  1. Yeah, it's pretty clear the VF-19 mold wasn't designed with the sound booster in mind at all. They are 2 completely separate ideas, with "a completely made-up ginormous bracket that doesn't conform to either half" smooshing the two in tight formation. (I won't even say they're connected, they're just "quite close, and moving in sync")
  2. That Roy looks really WHITE---is it a TV Roy with DYRL packs?
  3. I've been thinking about it too, but I just can't bring myself to buy one "so close, yet so far, to doing TV colors". Just, way too much black on the upper half. Bandai constantly releases "EW colors", then makes proper TV colors only P-Bandai, and only HG not MG. Then 3P comes along and does "almost" TV colors. My kingdom for a nice big TV-colored Tallgeese. Besides my ancient Tallgeese 3 kit built as TG 1 and repainted... *if they'd made it with too much white, it'd be easy to paint black. But the opposite is way too much effort, especially if you want it to look good and not interfere with joints etc---primer, layers, etc.
  4. Scavanger? They lost the rights to Scavenger? He's more angry now? Like hangry, but with scavenging...
  5. Possibly, but with how apparently random it is, and how many BIOS tweaks/quirks this PC has had over the years, I'm loathe to try to alter anything, when I can simply "not buy the one that might have issues".
  6. Seems the SN850X has some compatbility issues with my mobo, so will probably go with a Samsung SSD again. Just haven't decided exactly which one.
  7. That is the main reason I'm considering picking this up---it's a VERY nice red. My previous fave red for her is the 1/48 Yamato. (the second-biggest reason is that I'm suspecting Bandai will never do M&M---they're already ridiculously overdue with not even a hint of them coming---it would be very much par for the course to make a 1J head, and then ONLY use it for Hikaru)
  8. Definitely overdue for a new OS SSD. I'm looking for the most reliable, longest-lasting one I think. Performance is secondary (all SSD's are fast). Probably just 1TB. (If I go for 2, I'd probably just make that my new storage one, and convert my current 1TB storage into my OS one). On that note---I really don't feel like reinstalling EVERYTHING. Do cloning programs etc really work? As in, Windows won't freak out, or python paths etc. It's truly a clone, and everything should work? ::edit:: I've always had Samsung ones in my PCs, but am open to trying others.
  9. Yeah, but Arcee already has the MAXL's coloring, (and curvature), Minerva has neither.
  10. SMS is higher priority, due to so many -25's and -29's out there----but I would be interested in a Galaxy logo, for the -27:
  11. Proper on-screen-accurate dull olive green would be nice for a change...
  12. OMG, now that you mention it and I look again---that explains everything and it works so much better. It's not a G1 Prime+VF-19 hybrid, it's 2001 RiD Prime (Fire Convoy) as a VF-19... I just might buy it now... (I LOVE the RiD toys---but am quite disappointed in the new Omega Prime---it's like, why bother making a new toy from scratch, just to make it 99% identical to the old one? It solves none of the major issues, it basically doubles down on them). And this should be far cheaper than "new Omega Prime".
  13. Am I the only one who'd like to see an Arcee Mylene MAXL?
  14. Yeah---comparing it to the OG seems kinda pointless. The darker grey feet etc are not new compared to the previous release.
  15. It's weird how consistent it is. Gotta be where a sprue-gate for the clear-parts mold is or something.
  16. No, not the stand itself. Just the logo. Not red/blue/yellow/green, but black. A simple black circle with a white skull and bones.
  17. I also vote for a plain black version. No name. Make it work for any VF-1/VF-4/VF-0 etc we see from skull squadron. (plus, black looks cool)
  18. I have never had my VF-4 on a stand before----and it deserves the very best:
  19. Keeping the drop-mechanism, but implementing the swinging-rear-doors aspect of the original, would be very difficult I imagine. Pretty much has to be one or the other. So, if you want rear doors, you also need to redo the entire center section to have either a drive-in rover, or a slide-in cargo pod. At which point we might as well just start from scratch, since the entire mid-section needs to be massively re-worked in that case...
