    Pedro, what you can do is to rotate the items you have on display. Especially if you don't get the additional cases for some time. Also gets you in the habit of interacting with your collection more frequently.

    Very nice, clean display Pedro!

    Gundam Can you post a pic of the sticker sheet? I'd like to know if they included the markings for the missing Tampon printing. I.e. UN Spacey and Roy's 301 Markings.

    HLJ, just shipped both of mine.

    Hello Badboy, It should be a gloss before adding the decals. The reason being is that you want a smooth shiny surface for the decal to adhere to. Also, if you don't use a gloss coat before attaching the decal, some decals will leave behind a gray outline that will be visible on the surface. Adding the gloss before applying the decal will allow the decal to blend into the surface it's being applied to. I just completed a build on a pg kit with water slide decals using the same technique. It turned out really well. If you have access to YouTube, you can find a ton of great glunpla building tips and tricks.

    Yes, David. I have both the PG Unicorn and PG Banshee norn. I have the official LED kit for the Norn and the 3rd party LED set for the unicorn. I just completed a build on the PG red Astray with the 3rd party Tactical Arms shield. The plastic quality of the Tactical Arms isn't very good, so buyer beware.

    Add a gloss coat before applying the decals and let dry. Then apply decals and recoat with gloss or topcoat, to seal the decals. When you go to add the decals, it might be easier to disassemble and work on a section at a time. This will make sealing the decals easier. Be sure to recoat with the desired finish I.e gloss for shiny finish, Matte, semi gloss etc. Be sure to take your time. Hope that helps. I'm in no ways an expert, so maybe some of the more seasoned modelers will chime in.

    I agree on the stickers. I shouldn't have to pay an additional $20 bucks for a PG to get waterslide decals.

    Duke, did you see it in 3D?

    Chewie I had the same gripes as well. Also felt way too much of the plot was overly convenient.

    Saw the film last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. I concur on it weakness (too similar to one of the OG trilogies in terms of story beats), but good nonetheless. I did like Drivers performance. You could feel his conflict. I loved Han Solo, and Oscar Isaac made me want to own an X-wing!

    HLJ has it back in stock. I was able to grab one for about $73. I may order another even though I have the Ultimate works LED kit.

    1/60 PG Banshee Norn

    My comment was tongue in cheek. Her character Mystique in the films has been all about being proud and accepting of her mutation. Jennifer Lawrence has been very public about not liking the makeup of the character. Her running around as Raven is all about the studio placating her ego and not about the character no matter how they will try to spin it in the movie. I can't wait for her to be done with the series.

    Cant wait! From appearances Jennifer Lawrence is no longer playing Mystique.
  16. Golden Arms
    Very Nice Treatment!

    Nice Hauls A7! I'm going to build the PG unicorn and RG red astray. I also have the 1/60 LED kit and PG Banshee norn on preorder.
  18. Golden Arms
    1/60 pg red astray. After this several Macross kits and finalizing 1/60 Yamato assembly VF-1S custom.

    Anyone that has been following the news about this film, knew that Doomsday was going to be in, so it should've been no surprise. I thought that they should've waited at least a month before revealing what he looks like, but no big deal. The film version has a lot of physical similarities to the comic version. You can easily see the bone protrusions. Also the film is titled Dawn of Justice! The title intimates by the end of the film that both Superman and Batman will find common ground despite the drama that will ensure for 2 hours! So no real shock there again. I think this trailer softens a lot of the hard gruff that was shown in the first trailer, which might not be a bad thing. One of the weakness of MOS was that Clark/superman didn't come off as too relate able , which ironically the super girl TV show has been easily able to accomplish. The movie going audience has shown that they like a mix of action, drama, light comedy and seriousness which the Marvel films have provided in spades so I don't fault DC for doing the same for their properties. You have tailor films to your audiences taste for big budget blockbusters.

    Lolicon, I'd be willing to buy it for spare parts if you don't get proper resolution.

    Holy Fracking GOD!!!! I'm so there opening night!
  22. Golden Arms
    Saburo, you definitely need to publish a Valkyries photo book. I think it would sell well.

    Damn, Great purchases guys! Bumble bee looks bad ass! I really regret never picking up the 1/60 Angel birds. The colors really pop on that toy. So much better than the 1/48 version. Menasor looks sick! How much smaller is he compared to the Hasbro devastator?
  24. Golden Arms
    Lucky dude VD! She Sounds like a keeper! Anubis, you just sold me on the bootleg!
  25. Golden Arms
    All of the renewal VF-25 releases have suffered from this problem. I second the nail polish suggestion.
