    MΔ - VF-9

    Looks like @Xigfrid Nailed it.
  2. Blood for the Blood God, SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE! man I'm pumped for this!

    Macross figures

    Sheryl got some flight training, maybe they thought she looked hotter in a set of overalls... [safer to give here an impact drill than a VF-25 too....]
  4. someone say splinter camo?
  5. It certainly doesn't look like that scheme itself would be very effective... speaking of seemingly ineffective camo, this is India's Prototype Light Attack chopper: Malaysia is doing it better: it actually breaks up the outline of the bird [you know, what camouflage is supposed to do] <<EDIT>> The JASDF is doing it better too:
  6. you got me thinking................................. and Actually: I don't think it's supposed to move at all... the flap seems to remain perfectly stationary while the backpack flips up over top of it You can see it "extended and stationary" again here: I think the whole pivoting-flap thing arose because that plate is overtech-anime-magic that would completely obstruct what we now all know and love as the normal range of motion for the backpack on a toy. So, Turns out there is room to 'accurize' that part..... but it may be more trouble than it's worth.
  7. LOL! Mig-28 forever!! I would like a more accurate HUD...
  8. Xbox, Ps4, Windows Wiki: PC release 1 month later
  9. Consumerism is a voluntary enterprise...Taxation is Robbery! it's an impressive Eva... but inspecting those close-up pics, for the money this will cost, I'm with @kajnrig:
  10. I would recommend Yetistand for the Ultimate in presentation. [He's also a member here on the boards, there's a very active thread about Yetistands here. Yeti is quite active and very helpful, I would suggest further inquiries be directed there.] I'm planning on picking up this combo for mine: Yetistand Beta [+ etched UN Spacy Kite] + 1/6 Figure Adapter So has yours tipped forward yet? or have you been lucky? Mine has an imperfect helmet beak now... <<Edit>> OH! and Welcome to the Madness!!

    Hi-Metal R

    VF-1D Profile VT-1 Profile VT-1 Ortho Look pretty Normal sized to me... EDIT They're smaller on the Hasegawa kit though... that's likely where this compromise for the anime magic became standard. D5 vs K9 [k9 is the standard valk stabilizer... it's greyed-out to signify "do not use"]
  12. If they ERASED Ben Affleck and replaced him with Bruce Timm's batman they'd be infinitely better... Hush is one of my favorite Batman arcs, and since DC Animated is doing it, that means this storyline will be safe from the hands of the WB Live-Action people. *massive relief* Sword of Azrael and Knightfall would be sweet.
  13. The through-engine gun really became a thing with the F series... the F-1 had a 15mm MG, and the F-2 got the 20mm cannon and they never went back... then some G models started getting 30mm cannons and .50 cal machine guns [instead of 8mm MG]
  14. Maybe this playlist can help a little?
  15. I used to be like that, but since I've been playing with one of my VF-1A brownies for the last week or so, I'm over it. play with 'em, they'll be fine
  16. Well, that is a TV suit and helmet...
  17. Pruduction Block Variations [ie: block 1 vs Block 6]... like they said about the difference between a SDFM and DYRL VF-1A instrument panel...

    Hi-Metal R

    Where does one get those??!
  19. that was highly entertaining, thanks for that!!
  20. well, for a while there it didn't look like we were going to get any Gerwalks out of Hase... then it happened... I'm just unsure if a new Battroid would be profitable enough [I see WAY more fighter-modes and gerwalks in collections than Hase Battroid models], and with Bandai making fully-transformable kits... the probability is low methinks.
  21. any version of the 17/171 will be fine...
  22. how would one PF the VF-19 Kai? Ugly little "do THIS, don't do THAT" stencils all over Basara's bird? that ain't Rock-n'-Roll...
  23. Hasegawa does fine, the only trifecta is the VF-1 for them.
  24. if we're talking 1/32 then I'd like to see Tamiya try it... I'd love to be able to pose all the flight surfaces or strip/open all the panels. Transformation in that scale would of course mitigate any loss of extra internal engine detail etc
