  1. So how is the poseability on the battroid and gerwalk.
  2. The rotten tomatoes ratings aren't for how good a movie is, but if the movie is good enough to recomend spending the cash to buy a ticket.
  3. The good reviews on this film make it sound like it's just good enough and nothing special, but still worth the cash.
  4. You better finish that Leo before bandai puts out a web exclusive
  5. My kits are all in my private warehouse for a bit longer and I'm curious on if there are any problem spots. Also curious about the decals.

    If they don't resize the pilots on the tv Valkyries those buildings may not look too bad, but would still be small looking for the type of diorama you want to do.
  7. There are basically 2 kits one for battroid and one for fighter. You can part swap to make a gerwalk using existing parts from the fighter and battroid. So you can display one gerwalk using parts from 2 kits or display a fighter and a battroid. The gerwalk pack set is just the fighter and battroid kit boxed together with extra decals.
  8. As far as sanding/polishing materials check your local hobby shops or automotive parts shops. Auto parts shops often have products for painting and polishing as well as sanding products.
  9. I was a little excited when I heard that the universal unit series2 will have a zeta gundam, then I was more excited to hear that there are 2 c plus variants and now I'm super excited about the hygog and zgock e especially since I don't remember a non deformed hygog poseable figure ever being made.
  10. I have one of those Boba Fett kits and 2 sand troopers that I ordered from Hlj just before the embargo. It looks like a fairly simple build and the grey looks like primer gray could work for most of it. Were you going to do any paint chipping on the armor?
  11. I think I saw a nendroid for her or maybe o was something similar so I wasn't too surprised.
  12. Yeah that marine really needs the revive treatment as well as the gm's from 0080
  13. I'm curious to see if a revive Gelgoog will be coming soon after seeing that pic.
  14. Well now that Tron has a ride bring on another movie.
  15. I'm glad my daughter still lives with me, because she is the worlds best missing piece finder. I've lost parts in carpet almost as small as a pencil tip and somehow she has had a perfect record of location. Glad you found your parts. It really is frustrating especially when they are right in front of you and they just somehow blend in.
  16. I've used eraser putty from General. It's a lightly sticky putty artists use for precise erasing, but I tend to use it for masking when I don't feel like cutting tape into precise shapes.
  17. It's gonna be a bit before that one gets built due to being so far behind on kits. Still got wave votoms kits in painting process a storm trooper in putty process and tomy tech valks coming and a couple gundam kits with parts trimmed out in baggies waiting for glue and putty.
  18. Sorry the first day we showed up when the showroom was closing and the next two days my daughters was rushing me around so she could see the booths with cosplay stuff so I was speed shopping. They did however have all the ims Five Star Stories kits built for display as well as a bunch of dolfie, charagumin resin figures and V Lockers toys. Though the Votoms Blue Knight kits were the ones I was really excited to see. The Volks USA website has them listed finally, but the pictures don't give you an appreciation for the size, especially for that Testa Rosa
  19. Maybe some one has the kit or even a built kit for cheap
  20. I'm not sure if this is the right place to talk about dbz kits, but I took a look at them on display at anime expo, and before seeing them up close they didn't impress me. But when I saw them there with just some dull coat I was amazed, maybe because I had no interest at first. These were the new small scale simple build hg style kits and while I don't think they will steal away sh figuarts fans they look pretty good and have an interesting way of building the face with out the need for paint. I think they only did light panel lining before top coat. The cost if I'm not mistaken was under $20, so for those that don't want to pay as much for the action figures these could be a neat option.
  21. So I went back to the Volks booth yesterday and the same guy I talked to the the day before said they sold out an hour before I got there. He said one guy bought them all. Man I was let down, but the guy at the booth was cool enough to give me a card and a discount to negate the shipping. He also said their shop was down here in Torrance and said to stop by so I may end up getting the bigger Testa Rosa since I won't have to carry that gigantic box around the expo. Maybe I will just break down and buy one of each of their Votoms kits, Zerberus vr maxima comes out next month.
  22. I probably should have tried to make it to that panel, but anyway this sounds a little like when adult swim decided we need more Big O and we did, but maybe not the way we got it. The synopsis also sounds a bit like Gurren Laggan(probably screwed up the spelling, but hopefully you get what I tried to say). It was a favorite of the time when the original came out so I hope it's good.
  23. Just got my Kylo Ren kit. All the parts are black with a few silver colored bits for the face and sabers. The light saber effect is also clear red. It has a lot of rubbery parts for the cloak and hood. Looks like a very simple build.

    Over the weekend we went through the show room at anime expo and I didn't see anyone selling hmr toys. We saw a lot of kits including the new bandai delta kits some Yamato and Arcadia toys a few robotech items and various older kits, but no hmr. They probably would have been overpriced, but I kinda wanted to see someone selling them anyway.
