    Other than pro builds I’ve never seen one finished. I was thinking maybe due to size, the average person skipped them due to space. I know I didn’t buy any for that reason, but I still admire the kit. I was kinda pushing things just getting the 1/72 Queadluun Rau kit, but I felt that it was worth keeping some gundams boxed up.

    I’d take my chances, if I got one for free.

    He’s one of the reasons I have a hard time trying to convince myself to rewatch the prequels. Rose might have annoyed people, but this guy was the true Phantom Menace.

    Nope. This is a fail. It’s also too expensive to buy just to burn it in the backyard

    I’ve never checked. I don’t use it because the decal film usually has a glue, possibly starch and it sticks to the model. I’ve never had a waterslide fall off , but have heard of it happening. That could possibly be due to leaving the decal in water for too long, but I’m not really sure on that.

    I use it , but if it’s a flat surface and there’s no offending bubbles or anything I sometimes skip it. If there are panels under the decals or rounded surfaces, then it’s pretty much required to get them to conform to the surface shape. I’ve never had to use the microset or any other decal setting solutions yet, but I have some handy just in case the need ever arises.

    I don’t know about the 1/20 kit happening or not, but I have a feeling things will just be a bit simplified between offerings of the companies. Something more like 1/35 Votoms handled by wave and the larger ones by Max factory or 1/72 MaxFactory battroids for the wave 1/72 fighter kits. I know the people that bought into the 1/20 Macross kits would love to see a battroid, but I’m curious about how well those sold. I have a feeling that if it happens, it will be in small numbers. But I guess we’ll see how things go over time.

    It senses impending doom, so sensadoomu works

    I usually do gloss then decal, then gloss and a quick light sand and if it still shows then just brush a little gloss around the offfending edge and usually the leveling will make the edges disappear. It really doesn’t take that much time, maybe an hour. I then put the kit off to the side and try to forget about it for a couple days. Then I do the weathering.

    They did. That’s how the Obi show started. Lots of idiotic characters no one cares about, stupid plot and hope everyone forgives the bad writing by having big fights here and there. Same basic formula

    Are you looking for custom parts or something built from the ground up?
  12. Big s
    Maybe check out some of the folk on Etsy or Shapeways. Project V hobbies sells mostly custom gundam parts to places like USA Gundamstore and other anime related websites for hobbies. What kind of project are you looking for?

    I’m still waiting to see how much movement the knees and feet get, but I’m hopeful after seeing the shoulder and torso movement.

    Did you put a top coat on the decals after they were applied?

    I bet there will be a few dioramas. Some where it’s fallen back into a building and some where it’s fallen forward into a Chinese restaurant/ apartment building

    I just checked out of curiosity and there’s one fairly close to me in Ontario CA
  17. Big s
    Nah, they opened up after, just with angrier kids
  18. Big s
    I thought they all did

    Maybe at the Disney store at the mall. It’s a bit of hopeful thinking, but who knows where Macross merch may turn up in the near future

    After seeing the recent pictures of the 1J I’m even more excited for the 1D. If I could find some in scale buildings to have it smashed into, it would make a great diorama especially with that an crunch

    He looks like he’s got some major ptsd.
  22. Big s
    I usually do the wash after decals and topcoat so the decals get the same weathering and panel lining as the rest of the kit

    He say it like “mEEEanmAY!!!”, but it was totally Roy The Zentraedi at the beginning are pretty hilarious as well
  24. Big s
    That’s the best part of the dub. That and when Hikaru is so saddened by Roy dying that he calls Roy by his girlfriend’s name

    I was looking for other images that might show any landing gear panels and other than one or two black and white line images, I could only find that little panel for the front. The color pictures of the underside didn’t even show the front panel
