    It’s not looking too bad

    My daughter had read them back in high school, she said they were weirder and more brutal. Personally I didn’t really get into the idea of the series. I guess the idea of having kids fight to the death on tv seemed like something I don’t think a large majority of people could get into. Maybe adults. The movies kinda had a weird cheap made for tv kinda feel and I think that’s why it just wasn’t for me. I still took her to go see all of the films since her and her friends were all into it. Battle Royale at least felt like a punishment for terrible kids or at least one that seemed like delinquents to the public and was just so ridiculous that it didn’t need a reason. It was kinda squid game before squid game and a bit of Hunger Games before Hunger Games. Not trying to say these ideas were brand new, there’ve been stories like that since Running Man or the prisoner or even the most dangerous game.

    I see what you mean by the colors. I’m still not buying it, but just that choice of color is a vast improvement to the look

    The best episode was the one with Gwar. I was laughing when they fed him to the worm. I really didn’t much care for his show, but in the age before streaming or even dvr, what else was there to watch at that time. It was that or soap operas

    They have been running an American site similar to hlj. Things like preorders usually pop up a few hours later, I haven’t bought any gundam related stuff, but have gotten a few other Bandai items like kits and Macross toys here and there.

    Other than U.S. stores, have they sold out at other Japanese sites? Maybe check amiami I think I saw it on sale at either Usags or newtype USA for the American sites, but might be thinking of a different zeta

    Same. I figure, there’s no reason, unless I decide to cancel……

    But, is it a good story? And will it have home on the title?

    That’s an odd one for sure. It took me a minute to realize the legs were coming out of the thrusters

    Most of the Japanese sites sold out on the Guts and Griffith figures, but as I expected the U.S. sites have them and at a bit of an up charge. The Bbts price is $99.99 for Guts and Griffith is $144.99. I want the figures, but I’ll wait and see if there’s a better deal first

    I wouldn’t mind seeing pics of your progress. Maybe post some in the workbench section if you haven’t already

    I just kinda feel a bit let down, even by the Keaton scene. The let’s get nuts scene was such a classic moment and now it’s like just a catchphrase.

    Does the scout have Grogu punching action, because that would be an instabuy if it did

    I prefer all at once, or a short break. The weekly thing does make it more of an event for great shows, but in the less than great ones, I’d rather just get it over with before I lose interest. I probably would’ve been more interested if this show still had the energy of season 1, but the second season wasn’t as good and the prequel thing was kinda just ok. I wouldn’t mind being surprised by a great new season though

    I kinda slowly checked out of Star Trek after tng, so these actually look really good in comparison to other figures from other companies in a similar size. I’m actually really tempted on these

    The more I see of this in previews, the less interested I am about it. It looks like they’re mostly using time travel to try and undo things in the Snyderverse movies rather than try to do something new.

    I’m not really a Star Trek guy, but that Picard face looks great

    I have a feeling that the boomerang unit is coming soon

    Probably hard to get from Japanese sites, but like all the other releases, easy to get from a U.S. site. Just you have to pay the ease of preorder taxes

    Take it easy and get well soon

    It’s just their love child from after the last movie

    Could enamel paint work in a similar way that people were doing the sleeves on the sinanju and geara Zulu kits from gundam unicorn. Basically paint a main color, then the other color in enamel and wipe away the enamel from parts that aren’t desired in that color

    Don’t cut yourself short. Frustration and questioning your own abilities are a sure sign of being a “real modeler”. Sometimes you have to put things aside for a short time and compose yourself and often a solution will come. I know things for you are tough and may be getting tougher, but I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one that has confidence that you’re still able to turn out a great project here and there.

    Nice job on that one I feel like a lot of people get that way nowadays. Some kits need a lot more work than others for sure, but I think the key is not to be afraid to try and put some effort and a bit of sweat and the reward is something to really be proud of.
