The thing is......I won't be building anything.
Oops sorry sqidd, missed that last line. My bad.

Crazy, I was going to pop in here this morning asking if you guys had a recommendation for a pretty big Yamato. I may actually have a spot for that monster. Two critical factors though (and two lesser factors).
-How much does it cost (I can never get the Tamashii site to work, I suck)?
-How tall is it? Does someone have a Yamato they can measure height vs length off of so I can calculate a probable height of this monster? I'm limited to 18". This one is 43.3" long.
-Is it detailed enough for my tastes?
-How much is it going to cost to ship? My guess $250-300.

So, back to what I was originally going to ask. The SOC GX-86 is 17" long. While fairly large and apparently a very nice unit I would like something bigger to fill the space I have for it. Do you guys have a recommendation for something bigger? Let's say 24-36"?
Thanks!
My recommendation is the official 2199 1/500 Bandai kit. It is 666mm (roughly 26 inches) and is the best detailed kit on the market. And is a fraction of the cost.

These are improgress pics of mine I have since finished her but never took new pictures, She’s a big girl

If anyone is curious that’s roughly 1/303 scale. 1/302.7+

Yeah I’ll admit I didn’t know what the “Big Thing” was but Trek Yards explained it. Figured it was a reference from TAS.

Episode 2 was a blast too. Lots of references to the E-D. Lol

I loved when he was just gnawing on the guys head for a while at the end. So disturbing…Lol
Also this epic scene. Can’t remember if it was in a trailer so I spoilered it. The body is an actual practical effect too!

I watched it last night and really enjoyed it too. Lots of fun! Num Num

Groan….the holiday one from last year was TERRIBLE.

Hmm, a different reaction. A commenter in the review described it as a “art-house fantasy”

Nice to see Annie Potts is still cute as heck. Paul Rudd is great in anything so that's a plus.
Getting a bit tired of Finn Wolfhard being in all these 80's throwbacks.
Well...I guess it can't be worse than Ghostbusters 2.
Yeah Annie looks great. She’s on Young Sheldon and has looked great there too.

I was just thinking they missed an opportunity with the pilots…..too bad they didn’t make the one arm hand stand Pidge and the squatting Hunk to pose with the Lions like in the closing credits. Or really just make the “standing” figures like all the pilots in the end credits.

To late ShowZ. I already reordered through BBTS. I wonder if this will hurt ShowZ? Just arbitrarily canceling orders has people looking elsewhere most of which required the deposit too. Just canceling without explanation….in the email…. People figured like we did that they over ordered so we all went elsewhere.

Same ShowZ cancelled mine as well.

I’m in.

Thanks for the heads up, I decided to preorder. If I decide not to get it I can cancel, but this just looks too good to pass up.

That’s how I felt about JK Simmons. I first saw him in a little show called Oz on HBO. He scared/disturbed me so much I had a really hard time not seeing him as that character in anything else for YEARS. Even when he played J Jonah Jameson. And I was an adult too when I first saw him in Oz! Lol
