It looks like it got a reduction in chest size compared to the concept sketch. I think it was for the better. These bishoujo statues aren't my thing, but Koto seems to do a bang up job on them. I'm still contemplating starting the series over from ME1 to do the exact opposite of what my current Shep has done just to get the most of ME3...

Just put in my order for the Amazon excludive Unicron. Finally, I got me a Uni!

1/72 Yamato. Friggin A. I'm trying to get into R/C aviation after I was given a beginner plane as a gift, but I don't have the nerve just yet to fly this thing. After witnessing some horrendous (and hilarious) crashes by all sorts of crafts built by my friends, I'm racking up hours on a sim before the maiden flight.

Oh, Riding Bean is a given! As is Patlabor, Lodoss War, and other great 80's shows.

The best decade for anime imho. I'm currently catching up with Akai Koudan Zillion. I also found Oulanders again, but this time I didn't have to fire ye olde VCR to watch it. If you wanna go waaay back, check out the Legend of Sirius.

PLUM brand 1/35 AS-5E3 "LEYNOS" (PLAYER TYPE)
Valkyrie Hunter D replied to Shaorin's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Cybernator was a fun game, gotta love that beam gun. Check it out, PLUM is releasing the earth type Leynos later this year: Earth Leynos. It looks like it might be pricier than the first Leynos kit, but dammit this will be mine too! -
PLUM brand 1/35 AS-5E3 "LEYNOS" (PLAYER TYPE)
Valkyrie Hunter D replied to Shaorin's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Mmmmm,I loves me my Leynos. I bought one kit as soon as it hit the market, but still have no time to build it. It looks like PLUM likes doing videogame mecha, since they also made the Silverhawk kit from Darius Burst. When I do find some time, I hope to give my Leynos an olive drab theme. Good luck on your build! -
I got a hunch that In any case, it's the best portrayal of Cap on film, and my only gripe is that it could've used more action.

Bubblegum Crisis Toys
Valkyrie Hunter D replied to the_foul_fowl's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
For the anime, probably. But who knows, if Robocop can get a Figma... Is the live action BGC movie still in the works? If so, maybe some more figures can be expected.- 881 replies

Blow me down, I actually found a Warpath and a Scourge-at retail! I pretty much gave up on finding these guys, but they were the last ones of their kind at a Target I just happened to shop in while doing errands. Maybe I'll try my luck with a Marshall's in hopes of finding the G1 legends.

I remember seeing a colored sample of something very similar to that a long time ago - very blocky. I can't recall what TF site it was on, but last I heard, the designers want to eventually make a larger production run for it.

Yup, and people are also going straight to customer service to return it once they snag the targetmaster for the Takara version they already own. Ironhide and Ratchet look fantastic. I'm just surprised that it looks like an original sculpt...from iGear!

Talk about niche, it looks an nice piece though. +1 on Madox-that mech needs some serious toy representation!

Officially Schwarzenegger

In Arnie's defense, ever taken a good look at Maria Shriver? -
DOTM toys everywhere. Nothing Classics/Generations related in sight. I picked up Powerglide and Skyhammer; and with that I'm done with the DOTM line. Although I am curious to see how Mirage will turn out.
-
After all this time, it still uses different pieces for the the truck grill and bot mode's "abs". And so far, I see nothing that makes me want to spend $250 on it.
-
I'm all in for a Shinden TF, but the combined form still doesn't entice me. And the way that Mustang transforms reminds me of that A6M Zero Go-Bot. The Devastator the same guys are making looks astounding; it's coming together real nicely. I only question its stability as those are some large chunks of plastic hanging from the joints.
-
I never thought I'd have to consider paying almost $300 for a TF.

Thanks for the kind words gents, I was pleased with the way Jazz turned out as well. Right now the new target of my OCD is turning Heavytread into Brawl as the left lower leg of Fanproject's Bruticus. A couple of people at TFW2005 have done it and I really liked the way it looked. I just don't like how Brawl isn't a main battle tank, and the sculpt for that tank limb is just lame in bot mode. Problem is that I only have one Heavytread, and if I mess up, he's not exactly easy to find. No Wheeljack or Thundercracker over here. It looks like the regular spots are getting ready for DOTM toys.
-
Just wanted to show the spoiler mod I've finished for Jazz. Through the use of earth magnets and styrene, he's now a parts-former. Modeled after some photos of the Porsche 935 racer, I also added some minor details like markings for rear windows. It was a messy affair, but things turned for the better I think: I thought about doing something about the headlights like filling it in and doing some etching, but it would be too much. Now I'm just trying to think of a way to make his chest assembly to be a lot less floppy in bot mode.

Bludgeon's been Drift's sparring partner on my shelf for a long time now, and while Bludgeon may have been part of the ROTF line, I thought he looked good hanging out with the Classics TFs. Articulation is pretty good with him; I especially like how he can grasp the sword with both hands. And I think I may be one of the few who prefer his colors as opposed to Banzaitron's. Shapeways also has some alternate head kits for him, but I don't have any problems with the default head. My only complaint with Bludgeon is that his gray plastic weapons aren't as rigid as I'd like. There's something sad about a tank with a limp machine gun.
-
Yup, definitely sucks. No Windcharger and possibly the G1 Legends. I'm hoping at least the wave with Warpath will still hit the stores.

Jeebus, and I thought the Stampede Valkyrie was outrageous: Takara's Jetwing Prime. It uses Buster Prime as a base. This thing will be ginormous.
