  1. I don't know about aero nautical terminology, however I'll give it my best attempt. Isn't pitch is referred as the angle of decent that an aircraft has to obtain to either ascend or descend to its designated place for landing or taking off and Yaw is when you do a roll over in an aircraft correct? Camber (for us gearheads) is the inward or outward angle if the tire (tyre for the U.K. spelling) when you look at it at the top of the steering knuckle downwards. That's why you see tricked out vehicles that have the tire pushed inward or outwards from the wheel well to compensate for the ride height, tire traction and other related issues.
  2. Hmm... Looking at the Illustrated Delta book has made me think that Arad is next is Miko (not clearly seen). I have not seen Mirage that openly expressive as she is having fun here as she's mostly reserved.
  3. On Toyark and this post by Joe Moore might be of interest.. http://news.toyark.com/2018/05/29/hot-toys-avengers-infinity-war-captain-america-mystery-weapons-revealed-300969 Down the rabbit hole we go..
  4. My apologies in de-railing off the Draken to a degree. Just the mention of this holographic cockpit technology also reminds me of the VF-27 in which Sterne and O'Conners valk has. Wasn't the holographic projection implemented in the 27 first and then carried over to the Draken by Kawamori in the series?
  5. Hmm.. In your regards to your reply Shizuka, Mirage's 31c and possibly Chuck's 31e ( upon release) will be on your wish list if you so choose to add a Sigfried in your collection.
  6. Looking at @Zx31's post above.. I don't think that either Bogue, Cassim, Herrmann, Roid, Keith and the twins wore helmets at all during the dogfight against the Sigfrieds. The only person without the flight suit and the helmet combo in the Sigfrieds is Hayate as the A.I. is his 31j set up.
  7. All this talk about a new 31f has gotten me thinking.. @Shizuka the Cat aren't you getting any 31 valks for your collection (don't know if you have managed to watch the entire run of Delta or just not interested at all)? I know that you made a couple of points in regards to the 31a though.
  8. Only true die-hard fans will by another 31F for their collection. Reminds me of this from the Simpsons Making a re-release of Messer's valk again now with the clip on joints for the Lil' Draken pods and the inclusion of a Hayate figure? I'm sure that Shapeways will have the clip-ons on file when they get around to making a set for it..
  9. I have actually worked with Blue Nitrile (during my gearhead days) and now Food Safety Gloves in my Property management related field (haven't used cotton ones yet). The blue ones are most common to rip as @505thAirborne mentioned and is the mostly used in todays daily usage. Might pick up the cotton ones and try them on. You can also get a set of spudgers from Amazon for this usage as well.
  10. Thanks @no3Ljm! I guess that you can also use you colour chart to verify which shade of yellow is used for Chuck's for any who are OCD about colour correctness. Interestingly enough, I guess that someone (maybe on this thread?) as picked up both Messer's 31 (v.1) and the Supers that I mentioned about on a couple of posts back on Amiami.
  11. I was thinking along the same lines as Jenius when I was typing a response while writing you Shizuka; however he beat me to it..
  12. Hopefully that Chuck's 31E will look just as good as the model kit version that was shown awhile back. I take it that the Supers will be another welcomed addition as well. I don't remember if the Supers was shown in conjunction with the radome during Operation Ragnarock. Can anyone verify that?
  13. He He He... That's why where all enablers here as we're here to empty out your wallet even further!
  14. Well... You can put the valk in battroid version along the beach getting a suntan with shades, towels and the whole nine yards! Edit: On a second though, good for doing customs if anyone is up for it.
  15. @Saburo: That's the reason why I decided to get Mirage's 31c and the upcoming Supers as the Magenta makes it pop out more than the others. Not a big fan of the others (to each their own).. Note with edited listings: Anyone still needs a first release of Messier's 31 and Supers (all from Amiami)?

    Anyone missed out in getting HMR VF-2ss or the HMR VE-1 at reasonable prices? Last chance at Amiami for the VF-2ss http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-031222-R&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Finc_txt2%3D7%24s_cate3%3D986%24s_originaltitle_id%3D12816%24s_st_condition_flg%3D1%24s_st_list_backorder_available%3D1%24s_st_list_newitem_available%3D1%24s_st_list_preorder_available%3D1%24pagemax%3D40%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D2 Last chance at Manda for the HMR VE-1 https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1088865777&ref=list
  18. Anyone want a Yamato SV-51 Ivanoff before Arcadia releases the upgraded version? Note: I don't know if its the V.1 or the V.2 version (fairly reasonable in price than compared to other listings) https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1078008827&ref=list
  19. Anyone in for a HT Solo from the said movie that is released today? http://www.hottoys.com.hk/productDetail.php?productID=600
  20. No need to jump and get excited about the "supposed leaks of the new SV-52"... Is the bird going to take off by 2020?? If so, might as well get another valk in the mean time..
  21. Mirage's Supers now up by 2k yen from my previous post. https://www.nippon-yasan.com/23378-macross-delta-super-parts-set-for-dx-chogokin-vf-31c-siegfried-mirage-farina-jenius-custom-limited-edition.html
  22. As gearhead by trade, got these British iconic cars in a two week span. The Caterham 7 was a Amazon deal as it was discontinued and the box is slightly beaten up (not a MISB type of guy). Going to keep be busy until my copy of Mirage's VF-31C gets delivered (Still sitting on the dock until the shipping crate is full or it's on the way to YVR as there's no update since the 14th of this month).
  23. Had to poke my head in here and see all the valk pics done by @Saburo... Will be posting my share when I get a chance to. I'm not a amateur photographer with all the fancy equipment as I'm just a novice beginner, we call got to start somewhere right?
  24. If the page is gone, then someone picked it up. It was the Cannon Fodder 171 for roughly 17.5K yen
  25. Anyone need a CF 171 at a slight discount? http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=TOY-RBT-2966-R&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Finc_txt2%3D7%24s_cate3%3D986%24s_originaltitle_id%3D12816%24s_st_condition_flg%3D1%24s_st_list_backorder_available%3D1%24s_st_list_newitem_available%3D1%24s_st_list_preorder_available%3D1%24pagemax%3D40%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D2
