She was, is and always will be a cutie in my eyes.

That was pretty cool. You have ripping guitar jams, vehicles that combine to make giant robots, tearing the landscape apart to crush little tanks, Robert Mays' disembidied head and pentagrams! How cool is that!

Now I see where F-ZeroOne gets his avatar from.

I do from time to time. Mainly because I'm not only a fan of things that fly, but of military history.

I admit it, I voted for the lightning.

Hehe I'm gonna be laughing about that all day now.

Absolutely wonderful!

I noticed a lot of this kind of stuff during my trip to China last year. I wondered if I could actually make a living as a English proofreader over there.

I worked on this some more tonight..

I'm at a loss for words, even typed ones!

*sigh* shes still a cutie after all these years.

Beautiful work there wongster. I do have one question though, are the tailplanes supposed to be vertical like that?

No idea but I'm interested to hear your review when you get it.

Finally I can vent!

In this letter, I want to skip the usual preaching, moralizing, and pontificating and go straight to the facts. With this letter, I hope to provide some balance to Clash of the Bionoids's one-sided précis. But first, I would like to make the following introductory remark: It has been said that I am fed up to the back teeth with Clash of the Bionoids's deplorable put-downs. I believe that to be true. I also believe that I stand by what I've written before, that we find among narrow and uneducated minds the belief that science is merely a tool invented by the current elite to maintain power. This belief is due to a basic confusion, which can be cleared up simply by stating that for Clash of the Bionoids's recalcitrant plans to succeed, it needs to "dumb down" our society. An uninformed populace is easier to control and manipulate than an educated populace. In the immediate years ahead, schoolchildren will stop being required to learn the meanings of words like "undemonstrativeness" and "intercrystallization". They will be incapable of comprehending that a central fault line runs through each of Clash of the Bionoids's offhand remarks. Specifically, I'm not a longiloquent person. I'd like nothing more than to extend my hand in friendship to Clash of the Bionoids's functionaries and convey my hope that in the days to come we can work together to change the world for the better. Unfortunately, knowing them, they'd rather interfere with a person's work performance, bodily security, physical movement, and privacy rights because that's what Clash of the Bionoids wants. If Clash of the Bionoids's thinking were cerebral rather than glandular, it wouldn't consider it such a good idea to intensify or perpetuate clericalism. Clash of the Bionoids's unstable fibs really raise my blood pressure. Not that I've come to expect any better from Clash of the Bionoids. Should this be discussed in school? You bet. That's the function of education: To teach students how to reinforce what is best in people.

In effect, if you are not smart enough to realize this, then you become the victim of your own ignorance. It would be good for the press to start paying attention to things like this. That said, let me continue. The facts are, succinctly, these: First, this view dangerously underestimates the malicious quality of absenteeism. Second, if it truly wanted to be helpful, Clash of the Bionoids wouldn't purge the land of every non-impetuous person, gene, idea, and influence. The end.

Wow thats a great painting!

Stands with a Fist is retarded. If she knew Baltar was a traitor, she should have used it in the election. How could she not?

Like Adama said, she had no real proof of him being a traitor.

I'm betting there will be a lot more than 12 Cylon models in the future.

Sure I watched Astro Boy, Speed Racer and Starblazers (Yamato) as a kid in the 70s, but it was really Macross/Robotech/Dyrl in '85 that really introduced me to anime. I think there are plenty of other great anime titles like Akira, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Evangelion and so on. However none of them had the influence on my life like Macross had and so, to me, none of them will ever compare to Macross.

I can certainly tell you that a lot of my friends feel the same way.

I'm on the west coast and have already seen it. For some reason SciFi on Charter Cable shows it at 7pm and then again at 10pm (or 10:30pm in tonights case).

I'm with you guys, I have no idea where this series is going but it sure is one hell of a ride.

Looks to be a promising site. I also signed up.

Memmon: that looks realy interesting (and kinda wierd!) what the hell are those? fiber-optic cables?

Nope, those are just silver colored wires found in braid for coaxial cable which is a great source for thin wires by the way. A 2 foot piece of RG6 quad shield coax cable will last you for years.

I do have some even thinner wire, meant for wrapping transformers. I plan on using some of that was well.

No more space in the stash for new kits.

No more room on the shelves for the half-done kits I'm working on. (That F-15E's been 70% done for a half-year now, it currently sits on the floor next to my stereo--some day I'll feel like doing the engines, gear, weapons, and canopy)

No more room under the bed or couch for the "reserve" stash.

So what do I do? Buy the biggest new model I can! It's the American way. (VF-1 for scale)

I know *exactly* what you mean. I have quite an impressive stash, I'll never be able to build them all (mostly WW2 aircraft), so what did I do last week? I brought home a VF-0S kit. I explained to the Mrs. that my local hobby shop (Best One Hobby in Alhambra) will no longer be carrying Hasegawa's Macross series so I needed to get it while I could. She was less than happy about it.

My wife is Chinese and she doesn't know much about Macross related stuff. Its kind of funny though, when I have a picture of a battroid on my monitor she points and exclaims "Oh, Gundam!". I patiently explain "No honey, its not Gundam". I laugh every time.

Thats funny, I just watched DYRL again and I STILL have Shao Pai Long stuck in my head. *beats head against wall*

Decided to start work on Hasegawas Super VF-1A. Its been in my stash long enough. Started out with some creative gizmology behind the seat.

I have some small items you are missing from the model pages, unfortunately I don't have a scanner.

*waves hand*

This is not the Minmei you are looking for.
