There's a few milliputs but most hobby shops should stock milliput regular and milliput fine-grain. fine-grain may be a lil bit more but it works better for detail work and what-not.
MIlliput actually cures hard and is sandable. Green stuff will be flexible even after curing and is a batty to sand. So stick with millput har har har.
Even the regular Milliput is superior to green-stuff for this purpose.

It's looking good, though I gotta admit it's looks a little less intense than what Ryuji's doing since she'd butt-naked har har
-
Don't use the green-stuff from Games Workshop, it's far too flexible after cured and is a batty to sand.
For filling you can never go wrong with Milliput. Get the fine-grain version, mix up a small batch, apply and let cure for a day. MIlliput rocks because i've never had trouble with it bonding to anything and it sands down smooth.
Plus, you get a crapload more milliput per dollar than the over-priced green stuff

New GI Joes are great, though they look a lil weak on the flexible rubber materials. Required a lot of boiled water and reforming to make everything tight.
All the 25th Joes are flying off the shelves everywhere and being sold by scalpers on Ebay who are charging 10-12 dollars for figures that are only like 6 dollars.
I just said feckit and ordered em all off BBTS. NO headache there lol
-
You can still get em at BBTS, don't know how long though

Yamato's exec officially included YF-21 detachable limb tool. Sold with FP!
How big will its box be?
-
1. Looks better than the 1/72 in all 3 modes
2. Stable in all 3 modes
3. No assembly or design problems that require effort on the User Side to correct (ie DIY mods/repairs, ordering new parts)
4. No sloppy paint apps or off-center tampo printing
If the 21 can't at least accomplish the 4 points listed above, then we'll have been yamatoed. And don't worry about the detachable limbs. If they're made of cheap Thin ABS plastic like on other yamatos they'll surely be detachable ......

A Yammy VF-1d would be so easy to make as Moscato has already proved (though if yammy made it we'd have a stiff canopy instead of a semi-soft one)
Sadly, I'd only buy the YF-21, VF-11 and VT / VE
-
I dogged the LV2 until I owned one, then I saw how similiar the scheme was to Vietnam Era F-4 Phantom pics and started digging it.
Now the LV2 is one of my favs O_o
-
All the VF's are pretty much the same now.
Honestly, I like every paint scheme.
Well...
Except for the Angel Birds one.... I'm getting a 1d kit soon and will convert the Angelbirds into a custom 1D instead of having that eye-sore on my shelf.
-
-
And Yamato damn well knows everyone will buy them.
They are a little more careful after listening to the crowd and making the Kakizaki 1A
-
Aren't they releasing a 25th anniversary VF-1 this year?
-
If my white yammies start to yellow in 5 years I'll just mask the colored parts and paint the yellowed parts white
-
Speak of the devil, HLJ's back on Sept release again Yay for MW'ers
*damn double post*
-
seen a few things online for pre-orders on Ebay from HK'ers, so ya never know ....

I got 2 of the Italeri kits. I agree its the best one. The Tamiya one looks out-of-shape.
The testors, Italeri and Tamiya are like all the same kit/mold in a different box As a matter of fact just about all of Tamiya's 1/72 line are repackgaged italeri kits, down to the instructions and decals It's a great thing, except for that unlike Hasegawa Italeri Sucks and makes me have to get my own pilot figures
The X-02 really does remind me of the YF-23. Biggest Give-away for me is the way the X-02 folds down it's vert stabilizers when goin supersonic, just like the Real World YF-23.
Tis a Shame the YF-23 didn't beat out the raptor It's like the loser planes just LOOK cooler. YF-23 looks way better tha the raptor, and even in the latest JSF competition, I was rooting for the unconventional delta-wing X-32 Guppy over the F-35, despite the X-32 performing like doo doo on it's vertical take off tests

Let's hope SK got his crazy out on Kissdum and leaves the non-drugged part of his creative brain juices for a good Macross Story

1/35 MG Labors FTW! Still very poseable and cool..cept for the very limited line of just ingrams and griffon. I wanted to see Ingram Econs, helldivers, etc
I'm witht he "If it doesnt transform, Im not getting it" crowd. Sides i think Revoltechs are to small for what u pay for em. Its why I skipped Rev Labors.

I found the easiest way to get Heatshields redone was to use some good sandpaper, sand the paint off, work up to super fine grits, then super fine toothbrush + toothpaist brushing, then a coat of Future on the bottom, then Color paint of choice, followed by another coat of Future
The process only takes like 1-2 hours depending on how well you can use sandpaper.
Just be careful not to crack the heatshield >:0
