Now that is just frickin awesome! Best Lego build I have ever seen.

Normally, I am very forgiving in toys but that is just not going to cut it for me. Like the others, I am suprised how little actual transforming there is. It is really a kit or constructor set. It would be more forgiving if it looked good in fighter or battroid but it doesn't. I don't care about the price at this point. This makes me sad after getting to like the VF-0 from watching wm_cheng build the Hasegawa kit.

Wow, customs are definitely on a higher level on average than in the past. Love the paint scheme and color tones. Awesome job.

Nice pics. I wonder how much that thing is going to cost.

Well detailed battroid figures would be pretty cool.

Awesome job, Hanzo! That looks right on. The cool thing is I bet those fastpacks would still look good on other 1/48's. I also love the colors you chose for the armaments.

The Koenig looks promising even though it is hard to see with the dark paint job. I'm not sure if I like the brown but I will get over it. I'm happy about the size. It's big but not huge. I don't really want anything bigger than the 1/48's and don't want to pay a fortune.

Thanks for the pics, Monkey-N.

I don't think the final VF-0S is going to be any different from that prototype. It seems like we would of seen an updated version by now if they were still working on it. I just don't know what Yamato is thinking because few, if any, are very impressed with it.

The BGC figures look promising. It would be awesome to see a whole lineup of poseable figures with the bikes.

Yeah, there are services out there to recover lost data from just about any situation. We have used these at work at least a few times. I believe it gets expensive but a small price if the data is extremely valuable.

Otherwise, if you downloaded it before, you can probably download it again.

I would say it would be impossible to match paint and gloss. You would have to paint the entire wing section and use a sticker for the skull. That wouldn't look that great, either.

I know the 1/48's are very expensive, but they are still mass-produced toys and not hand painted models. When you zoom in to each part, you will see imperfections but from a distance, it looks fine.

GOOD GOD, WATCH THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG

I surrender! Unbelievable. It looks like it will live up to the hype.

I highly recommend Full Metal Alchemist to anyone who has not seen it. It would be somewhere in my top 5 anime series list. It would suck if the fansubs stopped.

Real nice. You got the skillz.

I would say the odds are very, very small. If it does become a reality, it will not be any time soon. Yamato still has to do the Mac0 valks and the new Mac+ valks as well as the other stuff they announced.

Incredible - absolutely incredible! I love those final pics. You do such a good job at getting the cool angles and nice clean backgrounds.

If not his own section, at least make this thread a sticky.

Like I need one more reason why never go to Iraq.

Man, those look like customs. That would suck if someone got them thinking that they are the real deal exclusives.

I got yer custom right here...

LMAO! - brilliant!

MW seriously needs its own gallery for wm_cheng's work. I want to see tons of pics of this beauty when it is done.

Issues indeed. It's a shame that all that affected you so much, arc. A lot of people I know have had some f'ed up childhoods. I guess that is one of the reasons I get a little worked up when people start talking bad about kids. If more kids had better upbringings, we wouldn't have so much trouble today.

Having no kids is the safer (and cheaper) way to protect your stuff but you miss out on a lot of fun as well. I look forward to introducing Macross to my kids and other cool anime. It will also be fun to see their eyes light up when I get them valkyries or other cool toys. Plus, it will be a great excuse to buy more toys!

Have you seen this one.

LMAO!!

... I find it somewhat ironic when those that collect toys hate children.

Why is that ironic?

Yamatos are hardly kids toys, and now due to their age the Takas are too brittle for kits to hold.

Yeah, they are no Playskools but they are still toys. There is no other purpose for these things other than play and joy. They are also from a cartoon that most of us watched as a kid. We would all wet out underoo's if we had a 1/48 as a kid. For me, one of the main reasons I collect toys is because of the kid inside me. If I ever get to old and mature for having fun with toys, then that will be a sad day.

As far as liking kids, it has nothing to do with who you hang out with. You don't go out on the town or hit the bars with a bunch of 3 year olds. I understand that some people don't want to give up a lifestyle/career to have kids but always found it interesting when mature adults 'hate' kids. There just seems to be something wrong with that but don't know how to explain it.

Tremendous as always! I just love those finishing touches that really tie it all together.

What a nice topic this turned into. I find it somewhat ironic when those that collect toys hate children.

I couldn't find any Robotech toys in the 80's. The only thing I found was a Jetfire and those Revell Robotech kits. I guess I wasn't looking in the right places or something. I would of gone nuts if I found a Gakken Alpha. Oh well, I have them now so no big deal.
