    Bandai DX VF-31

    Magnetic attachment points would be excellent. Now, do I trust Bandai's QC enough to think they'll get the polarity right every time? Hmm...
  2. IFixit used a heat gun and a circular motion, but it might come down to the same thing. Hm. Thanks!
  3. That's assuming Battroid and Gerwalk don't look completely ridiculous.
  4. I'll ask here. I came into possession of an old fat PS3, model CECHG-01, with the yellow light of death. I've seen an iFixit video of how to fix it: basically strip it down to the motherboard and heat the main chips to make their solder remelt and flow true, since it's probably cracked. Many have done this successfully it seems. The question: how big a deal would it be to not just reflow the solder, but remove the chips completely, clean the chips and board, and solder them down properly? Thanks!
  5. May as well wait for the Second Coming as wish for Arcadia to do more, not less, tampo.
  6. Regarding Arcadia's response to the ankle issue, Bing Translate has it as: We apologize the inconvenience very reps say they... compared to the last aircraft to adjust as much as possible!
  7. Could be a reference to Kelly Johnson, the legendary Lockheed Skunk Works designer, too.
  8. Arado was a German aircraft manufacturer from the WWII era. They're most famed for the AR 234 Blitz, the first operational purpose-designed jet bomber.
  9. Arado Mölders? Really? REALLY?! Waiting for Wulf Galland... or Heinkel Von Werra...

    Bandai DX VF-31

    He didn't want to? Nice design. No gear doors that I can see either. Also: VF-31 Siegfried? Is that this Valkyrie's series name?
  11. He's got kind of a Hawai'ian/Pacific Islander vibe going on, to me. Besides, "mood maker" wouldn't be properly represented by formal clothes I guess.
  12. Bing Translate has it as: "Ashleigh thank you!"First pic of it on the table was: "meaning shoot"
  13. Impossible to say based on that one trailer. I'm withholding judgment until more hard data becomes available, not hearsay. I can't help but think that, had the tech and budget been available, that Roddenberry would have made TOS a bit more active than it was. As for Fast/Furious shenanigans, well, there WAS that dune buggy in Nemesis, with Picard driving and Worf acting as tail gunner. I'm not condoning, mind, just saying there's precedent for furious driving of off-road vehicles. Finally: if the Enterprise gets destroyed and replaced by a new model based on the Excelsior, it'll look seeeeeeeeexxxxxxyyyyy. Worth seeing for that alone, in my book.
  14. Or, one person's opinion and taste. Takes all kinds. Without this movie's buzz, what's out there to entice or attract new Trek fans, eh? Without new blood, any fandom will wither and die, Trek included. Old movies and shows , Internet fan movies, and a pay-per-view (ish) series of unknown provenance are simply not enough.
  15. For over $300, why should it have to be remedied?

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Eh, they could always attach a VF-4 to a high school like they did a VF-1 in Frontier... Or maybe a kid will be playing a VF sim with a Lightning III! Who knows?
  17. GAR-ness? Also, Buccaneer as a last name? Are they implying anything, or is it an English word they thought sounded cool?
  18. Gospel from the Hoary Froating Head!! So informative. And you can read between the lines and see he's mad as hell about the Robotech/HG situation.
  19. Somebody who wanted money. Jason Lee? Where'd he come from? Haven't heard from him since Earl.
  20. Sensor windows maybe? Not painted to avoid interference? And Isamu's doesn't have them because he specified he didn't want them. When you charge in guns blazing, sensors are useless anyway.
  21. Love the fact the NSX, a supercar, is hand-built by 700 Ohioans less than 25 miles from my hometown. May it sell, sell, sell. And prove a few of you guys wrong. In other news, Honda is reviving the S2000, to compete with the Miata and that new Fiat 124.
  22. I didn't know that! Cool.
