Shhhhh Don't give HG any ideas

Hah ! 1/12??? Big Deal. I want to know when this 1/1 Scopedog goes on sale. 1/1 Scopedog

Sorry that I don't have an answer to your question but that model looks great !! Make sure you post some pics when its finished

Its a live-action movie based on an anime........more discussion here Casshern

I highly recommend this place...I ordered stuff on a Saturday and it was delivered a couple days later. Pretty good prices too.

Looks Great !!!!! But why do I keep having visions of Battlestar Galactica?

For someone that always talks about trying to separate herself from the Minmay persona, she sure shows up at a lot of these anime conventions.

In all fairness to HG/Toynami, compared to the original Veritechs released by Matchbox, I guess the Toynami version could be considered a Masterpiece.

I heard about this on the radio today and had to do a little research for myself. http://www.playbill.com/news/article/88513.html

Consider the source....this this the same group (Anti-UN) that flies around in pink aircraft.

Just saw it... the animation was incredible. I got sort of lost story wise. I never thought I would admit this but I almost wish it was dubbed and not subtitled. I became so engrossed w/ the animation that I missed some of the dialogue. I highly recommend it ..... Batou is the man

They've got a pre-order up for the VF-1J Fast Packs w/ November delivery.

LOL !!! I like how they've got the regular price at $300 crossed out w/ a sales price of $275.

You may want to give it another shot, I wasn't very impressed after the 1st episode either but subsequent episodes have been pretty good imo.

That is one toit paint job

LOL .... Now I'm sure they'll get right on it

I saw the trailer before 'Hero' and it looks great, especially since Batou is my favorite character.

LOL. About 15 high school kids got up and left when they saw that the movie was subtitled......and I should have joined them, this movie was terrible.

Its mostly P.R. with Lesnar and the Vikings ..... He has a very slim chance of even making the practice squad. Lesnar article in Minneapolis Star Tribune

HLJ's got both of those models listed as an 'August Restock' but hopefully someone can translate the information from that article.

The Texas Rattlesnake and DDP living together...Now thats a reality show I might actually watch.

I've had lots of success using the guides at this site AfterDawn.com

Here is a scan of the instructions from the main site Kaiyodo 1/72 VF-1S

I've got a 10lb air tank set-up and it works really slick. I fill it up to 125 psi at the gas station and I can get through a Hase VF-1 (base coat, clear coat, clear coat and dull-coat) without having to refill. I prime with the a Tamiya rattle can and spray at 15 psi. The nice thing is its cheap, silent and compatible with a compressor if I choose to upgrade in the future. Its probably not as convenient as a regular air-compressor, but its definately better and cheaper than using cans of compressed air.

I'm really cheap so I bought just a 20lb air tank from Walmart, added a regulator and filter, then fill it up for free at the gas station. It easily gets me through at least 1 Hase VF model (15-20 psi) before I have to refill it.
