  1. That was still significantly better than Rings of Power
  2. That hguc kit is an odd one. It’s a great kit until you get to those why Bandai why moments. The biggest why moment on that kit were the feet. They put odd details, but sunk them in and there’s massive distracting gaps around the bottom of them. If they had just done a simple two part construction, it would have solved that issue. as far as hands, I can’t say they’ve always sucked, there was a time back when the 0083 hguc gm kits came out that they had amazing full hand sets included. They had closed fist, grabby, trigger finger ones and open palm hands all included. But a lot of newer ones are terrible. Even designed weird. Like the palm part on holding hands end up on the outside of the handle. The most recent Bandai kit that I was cleaning up surprised me with sculpt, but still kinda disappointed. It’s the new Dunbine Hg kit. The fingers have really amazing sculpted details that blew me away. But you only get two sets. One open expressive set and one holing set. No closed fists and the grabby ones aren’t tilted forward or anything for great sword poses. Other kits like the hguc revive zeta only goes the grabby hands and nothing else. If you want hand options or decals, that’s all added charges with most kits the jegan kits all look great, but need extra hands and the option sets don’t even match the included ones. I Don’t hate Bandai, but I definitely think there a lot of odd decisions and I also don’t think there’s anything wrong with a simple build every now and then. There’s a different kind of satisfaction when you get a quick build low frustration build done than a closed every gap and sanded for hours or days till things seem right kinda build. And I think that people that enjoy those quick builds shouldn’t be ashamed of them either. I love seeing everyone’s builds wether they’ve spent a little or maximum effort, as long as their proud of it
  3. This may end up confusing colors for us kit builders. The book is a blueish gray and then it becomes greenish by the new version
  4. There is kind of an odd satisfaction with a simple build though. Although even with something like a fully colored no seam lines real grade, I still like to add a little flavor with decals and weathering and such. And I guess you kill the value a bit when you have to hunt down decals and pay extra for them. The other issue is that for these kinds of builds is that they usually have to change the design from its line art or anime appearance. I never liked the Sazabi mg ver ka kit that everyone else seems to love since it really doesn’t look like the design I loved to begin with.
  5. Looks like it could be fun, but I’ll probably wait to hear if it’s any good, but it’s probably gonna be far better than Rings of Power
  6. The regult actually has very innovative articulation and Bandai would still have seams on those parts. Bandai is good at gundam, but those designs are basically made to be toys. They have very squared and simple surfaces. Something like the recent G-Line hg kit had no seams at all. But even their new YF-21 and hg Dunbine kit have them. If Bandai made the Queadluun Rau it would still have seams in similar spots. Bandai kits are easier to pop out of the sprues, but the softer plastics from the other companies are easier to clean up.
  7. Definitely getting this one
  8. Yeah, but wave already did the three that used those legs rather well in 1/72. They just skipped the spartan possibly for that reason. I wouldn’t mind seeing them do the spartan though and honestly it would probably be great no matter if it were Max Factory, Hasegawa or Wave. A monster would be interesting, but my personal problem is space if they did 1/72
  9. It’ll probably be disappointing like all his other non zombie stuff
  10. What’s the difference 84 theatrical release format and the 2016 complete version?
  11. At least if the other variants are web exclusive, they’ll include the dang decals
  12. Does it have head squishies?
  13. I get what you’re saying. It’s honestly a crappy idea. This is one of those figures that would actually sell well with out needing a kickstarter. I honestly think kickstarter should only be used for new companies putting up a lot of risk to get started or for projects that are a riskier sell.
  14. There was a lot on that list of items upcoming. I doubt we’ll hear anything before Christmas. Although I’d be really happy if I were wrong about that
  15. Truthful Time Ghost sounds like an entertaining movie, but I’m absolutely burned out on time travel multiverse movies.
  16. I just checked Hobby search and their prices on the Queadluun Rau kits are both $35 each. Those kits are so large with a lot of plastic and huge boxes. They’re definitely great for the builders that are low on cash and want an impressively detailed kit at a big size
  17. I mainly remember her because her death showed that for all the flaws of this series that lightsaber stab wounds should always be a fatality and nobody in this show got up in the next scene after a stabby stab stab.
  18. She was pretty bad as well. OSHA was going through a lot of trauma and all Jekki could think about was getting some and leaving her quick because she doesn’t do emotional attachment. She was scum and it was a good thing she got triple tapped
  19. Their engineering on their newer kits are getting far better than they used to be as well. They’re really impressive kits these days
  20. The first half of the show was Sol antagonizing the situation. He’s still an antagonist. Smilo may have been more in the shadows in the first half, but at the second half of the series he was definitely a protagonist.
  21. That’s defining the Jedi and especially Sol. He’s the adversary. His actions led to everything from the start and constantly antagonizes the situation by his lies and his constant stalling to reveal the truth and he’s also antagonizing the audience by playing on their frustrations at the show itself. Smilo fits into your protagonist description pretty well because he helps drive the story forward especially when he teams up with OSHA. They end Sols constant antagonism in a pretty epic way in comparison to the rest of the show. Definitely can’t disagree here though. They’re all basically two sides of the same butt hole
