    Just broke down and bought one. Glad I finally managed to - I was starting to worry that I might have missed out. Wish it wasn't quite so expensive, but oh well.

    Wait a tick... Are you saying that you're capable of creating new hands for the Alpha? I might be all over this. Also, by the by, would you be able to reproduce the hands from either of the masterpiece-sized Cyclone riders? I have no idea how, but on one of my hands, the trigger/index finger became separated from the rest of the hand. Thankfully I still have others, but I really miss that trigger finger hand.

    After years of owning an Alpha, I finally broke down and bought a matching Beta recently since the price was too good to refuse. My blue Alpha is - luckily - still 100% intact, but I find myself wishing terribly that someone (anyone) would re-engineer this fighter. I genuinely like the shape/lines and the transformation method. Toynami's attempt was... a passable first attempt, but could have been SO much more...

    ... but I just wanted to say, GREAT job! I am truly enjoying seeing a lot of images which I've never seen before. (And I've been around on this site for a very, very long time.) Please keep up the great work.

    I apologize in advance for asking this in the wrong thread, but if I was considering trying to sell my broken V1 Ozma with armor pack, about how much do you think I could ask for it? Both front landing gear doors are broken, and the main waist "hinge" in battroid mode has developed a visible crack on one side. I won't miss the V1 at all in favor of the V2, and I seriously regret having bought the V1 in the first place.

    Quoted for great truth. C'mon people, sell me on this!

    I absolutely want a VF-5000.

    I actually didn't know that I had preordered the "special edition" until I went to pick it up at the store. I am honestly wanting to get an OD British commando sweater and have the XCOM patch sewn onto it.

    Hell yes there was, and even though it was only for a split second, it was one of my favorite moments of the whole movie. I almost screamed in delight.

    My wife thought that I was nuts when I kept on spotting cameos for things. Absolutely loved the Konami code. If you look carefully at the graffiti in one of the train terminals, you'll see "Sheng Long was here." Gonna have to watch it again to continue spotting more things.

    Ugh. My VF-25S is suffering from severely floppy hip joint syndrome. I've removed one of the legs and covered the ball joint with 2 coats of clear nail polish, and that didn't help a single bit. What should I try next?

    The Honest Trailer up there is brilliant. Totally sums up my disappointment in this movie.

    Wonder if Bandai will eventually do Tornado Packs for the renewal version VF-25's...?

    I'm thrilled to say that I've finally managed to join the very exclusive club of VF-25S Armored Messiah owners. I can't help but now find myself wanting the Super parts as well... The new one puts the previous one to shame. I don't even know what to do with the original now. Although the armor is fine, the Valkyrie itself is broken in two places - and that's with fairly meticulous care.

    I am WILDLY excited about this game. I played the original(s) religiously when I was in college, and even built a few custom graphics mods. Tinkering with the game's rules made me appreciate it so much more than I would have ever expected, and is one of the huge factors which got me into teaching programming. My guys were carrying around rifles with underslung grenade launchers capable of launching HE or stun rounds. I sincerely hope that Firaxis will see that there is a great desire to have the tools to be able to customize certain aspects of the game. I played through the demo, and while it's really short, I enjoyed it a great deal. Of course, the whole first mission is practically on-rails for the newbies who never played the originals. I almost found myself ready to scream at my monitor when I was seeing some of the movement decisions which you're forced to carry out. I turned around and played the second mission my way and walked out with eight dead aliens and zero casualties. Hooah.

    Finally got one of these through the recent HLJ sale, and I couldn't be happier with it. One questions, though - when the FAST packs are attached in fighter mode, does the VF-11 have its tailfins extended or retracted?
  17. Axelay
    Broke down and ordered a VF-11B and the sound booster for the Fire Valkyrie. Those prices were too good to pass up.

    The Nostromo was a mining tug. The Prometheus is a dedicated research vessel which is probably ridiculously well-funded. It seems to me like the type of equipment between a mining tug and a research vessel is probably going to differ drastically in quality, even if there is a time gap between the two.
  19. Axelay
    Define "fairly reasonable" in terms of armor pack, please?
  20. Axelay
    This was utterly fantastic. I am looking forward to seeing more!
  21. Axelay
    LOL!!! "Hulk smash... dem guts!"
  22. Axelay
    Forgive me if I'm out of line for asking this, but what if we were actually willing to fly all the way to CA just to see May'n? I've contemplated this quite seriously.
  23. Axelay
    Is there any hope of still finding a VF-25S Ozma renewal anywhere without having to resort to eBay? I can't believe that these are going for almost $400 now...
  24. Axelay
    I utterly cannot believe that the Ace Combat 6 flight stick won't work with this game. That pretty much demotes this game from "will buy" to "will not go anywhere near" for me.
  25. Axelay
    Does this game work with the Xbox 360's Ace Combat 6 stick? Just want to be sure...
