A typo? Shouldn't that say 'bust feature', not 'best feature'.........LOL. Graham

I still haven't beaten Sulejmani on normal difficulty yet on phase 2 of mission 21A. Been using the Typhoon. I've tried dozens of times. I can take down the other 3 members of Varcolac squadron easily, within a couple of minutes, using QAAMs, but Sulejmani is a real bastard to kill. Graham

Rather than moaning that this is not a 1/72 scale non-transforming,fighter mode-only model, you guys should be thankful that we actually have a company like Experten making these cool transforming kits. And besides, there's already somebody else making mon-transforming fighter mode resin VF-171 and RVF-171 garage kits. Graham

Just picked up the new Clone Wars 'ARC Troopers' battle pack for my son yesterday. Surprised to see it out so soon. The pack contains the following 4 figures: Captain Rex with sniper rifle (heh, I think we now have about 4 Captain Rex figures). But at least this one has a tight helmet, that doesn't fall off easily, unlike the older Rex figures. ARC Trooper Commander (red trim, phase 1 helmet, no backpack). ARC Trooper with Phase 2 helmet, backpack and blue trim (similar to as seen in episode 2 of season 3). ARC Trooper with Phase 2 helmet, backpack and red trim (similar to as seen in episode 2 of season 3). Scans of battle cards and back of box attached (edit - larger scan of cards just attached) I'd like to make a request. When anybody buys a new figure(s) can they please scan and post the battle card(s). Graham

Wow, it looks amazing painted and decaled and with the weapons mounted on the wings. The nose and canopy look much better also now. I think having the canopy frame in black really helps. I want. Graham

As David H said, he was hired and paid to design the Gundam in 0083. Doesn't mean he loved Gundam. I'm paid to do my job, doesn't mean I love it either. Graham

I wish people wouldn't keep claiming this, when there is no evidence one way or another showing that when Macross Frontier was created, that Kawamori was still a Gundam fan. Yes, there is some evidence that Kawamori was a Gundam fan 28 years ago, when SDF Macross was created. I have no dispute with that. But I have yet to see any evidence (that I am aware of), to show that he is still a Gundam fan today (please feel free to correct me if I am wrong). So yes, he may or may not be a Gundam fan today, or he may absolutely detest Gundam now. Unless the man himself says so, people shouldn't keep claiming he IS a Gundam fan and that Gundam influenced the Frontier VF designs. At best we can say with any certainty Kawamori was a Gundam fan 3 decades ago! Graham

Outstanding. I love the VF-171 and I love Experten's kits. Just a pity they are produced in such small quantities and so hard to get hold of for most of us outside of Japan, unless you are willing to spend silly money bidding on Yahoo Japan auctions. I agree the canopy and the nose look a little off. And yes, the poll choices don't make much sense. Graham

I just unlocked a 6th paint scheme for my Typhoon. Graham

Excellent first two episodes. I especially liked the ARC Troopers episode. Some great action and dialog. My son really enjoyed watching them too. Can't wait for next week's episode. Graham

I doubt very much that Trial Frontier will be a PSP port. And no, the movie will not have English subs. Graham

Sweet! Somebody has to make a 1/72 die-cast replica of this soon. Russia has the best paint schemes. USAF & RAF paint schemes are so boring these days. Graham

In Joint Assault, you can get upgrade parts for the real planes. Graham

Thanks, GRAND CANNON. Thos scans are great, even if I already have some of them already. When you modify the stats on the other cards could you post the pics the same way please. Also, you mentioned some links for other cad pics? Graham

Bloody hell, mission 21A is hard! No problem taking down the first 3 Varcolacs, but usually run out of time before killing the leader. Graham

Love this game, but if I have to destroy one more Spiridus, I am going to scream! Graham

Definiely interested in getting these when you have the stats done. My son loves these cards. Anybody know of any website that has the regular cards to print out? I'm not buying 2/3 of my son's figures for him again, just so he can get the cards! Graham

Hell yeah, the last panel in that comic is my life. Graham

The Daily Mash on Halo Reach....LOL! Graham

Just buy yourself a PSP already and AC:Joint Assault (and MUF of course)! Graham

An all new YF-19 is actually a possibility for the future (say 2-3 years later), but far from confirmed at this stage. More in the 'we're just starting to consider it' category. Mylenes - no. Graham Resin sculpt only at the moment. They are still a long way from having anything in plastic. Blazer will definitely come. Graham

Ha, one of my gripes with the AC series has always been how combat is too close up and there are no real BRV missiles. Graham

Ha, didn't even know this was still going. The local station that was screening it here in Hong Kong (TVB Pearl), dropped it years ago after season 3 or 4 IIRC. Is uber-cutie Kristen Krueck still in it? She is just MCOT! Graham

That is a surprising large number of parts. Graham
