  1. Is it a model kit or a transformable toy? Sorry to ask, but i can discern the plastic from that info.
  2. I really appreciate that your group is translating this stuff; on that note, it's a good thing you folks picked up on those errors!
  3. Good call; money is hard enough to come by without some rip-off laying in wait for people to burn. I once ordered a V1.0 1/60 Yamato VF-1 and got burned on ebay. I couldn't challenge it because I ordered it on my friend's computer (I didn't have one at the time) and his PC crashed. All my stuff (including ebay purchase poof) was lost, ebay sided with the seller. This was back in the early '00's, so no chance of ever seeing it. Would have been nice to have a Yammie. Anyhoo: yeah, looks like these clowns aren't trustworthy Thom.
  4. Okay, while I'm working on piecing together my latest self-designed valk, my wife found one of those wooden cigar boxes at a place she shops at: As you can see, it was pretty beat up. But It looked like a good candidate for a storage container for my valk part (alt nose and other stuff for my 1/72 models). So.... Of course, couldn't forget to do the original signage on the can with the "yo!" And plenty of room inside, plus more if needed;
  5. Otherwise known as "achoo" camo (gesundheit).
  6. Finally, some pics of my newest in progress: Yeah...it's a bit of a mess right now: I'm still in the "how the heck is this supposed to work" phase of designing this one out. The cockpit/ front body in white is not staying in that particular config for long; I just need to add more plastic as I build this. At this stage, the parts are merely "forms" that I am using for primary building blocks to establish the basic transform. Once the transform is assembled and tested, then it's on to adding plastic, details and grinding parts to shape. And I plan on this one being a real doozy... Stay tuned folks...
  7. Thanks for the clarification; sometimes I don't perceive things correctly. At this point, the Protoculture strongly remind me of John Hammond from Jurassic Park; too bad Ian Malcom wasn't there to tell them: "If I may... Um, I'll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you're using here, it didn't require any discipline to attain it. You read what others had done and you took the next step. You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don't take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could, and before you even knew what you had, you patented it, and packaged it, and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox.." " Don't you see the danger, John, inherent in what you're doing here? Genetic power is the most awesome force the planet's ever seen, but you wield it like a kid that's found his dad's gun." "Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, that they didn't stop to think if they should." Maybe the part about "not earning it for themselves" might not be accurate, but I feel the rest is.
  8. Love the job you did on Prowl! All you need is some decals and a copy of Inner Circle's "bad Boys" and you're good to go!
  9. Derex, no offense bro... but either you mean milimeters or that's one pretty hefty saucah!!!
  10. While they're at it, they should reissue the Macross as well.
  11. Planning out my next project: another transforming fighter design. This time around, it's one of several stealth fighter designs developed in an inter-fleet contest in the campaign me and some friends were role-playing in Macross. I'll try to get some pics in a little bit: my camera is in the other room and I ache (old injuries) too much to go grab it at the moment.
  12. Maybe you could post it in the workshop thread?
  13. Planning on watching New Mobile Report Gundam Wing; really liked the series but missed a few episodes (around time when Trowa lost his memory).
  14. You and I both, my friend. And if you were to ask Basara, he wouldn't care anyways.
  15. 1/60 VF-1S Roy w/ super/strike pack 1/60 VF-1J Hikaru 1/60 VF-1A Jenius 1/3000 TV SDF-1 1/6 Roy figure 1/6 Hikaru figure 1/6 Jenius figure 1/6 Misa figure 1/6 Global figure 1/6 Bridge Bunnies (essentially, the capability to set up flight, cockpit and bridge dioramas) And of course, 1/60 glaugs
  16. Well, I took one of your shots and threw it into photoshop: Maybe a bit too dark on my part, but I at least got a glowy effect for ya! :D
