  1. Thanks amigo ya , using a clear eye with an led would be the best. The rear thrusters on the main fuselage are glued to a detailed piece that would cover a battery compartment and allow to drill straight through to the eye. But I wasn't feeling nearly ambitious enough to bore that space out enough to hold a 9v and drill through. Figuring out how to make the rear thruster plate attachable and detachable would be the easy part, but still take some doing..
  2. you're so kind! when i take the subway to Venus , dragging a wagon full of Macross models, you can have what doesn't fit
  3. Mmm. So you're saying many well lit display cabinets are possibly coffins?
  4. The KOR are a huge plot hole in the movies. If they had been edited out, we wouldn't know or care. They didn't affect the movies one iota. But because they're there and mentioned multiple times. We are forced to wonder wtf..
  5. Ya . Well..so they've coined a term for the post KOTOR era. More like carved out a niche from the later half, as KOTOR went back from something like 10,000 years before the battle of Yavin(ANH) to 100. Now they've decided 400 years BBY is "the high republic". A relatively peaceful time, so many Jedi went on the hippy trail and got high. This may be the time when yoda first got Bob Dylan high... So does Rian J still have a job? Yes Diznit owns KOTOR, but they wanna carve up the pie..
  6. Um.. the long lasting cultural impacts of the Macross VF-1... i think..
  7. Well, ya..! Mine always were
  8. Yep. Once again we have to go read the comics or buy the visual guide to figure anything out about The knights of Ren. Like how KR became the leader by defeating "The Ren" (?) and was he an official knight before or after he killed his father? As all KOR must sacrifice something they love.. And is he "The Ren" once he's leader or just Emo Ren..? It's all so confusing
  9. I didn't think so. For what they were/are, Yamato was/is the shizzle. Now, I've always said the DX is probably overall better engineered, quite pretty, and probably decently sturdy( not in those exact words) so , I'm not knocking it, I'm sure it's an awesome toy. Just putting the Yammie in perspective. And i dare say they're still relevant. For variants alone. Ooooh, that's one of those aforementioned holy relics! I miss my 1/55 VT. But it would probably be a real hot mess by now..
  10. Ok, sooo.. here is the latest progress on this project..bean very focused on the Armored VF, but that's nearly complete and I'm putting time in over here.. The main upper intake still has the masking tape inside, got to finish the "red eye" and surrounding port.. The side thrusters need panel lining , over all needs another light round with the white, some dry brushing , detailing and weathering , a clear coat, bit more panel lining , another clear coat and decals. Oh ya, landing gear, air brake, side panel missile launchers attached, etc., Lol.. See you next Deculture
  11. Lol. Good point. I like that
  12. Lol, ya Bandai got my dead prez' with the HMR's , some VF,31's and many 3 mode 1/72's (last year alone ).. "one way or another- I'm gonna getcha,getcha,getcha.."
  13. Umm...don't we all?
  14. Yep..don't think they even reissued the 31-A. I need a few more of those.
  15. Lol. Dude! I think the Yammies aged just fine. Look how quickly Bandai's V1 VF-25's yellowed (ya we do have something to compare) or broke apart upon transformation. Also paying $200 bucks 20 years ago wasn't so bad considering cost, hassle and qc issues these days. Oh ya, let's not mention pre order ridiculous antics and scarcity issues. Am i the only one who doesn't have a Yamato yellowing Hikaru VF-1S? Lets see how those DX's are down the road, see you in 20
  16. Does anyone remember when TMNT was a black and white comic ? And it was gritty and violent..now they're hello kitty with a weapon..
  17. Wow. Ok. I'm now inspired to use some of these 1/48 water slides and stickers on my Yammies. I was mostly tampo jealous
  18. Cool. Another 262. I love the VF-0C.
  19. Lol. Good point. I can't give my v1's away. Now they're slated to be customs.
