    VERY comprehensive gallery, @jvmacross.

    That's deeply ironic... and yet, this low-viz scheme is still a total success by Kitz Concept standards.

    Thanks! How's this one?

    Clearly, the Mortal Headd aesthetic appeals to those with expensive taste. 😋

    I have that issue myself, actually... It has 24 pages devoted to Mospeada. A complete series breakdown, including information on specific concepts and setting... ...scale comparison art from the animation model sheets... ...and more full-color line art than I've seen published before.

    Very impressive, @Perxion! It was over much too soon. 😔

    I hope those are hand-painted prototypes. The white surfaces look particularly rough, especially on the thighs and the helmet. 🤨

    Hey, are those 3D-printed parts? Bowie's helmet looks great!

    Worst packaging yet. Not only is McFarlane too cheap to make individual cardbacks for the figures, they're not even putting labels on the blisters? 🤨 Is that supposed to be Jim Gordon? Alfred Pennyworth? Somebody else? It's a rare sight indeed to see action figure packaging with absolutely nothing to indicate who the character is supposed to be....!

    Unquestionably, yes. 😋

    Beautiful lighting -- and I love your angles -- but dust your Transformers properly before you photograph them! 😅

    No, it's an awesome piece with some wonderful display options, but it's just not big enough to justify the cost. If I'm spending over $300, I expect something appropriately massive. 😋 It has inspired me to make a cape for my Mega Sofvi, however. 😇 At 53cm, it's not hard to make space for... It's got great shelf presence, but it's not nearly as big as some third-party combiners, much less my "Jumbo Grade" mobile suits... In fact, it's not even among the ten largest figures I own. I wish it was bigger, actually.

    With the yen as weak as it's been in decades, $133 USD (plus shipping) will cost me a lot more than it would have when the pre-orders first went up a year ago... For that price, I could order NINE 1:72 Regults from Hasegawa, and still have change left over. Is the Zentraedi soldier figure alone worth that much to me...? 🤔

    Mega Sofvi in da house! 🤗 Finally, a GunBuster big enough to display with other robot figures. ☺️ Every other GunBuster toy or model is so small, it doesn't really scale with anything... ...but at roughly 1:450 scale, the Mega Sofvi works with my smallest Mobile Suits, at least. 🤓

    Pretty cool having my model on the box. 😎
  16. tekering
    It's not that much larger than the Regult box (and a little shallower, even)... 🤔

    Excellent detective work as always, @Big s.

    I got the King Crab reissue! 🤗 Great new packaging, sturdy and compact box... Sealed with a fancy new rainbow sticker! 😯 The new eye detail looks good, too.

    Alien biotechnology was all the rage in 1984. 😅

    I love the work you're putting into upgrading these. I should hope you do!
  21. tekering
    You definitely do. It's really well-written, and acted with great conviction by a largely bilingual cast... which can't be said for any Godzilla film.

    My God, you're right. I remember being very impressed with Discovery at the beginning. How ironic, given the awkward growing pains that most Star Trek series have suffered through in their first seasons... The early episodes of DS9, Enterprise and Voyager are easily the worst, and The Next Generation's first season is best ignored entirely. 🤨 How is it that Discovery squandered so much promise, so quickly...? 🤔

    @tekering makes a mad dash to slap together a kit for comparison purposes! It's incomplete, lacks paint and decals, but at least you can see the proportions, and the articulation it's capable of... With the right stand, it'll pull off some dynamic flight poses as well. Oh, that's an extremely unflattering angle (and pose) for the Yamato toy. Here's a more objective comparison: Some of us make major sacrifices for our Moscato addiction. 🤫 As you can see, the Hasegawa lacks considerable surface detailing relative to the Moscato kit; it's going to take some substantial chipping and weathering to bring the movie Q-Rau up to the standards of its TV counterpart.

    I'm not finished yet, guys! I still have the interior to detail, and the figure needs to be painted, too... In fact, I've added swivels at the elbows, alternate hands and... legs. 🤓 I'm not too keen on the pose, though. 🤔

    It may seem oxymoronic, but this figure manages to be both overly-simplistic and overly-complicated simultaneously. 🤨 The Fiero's definitely nice... ...but not exactly worth the price of admission, you know? Still, the rotating hood panel and pop-up headlights are a nice touch. 😋 And I suppose he looks the part, for what it's worth. I hope XTB comes through with a replacement.
