  1. Nuke it from orbit...it's the only way to be sure:
  2. Great... Masters of the Universe: The Skylanders Edition...
  3. Yeah... in retrospect, perhaps someone should have screened whomever was going to provide emotional data via a psych evaluation, although no one knew that Marj "I'm gonna go skydiving off the Macross without my parachute" Gueldoa was planning to try to make Sharon autonomous. At least they didn't use HIS emotional data for her! If he wanted something "truly unpredictable", he should have befriended Basara Nekki and then tried keeping track of his whereabouts!
  4. Then here's a suggestion: 1) find Macross (or whichever of the series you haven't watched) on a streaming site, pap per view, DVD, etc. 2) Watch the series and take notes. 3) Come to your own conclusions and post those on your site.
  5. Okay. On that note: some some odd reason I thought I was talking with Peter! lol Been a long week!
  6. Probably at the ER getting bandaged up....
  7. I think that says a great deal about the potential damage and casualties fully autonomous fighters could cause in given circumstances. They don't have the same discernment a human being would, and I also imagine that it would be too easy for the fighter to get into a situation where command override by base may not be available/ be offline.
  8. Well, one thing I would do with that kit is a light sanding with maybe 250 -400 grit sandpaper of the grid on the upper saucer. Not remove it, but to knock down some of the "puffiness" that looks to be present around the grid lines (being careful of the phasers, of course!).
  9. I'd take The Red Baron (Snoopy's foe) over Messer anyday. Heck, even the three spies aboard the SDF-1 would be preferable.
  10. Wow...looks like the barrels broke. I'm so sorry. Can you reglue them? UPDATE: the elevator for my Transformers Activity Center pretty much ate itself the other day when i tried putting in new plexiglass, and upon testing it, the car's support system shattered, the line snapped and the top of the shaft gave way. So... this is what I am doing now: 1) rebuilt the shaft (no pics yet due to folks not being able to tell what the mess is supposed to look like! lol 2) Built an all-new elevator car using cardboard, styrene and plexi. The top is reinforced so the disaster from the last time won't happen again, And... 3) I'm installing an electric motor along with a DPDT switch, to allow one button on a rocker to bring the elevator up or down. This project will be the first time I've ever done wall current, so I contacted some expert help to ensure I don't burn my base down, torch my collection and possibly fry myself (extra crispy recipe.)_ We'll see how all of this goes; it's had it's ups and downs. Stay tuned folks...
  11. Evangelion lost me after watching the "end" of the original series, and I could never get back into it even with all the "rebuilds" and whatnot. All I can imagine is at some point, Shinji becoming a psychotic mass murderer due to all the mind-screwing he's endured, combined with his own inherent faults. Asuka...not much I can say other than "run away screaming", Gendo came across to me as just human garbage that really needed a bomb to the gourd, and the rest of the cast...erm... ... I'll be over at the concession stand.
  12. They should match; I'm working from multiple pics of this part. Latest pics: I decided to define the indent at the end a little better, and clear coated it one more time for good measure. I also took the time to compare with other pics of the VF-19F's head online, to check the part and how it would attach.
  13. I think perhaps then that the best way to do Dune is as a regular series on something like Netflix, where they can do all the episodes and drop them "as a book". Each season could be a "book" then, and hopefully convey the grandeur of the saga, while giving each the time it needs to work.
  14. Okay... here's the final pics on this. I did my best to get the end of it "cut-in": It's been painted and clear-coated, but I may hit it with one more shot of clear to get it to the correct shine for you. This will be on its' way on Monday, as promised.
  15. Great! I just got the last detail done and it's currently drying from the polishing and painting I did (gloss black to match the other piece you showed). Going to shoot you a PM so we can discuss details.
  16. Yeah; I just need to make sure it's the appropriate size and shape given the measurements. Sure; I just need to dremel in the indent in the front of the part. I also need to polish and paint it so it looks appropriate for your Valk. Let me show you what I have so far; I'm pretty sure the measurements you showed were the metric side of the ruler, so I used that standard. I want to make sure it's exactly what you need before I send it out, so please let me know if anything doesn't look right: In your photo, the piece was a slight tad over 1mm, so I tried to get as close a match to that in plastic thickness:
  17. I'm using black ABS plastic that I culled from an old printer.
  18. Okay, got measurements on it. Thanks; let me see what I can do with this, BTW: are you in the US or elsewhere?
  19. Have you ever considered the benefits of a sludge wash?
  20. Much appreciated; I just need to see how wide it is (if you can put the ruler in front of it).
  21. How big is that head? Could you put a ruler next to it?
