    Well, when you have Jim Carrey as Kirk, I figured what's a little non-canon?

    Don't get me started on THAT little b@$7@rd. I'd sooner see Badgey make a return.

    And her replacement...

    Maybe we'll finally get G1 Jetfire now?

    Or too much alcohol/ mind-altering substances for the designers. 🫥

    I've found leaving old decals in moderately hot water for 6-8 hours can rescue them. Then it's just a case of sliding them onto used decal paper from a fresher kit and mixing a solution of white glue and water to adhere them to the model (did that for a couple of kits recently).

    1/55's revisited

    pengbuzz replied to kanata67's topic in Toys

    Looks like they reworked the heads.

    I would recommend that whatever shade of white you paint the VF-1S, add a slight bit of pearlescent white to it to give it a slight metallic sheen, even when flat coat is applied.

    NEXT PROJECT- STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE K'TINGA CLASS BATTLECRUISER (1/537): This one literally just came in today; box was sealed in the original plastic. It's a 1984 reissue, but that makes no difference to me. The top of the main body in back is somewhat flattened out and needs some heat-reshaping, but the plastic is in excellent condition. No brittleness or cracks; it was sealed and kept out of sunlight. Decals look a little aged, but they shouldn't be too much of an issue. I know this model has some accuracy issues, but some spare styrene and a couple of modifications should resolve that nicely. As usual, I'll be doing a custom stand for this on,e as the stand kind of reminds me of a light blue Doritoâ„¢!! Stay tuned...

    Keith Richards will live to document the heat death of the universe.

    At least it isn't the old 1/650!

    Sorry the freezing idea didn't work out! When you do get the head apart though, if you dress the seam edges carefully with a needle file, it should lessen the visibility of the seam line when you reassemble it.

    Sorry, my source indicated thousands; maybe I need better sources. Seriously though: I agree that overkill by several hundred is about as bad as overkill by thousands. I guess it would just be a preference of how many smithereens you'd prefer to be in. 😛 An all hands on deck, the $#!7's about to hit the fan event. FRMville.

    The one overriding problem with a PMC vs. a Zentraedi force is that even the smaller Branch Fleets consist of thousands of ships. The larger Main Fleets are composed of millions of vessels, and all of these fleets have some pretty heavy weaponry that comes with them, both ship-mounted as well as launched mecha/ fighters (As @Seto Kaiba has pointed out in previous posts). Given that UN Spacy/ NUNS has had one hell of a time even defeating a smaller fleet in times of crisis and that most PMC's are not all that large or well-equipped as NUNS, I seriously doubt that they would do much to "hold the line" against much except a small rouge force of malcontent Zentraedi or pirates.

    Good! BTW: We've been trying to reach you about your Valkyrie's extended warranty.

    Yeah, the Glaug is really coming along nicely there, Papa Rat! What matters here the most is enjoying what you're doing; that translates into how the model comes out in my opinion. With all the grief many of mine suffer, I think they could use a drink or two! O.o

    No, I tried scratchbuilding my own some time ago, and it died. I posted it here on Macrossworld, and was quite perturbed abut it. :(

    Cat's Eye... groan.
  22. pengbuzz
    True; there's only so much of Planet Dance one can take! I loved those, especially Dynamite 7! The story and songs were really good!

    Would like to see that as well; after all, they did bother to design and build them to some degree. Admittedly, I'm getting the feeling of the "special hero group to save the day" vibe from the continual "PMC" stuff they've been doing for the past few series. It was beginning to make me feel that the regular forces were not considered to be competent to handle anything other than being "cannon-fodder". I even began feeling that way about Macross 7 with Sound Force. At least with SDFM and MII, the heroes were part of the regular UN Forces and not PMC's with mecha you wouldn't find in said forces. Maybe I'm being a bit persnickety or too narrow in my field of view here; that said, would like to see the pilots stand out in what they can do with a good mech more than seeing what the latest model can do while brewing coffee, prepping your tax returns and choosing your lunch order for ya! Yeah... I agree. That paint scheme really works on that!

    Tron v 2.0, I would say. Just like Windows versions function in a similar manner but don't necessarily look alike.
  25. pengbuzz
    *jealousy going on right here* Seriously, nice job!! I'd love to do that to a 1/55 someday! Meantime: next build coming up: Stay tuned...
