  1. Hey guyz,

    I was surfin' the web about news on Ace Combat, and I came across some news for the PlayStation 3. The console

    will be having an Ace Combat exclusive Title, Ace Combat 7.

    Here's a scan of the magazine that confirms it:

    Don't know if this news has already been posted here...

  2. There was no F-14. Skull squadron leader here was Scorch I believe and flew a Viggen.

    I miss the toys and playsets, the balljointed stands were awesome!

    My bad, but I still have a vague memory about a black and purple f-14 in Ring Raiders... Could it be flown

    by the evil chick from Skull Squadron?

  3. Hahah yeah! Well I remember a lot of cartoon shows from the 80s bro, like StarCom, Galaxy Rangers, Pole Position, Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors... I kinda made shows from the 80ies my hobby :blink:

    I think I still have some of those ring Jets from Ring Raiders... I'll try to look in those dusty boxes and try to take some snaps of it. I remember I have the Leader of the goodguys... Think his name was Victor Vector...

  4. Hey Guyz, I was just surfin' the web... and I found this movie from the 80ies... It was a

    movie of a cartoon show that I watched when I was a little kid. I remembered that the main

    character was from WW2 and was teleported into the 80-90's... or into the distant future...

    The character was given an F-5 in a tiger paintsheme, and it really looked great. He was flying with

    a team agains an evil airforce... named Skull Squadron... Yes, I said Skull Squadron... And the leader

    of that Squadron flew an F-14... But it wasn't the Skull Squadron from Macross :lol:

    Another great feature of the show was that each pilot was given a special ring... that acted as a

    trigger mechanism to transform the planes into supersonic high-tech silverkinda lookin' planes...

    Anyway... to see what I mean, here's the intro movie of the show "Ring Raiders":

  5. Hey Guyz,

    As an admirer of the F-14A/B/D Tomcat, I found it appropiate to say goodbye to our

    most respected Fighter... By posting some pictures of the F-14 to keep the memories

    burned in our memory...

    So as one of the first, I'll be posting some of my fav images of the F-14:

  6. Well I was surfin' the net as usual for information on games from Japan on "The Magic Box, and I stumbled upon this newsflash:

    "Banpresto announced Another Century's Episode 2 for PS2, the sequel to the popular mech action game, the game will have playable characters from 11 anime series. More details will be revealed at the Tokyo Game Show 2005."

    And when I looked :blink: at the screens, I saw Roy's VF-1S Strike Valkyrie in the game :D . Maybe we get to see the missing VF's from Super Dimension Fortress: Macross PS2 in this game. I mean the VF-0, YF-19 and the YF-21. Well can't wait to see more news about this game. Here are the screens. ;)

  7. I really like the ARC fighters design, not much of a real fighter, but a big heafty bomber type craft.  The Jedi Starfighters are better designed than their Episode I counterparts, but the cockpit looks awefully exposed.

    And any info on when us Yankees will be able to get some of those?

    Being a quick snap together kit, it would be great to play with, and at a decent price too.

    The design of the ARC Fighter is indeed awesome looking. And yes, it really doesn't looks like a fighter... especially for it's size compaired to an X-wing. It reminds me more of an Imperial Assault Gunboat from the Galactic Empire era.

    Republic ARC-170 Fighter & Imperial Assault Gunboat as seen in the X-wing PC games.

  8. Hey thanks for the heads up!  I don't have the time and space to build models.  These will do just fine!

    Well, it never hurts to help spread the force of Snap together kits ;). These kits are excellent for people who don't have the time to really build model kits, but still want to build them very quickly and easily.

    Just checked the link for the NA to order these kits. They are pretty expensive for a snap together from revell. Even with the import costs... <_< But still, who doesn't want to have this ARC fighter... :D Fun and Easy to build!!!

    Another tempting pic:

    (Making the Impulse Gundam look cool :D)

  9. Great looking~ any scale information? do you have a X-Wing or something side by side?

    I've put the ARC Fighter side by side with an X-wing from the Action Fleet series. It has the same scale, and the pilots are the same size like the action fleet figures. But the rest of the model kits have different scales...

    About the prices of these babies, there are 3 types of boxes. the first box type is about 10 Euro's, 2nd is 15 euro's and 3rd is 25 euro.

  10. With Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith released in theaters all over the world, merchanidise of SW:RotS are popping up here and there... Two days ago, I was walking around in my town checking the local toy stores for fun stuff. Then I stumbled upon a very big carded box for some Star Wars stuff... As I looked at it,I saw it was a stand for new Star Wars model-kits of the latest movie. And to my surprise these kit's doesn't needed to be painted and glued... So I bought 2 kits to try them out. Well these are the ones I bought:

    - Anakin's Jedi Star Fighter

    - Arc-170 Fighter

  11. Okay... okay... let's also put up a zoomed shot of the Freedom Gundam. ;) This guy was a little more work then the other 2 gundams. I had to airbrush the wings because they were molded totally in a blue color. <_< But it was quite challanging to color the wings... And there you go... a colorfull FREEDOM Gundam hehehe B))

    (More pics of my collection coming soon... ) :blink:
