  1. "Duy, you have the money, why can't you buy what you want whenever you want?" /me points at ring finger
  2. Every unit I got in the first run required me to either: A. Take apart the unit with a scalpel and glue it together right B. Putty in chipped-off sections and sand C. File off flash on pegs in order to make units fit better D. Repaint partial sections of the models in order to cover up repairs, ior finish painting on incomplete parts (like the black canopy frames, argh!!) Then since the decals are very glossy, after doing all the work They need a flat clear coat to take away the excess shine. A lot of effort to make a completed model look good it's best. I wish they had been a lil more careful about the construction and painting.
  3. Fan-Approved 1A's (angel birds and DYRL hayato) sold like crap. The good thing is if you are going for customs you can find those two cheaper in many stores. Good Custom fodder. Bad things is that yamato isn't going to be as optimistic about a new color scheme after hearing MW'ers say "I'd soooo buy that!!"
  4. The only good macross item Bandai has ever made was the 1/100 VF-2ss, And it's only good because it's the only out of the box variable kit of the mecha ever made, period. I have no expectations for even a Master-Grade vf-25 since Bandai has yet to make a good-transforming model unless you call transforming putting a shield on your head and folding your legs like you're going into missionary position or something
  5. god damnit... I've been holding off on all teh CM's because I already had everything in slightly better looking 1/35 MG format. Now they have to bring out the Zero..... All I ever wanted was for Bandai to finish the MG Patlabor line with the helldiver, peacemaker, av-98 economy, Saturn, AV-02, Zero proto, brocken....jeesh bandai sux
  6. That may all be true, but I still like the Guppy
  7. That magazine scan has the only pic I wanted to see before committing. The side profile looks sweet. This'll be my second 1/60 next to my YF-19 har har har >
  8. He looks like those Gymnastics people right when they finish their routine
  9. Ah...Anime, it's not commercially available for way too long. We have a saying, Pound the metal while it's still hot. The American Anime industry seems to always start long after it's cold and rusted. Prolly the only things companies might make money on would be Jointly released OVA's so that there's never a reason to download fansubs since the product is already commercially available locally.
  10. I've had my WII for 6 months now and bored to death of it. Sure the motion thingy is fun and all, but it's the same as the NO-GameCube. Good game once every 5-6 months and then waiting...waiting...waiting... I'm only holding onto it because for some ungodly reason Nintendo Snagged the Monster Hunter Franchise from Sony... I do NOT want to have to swing my controller 92340923 times to kill ratholos. Or, god forbid, make a wrong movement on the motion controller and get one-shotted by an easily aviodable attack from Fatalis or something, Monster Hunter is frustrating already as is.... though since the WII has a lanyard I can throw the controller in Anger without worrying woot
  11. f-35? bah I liked the x32 'Guppy' more, even if it was a gimp during the JSF competition.
  12. Honestly I'm going to pass on these. The Legioss looks off Prolly the best sculpt I've ever seen for Legioss was the dead John Moscato Legioss project, though that one had a lil fat nose that compromised for soldier mode. If it had a slightly longer nose it'd be unbeaten imho. However, I AM going to pick up one of the ride armors. Then I'll fill in all the gaps with putty, smooth it out and repaint it to look less toy-like
  13. I usually coat the sides of the stripped hole with thin coat of 5-min epoxy. After that I let it cure then everything is A-OK
  14. In Scale Destroids (1/48 for the vf-1's) In Scale figure kits (standing pilots in 1/48, etc) Other support craft like the catseye
  15. It's pretty simple for me. I just don't buy what I can't afford and I only buy what I actually want. At this point that only happens to be 1/48's vf-1's and the 1/60 M+ stuff. Prolly only other Macross thing I'll grab is anything from Macross Frontier
  16. BOO, LV1 = best looking 1A >
  17. Get all S ranks is the best way to unlock the majority of valks. Using Max's 1A vs Myira and getting an S unlocks Max's 1j or something, don't remember lol. All I know is..... Play kakizaki's 1a on the DYRL stage where he gets shot down () It's worth the laugh
  18. All 1/72 club M's should have metal pilots in them. Hell, some of mine had an extra pilot (maybe i got yours tee hee)
  19. Honestly I think the YF-21 and VF-22 are ruined by their wtf-shaped canopies. If they looked like the Prototype YF-21, i'd say the YF-21/22 is the best design only because I'm a fan of the failed YF-23 Hell, once I get my 1/60 YF-21 I'm going to change the canopy to that of a proto 21 and repaing the whole thing >
  20. Love the game, though I HATE the lil drones. They fly in crazy apeshit circles and the only way I can kill em easily is to either have my wingman kill em or use the special weapon that acts like the AIM-9X Honestly, if the F-2 could equip rockets it'd be the only plane I'd ever use. Not because it rocks but because it looks cool A lil OT, but an F-2 just went up in smoke in Japan...apparently had a fire during take-off *sniff*
  21. WOOT REvoltech Helldiver in the works Why buy a 1/48 when you can have 5 lil revoltech versions for the same price >
  22. HELLDIVER!! Too bad it's not 1/35, I always wanted bandai to make an MG Helldiver, but I'll settle for the wave 1/48
  23. I don't know why they keep reissuing the DYRL VF-1's with the crappy old pilots instead of the new gummy ones....
  24. two seaters = I would buy at least 2 of each
  25. Pretty much nothing has changed on any of the 1/48's after the 1A max other than the colors
