  1. Or the mother of "why you suck speeches" to all the Federation's enemies
  2. So basically: what's to prevent them from creating an army of Picards using copies of the memories and a slew of pre-built bodies. Just do a PXE-type mass install and you're good to go...
  3. And made a mess out of both in the process. If someone is going to make a movie, they need to at least act like they care about the source material . JJ did so in neither franchise.
  4. UPDATE: main body and transform progressing: The arms are not at an "ideal" spot transform wise, but this is the best I can do without ripping the whole thing to pieces and basically starting over. So, just going to incorporate them into the design in this configuration (the stealth feature on this one is an "active" type that should circumvent any issues). Aside from redoing the nose,everything else has been relatively smooth. BTW: these colors are not the final; I'm planning something else entirely. Now I need to decide on how to plan out the head turret config; also, need to add plastic to the chest: Stay tuned...
  5. Were you to present a correct one, it might have. But you picked an unstable regime that was patched after the Kaiser's defeat in WWI. That's akin to recommending using protomatter to build a table and chairs...
  6. Was wondering if perhaps you should try molding it and making a casting of it?
  7. UPDATE: Progress is slow but steady on the new transforming fighter design: Right now, I'm still piecing together the transform and how components will fit together in all 3 modes. Once that's accomplished, then it's on to refining the look of the mech in fighter, gerwalk and battroid modes. The "VF-1ness" of the nose is only temporary; I'll be redoing that as I skin the fighter and blend everything together. The arms are an undecided point, as I'm not sure right now where they will fit into the transformation scheme, let alone the joints and placement for them. Everything is rough at this point and nothing is spoken for; "skinning" is coming up once the main assemblies are finished. The head cover will be inspired by the YF-21, but I want to take it to "the next level" and really make this one something unnerving and unearthly, while trying to still keep it "UN SPACY" if you will. A bit of a balancing act... especially when stealth is a major component of this one. Stay tuned...
  8. Appreciate the compliments folks; unfortunately, having some major issues with Photoshop. So someone else is going to have to take that part on. Sorry.
  9. ROFL!!! Not to mention the Super Armor can't be used in atmosphere.
  10. I've used ToyHax/ Reprolabels; their stuff really is top quality. They're also more durable than the original stickers.
  11. Easily fixed: (Good thing I save everything in layers!)
  12. Personally, I would, as super glue tends to have very poor shear strength. Cyanoacrylates have good tensile (pull) strength, but with sideways forces, I've found pieces repaired will come right apart. I'd remove the CA and use a different glue.
  13. That's what I was thinking when I saw it!
  14. Devcon Plastic Welder should work just fine. Not only does it bond very strongly (3500 psi strength), but it comes in black and cream, and fills any gaps left behind from breakage.
  15. My vote would be Megaroad-1. Silence doesn't mean they died; for all we know, they found an entire part of the universe that radio signals don't propagate well through.
  16. Well, I ran an experiment with your model (decided to take a crack at this for ya!) and got the following:
  17. Is it a model kit or a transformable toy? Sorry to ask, but i can discern the plastic from that info.
