    Most likely messy for the 2 Spartans.
  2. Expensive? That is ludicrous! I'd rather put the money towards Arcadia "Premium" versions instead if I was trying to avoid the extra cost by printing decals. I hope you packed that 8x13 full of decals though

    You can say it got neutered.
  5. Most of that would actually work great on transparent and white decal sheets.

    So it seems across the board so far that they messed that area up. You got it the worst so far. Again, seems like an insignificant area to worry about.

    Yeah, it was one of the first things I noticed since my HMRs are mostly pristine but didn't worry about it since it is unnoticeable unless you are inspecting the crotch closely. I like mechs, but not that much or in that way.

    Interesting. Mine seems to have some ugly mold flashing on the side like Sabuto's but I don't think it's affecting the functionality of the peg hole. Yours is completely warped so it is unusable? Either way it seems like a common "defect" in that area.
  9. Thanks! Always forget about that detail but yeah, mostly for the things I can print on transparent sheets.
  10. Speaking of waterslides and stickers, has anyone tried simply photocopying a sticker sheet onto a decal sheet to create waterslides using a good printer? I'm thinking about trying since I've had good experience with homemade waterslides. Mine are all printed from files though.

    Still need to worry about @spanner

    Nice! I just opened my Spartan last night. It's a great figure although not as refined feeling as the Dougram. Either way, I want them all!
  13. How do you know "they" are all the same people? Is there evidence that there is only one group making Macross KOs? Even if it was the same group, there are way to many factors involved to say the quality of one product guarantees all other products will share the same quality for most companies producing anything. Especially when the basis is on one sample of one product. I kind of hope the quality ends up being terrible so I don't even have to consider getting any of them. If they end up as good as or better than official, they will be extremely tempting.

    Macross figures

    The box is the first thing I noticed too. Look forward to getting these.
  15. I believe you have some law background so this is good info. As you pointed out, "the damage to HG is deemed negligible". So negligible stealing isn't stealing, right?
  16. Cool!
  17. Haha, yeah...Chinese manufacturers must abide by international law or else they are thieves, but then none of that applies to other international licensing laws just because. OK, whatever. Again, I don't really care and just wanted to continue what was a fun and interesting conversation with the main goal of reducing the finger pointing and assumptions about other people but either I'll be called a thief for being ok with KOs or a loony for thinking if you want to use moral and legal arguments, that it goes both and every other way. Once again, I'm done and will continue to wait for reports on how these KOs turn out.
  18. Actually, I'm just trying to say people shouldn't be judging other people and I'm just interested in the final product but I see now that it's going to happen one way or another so it's all good. NBD.
  19. Stealing is stealing. Legal technicalities...whatever. Again, I don't care other than to point out there is no need to talk about who is morally better than who in this thread. If the KO turns out good and you want to buy it, go for it! If you won't buy kos under any circumstance, fine but don't need to act like it's because you are more moral than others. That is all.
  20. It was just a point to make with the people who say "stealing is stealing" and judging the ko manufacturers. Main point is I don't care about any of it. Just the best product for my money and there is no need to bring morals and laws into this because there are no morals or laws that people don't break.
