  1. I've been watching Giant Gorg on Crunchyroll for the last few weeks and am a bit over half done. It has a mix of a kids feel like Scooby Doo but with people getting shot in the face and a giant robot buddy. I love this show. It has that nice hand drawn look with beautiful hand painted backgrounds. I think it's 80s anime at it's best.
  2. I feel the same. It was a good movie and worth watching, but it could have been a far better and more interesting film. It's definitely the best of the prequels by far.
  3. Zaku kits are probably the subject I have done the most over the years. They aren't my absolute favorite, but I do love them and most of the variations and the kits are usually easy to get. I do have a lot of gundam and various gm kits, but my enemy type kits outweigh the amount of friendly kits. Any way cap, the above zaku is just the little real grade 1/144 kit.
  4. It was a quick finish on the rg Char zaku. No paint, just a gloss coat the the after market waterslides then dull coat on the non clear parts then a raw umber oil wash and another dull coat over that. The lenses for the eye had tamiya clear red and the inside was alclaid chrome to give a lighting effect.
  5. Assault suit Leynos. Had to smooth the white after airbrushing, but a fun buid. I was trying to capture the in game color scheme rather than the all tan artwork.
  6. One of the booths at the macross world con this a couple months ago had that monster on display, but not for sale at an affordable price. I really wanted it, but I could have bought another hmr monster for the price.
  7. I liked the movie, but it did feel a bit unnecessary. I liked the K2SO and actually thought he had the most developed back story. The main characters were a bit dull even for a Star Wars film. I also thought the main plot was over simplified. I am being a bit nit picky and really recomend the movie to any one with an interest in the franchise.

    Can't wait for the spartan. I'd been seeing the release info on other sites and been super excited and getting ready for that preorder.
  9. They just keep making more and more cloud figures and the price gets higher and higher every time. My old one came with the bike and costs about the same same, but the details are getting better. I still haven't bought any of the figures in years due to the price.
  10. I think there are someeople who would be willing to pay a bit bit of real cash for that item. It's definitely a classic.
  11. It was definitely the best of the DC franchise, but I hope they learn from those mistakes and do a better job with the story. I think the like ability of the characters may have been what saved the first one for me. So far the DC films have had dull stories and mostly dislikable characters. I did like suicide squad and really hope they can start making overall better films in the future.

    That kangaroo looked so confused after that dude punched it🤕
  13. Maybe I'm mistaken, but didn't the ships have energy weapons as well as hard point and missiles. It's been a while since they had a ship to ship battle.
  14. Wasn't aoe the one that tried to justify sex with a minor. I never saw the film, but I did see the honest trailer for it and it seemed like a very creepy scene for a kids movie or any movie.
  15. As I mentioned above I wasn't convinced on the look of the hg covers until I looked at the manga and even anime for thunderbolt. Those joint gaps are actually drawn in every panel or scene no matter the position of the joints. It's almost like it's supposed to be somehow scrunched into the joints gaps.
  16. Those covers are really ugly on the mg kit. They look more like garbag bags. The ones for the cables look like they were made too loose. I was a bit against the molded joints on the hg version until I started looking at the manga images and realized they were spot on perfect.
  17. My friends say target and some smaller toy stores have had them.
  18. I may have mentioned how much I would like a hg galbaldy before, but with all the revives and redos and the upcoming barzam, it really is giving me hope that sometime soon they will finally do a galbaldy.
  19. The hg Gabthley is one of my favorite looking kits. It's definitely more of a looks over articulation item, but it makes a great display set.
  20. I personally only like lacquer hobby primers, like me surfacer or model master lacquer system.
  21. I finally finished off Luke Cage. I don't think it was as good as the other marvel Netflix shows, but it was still worth watching. I really like how the bad guys in all these shows get so much characterization that you almost feel bad for their situation. I wish the films from Marvel and DC would have antagonists as interesting as these. I think the only complaint I have about this show may be the history lessons from Luke Cage. It made it feel more like an afternoon 80's kids show, rather than an adult oriented comic based series. I did really like how they try to have glimpses of old school costume appearances in these shows.

    I like the thread as is. It makes it easier to get info on upcoming releases and where to find open preorders. Currently there are only vf1 recolors with different heads or accessories, 2 enemy units and one destroid. The non macross series hmr has its own thread in the sci-fi anime area. Maybe when things move along further and teasers turn into preorders, we could do old school Macross hmr, Macross 2 hmr, plus, frontier and whatever. But I'm completely happy with it as is.
