  1. Maybe smoother hair and slightly shorter arms. Looking good so far though
  2. As far as Netflix, they definitely still are the biggest of the streaming services even after the amount of recent cancelled subscriptions. The thing they need are better written shows and some recent films for the price. The films are theatre rejects and the majority of the shows are trash. They still have stranger things and a few other shows that haven’t ended, but even the existing ones like the Witcher kinda feel like they had just had a visit to the vet and are currently wearing the cone of shame. They really need some good quality ideas to justify that price hike. HBO max on the other hand has some really high quality stuff and real movies being added regularly and D + has the geeks and kids covered. Netflix needs some real winners and I don’t have my hopes too high for resident evil, but if everyone says it’s actually good, I’ll check it out
  3. I still need to watch season 2
  4. I kinda wish that that heavy gear thing ended up a bit bigger. The game wasn’t bad and the show wasn’t bad, just wish it got more of a chance and kinda liked the designs as well
  5. The stealth ones are black, so you accidentally shoot it’s shadow
  6. Maybe it will come up as a moderoid. There’s been some interesting surprises lately. Everything from Patlabor to Robocop, madox to brain powered, Escaflowne to Aliens and a lot of other cool stuff. It may be a stretch, but someone over there is picking some interesting franchises from the 80’s and 90’s, so it’s definitely possible that they could take what they already designed and rework it for the kits
  7. I get the feeling some one that works high up at good smile loves great robots and mecha and really doesn’t care if the design or show was super popular and just wants a model kit one way or the other.
  8. All these gundam releases seem really dull compared to the upcoming stuff from MaxFactory and Goodsmile
  9. Those little guys are really nice
  10. They do the best they can. The 1/60 toys usually look better in fighter and the Bandai ones in hmr and dx look a bit better in battroid, but they still don’t get quite there, the dx toys look a bit boxy to me. It always seems like there’s a compromise in the looks between either having a great fighter mode or a great battroid mode and the transformation gimmick never gets both right due mostly to old style hand drawn anime. That’s the main reason I would prefer the idea of separate kits for all 3 modes. The hasegawa 1/72 did a good job, but they were trying to be more realistic and consistent between the modes and I think the battroid could have been better. Max factory seems to love anime robots and I think if they do a battroid it will at least look cool, as far as articulation, who knows.
  11. It’s up for preorder for those interested. I’m gonna wait and see on this one. The description mentions stickers and that’s a big downside for me. But I’ll see how the reviews go
  12. I honestly don’t think the vf1 is the best subject for a transforming kit. There’s too many compromises that have to be made. I’d be far happier with really great kits of all 3 modes sold separately or as a pack. although if someone could prove me wrong and make a perfect transformation kit with perfect looks, I’d be interested
  13. I’m very curious about a potential battroid mode. If they can do a more pose able Ann’s better looking one than hasegawa, then I’m all in. A gerwalk would also be highly appreciated. not saying hasegawa is bad, just a bit outdated and the battroid could use some work. They really did a great job of looking very consistent between fighter and battroid, but the realism sacrificed articulation and ease of build. The anime lacks realism and the way Bandai did the hmr wings on the later vf1 was more anime accurate and added to the articulation around the hip in a much more natural way. I really can’t wait to see how their line turns out or if this is just a one off.
  14. Brain powered is nice especially since it’s more than just the main unit, and they also already did Escaflowne. Maybe new gasaraki kits sometime soon
  15. That skull 0 looks a bit low tech compared to the other Valkyries that Roy used
  16. I would hope there’s more. It may not have been the best main story, but probably the best origin story ever and after the end credits, I’m very interested in the thirds origin. Like if it was so traumatic that the second happened, what kind of horrible events brought the third into existence.
  17. I’d love a heavy metal show. The first movie was so good and cheesy and fun
  18. I still haven’t watched much of the old show. When I had cable there was an hbo preview weekend that had the first season and a bunch of co workers were further along telling me I needed to see it . Watched a couple episodes and thought it was more like renaissance themed porn. My coworkers told me it gets better in the next season. Then everyone was saying the last season was crap and ruined the show entirely and that’s all they would say. Now I have hbo max and still haven’t watched it. I guess it’s tough for me to try a show that started out bad and everyone says ends bad
  19. Looks good with that 1a head
  20. I don’t think you really need a lot as far as painting skills on this one. Most of the parts are pre colored and pre painted. And there are decals for the rest. You could get away with a slapping it together and maybe just do some very basic weathering.
  21. Is it like a forced perspective project ?
  22. I’m so far in my backlog that I haven’t done much with my ed 209. So far it’s the biggest moderoid box that I have and completely dwarfs any of my obsolete kits
