i think its cool. though i agree in real life it would probably be some simple type of clamping mechanizm. i just think it looks cool having a strap on a gun

is megaroad shown in the japanise version of macross? i have robotech and don't remember anything like that

what is the "megaroad" and why did hikaro misa and minmay all go to the center of the galaxy?? sorry if i mispelt any names.

this is more of a test for the traditional geek, not the new or "neo-geek" that has emerged lately. i got a 16 but i was liberal, if i was even close to haveing something i checked it. i'm just a geek.

i'm not looking forward to this movie at all.

intrested too.

that was the original design for the predator, van damm was going to be the guy in the suit but he complained too much so they switched suits and actors... food for thought, we owe the bad ass predator we now all love to van damm's whinnyness.... than you very much for posting the pics! ps, anyone else think that red version looks kinda like jar jar binks?

people died in that quake, if i was you, i'd just put my valks back up and stop gripeing. as for quakes in general, its just the common disaster of the area. there are dangers living anywhere, tornados, hurricanes, lightning, floods, hail, frozen rain, army ants, what ever. you just gotta deal with it. i dont' think i'd ever leave california because of the geographic "dangers" raging lunatic liberals on the other hand....

***bump*** c'mon guys, no one has a screen grab or production picture of this thing?

word. i'm sick of the lame foreshadowing

Invader Zim's Most Horrible Xmas Ever! "MEMBRAIN: Freind to the world, enemy of SANTA!" More christmas specials should end with giant robot fights and the easter platipus.

i've seen it before, i just want a picture to show my roommate.

oh yeah, nothing in a cartoon could possibly be based on a real object, after all, cartoons all have anvils falling on people and eyeballs pop out of the heads when they get supprised. as for the tank, i thought it looked something like a tiger tank in a few pictures but for the most part its probably just made up.

does anyone have any pictures of this abomination? i remember seeing pictures a long time ago but i can't find them now its described as " a long necked creature with a dogs head and a larg eye in the middle" anyone know where i can find this?

there are 18 pictures in that link, and your telling us to look for a "little twist" wich picture is it?

its been a while, when is the next pakage due? use dates since if you say "today" it gets confusing.

he probably plays with them more than any of us anyway, kinda like the kid who always picks on gays because he, himself, is gay.

kinda cool, question though: how do those destroids reload their weapons if they are fused to the hull of the ship, the spartain in paticular. i also don't understand why they took already slow mecha, and ATTACHED them to the hull in the first place, that hardly made their predicament in the battlefeild better. maybe they are remote operated? imagine if they took the nose of an A-10, cut if off the plane (pilot and all) and grafted it to the top of an abrams to add a gatlin gun to the tanks armorment. kinda a goofy idea.

i remember when the starwars x-wing flight sims came out, i don't know why they don't do that for the valkyries.

if its the passenger side mirror then just file it down and leave it off. you dont' need a passenger side mirror.

VF-19Pilot.. seriously, what did you expect here? the old tactic of saying something insulting and following it up by saying your just jokeing around is kind of old and transparent. It's pretty clear you just started this thread to insult people who feel diffrently than you then hide behind the guise of "not taking it seriously" when people try to defend themselfs. what ever. Personally i feel anything that comes pre-boxed and "ready to play" IS a toy, no matter how pretty it is. the 1/48's definately had collectors in mind, but any kid over 9 could easly play with it and not have it fall apart. I happen to like both the 1/48s and 1/55 and especially the tiny little banpresto guys (dunno the scale) and i dont' feel the need to put anyone down for their prefrence in valkyrie toys, there're bigger fish to fry. if you're talking about art then think of this: the chunky could arguably be a more stylized version of the valk, the fact that construction techneques of its time we're less advanced meant the designers of the bandai valk had less to work with and had to be MORE creative to get it to work at all. the 1/48's were probably ironed out on the computer and had more to do with matching existing line art than creating something that was previously NEVER seen before (ie: a valk that turns from robot to jet to gerwalk) as for your comment about "the laddies" i'll just let that one go and for the record, i'd never go out with a girl that didn't enjoy my collections. my girl happens to dig the little gundam figures. anyway.. my $.02

i would have loved to see it with all the main stars being japanize, the american soldiers leading the armys of imperial japan could have played a small part and only aided in the strengthining of the conflict. i can't remember his name now, but the lead samurai was a very powerful actor, i could have easly watched him with out any white actor to support him. i stress again, go watch 7 samurai, it'll get any of that bad cruise after taste out of you. (still, cinematography, costume design, and the japanise actors were very well done in Last Samurai)

anyone know anything about the IL2 update that supposedly will allow for p-51 mustangs and p-38 lightnings? i'd love to mix it up in a p-38

the German dive bomber (witht he wheels locked in the permanently down position) coudl have a pair of big cannons slung underneath, from the side it might look like just one big cannon. i forget what its called, it's the diver bomber with non retractable landing gear.
