  1. I was going to say something similar. Graham
  2. Ya gots to grow some fingernails! No short fingernails need apply! I use the fingernails of my left and right index finger, under the left and right sides of the canopy to gently and gradually raise/wiggle/prise the canopy straight up until it's far enough up that it can be hinged upwards. Graham
  3. Cool, the Tomahawk looks nice as well. Graham
  4. Yes, but micro-missile launcher doors are just doors and a completely different kettle of tuna to externally mounted semi-conformal missiles. Graham
  5. I love both fighter mode and battroid mode equally. I'm not really a gerwalk mode person at all for any VF. Graham
  6. You should also post this in the model forum! I wanna see a WM Cheng build up on this! Graham
  7. A quick tip in case you ruin the Diamond Force 'Double Triangle' emblem while trying to trim it, as I did twice..........doh! The Gamlin, Max and MIllia VF-22S sticker sheets also have this sticker on, so if you have any VF-22S toys, you will have a back up of this sticker (assuming you haven't used it already). Graham
  8. Pics please, wanna see what they look like when appplied Graham
  9. The only stickers you really need are 2 x UN Spacy Kites for the left and right sides of the chestplate hump and 1 x 'double triangle' Diamond Force logo for the left side of the chestplate. For the other stickers, just put them wherever you feel looks good. Personally, I feel the two sizes of UN Spacy Kite stickers supplied with the VF-17S are too big and too small. On my VF-17S, I've started using the UN Spacy Kite stickers from the v.2 VF-1 toys which I have loads of spares, as they never got used with the VF-1 toys. You can see from the attached pic, where I chose to place some of the stickers on my VF-17S. Graham
  10. I needed the spare canards. I broke one before, when a YF-19 took a tumble off the shelf. So yeah, thanks for including them Yamato. Graham
  11. Not much interest in this to be honest, even if subbed. Happy with my Animego set. Even if their were English subs, would Blu-ray honestly do anything to improve the video quality of an anime TV series from 1982? (honest question coming from someone who has yet to see the need for a Blu-ray player). And I already own Pefect Memory, so no need for that. Graham
  12. Damn, that Rayven looks nice, but was disappointed to find out it was an electric flywheel gun If it was a manual cocking springer, I would have bought it for sure. Graham
  13. "Who ya gonna call?" "Go Busters!" LOL Graham
  14. Impressive, most impressive. Graham
  15. Looking forward to a new and improved YF-19, as besides the loosness and cracking problems, it's really showing its age design-wise next to the beautiful VF-19Kai and VF-19S. Graham
  16. Have already emailed Yamato with your suggestions about: Having the 12 semi-conformal missiles detachable (a must). having hard-points on the wing, so that the VF-4 can fit the missiles from the v2 1/60 VF-1. Having the VF-4's hands designed so that they can hold the GU-11 gunpod from the v2 VF-1. Having a gunpod adaptor to allow the gunpod to be mounted in fighter mode. No reply yet though. Graham
  17. Finally got around to watching the First 7 episodes of season 2. Better than the second half of season 1, but still fairly meh. Still prefer the comic and Romero's movies for my Zombie fix. Graham
  18. Looks like crappy rear visibility for the pilot And saying, "well these things are designed for BRV combat, so we don't need rear visibility", is all well and good, but outside of planned and scripted air exercises, how often do rules of engagement and the political situation, actually allow a BRV shot in a real combat situation!? While I'm no expert, seems like everything available in the public domain regarding modern air combat always points to the need for pilots to get a confirmed visual ID with the MK I eyeball, before being allowed to shoot. And I don't see that changing. Graham Yeah, I work a lot with COFDM video & telemetry transmission systems and latency can be a bitch sometimes. Graham
  19. Rearranged my bedroom shelves. I love Macross 7 mecha And to keep it on topic, the VF-17S rocks! Graham
  20. Checked and sorry, I don't have it. The one I have which I thought might be it, is shown in the attached pic. Graham
  21. An Artdink Macross game is the only reason I would buy a PS Vita. Macross games are the only reason for buying 90% of all my games systems Graham
  22. 100% agree. Graham
  23. Yes, that is normal. The hip joint pulls out on both sides so you can swing it from fighter (upper) to battroid (lower) position. When you push both sides of the hip joint back in, in battroid mode, there will still be some movement, but not much. Graham
  24. I'll check tonight when I get home. Personally, I can't stand those Ranka and Sherly versions, so I just slung them all in a plastic bag, which got shoved on top of my closet and haven't looked at them since. Graham
  25. Is that really from Lockheed? Looks like something out of an Ace Combat game! Any links to articles? The F-22 is not that old, we need a replacement already? Mind you with the lengthy development and procurement processes these days, I guess it's probably time to start thinking about it. Graham
