  1. I don't watch the show. Not into zombies, not into constant darkness and death, but I still follow threads out of curiosity. About the car seat, was the baby awake at the time she was buckled in? Because the people filming may have just needed a way to keep her in the seat while they were shooting the scene, without the danger of her falling out.
  2. Yeh, my will crumpled and I ordered two. One I'm going to do as a Jolly Roger's tribute plane, sine I have the decals for it and I just love the way the Bandai one turned out. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/toyark/101574-macross-thread-1739.html The other, I may use the Bandai parts from Luca's RF-25 to make a static one with the drones. That'll give me a coupl eof kits to kit-bash into other fighters or even a starship or two!!
  3. I'd go with this. One of the major problems of not continuing the story but deciding to retell it, is that they are going to make changes that will open plot holes. It was perfectly fine the first way they did it. Why waste time simply rebooting the same story rather than continue it afterward? That's almost like Roboteching... Such as when Alto swoops down after saluting goodbye to his plane and picks up Ranka and they fly off to explore the new world...
  4. Oh, how I love that! Now only if our own Western culture would get the hint!
  5. Awesome Oberth! You can't tell you did all that work. Which is a good thing.
  6. It looks great, and I'm glad the gear are looking better than the Bandai version. Although I will say that the pilots do look too big for the bird. I'm going to have to use the Bandai figures if I do put a pilot in them. I can't wait to get one! Or two... Maybe three...
  7. Great work! It looks like it was lifted straight out of the anime. And nice job with the display.
  8. That looks pretty sweet.
  9. Some great builds going on, from the Battlestar Pegasus, those great F/A-18s to the aves canvas top, the Starbucks ride and the ample nacelles Scotty so appreciates! Great stuff. Here's my little contribution, my Battlestar Aegis...
  10. It looks old and it sounds old, and the time I would have watched something like that without caring was when I was twelve... That, and I don't like shows based on flashbacks...
  11. When I did my Mk II, the decals literally fell apart in the water... Except for those, really nice build.
  12. I'm working right now on a 'roll bar' equipped Valkyrie class ship from BSG, This one is named the Aegis and has capabilities akin to an AWACS through its Advanced Range DRADIS system. The ARDRIS. I'm using the Bad-Azz Valkyrie 1/2500 kit, though I'm scaling it down to 1/4105 and using Paragrafix PE set for the launch bays. This is after I cut into the resin to fit the PE piece.
  13. I remeber that scene. As a kid I was still touched and saddened when I saw it.
  14. Oh Gawd! What did they do to Optimus!?!?! He looked fine before, now they've blinged him out! Oh, please reboot and give me a real Transformers movie!
  15. Well, when they flew out of Alaska Base, they didn't fly very far. Not with a busted canopy. And I always thought that the Macross settled into a crater not too far from them. As it sure looked like it was in no condition to fly anywhere else...
  16. I like the work on those trunks! Pretty neat.
  17. Have to love those lucky finds...
  18. I came across this while doing some looking around before starting my Jolly Roger'a tribute VF-25S. There are three pics a little more than half way down of a white VF-25 with forwards swept wings and a different head peice. http://www.sgcollect.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=59491&st=180 The wings, I'm sure, are from the YF-19. I think the head too, and the shield definitely. The idea needs a little work, but that might be a future build!
  19. You got that for a DOLLAR!!? I hate, but envy you so much. I just dropped fifty on one...
  20. It's still up, about $30 with FREE shipping! But only 9 left... http://www.amazon.com/Hasegawa-48-F-22-Raptor-USAF/dp/B0038JCAKI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1373324572&sr=8-1&keywords=1%2F48+hasegawa+F-22
  21. You're going to turn it into a flying, transforming repair yard! Awesome.I can't wait!
  22. Sweet! Nice start on the the shading. And you're right, it is a weighty kit.
  23. That tank looks great. Cool WHIF!
  24. I know, but you get a lot of detail for that fifty, even before spending almost twice that on the PE sets, if you'r not going to buy the resin detail peices from Catalyst Creations https://www.facebook.com/pages/Catalyst-Creations/345458355475644 - and someone may be doing more detailed engines... whew... A little more done today, She finally started to wear her gray, after I added the long range tactical comm suite, ...and the dome of what I'm calling the Advanced Range DRADIS - ARDRIS for short, And the gray, Now I have to finish the engines and get the guns loaded up and she'll soon be dun.
  25. Oh yah! I've seen that picture, and have plans of - eventually - doing a similar mod. Nicely done on that one! Kewl.
