  1. Was that the new daredevil preview?
  2. The marking designs on the rg look interesting, but I hope a waterslide set comes out soon. Those stickers look a funky on the curved surfaces.
  3. Acid rain has some mecha stuff, so will the mospeada b2five line have some in the near future? Maybe even enemy types? Some of them wouldn’t be too large and may still be very affordable.
  4. Cats and kits go hand in hand. Maybe that’s where the name for the candy came from.
  5. I’m definitely curious about the modernist kits. They look ok so far, but I want to see them in color. The hard plastic covers for the joints are at least sculpted well. And I’m glad they decided to start with a couple items most companies ignore
  6. I used to watch Black Sheep Squadron a lot as a kid. They weren’t the original run, but the syndicated repeats. It was before cable or internet streaming, so there weren’t too many options for tv on the weekends. I think it came on early Sundays when I was watching it and really liked it as a kid. And yeah that opening was unforgettable.
  7. That’s probably the best looking Cable action figure that has ever been made.
  8. Is there info for the b2 five items. Are they action figures or kits and how big are they and are they transformable?
  9. The new pictures look great. The legs look like they have a bit more clearance for posing around the waist armor to allow the hip joint to move upward. I still also want the hover bike to go with this at some point. I hope one gets made.
  10. I’ve never painted a real grade. But my issue isn’t the color, but the design. If a hg comes out it will probably look more like the one from the show. The rg tallgeese 3 seemed great at looking like it was from the show. The only down side was that there were no water slide decals. I guess it’s that it’s a mold for ew on the tallgeese 1 just colored like the tv version.
  11. Pretty sure actually. They seem to be doing a lot of hg wing kits from the series lately. They did both wing versions, the sandrock, the Leo and even the maganac. So I’m pretty sure that a suit that’s as popular as the tallgeese that it will happen. There’s also room to milk the mold and Bandai loves to do that whenever they can. They did quite a few variations of the Leo and an insane amount of maganac variations about 40 of them. So if all they gotta do is change the head on the first 2 types I can’t see them passing up the chance.
  12. I’m not sure if I should get that or wait for a hg kit. The recent hg kits have been nice. I guess I’m torn between the detail as a compromise to the accuracy of the tv version. The Leo was fun and I think hg of the tallgeese would be good as well.
  13. I think that garage kit needs a sandwich or two. But I do agree on the legs. Looking at the design of the hg I think the could get away wit changing just the sidings and maybe the front piece of the lower legs. And to be honest I expect that to happen as either a web exclusive or build fighter or something similar. I would also expect a garage kit company would do a simple conversion Incase that doesn’t happen.
  14. Sorry I miss spoke. This hg kit would be the second redesign, or third design overall. The sd versions of Hathaway’s flash had a redesign that the sd versions were based on. This one is closer to the sd redesign but with some similarities to the original and a bit of the recent Gustav Karl mixed in. I haven’t seen the full mobile suit redesign for the anime, but I’m guessing this hg will be what’s animated. I’m hoping they do a version in the near future with the sd style legs though, even if it’s a web exclusive.
  15. I didn’t know there were books, but I love the show and can’t wait for the new season or cartoon
  16. Honestly, I don’t know if they messed up the messer legs at all. The preview I saw only shows the upper body. They’re probably a redesign for the anime. It’s kind of between the original design and the updated design. So I guess this would be a third redesign. Although I do prefer the wider legs on the second version. Who knows it wouldn’t take much for Bandai to milk this and give the other version as a web exclusive. As far as the wodom, I’ll wait for the turn A version. Seriously never thought that that design would ever get made into a non resin kit. I’m not even sure if there was a resin kit.
  17. There’s a lot of kits from Bandai coming and I’m gonna be so far behind. But the deluxe version is a must have
  18. I felt that way about the first few episodes as well. Hopefully armor is useful in season 2 instead of just cheap aluminum foil. And hopefully the flashbacks are gone or at least better explained.
  19. Your work definitely payed off.
  20. Its been a while since I’ve posted anything since I don’t really have a good work space currently. But I was really curious about the upcoming 1/35 Obsolete kits coming in I think may. So I bought the basic frame kit with the February hobby Japan issue to see what the base kit is like. It’s very small, but has a large range of motion for its size. There are some missing details probably due to the fact that it’s supposed to be a base kit with armor added over it. The pilot has some odd seam lines on her back, but I don’t think that will be a problem.
  21. Really nice work there. I built one a while back straight out of box and thought about modding the hips. But trying to fit and line up parts and remove seam lines was so frustrating. I’m really glad to see someone turn it into a real display piece.
  22. It’s the same sort of issue I have with Wakanda. All that tech like space ships and beam weapons and tanks and whatever else you could imagine. But they still choose to fight riding animals and throwing spears. I guess you have to sometimes ignore logic and just check your brain at the door and have fun. There are many other examples of this to varying degrees all over sci-fi
  23. For anyone worried about lacquer painting, test it first on the runner and make sure you have protection. A breathing mask with filters and a simple set of goggles don’t cost that much. And if you’re inside there are some cheap paint booths with lighting and simple filtration set ups. The only issue for me is the paint cost is a bit higher than other alternatives. But they go on so smooth and dry really fast and are really tough. I’ve used acrylic and enamel paints in the past and really only use them now for small details. But I’ve actually been hearing about some people brush painting the small details with lacquers using a retarder to allow for self leveling. There are so many tricks I wanna try when I get my painting space in the garage set up.
