    So my boss/friend who is a huge Star Wars fan, and who believes money can buy everything.... picked this up online to put up in his media room. He's not a modeler, so he wants to pay me to paint/weather and light the engines up with blue LED tape, it so it looks like my 1:72 Finemolds kit....which I told him it never really will. They really did a pretty good job on the toy straight out of the box except for two major oversights. Number one being the cockpit glass is just grey plastic and the gun turret windows are grey plastic is as well, there are pre cut black stickers for those. However the biggest omission is the detail on the sidewalls. 3D looking stickers were included for that. It's like someone had a budget meeting and said they were over budget and no one would pay $20 more bucks if they had to mold the rest of the details on the sidewalks. BOOO!!! Other than that it's pretty darn cool. So today I started out by trying to get the thing primered. We'll see how this goes...

    hmmmm...Interesting take on this Bandai...definitely more of an aggresive look than the Yamato/Arcadia version. Happy for those getting it. Enjoy! I'll be sticking with my 1:60 Valks and patiently awaiting the Bandai Destoids and enemy mecha

    That's freakin hot right there!

    No. It's just toooo much red. Can't be that red unless ur a karaoke ninja named Basara.... Also, I did TRY to panel line the Zola 19, but ended up bailing out about half way in and washing it off as the Yamato lines were just damn shallow to hold the wash, which sucks as it was gonna look pretty cool. Arcadia could learn a few things from Bandai about how to do perfect panel lines.

    Thanks! Basically I wanted to show the top of it and was to lazy to go back to fighter mode...lol. Also, got some stickers on my Zola Patrol 19. I just kinda had fun, so I know they may not "be correct". And a 29 group shot!

    Had some time today, so I got my new Isamu 29 all panel lined up and ready to go!

    Fantastic job so far!
  12. derex3592
    yes. Apparently they are. Or just completely clueless. Which I'm beginning to believe.
  13. derex3592
    Perfectly stated!

    True Story.

    Hmm.....anybody wanna bet they'll make the next main Valk the VF-35? To go along with the F-35 hub bub?
  17. derex3592
    Well frack a duck
  18. derex3592
    Great instructions there! 1:60 ordered!
  19. derex3592

    Major strike one for me with Disney regarding SW if all this is accurate.
  21. derex3592
    I picked up the Bandai 1/12 C-3PO from SSM last night. I wanted the storm trooper as well, but it's back ordered. I'll keep an eye out and see if it come in. That covers me for the current Bandai releases of what I want. The future releases, well, we'll just have to wait and see how that plays out.

    All the ladies love the Valks! ......or at least they do in my head.
  23. derex3592
    Very cool indeed!
  24. derex3592
    This news SUCKS. Damn. These Bandai kits are freaking great. I guess if these Revell Master level kits are direct copies of the old Fine Molds kits, that's cool, but I wanted a lot of the newly announced Bandai kits.
  25. derex3592
    Great pics guys! Yeh, the BFG (big effing gun) is a real pain to get to fit in a Deltolf with other Valks on the same shelf with guns of their own.
