  1. That would make sense, and HG won't do it. They have so little interest in reviving it (not to mention zero ability/ desire to invest any serious money into it) that it's guaranteed dead. When they tried to launch Shadow Chronicles, they played it cheap there, and with the Titan comics (and other comic book companies they ever used), paid low and from what I recall, even rooked them.
  2. Yeah, I call BS on them using that, being particularly familiar with Gallium's properties. It melts aluminum just by being placed on it, and reacts to a lesser extent with other metals. They may as well use peanut butter for all the good it would do.
  3. You can also try using hair spray; simply spray it where you want paint to not stick, paint your model, then a damp cloth to rub it away.
  4. Wow, I'm amazed they included his "crispy" head!!! O.o Guess ol' Pete better head back to Witch Mountain (IYKYK)...
  5. So, the figures are about 4 inch (same size as the ones I'm working on).
  6. I can't; this is a birthday gift for my friend of 30 years (he always wanted a G1 Jetfire but could never afford it). I got it off of ebay but could not locate a replacement arm.
  7. Thanks! Now I just need a left arm for a G1 Jetfire! (I get all the luck, don't I? 🤣 )
  8. Looks like someone beat me to the punch... this is why I was building the 3 3/4 inch figs. >_>
  9. Sounds like they slid backwards, not made any improvements! O.o Not a good optic for a tech company...
  10. A trick I use is to soften the tires slightly with heat, then press then onto a hard surface so you also get the "bulge" of them under weight. Get a feel for it though before committing by using spare wheels; too much too fast and it looks like a pizza that Walter White yeeted onto the family home's roof! O.o
  11. Your thread is in another castle...
  12. Right? At the rate they're going with sound and music, the next thing you know, a bunch of drunk NUNS pilots will be using beer farts as a weapon! O,O
  13. Just finished a side project: Backdrop artwork:
  14. To put the landing gear "up", I would most likely use sheet styrene and make one piece to fill the space for the doors, then scribe the panel lines on them. Might need to "roll" the panels a little to make them fit, but it would be better in my mind than trying to glue individual panels together. Right? I'd like to get a 1/48 battroid sometime!
  15. Yeah, it is a bit tiny compared even to the '14: Even worse on top of a VF-0:
  16. I like big bots and I cannot lie...
  17. Solved. Meantime, next project: Clue:
  18. Thanks! Ultimately planning on making Boldoza, Quamzin Kravshera ("Khyron" for those only familiar with RT) and perhaps expanding the bridge. Would also like to make Claudia and the Bridge Bunnies (to finish out my 4-inch "miclone" series, and the SDF-1 Main Bridge for them to "man". (and the lower Bridge display/ "stage" that Minmay used in DYRL) Nice!! Do you plan on getting Magnus, Kup and Blurr as well? That would rock!
  19. Jonny Quest Dragonfly Supersonic Transport: This was a royal pain to paint freehand (not happy with it; inaccurate, but the best I can so nowadays): nose and aft: Scale compared to spray can and ruler:
  20. This is why I insist on physical media (books, cd and cassette). If I pay for it, it's mine.
  21. I'm so sorry MT; I know how much this hurts.
