  1. just wanted to thank Carlos for helping me out when when one of my cover plates broke.
  2. the speaker fins on the shoulder pauldrons get in the way of the sound booster
  3. yup, I'd definitely be down for a squad if the kits were available in grey
  4. eugimon

    Vf-0 vs SV-51

    not true about GERWALK at all.
  5. I wasn't a big fan of the vf-4 either. In fact, I only begrudgingly bought this toy because... well, because. But I have to say, the toy is so excellent it's made me a fan.
  6. Nissan may not use the infiniti badge in japan, but they use it everywhere else. Lexus is used globally as well, including in japan and has for sometime. Is it really that different from gm rebadging cars or audi and volkswagen sharing platforms? Bugati was a dead brand before volkswagen bought it just for the name. Differentiating across different retail segments or locations is hardly limited to toyota and nissan. Edit: i guess i dont see why buying a dying brand and using that name to get into a market segment is okay but building up a new division to get into a market segment is bad. And audi has spent more time being owned by someone else than being their own company. Why is a dressed up passat okay but a dressed up camry not?
  7. fantastic work! I love the bare aluminum trim
  8. this reminds me of those comic book crossovers where you had to read a dozen different books to get the whole story... but in this case it's a half dozen threads.
  9. I doubt they do it on purpose. My wife works with various metals she sources from all over the world. She constantly complains about the purity of her chinese suppliers and this is for high end manufacturing and R&D applications.
  10. unfortunately, bad diecast happens. Despite being a generally cheap metal, it's still pretty strong, it's doubtful that the guy(gal) putting it together broke it by forcing it. Much more like it was just a bad pour, which happens from time to time.
  11. I'll leave the thread with this then, people who buy multiples of toys are just like people who run puppy mills!!! like that, but with toys.
  12. I was actually referencing something that was said in this thread: I think someone needs to take a BIG step back and calm down.
  13. Don't forget, toy scalping is like killing someone with a gun.
  14. that looks really nice. Are you going to be doing some option parts for the vf-4 as well?
  15. That looks more like a molly than a guppy
  16. not liking robotech and attacking fans and their work and managing to work in a little nationalism while you're at it are completely different things.
  17. I guess i got in on cd japan, order status says card approved.
