  1. you're not thinking 'big-picture'... if the place shuts down they're going to sell their assets to recoup losses... which means one of us may own that VF-11C someday! lol anyone else find it odd they went with bot a VF-11C and the Enterprise-C?
  2. Someone said Genndy Tartakovsky? Shut Up and TAKE MY MONEY!
  3. I'll pick one up just for the stowed-dome parts... if it comes with one.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Surely, it can be both sexy AND gratuitous? like a Lambo? only cheaper...
  5. 'Capillary Action' is, indeed, the term
  6. out of curiosity, what's the wing-span difference?
  7. call me when they can control the Su-57 with their brains...
  8. Steady there, Teddy Bear the grimoire thing IS odd... no explanation for that. But I'm sure he means well... he also accused the stickers of being "not bad"... clearly a skilled Gunpla-oriented modeler. Embrace the diversity because God knows we need everyone we can to be building models, especially Macross

    Sunlight effect

    it seems to be a thing that just happens over time. white model paint also yellows over time. We have a lively and long-running discussion on the subject. for me: all of my yammies are exposed to indirect [and sometimes direct] sunlight every day, a couple for 3+ years and they're fine, so far. All have been purchased 'used and displayed' by their previous owners, from various members here and elsewhere, none are yellowing on me. [I only have 1 DX valk [VF-31C] and it's simply not old enough to be factored into the discussion as evidence.] Everyone's mileage seems to vary, so zoom them around the room/play with them regularly while they're pristine, and that way you won't notice the gradual shift as much [this is my plan btw ]
  10. Honestly, these are the best renders I've ever seen of it... maybe painting the airframe white was their biggest error....
  11. This just got shelved for arcadia's 1/60 FB2012 VF-4... too bad... i'll have to hunt one of these down later
  12. After struggling to get up to speed on my tomcat, it'll be nice to fly a fly-by-wire-Falcon for a change.
  13. Fraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak... it's more expensive than I was hoping... ah well... I'm gonna keep the smaller bandai one too... such a pretty plane...
  14. Ordered 2... gonna steal that second Dragonskull for a '31A
  15. Well, BandaiNamco published Macross30, so we should pester them about it!
  16. the original NGE always struck me as more of a "Frustrated to the point of madness/depression" rather than hateful... which only drove him deeper into his spiral as he realised his work was merely feeding the otaku he was ridiculing exactly what they wanted: anime-boobs, hyper-violence, and an escape from our reality through a window into a worse one.
  17. Resins also tend to get hot as the chemical reactions take place...
  18. You know, I wish that weren't true... but such is the state of things
