  1. The Last Jedi wasn't a good movie for me. I know people like it but more power to them. I usually don't pay attention to politics or drama. But when creators and their supporters began to be outright hostile to fans who are critical of TLJ I did start to care. Name-calling and ranting about "toxic" fans is retarded. Blaming customers is retarded. But that's exactly what many people at Lucasfilm and the entertainment media have done. I think I walked away from Star Wars after a white person told me I'm racist for not liking Rose Tico. I'm Vietnamese. Let that sink in.... Now people are telling me the movie and the renewed franchise aren't for "toxic fans" like me. Fine. I can deal with that. Just don't blame us when we don't go out to watch the movies and the box-office suffers.
  2. I hope gundam NT does well enough for us to get some Master Grades. Would love a Gustav Karl in 1/100 so I can model one getting its arm chopped off by Jesta Tri-stars
  3. I think it should be no prob lighting them up, though I think the quad VSBR unit won't have the noice back lighting
  4. GD it. I just bought the F91 2.0 and now they announce the MSV version. Well... I needed a 2nd F91 to make both MSV units AMIRITE?
  5. Dammit I miss frontier all over again. TIme to go fire up those old Blurays again.
  6. The Gunblastor is just a recolored Gun-ez with high-mobility backpack. THough yeah Palace Athene would be sweet. Here's a scan from the ancient 1/100 gun blastor they had. Totally! I never dreamed we'd see another V-gundam release after the shaky V2 release. (Still holding out hope for add-on parts for the V2 ver ka)
  7. I know they announced the RG FA unicorn and all, but the real star of the announcements is the RE-100 Gun-EZ. SO happy that Victory gundam is getting some love, though I hope they have some of the bad guys in the mix too. The Ancient 1/100 Zollida is the only bad guy they ever made afaik. P-Bandai Gunblastor? :0
  8. Gundam NT narrative jestas are coming out. They look really meh. Like... ZOMG TACTICOOL NIGHT VISION GOGGLEZ.... when you could just installed another sensor inside the visor or something One is basically a Jesta + Stark backpack + FA unicorn boosters [LINK] The other is just a Jesta with the same Tacticool helmet attachment and two extra guns [LINK] Will probably skip both. Not a fan of the Tacticool attachments

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    I'm more excited about the arm cannon tbh
  12. Trust me many of us wish there was a uniqlo for our valks too :0
  13. Oooh that looks awesome. Scared of the pricetag though.
  14. What? 99% Fighter only while doing Scissors manuevers and dramtically yelling "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh" with speed lines doesn't count as action?
  15. Wow that's rough. The only way I've seen this type of thing fixed is by pinning the piece in conjuction with an epoxy like JBweld. Drilling for pin prep is the huge PITA part when it comes to Diecast as Diecast is porous and actually brittle compared to regular machined / forged / stamped steel. You'll need a vice and a drill press to properly drill a ~1 mm hole. Don't expect to be able to do it by hand with a dremel as drill bits will skip like hell on diecast and you're more likely to end up with the drill bit in your finger / hand. Once you do have a hole it's just a matter of getting a properly sized steel pin, score it with a file and then use an epoxy as an adhesive.
  16. none of my hmrs or even regular. hi metals have that leg issue. i blame lazy person who transformed it for the photos
  17. I don't think it's a removable canopy. I just think that proto they were transforming didn't have clear parts on it. It doesn't even have the landing lights for the shins installed.
  18. Bandai Appears to have updated their listing for the upcoming MG GM 2.0 - White Dingo Version. Now with added Rocket Launcher. Too bad it's the ancient one from the MG Ground Gundam from 18 years ago. Wish we could get an updated bazooka that has a swivel like the HG GM Ground type revive has
  19. I just finished the test-fit on the EVO GM Spartan Conversion kit. Will need throw everything in a bin with some dish soap before the priming begins.
  20. don't feel lile turning this into an arcadia thread, but they could prolly get some funding by offering kit versions of the 1a/j/s or even their vf-0's.
  21. Ooh noice. That's the completed version which is actually pretty well made. I bought a pre-made one 2 yearss back because I was lazy and I don't regret it
  22. Well, actually it was from user feedback. When the Draken is mentioned I read this "ユーザーからもその変形の難易度が高いとの声があった" Basically translates to a lot of users said the transformation was hard Can you believe that? Bandai actually does listen to customers sometimes hehehe. Maybe they can listen to us about the YF-19's reversed colors and huge ass white wing lettering? Anyhow, really psyched for this VF-1J. The Plastic Latch for the metal swingbar looks like something I'm gonna need to be really gentle with. Folding Nosecone for GBP, nice catch

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Part of me wants to pick up Chuck but the other part of me wants to hold off and save the cash for the Armored Pack for the 31S and all those inevitable DX VF-1's
  24. Figma's are 1/12 scale right? It would be crazy cool to have these displayed with my new Riobot Mospeada stuff
  25. ultra psyched to complete the four main ride armor characters. if they so throw in some faceless grunts or the one episode character ride armors i will need to get more display space....
