  1. incredible! might be a fun alternative to airsoft which is completely banned in my country. I bet the cops and customs here would still bitch about even mildly realistic looking toy guns though. I don`t know anything about Nerf but I suspect that M4 is mostly customed. What base did you use for it and do you have an online resource for modding?

    Check out OZnerf. They have quite the source of nerf stuff and mods.

    The M4 looking nerf is modded with airsoft parts. The Nerf gun is called the Recon.

    Here is a modified Clear nerf Recon (mostly stock) with my clear mav-titan rocket launcher (it is titan guts in maverick shell) modified to mount like a M203 grenade launcher.

  2. Please tell me the Eotech and MBUS on that thing are real. Nothing would make my day quite like knowing that you've got $600~$700 worth of tacticool accessories on your $40 Nerf gun.

    Actually, if the aimpoint and surefire are real that's like a grand right there... :wacko:

    The Eotech is real. off of my Kriss Super V (Real Steel) The MBUS are PTS aka airsoft versions. As well as the Aimpoint. From my airsoft guns.

    Surefires are real. That is another $700 haha

  3. Ah nerf. I am the Otakon's Nerf Doctor.

    While there is an entire world of serious modifications and facrications of nerf weapons. I just mod mine a bit.

    Nerf raider is hands down the best all around indoor nerf gun. I have even used it successfully outdoors against 100ft ranged air guns. The Raider has the potential to be more powerful than any of the reverse plunger designs such as the Alphatrooper and Lonstrike.

    I used a spring from a discontinued gun. Im getting about 40-50 feet flat with my raider. If I angle I get more range. The strength with the raider is the 35 rd drum mag. with the increased range and rapid fire than say the alpha trooper, I can rush while barraging my enemy with more darts. Most high powered weapons are slow in reloading. The raider may not have quite the long reach but it can rain a constant stream of darts and still have plenty left over. Plus I have a dump pouch with two more drums waiting to be reloaded into the raider.

    I have recently replaced my longstrike internals with the guts of the Buzzbee Missile Blast. Now it is a sniper rifle and getting 60-70 feet.

    Here are a few pics of my Nerf.

    My Red Recon with all factory accessories

    Raider and M4 Recon.

    Oh yeah i found this recently at TRU. It is a NV scope that can by mounted to a Nerf gun. The mount is not quite a tight fit for Nerf so I used gaffer tape the widen the rails and make the scope fit more snugly.

  4. :wacko: I don't know how big is the ingram, but does those match with 1/48 scale valks?

    No since this is 1/24. The pilot is 2x bigger than a 1/48 macross pilot.

    However if you are asking about the physical size of the toy. I dont have a 1/48 that i can take pictures of at the moment. all i have is Minmei guard thunderhammer and weathered VF-1S. My black 1S is in storage.

    But here it is next to a 1/55

    The closest toy in physical size is Masterpiece Prime

  5. I had these gashapon weapons lying around. Really cool gimmicks. they shoot plastic bullets. Im sure 1/6 scale weapons might work, but what fun would that be? these shoot!!!

    These are made by Yujin.

    M4 with shells that extract after firing and cycling the weapon

    And possibly one of the best upgrades. a Nintendo Wii for my Ingram

  6. I finally got my copy from Kiririth. thanks Bee!!! I won the silent auction at MWCON. I figured I would bid $80. It would be the same as if I bought it, but the money goes to MWCon funds. Win win.

    So what cell did you guys get in your copy? Where can I get a text script fan sub? So I can know what is going on?

    Here is mine. Alto.

  7. Nick is too lazy to go to the 2nd page to see the existing thread already so of course he has to make his own... haha... nice pics and creative use of MW Con tshirt!

    EXO, you should advertise that next time you sell a shirt "MW Con tshirt also doubles as a backdrop for your photos!!!"

    Lazy? I say senile haha. well maybe lazy. yeah lets go with lazy. haha

  8. Ok so I havent been active lately but got the chance to go to MWCon10 yesterday. Picked up my SD infinity Alto VF25.

    Fantastic work. Some parts seem scary cause they are so thin but as long as you be aware of where you apply pressure and dont force things, you should be fine.

    The feet are diecast not necessary but a nice touch.

    Only gripe is the lack of a SD Alto. There is room for one but they didnt put one inside. Perhaps someone ahem *EXO* could sculpt one hehe. Oh also the3 lack of landing gears. But makes up by including a display stand.

    The SD Alto comes with two heads, Also not necessary but nice to have. One big head and one about 25% smaller. You use the smaller one to transform the Valk into gerwalk and fighter. the nice thing is the small head is just like the full sized head, all the same detail, it is just smaller to fit when transformed.

    Please excuse the crap pictures. Im in a hotel in Salt Lake city and have limited resources for lighting. I had to use a MWCON shirt as the black backdrop haha

  9. Wow you guys are awesome. So glad you had a great time. I missed it unfortunately. Maybe next year :)

    Got a quick question....what was Tommy Yune doing there? I mean, doesn't work for Harmony Gold? Weren't you guys supposed to be beefing with him?

    Actually he volunteered and had a workshop on using photoshop. I missed it cause I had to head to SLC but I think he was showing how he creates artwork for HG/RT using Photoshop.

    Beefing?

    Tommy is a great guy. Any RT/MW issues are all under the water.

  10. I have both pairs of cyclones by Megahouse/Toynami and the CM's. Ley/Rand and Stick/Scott cyclones.

    Megahouse Stick

    Megahouse Ley

    CM's Stick

    CM's Ley

    All 4 MIB. Only transformed once and put back in the box.

    Pictures upon request.

    Looking to sell as a lot. $170 shipped within the USA for all 4.

    email me if interested.

  11. I just heard the news from Tommy Yune. How terrible for his family and friends. One small consolation is that they know the cause of death. It is extremely frustrating when LAPD spends 6 months and then says "whoops we dont know how he died"

    I too remember watching robotech as a kid. I dont have clear memories of the plot or story. But the robots, oh man the robots were awesome. I loved the toys. albeit I never got to have them. Robotech was that carrot that dangled in front of me. I dont know how long it would have taken for me to discover macross without robotech in the back of my mind. I knew of the toys as a kid., I remember I discovered MW around 2000/2001. After buying a joke machine, trying to recapture my childhood. it all snowballed from there.

    I now better understand Macek's necessary evil, and I agree that it changed people. myself included, for the better.
