Die, Alien Scum!

Little known fact:  other than Max, Iron Mike Ditka wore a blue helmet in DYRL.

I believe he was the squad leader for Da Bears. I want to see him do the Super Bowl Shuffle.

The first one was fair at best and this sequel appears to be no improvement. I don't like being forcefully pulled through the storyline by the balls, the multiplayer bunny-hopping is totally gay, and the skins and gun sounds both suck ass. The Thompson sounds like a old-school manual typewriter... clack, clack, clack, clack. I'm not wasting my money on this overpriced, overhyped p.o.s.

Which bit did you use to cut off the extra flash?

I would use an abrasive cut-off wheel to cut the pieces from their sprues (sp?) and remove most of the excess material with a grinding stone bit. I would recommend you finish the job by hand with a file or sandpaper, though. It's pretty easy to remove too much material with the grinding bits, especially with soft stuff like resin.

hm..this may be a stupid question but...may I know what is actually a dremel?

A rotary tool with interchangeable bits for just about any job; cutting, grinding, polishing, etc. You can find more info here. They're pretty damn handy.

Payment sent for Virgin Road option set. Thanks again.

Well, Jenny finally sold her Low-Viz.

PM sent about the Virgin Road stickers.

A big thanks to Eternal_D for the 1/60 Miria Super Armor and accessories! Excellent communication, rock-solid packaging, and incredibly fast shipping made this deal super smooth! You rock, Danny!

Payment sent. Thank you Devin!

PM sent. Thanks, Anasazi!

Painting the back side of clear heatshields keeps the paint from rubbing off during transformations. Yeah, it does look a bit odd, being so shiny compared to the rest of the valk. The color is also distorted slightly, but it beats the hell out of chipped paint.

Are these waterslides or stickers? Or are you doing both?

all alone

Not anymore! We gotta represent the 'burbs of Hockeytown, pfunk!

I'd be careful with that philosophy.  You may buy too much of one thing that may not be so popular thus you get stuck with something that is worthless.

But it depends on what you collect for. For the love of the anime/hobby or for monetary reasons.

Your words are true, Godzilla, but the 1/48s are far too sweet to ever be considered "worthless".

And yet so funny.

What do you expect, Dean? The show is older than you are. Most kids your age aren't going to get into a foreign cartoon series that's 20+ years old. Planes that turn into robots don't impress kids anymore. "Transformers" and their clones have pretty much desensitized your generation to how cool a concept that is.

Payment sent. Thanks again, Cap!

I'll take three, please. I don't know how I missed this thread until now?

Thanks to samurai_m for the 1/48 Super/Strike Parts! Time to armor-up some of those naked valks!

I was enjoying this thread until MGREXX showed up and spouted out more useless babble just so he could take a weak shot at >EXO<.

Oh, and by the way, MGREXX, the way you quoted Graham's post in that other thread DID make it look like you were saying Jewel Staite is from Texas. I'm sure in your own mind you are cool and witty, but in reality... not so much. Enough said.

Any movie that has someone getting shot in the face is always a good time!

Well, I finally picked up my jaw from the floor so now I can post. Anyway...

HOLY POOP ON A STICK, THAT IS AWESOME! I CAN'T WAIT TO GET THESE!

Excellent work, Cap! And astoundingly fast! Hell, Yamato still hasn't figured out how to turn a VF-1 into a 1D, and you pull it off right before our eyes almost effortlessly! Keep up the good work!

Interesting find last night, the little circles (divided in half) that cover up the screw on the leg on the insides of each knee are made of rubbery material, not plastic like the others. They're actually quite hard to push in and keep from fallling out.

I didn't even notice this until you mentioned it. The one on the left leg of the CF I've got displayed wasn't seated into the hole properly. I just pushed it in with my fingernail and it's all good now.

Check here.

I think Richard Dawson speaks for us all...
