Hollywood has had remarkable success adapting comic book properties into live-action films over the last couple decades, but anime adaptations are always terrible...

...save Alita: Battle Angel, the exception that proves the rule. 

Not a Rurouni Kenshin LAM fan either? I thought the final and beginning were pretty good.

Hello,

I just received my parcel from calibre wings, so a quick debrief on "router-style-display-stand-version-2-0".
For 20$ you receive :
 Nice box, heavy basement (150grams), 1 long, 3 medium and 2 short rods, no instructions.

I try it with some figures, please pardon bad quality pictures, it's late, no natural light.🙄

(1/72 vf-1s, 1/72 vf-11, 1/60 yf-29, 1/48 vf-1a, 1/60 yf-25)

My fellings are positive about this display stand. My valks are well held.😀

But you have to position you model taking care of gravity center, or stand will fall over.
note : I have broken one of the little rods by forcing while the screws were fully tightened, while trying to reposition it...😱

Its my first third party display stand, but i m convinced.😊

Anyway, these are the only ones available on the market at the moment. 😥

I would be happy to answer your questions if you have any !

Thanks for the review. How long ago did you order? Mine is still stuck in China customs.

Just as a heads up; the stand was coming from China @ Calibre Wings and it's still being processed through customs.

Awesome!

Classified Snake Eyes on the White Knight Batmobile. Why not.

Personally I'd like the SVF-26 Cavaliers: VF-1A's to be done by Arcadia. Along with an updated VF-1S low vis.

Interesting. This movie is contact pounded on. I wouldn't pick it as my last movie on earth, but I did enjoy it.

Considering it's my last movie on earth: it actually gives me a little bit of everything in one movie. I get anthropology, space travel, intrigue, tethering to an older existing movie universe; but is strong enough to be viewed as its own thing, great cast, action, drama, etc. It's dynamic enough on its own though- I love watching Covenant straight after; that I don't need the follow up.

@blackconvoy_D01 - Interesting. Can you please share your thoughts on if they work well with the Macross valks? TIA.

 

Sure, NP! Vid link too (convinced me to try for an Arcadia VF-1S);

Prometheus 

I'm trying this:

And 2021 turns to be the year of world peace is moved forward by a few meters more!

Adding this VF-25/YF-29 hip joint hinge replacement part from @ChaoticYeti which is available in Shapeways for those who have crack hinge that needed to be repaired.

https://www.shapeways.com/product/P3NMXGCSY/v2-messiah-cracked-hips-replacement

 

This is due to @blackconvoy_D01's inquiry post on a separate thread pertaining to the said broken hinge joint.

 

So I got the part and then realized that the plastic areas around them are also cracked. As of this moment repair seems useless. I'll revisit by Friday.

I am so loving this! I'm watching at 8PM EST TONIGHT!

20 mins in and JL is already superior to Avengers.

Completely embraced:

Cool. Thanks! If there's going to be another round down the line, I'll try to preorder.

 

I actually regret not getting the modern version. Definitely do it. Next one is supposedly Midevil Spawn.

You're saying it's the same quality as the DC McFarlane's? Just curious since I missed preordering one last year.

 

No it's better: but from a scale/ sculping perspective it fits the line.

I'm optimistic for the Synder cut. The passive aggressive bashing is just bullshit from either the general public or Marvel/ Disney fan base IMHO. It's whatever. Haters gonna hate:

Not DC but Mcfarlane and easily fit in the DC Multiverse:

Kickstarter Spawn

How is that piece even installed?  It looks like one of those things you'd destroy the valk getting a new one put in.

I'm gonna find out at this stage.

I would recommend removing the pieces, using Devcon plastic welder on them, let them set and then when cured, reinstall.

I'm gonna give this a shot. Thanks!
