    1/48 Vf-1d Custom

    definitely... nice custom work.... valks in all paint schemes look friggin nice....
  3. are u sure??? my Mace has upgraded sounds.... has all 4 clash sounds.... dunno about the quality of the hum.... does ur box say Ep. 3 Revenge of the Sith on it??? it might be the older model.....
  4. from posting at FXsabers.com.... i found that the rattling noise is actually the motion sensor that causes the variant hums when u swing ur FX saber... Chowser had a bunch of posts about his conversions somewhere in teh middle of this thread..... since FX's sabers are so cheap now... i was considering getting a conversion done myself....
  5. ahhh.... this is a good thing.... as Roy has been last on my list of 1/48's to collect since he's been so readily available.... haha... score for me!!
  6. i've never watched any episodes of Battlestar Galactica but i recently borrowed the DVD set from someone.... just stayed up till 4 watching the 1st disc and the 3 hour miniseries.... CRAZY ENDING!!! haha.... frickin Boomer.... can't wait to watch the rest of the show and catch up w/ the craze....
  7. here's my mini review.... there are things i like and things i don't like about it. The number 1 thing this has got going for it is poseability. It is very articulate and the proportions are actually quite nice. The quality of each lion has its pros and cons too.... the die-cast feels quite nice and sturdy, but the plastic used for the legs and the head just kinda suck. PLUS the coloring for the head to the body is off, especially on the Yellow Lion. That's why the head looks kinda funny. The paint job on the die-cast parts are really nice... especially on the green and blue Lions. They have sparkly pearls in the paint, but the red and yellow lions are kinda dull comparitively. The big dissapointment in this set is the lack of extras. The Sword and Shield are nicely sculpted, but as far as the extras on the Lions themselves, there's nothing fantastic about them to make them worth displaying in their lion forms. With the time they took on making this... they could have added all the cool little features that the old voltron toys did, where the missle in the yellow lion fired, or at least it was there. And where the sides of the yellow lion's heads popped open. Or on the Blue lion where the backpack came up to shoot something and such. Even the green and red lion's head don't fire, but i can see how the exchanged this feature for poseability. However, i still think it could have been possible to make it launch and still have poseability. SOOOOO.... all and all... i like it in its combined form a lot. The lack of anything else wil make sure this baby stays this way for long while in my display case....
  8. yea.... i'd love to meet Mari.... how about someone try to book her first and see when she's available and go from there!! haha..
  9. yeah!!! love the display case.... where'd u get it?? and how much???? along w/ buying all these expensive toys.... finding a nice way to display also matters....
  10. yea... spacing out the cons might be helpful to a lot of people... money wise... time wise...... last year the con was in June.... sounds like a good time for me... haha.... how about late June... yea???
  11. yah... i need to know a set date sometime soon too.... i'm planning out summer stuff already and i might have something booked the weekend of July 15th... the weekend before SDCC.... SOOOOOO lets set that date!!!
  12. those are all just too cute and tender....
  13. nice JM dat!!!! seeing more JM's makes me want to get one.... but i fear i may open a can of worms starting to collect these....
