Silverstreak

But the JJPrise does look good.

Anyone who played the old TIE fighter PC game (and related series) will know that the TIEs not having shields or life support systems or hyper drives enabled them to keep their mass down which meant that they could fly circles around X-wings. They had great maneuverability where as the X-wings were tanks.

But anyway, people hating on the new x-wing for its artistic license over real-world physics, while at the same time forgiving the old x-wing for the exact same thing for no valid reason is HIGHLY amusing. Hypocritical, even.

Finally got one. Thanks to all those who helped out

Next on the list is a YF-21. But that's a story for another day.

Edit: in the op I said that a VF-4 would be the end of my current collecting. Then the last post I say I'll be looking for a YF-21 next. Lol. This crap is addictive.

Ended up to pricey for me.

In case you're still looking, there's a new posting at Mandarake:

Have asked for a postage quote. Still probably too expensive though. Thanks though

I really want to see B-wings. They should be commonplace, or upgraded like the X-wing, by that point. They really got shafted, screen-time-wise, in ROTJ.

A-wings. They're where it's at

Is be all for a series that officially tied the end of G1 into the start of the Maximal/Predacon era. But to just continue G1 because Geewun, nope. Forget it. It's over.

Nope, mine had that problem. Did the nail polish fix. (FULLY moving the black glareshield into place actually makes it worse, 95% is a better fit for the nose, but was visibly misaligned prior to the fix)

What's the nail polish fix?

Well, now I'm going to have to get a definitive list of Gobots, JUST IN CASE there are some that are really cool and I've either forgotten about or never knew they existed.

I actually miss my Cop-tur...

Is there a definitive list?

Maybe because we grew up watching… wait for it… Voltron!

Holy crap. KO ratbat.

That's something I feel completely ok about buying. Haha.

I bought 2

Impressive. Most impressive.

This one on AE is quite reasonably priced compared to whats out there. Still pricey though..

You and I have very different views on what "reasonably priced" means then

Smokescreen looks awesome

Edited my order. Counted up my Valks and don't need as many adaptors as I thought.

Got my eye on that one thanks

Anyone?

My order:

Silverstreak

YetiStand XL Arm: 7
YetiStand Dual Arm: 7

YetiStands adapters
DX Banking Adapter: 4
YA Banking Adapter: 2

Valk specific adapters:
Yamato 1/60 SV-51 adapter: 1
Yamato 1/60 YF-21/VF-22 Battroid Stand Adapter: 1

Other adapters:
TF MP V2 Seeker Robot Adapter: 1
TF MP V2 Seeker Fighter Adapter: 1

But... but I already have a YF-19! You can't do this to me Bandai! Don't make me spend more money! Please!

I don't need any stands as I bought 7 last round, but I do want a few more arms and adapters. So if you're keen I'll be in. Just gotta work out what I want tonight.

As I ordered a ton of stands from you last run, I don't need any more. I do however want some XL and double arms and some more adaptors. Can I throw an order in?

I was thinking about doing a video, or pictorial to assist in doing this. What I like to do is apply it while the base pivot and base is assembled. Hold it bottoms up, and carefully and slowly pool it onto the tab from the bottom. The tab doesn't sit flush on the bottom, so there is a little "trough" you can carefully fill. The solvent typically seeps up the tab a bit. If it doesn't, you can pull it out a few millimeters and than re-seat it. The solvent will start to form a skin fairly quickly, so you need to do all of this in a short amount of time. "Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast". Try the solvent out on something else so you get an idea of the viscosity.

Thanks Yeti, that's all the info I need

So I got myself a medium bodied acrylic solvent so as to glue the yeti stand bits together but how is the best way to approach this without making a mess and ruining them?

I'm scared

I'm gonna have to put in another order for extra arms and adapters. And I'm gonna have to track down a YF-21 now.

My wallet hates you Yeti.

That's still expensive for a stand that looks like ass. Glad I got the YetiStands instead
