  1. I still think that Max Factory kinda squashed my interest in Hasegawa Battroid kits. The new joints didn’t seem to add much from what they’ve shown here.
  2. They sent them all to the U.S. apparently since they’re at all the stores here including some of the brick and mortar shops.
  3. I get what you’re saying, like if I hold an old 90’s poster up to her, but I guarantee you that she would probably get an extreme backlash that would put the whole project in jeopardy.
  4. I think that if you really like the plamax battroid, then their fighter would probably make a better match to go with it. If you’re trying for a multi mode display, you might consider waiting for a 1 j fighter
  5. Definitely a nice display
  6. I’m the exact opposite. I usually don’t like the clown paint jobs and have always been a bad guy fan. Vader from og Starwars or Cobra from GI Joe or Skeletor from He Man or Zeon from Gundam. I’m a bit down the middle with Macross though.
  7. All the zeon inspired stuff is mostly rounded. In Hathaway, it’s on the messer types. On unicorn it’s on the all neo zeon sleeves mecha, there’s a few in ibo for example
  8. They may have been a failure in Macross, but a secret win for gundam. All joking aside, I’m surprised they still use round hands on a good amount of designs from that series
  9. I believe that they are planning more than just this 1j. They have plans shown for movie options for other models. If this isn’t the one you want a movie 1a or1s might be worth waiting for.
  10. I’m ok with 1/144
  11. IGN is usually pretty soft on movie reviews, so this isn’t a good sign. Then again it is a Disney movie and they’ve been kinda dropping the ball lately, so I’m pretty sure it’s another skippable movie
  12. Isn’t that the sr III that was up for po. There are color pics on the previous page
  13. It sucks too that the Regults are so easy to get, yet I’ve only seen the Defender at Amazon, but At almost double price. Keep checking and maybe it will turn up at a less common site
  14. I bet someone will try. It would take some real mods to the frame do do it, but I’m betting with a lot of work that it could be done
  15. Supposedly Fleabag takes the hat. They were planning a series around her. From other things I’ve heard is that Mutt got killed offscreen after getting drafted. He didn’t really seem interested in another franchise character and has pretty much talked crap about his character in Indy. He likes doing hit and mostly miss art film type characters more these days, but maybe he’ll need some cash and come back somehow. The one thing I know for sure is this is the first Indy movie that I just don’t feel excited for. There’s gotta be some really great word of mouth for me to care enough not to wait for it’s release on D+
  16. I know they had the Tomahawk and Phalanx at hobbysearch earlier this week, you could check there. I’d love to see a spartan, but I’m sort of hoping max factory gets that one. Since Hasegawa, Wave and Max Factory are all doing 1/72 classic Macross I personally think Max factory would be the best choice for a Spartan in 1/72 that not only would look like the anime but also have good articulation. I appreciate Hasegawa for their recent Regults, but they do feel a little awkward stability wise and they definitely leave areas where more work is necessary like drilling holes and scribing panel lines that were so shallow that they sometimes don’t exist near the edge of parts. Wave focused really well in the looks department, but the knees could easily have been designed for better bends on their three destroids. I was thinking that I don’t remember seeing plans for the Spartan from wave back in the day, but I do remember a 1/100 Monster that looked like it would have been pretty great in the looks department. I think the weight may have been an issue for the polycaps, but many kit companies have found great ways to have tougher joints for kits since then.
  17. I’ve been rewatching both Futurama and Venture Bros. So glad both shows are coming back. It’s weird that these two old shows are so much more entertaining than anything new these days
  18. Looks like it’s really coming along.
  19. As long as it’s not marketed as an official product, I’m ok with emulating games after a time, especially if they’re un available.
  20. I might have to check it out. Reminds me of AI crossed with blade runner and some Terminator for a bit of spice
  21. I saw futureman and had a lot of fun with that one. I didn’t realize he was the guy in hunger games
  22. judging by pictures it looks like the pro modeler for the package just did it as a sub assembly, painted them and then put the wings and everything together. There’s a seam showing at the sides in fron of the wings that I don’t know if it’s ugly or not. But I think they just did a lazy method. I can’t decide if it’s something that would bug me or not. I’ll probably do a test fit to see how it looks and maybe decide after checking out the battroid images to see if it’s a consistent seam there
  23. That 1/144 led mirage is looking really good
  24. That’s a really great display. I really love these little kits
