"a transforming mecha" would mean one type of mecha, or a show that only had one transforming mecha right?
My guess is a Motoslave to go with the Yamato BGC figures.

I have a 720p version of GITS Innocence that fits on a single DVD-R. This movie looks amazing in even 720p. They did a great transfer.
I recently saw the first few episodes of Stand Alone Complex in HD, they also blew the DVD's out of the water. You absolutely can tell a higher def transfer from standard. It did significantly improve the visual experience for me, and I was quite amazed the entire time becuase I'd never seen anime look quite like that. I would love to see DYRL or Macross Plus in HD. I'd hold off judement until you'vet seen the difference between HD and SD anime on a good setup.
About the Blu-Ray vs HD-DVD thing, I bought a PS3, I could care less who wins the "war" because, Blu-Ray will have plenty of titles (it already does), and either the PS3 will burn out, or it will be time to buy a PS4, and I'll just upgrade then. Also, I'll be playing games for those 5 or 6 years with it.
Just my .02

I faced the same predicament -- sorry if I got the last on from Lost and Found Toys.
Now I can patiently wait for BBTS to get the shipment.I'm waiting on Twin Moons still. Supposed to be here this week according to an e-mail update I got. But I'm not sure if it means it will get to TMP this week, then take another week to get to me or what. Oh well, it's like waiting for Christmas

It's definitely justifiable. You guys do know that with this kit, the YF-19 can actually fold into another galaxy right?

Nice camera work.
In regards to the toy in general, there are some thing I love, and some nitpicks too.
Fighter and Gerwalk look pretty nice overall.
Cons:
Skinny head
Chicken hands
Too many seams in the middle of parts
Big gap in the lower chest, and crotch piece isn't shaped very close to the lineart
Where the outer shoulders meet the inner shoulders there's quite a gap (visible in head on view in fighter mode)

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...

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...
Do Remember Your Love

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.
