel, they said they were having a hard time justifying the mold costs because they didn't think the other versions would be marketable. There was conversation about possibly doing them as exclusives but even that seemed unlikely.

The CMs one came with a sword, didn't it?
-
Another C hit the market @ Mandarake. I'd snag it, but need to cool my rockets or my wife is going to wombo-combo me. Maybe someone here can find it a home.
-
I think I'm in for this 13" tall Legioss - already worked up the spot in the hex case. Regarding the tread - has there been any rumbling of an Iota version?
-
Now, there's an accessory I wouldn't even bother to 3D-print. 😑

Most everything else about the Burn was shyte, but having Earth no longer be a part of the Federation was (IMO) a nice twist. And something I could see happening, esp after the destruction of most of Starfleet and any other facility using dilithium in their power generation. Earth, being the 'heart' of the Federation could have been hardest hit and taken the longest to recover in the post-dilithium universe.

@Cheese3 I’m digging your neon color schemes. I’m a kid of the 80’s and those vibrant colors brings nostalgia.

Honestly, I didn't really notice Hook's head's black void until you guys pointed it out. I think it would have helped had his purple chest accoutrement been adjusted to sit a centimeter higher. Why they didn't do that or just make the purple thing a little larger to cover it is anybody's guess. I honestly don't think it's out of a lack of care on either Takara's or Hasbro's parts. I think they're invested (except when it comes to designing a good jet, then they're all out on smoke breaks) in doing a good job, but I'm thinking there are an abundance of factors that determine why things are done the way they are. As for the offset leg bots, Takara's not the first to do so, and while it does look a little off, I get the logic behind it. The only other option would have been to give him birthing hips with a wider thigh gap to line up the legs midway, but I'm sure that decision would have gone over like so much steaming slag. With that in mind, I think they chose the right option. Moreover, chances are there will be at least one add-on kit that addresses it and other complaints from the fandom, and beyond. -
My biggest gripe with this show, is that we have to contend with the established DSC backdrop stupidity of humans/earth having dropped out of the Federation. It is so galling to me that something humanity fought and stood for all of previous Star Trek was wiped out in a single episode because of "we don't have warp drive!".
-
Yeah, I don't have much faith in them being able to pull it off. I like that they have Holly Hunter and Dadmiral, but right now that is not enough. I'll give it a look, but if it is too STD() then I'll pass.
-
I don't think that is going to happen anytime soon, Deathscythe EW/Roussette is releasing this month and then there is this floating around:

Finally, the Legioss will come with its iconic Power Sword! 😄

The black block is probably the one thing that sticks out most to me. The thing with the legs is understandable but the way they implemented it looks like someone forgot to slide it all the way. I think with a different sculpt in that area it would look less egregious. -
Klingon's in the TOS always had something gold looking. I mean mostly it was those over the shoulder sash's but still.
-
The circuit board looking internal parts on the shoulder, arms and wings might look better if they changed it from green to the same metallic color of the internal parts of the feet and crotch area.

STAR TREK: Glee ? lol

I agree. In battroid doesn't quite come together, and looks very insect like. But plane mode is really all I care about.
