Shmitty

Shmitty, great work, just a FYI, the grey part in the front of the kneeguard (not the knobs, below them) for the RX-79[G] which the MG kit doesn't cover with armour is actually meant to be white too. Since you've gone to all the trouble of painting it, you may as well as fix that up too.

Actually, the parts i think you're referring to were lighter grey to begin with, following what it looked like on the box. But, I didn't like how it looked so I changed it to the grey it is now, I think it looks better. Can't really explain it, but it feels more mechanical with the "Internal" color on the outside like that. Thanks for the input though!

Well done, I didn't know the OYW version had individual fingers. For that, I will have to get it. BTW, I really like the blue you used on the torso, what is its name?

Although in case they don't, I will personally pollute their offices by throwing Matchbox Veritechs through the windows, and emailing them pictures of Speedo Max until they can take no more.  Hell, that might make them get into gear and materialise the 1/60 Monster, the FP 19 and a GOOD VF-0S.

Do it anyway, we need a FP YF-19.

This is the first of two MG RX-79[G] Gundams that I have just recently built (RetCon or not, the RX-79 is one hell of a suit). They are my first attempt at weathering. Just thought I'd share some pictures. Tell me what you think! (figured this place was better than starting a new thread.)

(This was taken with a cellphone, sorry for the piss-poor quality)

And here's a preview of the second one (pre-weathering):

I'll be messing around with it online for a good portion of the night. If anybody wants to join in, look for the "Macross World" server. If I decide to password it, the password will be "valkyrie."

I can't seem to find it, do you have the IP?

I started playing the demo, and all I can say is: "holy crap!" First of all, its effing gorgeous. Screenshots just don't do it justice. And the commander and squad lead actions are really cool and inventive. When you get "killed" the first two or three times (I can't remember), you can call a medic and they'll fix you up and get you back to fighting, unless you like fall off a cliff or something. I'd say more, but now I'm going to go play it again.

Edit, there are actually times where you're jsut seriously injured, and when you're killed. That's what decides if you can get back to fighting or not.

I managed to start a download, I'll see if i can't get my friend to host the file on his site.

When it finishes...

P.S. my tag is Yushiro, generally for every game I play online.

I refreshed the gamespot link page and the link to Download.com was gone. I guess one of theirs couldn't handle the traffic or something.

All the servers are hell of busy, so it'll probably take a while to get into one for a download.

SpacePirateNeko beat me to it.

$249.99!!!!!!!

Thats ludicrisly expensive. How big is it going to be that they "justify" that price. I remember the tread being a good deal bigger than the legioss, but jebus, the 1/55 legioss is hell of tiny. Since the tread is about twice as big, iirc, then it should be about as big as a 1/48 battroid, which is awesome but for 250 wingwangs, that's crazy.

Nah, it's just broke, the leg is all he loses.

I would jump at the chance, this is looking so great. The physics and the gameplay all seem to be going together so well. Can't wait for the 21st.

Frankly unless they figure out how to reset the whole ZOE universe there really isn't much story-wise left to tell. Oh I suppose they could tell the story from the Earths viewpoint or even pull a Gundam.

This is easily the worst part about wanting another sequel. I mean, at the end of ZOE2 Jehuty is so powerful that it's practically invincible. They either have to tone Jehuty down (which would suck continuity wise), or have you run a different Frame (which wouldn't suck as bad as watering down Jehuty, but come on, topping Jehuty's design would be tough). Though, if Shinkawa can make another equally (or perhaps more) awesome looking Frame, there probably won't be a problem.

Kojima said that if enough interest was shown, that another sequel would be made.

From Guntoa :

Zeonography update

Pics shown at Tsukurikake Mokei Dojo confirm that the Zeonography Gouf Custom does indeed turn into an Efreet and not any kind of Gouf Flight-Type despite previous reports.

Cool! If they're making an Efreet, perhaps we'll get some BD units...

I wish I hadn't ignored this thread. Accidentally caught an episode last night on Cartoon Network (there was some sort of ogre in it, and a one-handed guy). Now it's on my ReplayTV schedule.

Don't worry that was only the second episode, all you missed was Mugen and Jin joining up with Fuu. Also, mugen did happen to cut that one guys hand off in the first ep.

Wow, that is some well written stuff. Really enjoyed it, thanks for the find.

Hubbub.

Buggy as it was, it was hell of fun; looking forward to the sequel.

As much fun as EiS is, I can't say that I've started playing it at 11:00pm and quit playing (simply because both I and my friend were passing out) around 8:00am, like I have with Fed v.s. Zeke. I can't freakin wait for Gundam v.s. Zeta.

I have the Mk-II Titans EMSiA, and it's way more poseable and bendy (softer material) than the old one that's out. The weathering and paneling is way beyond the simple paint jobs on the old MSiA as well; especially the new SEED destiny ones with no panel lining. Also the size, its about the same size as a regular MSiA; actually smaller than some. Hope this helps!

Woah, thats really cool. Congrats!

Does anyone have a link to a higher-res version of the trailer?

$299 is bare bones version.  $399 gets you the HD (with Halo2?), backwards compatability, and something else I'm forgetting...

You have to pay an additional $100 to get backwards compatibility? That's one of the most lame things I've heard so far regarding these next gen consoles.

It's M$, honestly, did you expect better from them?
