  1. Ah; for some reason, I missed that detail!! Thanks for filling me in on that!
  2. Yeah; lately, they've had packages I've ordered go to the wrong places, get delayed ridiculously late, and have argued with me over the phone that I "should not expect the package to arrive when their system tells me via informed delivery." When I questioned the agent on the "logic" of that kind of thinking, the agent hung up on me. No wonder the Postmaster General resigned a few days ago: https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/postmaster-general-louis-dejoy-resigns-after-5-years-120114087 Anyways, hoping you and the rest of the gang here who ordered this get it soon! I know I hate waiting for stuff! 😠
  3. @Shawn Thank you for taking care if that; I was honestly worried when the forums were unreachable (google said it literally couldn't find MacrossWorld!), and wass greatly relieved to see the "work in progress" page come up later! BTW: Did Imai ever issue the VT-1 valk kit (saw the pic you had on the WIP page)? If not, I'll have to find a regular VF kit and do some mods!
  4. And she's supposed to be one of the leaders of the Rebellion? Are we sure she isn't related to a stormtrooper or something (she can't seem to hit her targets either)?
  5. Hope to be back to posting about my projects soon, folks. Healing is taking a long, painful time right now.
  6. Frank Agrama passed away April 25th, 2023; his daughter Jehan now controls HG.
  7. Closest thing I could find to an "explanation" was here (and it doesn't explain any difference really): https://tfwiki.net/wiki/The_Transformers:_MPG
  8. Meh; last few times I tried that, it sat there for over a year with no replies. I'll just see about 3D printing it or maybe making a hook for it.
  9. Well, I'm using Win10 Pro on a Dell 3020 SFF (Intel Core i5 4590 @ 3.30GH) with 16Gb RAM, NVIDIA GeForce ( Gigabyte) GT1030 (2GBVRAM) and an 223GB SSD. Looks like I'm not doing much to upgrade to anything for the next 3 millennia. Sad to say: Win 11 isn't in my future anytime soon.
  10. I have to agree; while RT opened the door for many fans, it's done now. Macross is pretty much the only part of RT most liked anyways; it always felt instead of advancing that man got worse and worse in all ways in the RT overall story arc anyhow. The tech got worse and civilization pretty well crumbled until people were living in hovels under the Invid. In Macross, man actually improved (colony fleets, slowly repairing Earth, Colonies, exploration, etc), and civilization spread. We also got better at building mecha and other stuff. *pops in M+ and sits back with some popcorn*
  11. That reminds me: I need a 1/55 hand for one of my chunky's (Jetfire); the retaining mechanism at the back broke; not the best constructed I have to say.
  12. If this had been done smartly back in the 80's, RT may have gotten a much better fan base and release. Unfortunately, when Harmony Gold is involved in anything, they seem to have the Reverse Midas Touch©™.
  13. Yeah, we were just discussing model number naming recently.
  14. *Imagines VF-11 with HUGE keg of fuel strapped to its' back*
  15. Right; at some point, all the repairs, patching and errors here and there accrue. Better just to do an entirely new install with everything done fresh and image that/ back it up. That way, you have a fresh slate just the way you want, without the hidden damage from the previous install.
  16. I'd like to see one of those painted like:
  17. And that by necessity would also have to include more room for fuel storage, correct?
  18. Speaking of similar sounding anime: I wish they'd do a new MD Geist or something similar. I saw the original some years ago and thought it was pretty good ((if a bit gory).
  19. I consulted these images when I was building my 1/72 Armored Factory kitbash/ scratchbuild diorama!
  20. Good point on all that. Guess the Zentraedi are experts on not caring how many eggs they break to make an omelet! lol
  21. No kind of fire like "friendly fire", eh?
  22. Now, why do I have a running animation in my head of Michael Moore walking around the Achiso with a handheld camera trying to do his next "documentary", only to get stepped on by Basara's VF-19 Battroid? 🤣
