STAR WARS Merchandise Episode - 2
tekering replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Oh yes, because we desperately need another. π At least the HasLab version will have a unique cardback. βΊοΈ -

Compared to Bandai's Metal Build line, perhaps... and maybe the weak yen means Β₯30,000 isn't as much as it used to be, but... it's still Β₯30,000. π€¨ Plus, it's too big to scale with any other IDW figures (official or otherwise). π- 17378 replies

I had exactly the same response to seeing Furiosa -- most of which is set in the open desert, for chrissake -- and yet, they felt the need to fake so much of it... A '60 Star Trek set would've looked more convincing (and at a fraction of the cost of this lousy CGI composite). It's an even bigger disappointment than Dial of Destiny, really, since Indiana Jones had already screwed the pooch with Kingdom of the Crystal Skull... whereas Fury Road had done so much for real. Who would've expected the sequel to look more like a video game than a film? π

Looks like he didn't follow the instruction manual very closely... His missiles aren't facing the wrong direction. π

Kitz Concept Toy Thread 2.0
tekering replied to Stampeed Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I feel like their "shocking sales" meant the beginning of the end for KC. Kickstarter feels more like the final Hail Mary. π¬- 2542 replies

They're probably sick and tired to delivering stuff to my house week after week after week... I suppose. π ...and replaced it with their own, yes.

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread

Who could've expected such prejudice, such hatred, such discrimination against machine intelligence... in a Transformers thread...?! π¬- 9333 replies

You've absolutely outdone yourself, @jvmacross, with the most comprehensive review gallery I've ever seen. Kudos! Incidentally... I love these flight crew figures. Can I ask where you got them?

I'm a little disappointed by the prominent sprue marks on the front-facing side of the FAST packs... π€¨ ...but it's nothing a little sanding can't fix. π Of course, the DX Chogokin YF-21 is an expensive collector's item to be using sandpaper on. π¬ I have no unique insights to share; aesthetics have always mattered more than engineering to me, and I display and photograph a lot more than I transform, so... Bandai's is the more accurately-proportioned and better-articulated battroid, so that's the mode you display it in. Arcadia's is the more accurately-proportioned (and not overly-tampographed) fighter, so that's the mode you display it in. π Oh, the ratchets in the ankles are superb, and it's capable of some excellent action poses. π I'm afraid my lightbox is inaccessible for the moment, so pics from the anime room will have to suffice. π

Mine's intact, thankfully. π You can always do it yourself... My Yamato is a little more restrained than the tampo on Bandai's. π

Upgrading a classic: yet another custom Bandai/Matchbox 1/3000 SDF-1
tekering replied to tekering's topic in The Workshop!
Wow, great to see there's still interest in the ol' SDF-1. π² My inkjet printer is slowly dying, and I don't think I'll be able to print custom decals any more... π However, I bought an SLA resin printer last month, and the detail it's capable of is stunning. π€© So as you can see, I've got a ton of new modeling projects to distract me. π -
Kitz Concept Toy Thread 2.0
tekering replied to Stampeed Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
That seems unlikely, seeing as we don't even have pics of a painted prototype for the pilot figure... I have no interest whatsoever in this Regult toy, but I really want that Zentraedi soldier! π€€- 2542 replies

I'm both honoured and flattered to see some of my suggestions have again been incorporated into your design. π₯° Mind the gap, Cap! π Any plans to address that? π€ I realize you're somewhat hamstrung by your design philosophy, but I'd hoped you could figure out a more practical way to attach the arms... Just as I feared, that shoulder connection looks precarious at best. π¬ Finally, any way to add "skin" to those bony hands? π

The Acolyte - Disney Plus Star Wars Series
tekering replied to jvmacross's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Surprisingly, it shows there's still interest in Disney Star Wars (despite how audiences responded to Ahsoka, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and The Book of Boba Fett)... πΆ ...as opposed to Disney Marvel, whose Secret Invasion and Echo series were all-but ignored by general audiences. π Perhaps Deadpool and Wolverine will manage to buck the trend... π€ It will surely earn more than The Mandalorian and Grogu will. π€¨ -
Actually, this is a script from Mospeada.

Now you have a great review of a toy no one else has reviewed on YouTube, rather than a review for the relevant toy everybody else has already reviewed. I'd say your reviews of vintage toys have more intrinsic value, owing to what little information exists elsewhere.
