    Well, how long has it been for the VF-5000?
  2. Sildani
    I think the original Frontier VF-31s were the height of Bandai's engineering AND assembly abilities, and not coincidentally they came out shortly before COVID. During and after COVID most everything has been flawed in one way or another. I guess factories closed and people left and institutional knowledge went with them. Doesn't matter to me, I'm pretty much done with collecting Macross, I've been priced out of the hobby for one, and for another what you pay for what you receive is totally imbalanced. Bandai just don't care.

    And a great review it was!

    The white missile blocks on the outside of the legs are massive and hangs down in fighter mode. Chest piece as well. The fins are as small as some people's hands, proportionally to the massive nose. The wings are super thick to accommodate all the opening panels and internal detail. For the price they're charging this is inexcusable. Definitely optimized for soldier, as jenius says, and therefore not for me.

    Not baroque enough.

    Re: the sword, I always wanted some 40K to go with my Mospeada.

    Hi all. I'm considering dipping my toes into the gaming PC scene for the first time in decades, mostly so I can play Escape From Tarkov. It's... dizzying, the amount of crap out there, and the outrageous names manufactures give even the PC cases they make, to say nothing of fans, RAM, and so forth. And let's not get started on the literal alphabet soup of motherboard types, GPUs, and the like. I don't want to waste my money on overkill, OR by undershooting what's needed. So I come to you, who know much. THIS much I have gathered: Tarkov has been described as CPU-intensive, requiring more from it than the GPU. I'd like to display 1440p res with High graphics settings or better at 60fps or better. I DON'T care about RGB, or a weird transparent case since it's going to be out of sight anyway. Budget is $700, not to exceed $900. I don't mind pieceing it together myself. Just please tell me what I need, what I don't, and whatever lessons you can teach me the easy way. Thank you, all!

    Arrived today with no fuss from Nin-Nin, decently packed with no wasted volume. I am very impressed with the engineering and build quality. The main landing gear alone are an amazing example of complexity and cleverness, and when they’re extended they’re rock solid. Thank goodness the Legioss is getting reissued this month. I NEED one for this beast.

    I had thought the NUNS adopted the VF-24, of which the VF-25 was a detuned "Share-Valkyrie" that was sent for free to emigrant fleets and colonies and the VF-26 made by Macross Olympia went nowhere. The VF-24 was described as so powerful and versatile that I can't imagine the NUNS getting rid of it only a decade or so after its adoption.

    Mine just shipped from Nin-Nin, so I’m glad I avoided their curse. Now I just need a Legioss.

    That Sisko looks very little like Avery Brooks.

    Been a while since I've been to this thread - how many keyboards have you gone through, Seto? 🙂
  14. Sildani
    He died as he lived. There will never be another like him.

    Well I checked Nin-Nin's FAQ, and it seems legit... I suppose this order broached some kind of limit.
