That's what I'm doing. I figure the valks themselves will be easier to acquire in the future (regardless of if they're re-released) than the armor and super packs.

I felt no caption was needed.

Bandai's Star Trek kits are actually pre-painted, entirely. Only ones I've seen.

Preceding two ME1 posts spoiler-tagged for Omegablue's sake since it seems he'll soon be starting the series.
-
My argument was that the sculpt isn't improved compared to a Trendmasters or even Masterpiece Voltron. With THAT big a scale to work with, I'd have expected something pretty darn amazing/screen-accurate. Not something which can't even fold the legs up all the way and still doesn't look that good in lion mode.
-
I just realized that the overhead CAD drawing in battroid mode makes it look like they forget a major step in the transformation---that the rear panels between the wings and fuselage fold down 90 degrees. (yellow in Mr March's pic): http://macross2.net/...lorcode-vf4.gif PS----that blog also says 280mm tall in battroid mode, which is 11 inches. (though is that top of the head, top of the shoulders, or top of the tail fins? The VF-4's kinda weird in battroid mode).
-
I had no idea it was that much larger than the "standard" Voltron(s). That makes it even more sad that they couldn't improve the sculpt/leg articulation/transformation.
-
I thought ep 4 was by far the worst in the series, mainly because Banagher went way more "I have to understand humanity/emotions" than before, and more than even most other Gundam/anime pilots. Was all good up till then. Ending battle was awesome, but that's all because it was OTHER people doing the fighting.
-
Repainting the legs won't make them fold up any better in limb mode.

Character Art Appreciation Thread III
David Hingtgen replied to Vepariga's topic in Movies and TV Series
Looks more like Asuka than Sheryl, IMHO. -
Wish they'd ship them over en-masse to the US. I still need a 25F (but not for twice what it'd have cost to get from HLJ)
-
Exactly---they can't say "no VW's visible at all in any footage"---but they can definitely say "no making toys of our design". Think how many movies show an airplane taking off----yet aren't licensed by Boeing...

All Things Video Games Thread: II
David Hingtgen replied to Wanzerfan's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics

Possibly stupid question, but it keeps bugging me: What is Jehuty Anubis, or Jehuty ver. Anubis etc? I've played both games and seen most all the anime. There's Jehuty, and there's Anubis, but they're 2 very different frames. But 90% of the merchandise lately seems to be "Jehuty Anubis"----why/what?
-
Yoshinol.

Did we ever really get a look at Trypticon in station mode? (external/overall) I wonder if the transformation is at all feasible/plausible. (heh, he actually seems smaller in bot mode, which is kinda rare for a TF)
-
I've been playing just the opening 5 mins of the demo, to try out various "tweaks" to my Shepard(s). They changed the hair colors---as in, even if you directly import/copy, the color may be very different. All the reds are much redder/brighter now, really messes with my paragon Shep's look. Eye colors are different too, IMHO. Blues are still blue, etc, but just about every option looks different than it used to. (this happened in ME1 to ME2 as well, but to a lesser degree) So I'm spending time now to figure out how I want things, rather than on launch day when I'd rather be actually playing. Also---Kotobukiya Bishoujo Fem-Shep! http://www.bigbadtoy...ail&picture=out Unlike their Liara statue, it'll be hard to argue that the face is wrong...

Forget Fort Max, where's Trypticon?
-
Does it light-up uninstalled? As in, does everything work fine right up until "that last step of sealing it inside" or has it never lit up in the first place?
-
20 ish hours for a good run in ME1. Good as in, doing most things, but not everything. ME2 can vary a lot depending on if you go for upgrades and loyalty missions, but it is definitely longer. But ME1 has MUCH better plot IMHO, and actually sets the stage for ME3 far more than ME2 did. Plot-wise, ME2 is darn-near a side-story IMHO. It's the collectors, not the reapers.

F-22, doing, well, F-22 stuff: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ee3_1329082051

What is the color of the engine covers of the 1/48 Angel Birds VF-1A
David Hingtgen replied to rdenham's topic in Toys
Googling pics, it looks like they're the same shade of grey as the engine nozzles. So go see what matches. -
And I just got done painting all the missing bits etc on my green -27....

That was my thought---last ditch effort to take down as many people with him as he could----thus, they immediately sliced the arms off to prevent that scenario.
