I had a chance to open one box to rifle through its contents (the Green, Yellow Dancer version. All the same I think, except the plastic colour and decals).

Can't comment on how hard it is to build but the quality seems good. I was very tempted to buy it.

To be fair, how many painted plastic models can take repeated transformations?

Exactly, you just have to take care with them like any transforming painted models.

The pics in the link are all sweet . . . .

The SR-71 is one of my favorite birds (aside from the F-14). . .

Forgive me for sounding like a noob,

But the thing I always wondered was if the unit on the top of the SR-71 was a drone or another engine?

I know it might not be the smartest thing to mount up there, but I've never been really sure. . .

Usually you see it without the component on top.

And I saw on the History Channel there were more models but they really don't go to far in to them. . .

Good info on the drone.

I have one I can sell, but I can't let it go for $185 since I paid a lot more for it. I'm thinking more like $250 and even then I'm taking a hit. I probably won't build it this decade, so if someone wants it, PM me.

The first episode of Torchwood was really good. I had a lot of fun watching it and the twists were excellent.

The second one was okay, but had too much of a gratuitous, "look how adult we can be" feel to it.

Anyone catch the almost, but not quite cameo of the Doctor?

Yeah, I like Torchwood so far. I just wish there wasn't so much bi-sexual innuendo on this show, it's hard to show it to family when every character is bi. I can handle it though, I work in a really PC office environment, gotta be accepting of everything these days.

The cameo: I thought Captain Jack just really loves spare bodyparts until I thought about where it came from.

In case someone who might be interested missed my post the other day...

Boeing Museum of Flight pics (Seattle)

I took these a few weeks back when my cousin came to visit. In the same directory are pics from the Sci-Fi museum (where you are not supposed to take pics, so they are blurry). Also some pics from the Space Needle.

Couldn't the codpiece be reversible? One side for battloid, one side for fighter, it would just swivel where it connects to the moving arm thingy.

I wouldn't mind a refund either...

(FYI: Paypal apparently goes back forever. It was depressing to look thru the history, I've spent 10s of thousands on things that are not vital to survival )

Got one from TMPAnime as well, with one broken tailfin tip. I'll try to glue it back on. Pretty cool toy, though the transformation is a little more difficult than the 1/48 vf-1.

The video brought a tear to my eye. That was awesome! Nice work!

Just had a flashback reading this. I always loved the part where he gets shot in the head (bandanna apparently made of kevlar), and starts walking around like a dazed zombie for a few seconds.

Also, that Ferrari was pretty sweet.

I like the title description...

Lots of other work here...

Great video. The scenes they chose do match the lyrics pretty well. There actually is a scene of flags going up

Two others I like are one done to a Future Sound of London song, and one done to Dune's Electric Heaven. You used to be able to find all of these on animemusicvideos.org

It's a quote from 4chan.org

It was a meme about a year ago over there. You rarely see it now. We had a 4chan thread here back then, I think I posted one of the pics there.

You can see some of the models built by Macrossworld member Jung here (the first 3 links)...

So, no one is going to mention the $2k+ Tread that just sold?

Thanks, I searched but didn't find a current thread. To be fair, I don't think it's absurd to pay a lot for something this rare, it's still amazing to see.

I dug out the box

Here's the part I need help with. I need to create this ostrich type upper leg joint. Please give me your ideas, I haven't been able to come up with a good solution. I can drill these sections out and insert anything that will fit and then putty it up. I'm open to canabilizing another toy for parts or creating / ordering parts.

Thanks for any help, and I do appreciate the comments!

Yuck Federal Way!  Yuck Washington.  I just never liked living there but my father lives there from time to time I visit the state.

Btw please replace your Avatar or I'll remove it and give you a new member title.

Um, thanks for the yucks, glad I came back.

Goodbye avatar.

I normally work weekends, so can never do anything like this. This month though, I have the 18th and 19th off, and was wondering if anyone would like to get together, have some beer and pizza, and watch some Macross related stuff on a 5ft by 5ft screen at my house in Federal Way. I also have some PSX and PS2 Macross games, plus a nifty Macross/Mospeada model collection to check out.

If you are interested, please let me know. If you have anything obscure related to Macross, you can bring it. I'd love to see that knock off Macross anime (I can't remember the name).

???????

Sorry, I never saw these last few replies.

I didn't get much further than what's been posted. Cars have been taking all my time. I have a box that keeps begging me to open it up and work on it again. I'll take a look at it this next week. What stopped all progress was the upper leg gerwalk section. I couldn't figure out how to make it stable. I'll need help in figuring that out still.

One of the cars slowing me down.
