Make it big. Make it strong. Make it metal. Engineer it. In my mind, a toy can never look as good as a model. Just the seams are enough distraction. Of course, I'm not too thrilled about the transformation aspect of many designs, but that's a whole 'nother can of worms.

If you're good, you can make a beautifully made model as tough and fun as a toy.

I can't wait to see the expression on your face when you're forced to eat your words. Those who decided not to have an integrated gun in the F-35 has either failed the few history classes they had to take, or simply chose to not take them at all.

Too easy, huh? It was in the third Gundam Movie, Encounter in Space. Your turn, yellowlightman.

Indeed. What animation are these lyrics from: "...Yes, my sweet, Yes my sweetest I wanna get back where you were..."?

Not to say EVERY Fb version sucks ass. The G-System GP01Fb+ is pretty badass. However, lacking the 500+ dollars to own a big chunk of resin, I made my own HGUC conversion: http://www.uweb.ucsb.edu/~stamen0083/progs/030812/ And the sole details for the feet: http://www.uweb.ucsb.edu/~stamen0083/progs...SoleDetails.jpg Now all I need is a little bit of time to finish it, make the molds for the duplicate parts, and build!

Paint balls.

It says: "Version 1: Showing two EVA's in huge Hangar chamber. One is being lowered into bath chamber for organic component repair. EVA weapons and wings are on racks situated around the chamber. Huge mobile mechanical arms manoeuvre wings and weapons to be fitted onto EVA's."

Already!? The invasion begins! Hmm... What does this mean for my Astray?

You make this US military product sound like it's a Microsoft operating system.

The Comanche is much, much better.

I hate the Fb. Stupid clown feet and nipple thrusters?? I would have hated the GP01 as well if Katoki didn't do Kawamori a favor and redesign that thing. Druna Skass: Ahh... V Gundam designs. I don't do V Gundam. I would have chewed you out if you listed the Albion as a Katoki design :-P You're OK.

I was hoping they'd sacrifice the Osprey for the Comanche. I can't believe they're sacrificing the Comanche for the Osprey.

I'll only assume that you know that Katoki does much, much more than just Gundam. With things like Virtual On and Super Robot Wars, he's given free reigns to design as he wishes. The Bandai folks love ugly retro, so he's not allowed to do much there. Thank goodness that Bandai let slip the MG GP01 in '97. I'd kill the fools who wanted the GP01 to look like that PG fiasco. What capital ships? I'm not aware of any Katoki ship designs.

They already do. Everytime you handle a penny, the government gets hold of your information. Why do you think they keep them in circulation?

If you just want to let people know who did the sketch, then just put credits in the picture. It really irks me when people use the word "Copyright" on a piece of work he or she has done without knowing what it really is all about. It's a mistake at best. At worst, it's perjury by saying you have copyrights to something you don't really have. It's quite a stretch, I know, but I love big fancy words. And by the way, please don't overreact to stuff. It makes you a drama queen, and believe me, it's not as cool as it sounds.

There's a 0.3mm size too. I recommend Sakura's Pigma Micron pens. The nibs are really fine, and it's an ink pen, so you get a solid black line instead of a graphite gray.

No, I'm not talking about the conversion set for the PG Zaku. I stand corrected. I must have seen the prototype shot of the GS Gouf and its gorgeous line, and told myself that it must have been the Gouf Custom I saw, because the regular Gouf is ugly beyond hideous. I would love to see someone put the Flight Type designation on a GS Gouf, along with the proper design elements ;-)

Many people on this board provide decal printing service. At least Anasazi makes custom decals.

Decal setting solution is for water based decals. There are no such solutions for stickers because, well, they suck. If they're vinyl stickers (or some form of plastic), you can use a blunt object (the back of your fingernail should work) to press the edge of the sticker down. Your best bet in the end is to practice on decals and lay those down.

I don't do toys, so I don't know this well, but isn't there already a Gouf Custom HY2M? I know I saw a prototype shot of it somewhere.

Bah. I don't understand Bandai's fascination with retro ugliness. I've said it for the Arch-Enemy Rx-78-2, and I'll say it again: No way in hell are those things ever coming anywhere near my room. And this, folks, comes from a fan of the Rx-78-2.

Yay. Another Megaman Zero game. I just wish they dispense with the stupid chitchat they have in the game, or at least provide a way to skip them. Megaman Zero is at least challenging... The rest of the X series has been way too easy... I wonder if the duck introduced in X5 will make a come back? I believe that was the single greatest innovation the franchise has had since the slide in Megaman 3. Megaman Battle Network... What a chore.

She is so sexy...

It looks like you might be crap out of luck if you have never modded anything in your life, but if you have used hand tools, you will be able to get through this. Drill and pin. It looks like that part leaves just about enough room for a pin. Drill and pin it, then use superglue to join the pieces. Just make sure they match. If you have a hobby shop nearby, you can also buy some aluminum sheet, which you can cut and shape into that part. All you have to do is drill holes for the screw to go into.
