    Beautiful collection you got there! :blink: Where can i buy them? What RC brand and type are they? And which do you suggest is a good buy? :unsure:

    Looks good, I remember Back Yard Flyer did a review on that sounded good. Best of luck it's a great hobby.

    Also I just got my L-39 from towerhobby, THIS is going to be a good week end! I'll post some pics sat or sun.

    Excellent, The L-39 from towerhobby does look promising.

    Copters, both R/C and real-life ones are relatively hard to fly. Also, you can't help but notice all of the "cheap" copters that have flooded the market; the saying "you get what you pay for" is extremely important here. I don't know about the cost, quality or features of what you bought however I'd tell anyone else to stay away from cheaper department store copters.

    Check out Tower Hobbies for entry level electric machines all the way up to bigger, powerful gas powered ones that could put Blue Thunder and Airwolf to shame...

    The copter i got from brookstone was relatively cheap..about $30...What do you consider to be a safe price range for RC copters / planes?

    I've Been flying rc planes for a few years and bought a helicopter last winter for indoor flying, a Blade CX2 E-Flight Found it easy to fly and is well known so most rc shops have parts. I was in Tyler TX on business broke most of the roter assembly and found parts. :D

    Link to the site: http://www.e-fliterc.com/Products/Default....ProdID=EFLH1250

    The Blade CX2 looks awesome, hows the battery life though?

    I've been interested in the RC planes with the miniature jet engines. I can't afford them, but they sure do look cool!

    Which RC planes with the miniature jet engines are you referring to? Sounds interesting...

    YF-19 VS YF-21 FIGHTER DESIGN => YOUR CHOICE

    in Toys

    Posted

    21 for me.

    The hood makes it look like an assassin and its about to stalk something and shoot it in the back by sneaking.

    The 19 looks 'heroic'. It's got the overdone samurai shoulder armor hanging off to the sides making it an easier target, the uniboob which doesn't look good in robot mode, and the cowboy hip guns which make a cool weapon but to be honest seems like an afterthought more than anything. Not as good as wrist guns.

    I think the 21 has better design as a fighter: the wings and fins can bend, dual gunpods, better armored head turret (robots do not need heads they are not humans!) look more fast and agile than the 19 (and guld is a crappier pilot than dyson so the fighter is what allows him to stay close to him in performance) and do not forget... the best pilots of each race Max and Miria use these (VF-22 which is based on the 21) so it's just like DYRL all over again: max has the blue Qrau and Milia has the Red Qrau. Together they are unstoppable using these new Qrau.

    The end result is..

    21 is for the elite pilots like gamlin max and milia who are calm under pressure.

    The flashy loose canon pilots like hikaru and dyson have the 19 which is slightly crappier than the 21 for most situations. (only 1 gunpod, having to go into robot mode just to change clips - really poor design imo)

    I could go into other things like the ability of the 21 to eject its limbs and still be able to fly around in fighter mode, the vectored thrust, brainwave controls etc but that's boring. Best to just say it outclasses the 19 which just wants to look fancy because the person who designed it wants to be different and never got enough attention as a kid. :p Even guld mentioned in the fight against the ghost that he has a better chance of beating it with his superior fighter while dyson should save the girl. Dyson grudgingly agreeing means he knows the unsafe yf-19 is more likley to make a mistake than the more-reliable yf-21 with all the advanced gimmicks it is loaded with. The 19 even has fast packs on the shoulders which don't look practical since it obstructs the view. Yang must have watched evangelion and copied the idea of putting a big lump there. Whereas if you look at the yf-21 is has a slicker and more practical design: it can conceal the weapons in fighter mode better, the limbs are rounded instead of blocky so air flows around it smoother in battroid mode. Canons in its arms make it hard to completely disarm at close range, wings are useful in battroid mode, skinny legs provide less drag in gerwalk mode, it's got better balance since the shield is on either arm in gerwalk whereas the 19 has the shield on 1 side, if one arm gets blown off then jettisoning won't affect the fighter mode etc etc.. 21 is a better design.

    The end! :D

    Two bad yamato can't make a VF-22. :(

    Amen brother!

    Ive desperately been looking for a spare part, namely a Microman Chirico Cuvie's Helmet/Gas mask. I just need the Helmet/Gas mask and not the figure itself. If anyone is interested im willing to trade a Round Mover or a Fyana microwoman figure that came with the DMZ-03 Scopedog II for Chirico Cuvie's Helmet/Gas mask. Please let me know. Thanks

    Looking for 4'' and 6'' FlexiDsplay Stands

    in Wanted

    Posted

    I just read a post in the Strike A Pose thread that said that Los will be getting more in this summer and that a pre-order should be up soon.

    :ph34r:

    I recently emailed Carlos about availability of the 6" FlexiDisplay Stands and this is what he replied

    "Robby,

    We should have them back in-stock this summer. Pre-orders will be listed very soon.

    Cheers,

    GEEZ people. Quit your whining. :rolleyes:

    Lost and Found Toys has been remaking the flexi's now for the past few years. I just checked, and Los still has the 2.5" ones in stock in his online store. They're probably just running low and waiting on their restock. Just wait a bit; I'm sure the store will have flexi's soon enough.

    Or better yet quit complaining, e-mail Los, and let him know you're interested.

    Seriously, I doubt the flexi's are going away anytime soon (Hell, I've seen 'em used on Star Wars toys on rebelscum.com).

    Just a heads up for those that are interested
