Capt Hungry

Just beautiful thus far WM!! I look forward to the finished product. Thanks again for taking the time to do another write up for us drooling fanboys!

That is a fantastic list!

Yeah, he did come up with Jar Jar.................

I just uncoverd two of the 1/100th kits that I built back in the 80's. I also still two unbuilt Orbots. Still have the metal landing gear parts too. It's amazing that they've survived so many moves!

That is pretty cool. I remember before CPU's passed the 1 Ghz mark, that there was a company that used a refrigeration unit to cool the chip enough to OC it to 1Ghz. Think that they used a P3 too. It's amazing how much the computing industry has taken notice of overclocking/modding PC's now.

One of the opposing solos takes off by retracting the landing gear as he attains enough airspeed to become airborne. He's still only about 6 ft over the runway at that point, but he hasn't completely pulled back on the stick. Once he reaches the end of the runway, he pulls back sharply to climb vertically. It's pretty cool.

VF-X2's intro? No, actually I found it last night among all the Macross related stuff I have backed up. It's another Takaken movie. I'll see if I can find a link.

There was another movie like short that I ran across in 2000 (I think), found it here as a matter of fact. It was all CG too, but took place in the atmosphere. There is an impressive shot of a VF-1A, I think, that transforms as it falls through the air and fires it's gunpod as it falls to take down some missiles. If anyone has that, post it up for the benefit of the newer members. I know I have it on a disk and I'd be happy to see about uploading it to an iMacross server.

Fantastic work!

That's a rather dramatic pic. Wow.

Dare, dare!! Nice work Grayson!

VF-1J Edit in: Didn't realize this had already been noted............. Mods - feel free to delete this thread.

Shawn was in fact in charge of the book sale. Seiichi in Japan kept coming across all these mint books. I managed to score some nice stuff. Rdenham's avatar............um..............wow. Even if they are fake...........

Fantastic looking model! I have seen a model of the USS Forrestal that is nearly that big. Can you imagine the Prometheus in that scale????? W00+!!!!!

Didn't realize that the boards went down........... Lessee - lot's of other places to go when MW is down. Groundplan.com for Painkeep Arena Granarymusic.com for Bob Mould Anandtech, Sharkeyextreme to keep up with PC info Bluesnews for the links of the day But it's always nice to come back home.

Very, very nice! I hope to have my own little area at some point in the future like that. Great looking models and you have a model of the G-1 from Gatchaman! Looks like an old Entex(?) model? What is the name of the company that made that model? I know they made a Phoenix that looked really cool. Oh. I'm guessing that you're a Star Wars fan?

Cool. I was giving serious consideration to purchasing the current box set. Wait, now, I will.

Way cool!!! BGC lives!!!

I ran across an article in Autoweek, that had some good pics of Lady Penelope's car. There is a trailer available too. Autoweek's Road Test of Lady Penelope's car Some Thunderbirds movie info Should be an interesting movie..........and hopefully it won't suck too much.

Nice work Andy!

Fantastic work!

Sealab rocks!!! A little parody is always a good thing.

I too, read both #10 and 11 this weekend. I agree with the anticlimatic feel of #11. Alas, I was hoping for more but I kind of understood what was going on.........sorta. Still, I am going to have to re-read the whole series now that I have them all. Shirow may have gone way off on a tangent, but the artwork is still cool.

Here are mine in no particular order: Cowboy Bebop Gunbuster Macross Macross Plus Macross Zero Bubblegum Crisis (80's OVA) Dominion Tank Police GITS: SAC Ghost in the Shell Battle of the Planets (still have yet to see the original) Madox 01: Metal Skin Panic (the first true Japanimation I ever saw) There is still so much that I have not seen. Still not sure how I feel about Akira........animation was cool, but it was a little weird. But then again, so was Urotsukidoji.............. I'd have included Speed Racer but the last time I rented an episode it just wasn't the same as I remember. It was cool when I was under age 10, but now I see it for the cheese that it is.

WOW! You guys are doing some amazing stuf here! I like to keep checking in on this thread occasionally. It seems like all of you are getting better and better at this stuff. Please keep up the good work!
