  1. I’ve always liked the headset idea. With the goggles down, you see what the mecha sees. And then you can easily switch sites, although the process is over complicated it still looks cool.
  2. Definitely not. The animation looked really bad
  3. I liked watchmen, but the dc films were trash. Army of the dead was fun for what it was , but hated sucker punch. I liked 300 the first time I saw it, but it’s one of those that after each time I’ve seen it the less I liked it. His other zombie stuff just didn’t quite hit the mark.
  4. The blue ones are already included, the red are an extra
  5. Add on is for this kit. There is also the blue one, but I think that in the add ons for it. The red one seems to be sold separately
  6. It seems to have been a flop all around. Haven’t seen it and don’t know anyone that went to the movies this past weekend. Most people around here were getting ready for the storm, going to the store or prepping their homes and in some cases under mandatory evacuation. Luckily everyone we know ended up well. Although it does seem to have put a significant dent in the box office, but I don’t think the west coast alone could have saved the movie from box office disaster
  7. Honestly they don’t have too many small parts. The issue I’ve had is that the transformation can be a bit fiddly and sometimes frustrating. I bought two of each so I didn’t have to worry about that though. The figures are definitely more fun on the bikes though
  8. When one of those characters gets a theme song from Ozzy, then of course he’d go from obscure occultist to super stardom
  9. Zentraedi definitely didn’t build mecha for comfort
  10. I’ll probably end up a broken record, but I still believe the best way to do things with the older designs, is just to do three separate kits. One for each mode. Tomy Tech and wave did the two kit mix and match, but then to display all modes at once you had to buy two of each kit. as far as the yf-19, the Bandai kit still is the best battroid kit and the best battroid toy would probably be the revoltech. All the toys toys have super skinny legs or low articulation. And the VF-19 kit was very floppy, but a nice try for the time
  11. I have some of the extras boxed at the moment from when we moved, but I’ll definitely take a look. It’s odd to hear that the Robotech version might actually be the better one for once
  12. It’s one of the things I don’t like about the kit. Battroid and gerwalk look pretty great, even though I don’t like the yf-19 gerwalk mode. The fighter looks clunky since they wanted to keep the legs and the connector goes in very odd for the stand. I probably will just make a better connector piece for it once it’s all finished
  13. One of mine was Japanese and the second one i opened was Robotech and both had the same issue. I kinda think the workers probably just grabbed parts to throw in the packages. And in some cases they just forgot important things like an entire front wheel
  14. I have it, and opened it, but I’ll have to find the box it’s packed in. I may have posted pictures of it here, but I’ll check a few pages back
  15. I’d be more interested if it didn’t transform personally. Partsforming would be a decent compromise though
  16. Please, no time portals or time travel of any kind or even multiverse crap. It always feels like the writers ran out of ideas and don’t know what to do
  17. I used to watch Tenchi a lot back in the 90’s to early 2000’s. Back then it felt like a very original idea, but the more additions meant lower quality and the harem newness wore off. I haven’t kept up at all and would probably be totally lost

    I transform my 1-A cannon fodder a bit and so far it’s holding up pretty well. No cracks or anything. My Yamato ones would have given up at the amount I’ve messed with this one. I don’t have too many Arcadia ones though.
  19. I’ll agree that the regult is a great kit. I’d also recommend the wave destroids especially since they’re 1/72 scale just like most of the newer kits. But I don’t think you should throw the old kits away, even though the collage would be awesome. Maybe start with a newer kit and learn a few simple things and use what you learn in an older kit. I would probably say to pick something that hasn’t been done better by a newer company. Maybe the tv sdf1 or the zentraedi power armors. When you get your skills up tackle some of those. They’re a lot of work, but you’ll be more proud if you can turn those into treasures.
