  1. A couple of questions:

    What should I use to strip the paint from the plastic?

    Sebastion- How did you get the hinges off the legs?

    That's what the thread is about! Get an empty ice cream container, and put all your parts into it with some pine-sol and sugar soap. leave it overnight to soak and then remove the paint with sandpaper (I also used a small flat head screwdriver to remove the thick paint from the legs).

    How did you get the hinges off the legs?

    A screwdriver! :p Seriously though, if you want to do a good looking custom job you have to completely dis-assemble the valk first.

    WOOOOW!!! Guppy! You are talking like a Suppa Duppa Custom Master!

    Gup is allright. to teake out the hinges you may need to force a little bit the Zink Allooy pegs. The Diecast is easy to bent, but it is also ESAY to break, so BE CAREFULL while bending the pegs that secure the hinge metal bar.

    So Gup??

    :blink:

    How is your Suppa Duppa Custom VF 1 going???

    Pics? :huh:

  2. Yamato is not a small and unknown company. If HLJ categorize the FPs as a garage items is only because the limited avaibility of the FPs. It means the production run was really small or HLJ got just a small stock.

    Garage Kits are usually resin kits, and their limited stock is because the mold decade real fast. The FP are made of plastic, this means the molding is made of steel and it does not decade fast at all.

    We will see more FP releases in future, that is for sure, YAmato will want to milk the molds.

    What do you mean by YAmato never releasing an oficial FP. I think the ones they release looks official enough. :huh:

  3. Hey guppy.

    An Advice. PLEASE buy a Mr METAL PRIMER (Gunze Sangyo) for the diecast parts of the toy.

    If you apply the paint directly to the toy, or if you use a normal primer and then paint, the paint will fall after a couple of ours.

    dont forget it! METAL Primer.

    Good luck with your custom Wombat !

  4. There was a previous thread about this movie. maybe you should check it.

    Generally speaking the Returner is a very cool Sci Fi Japanese movie. I have the DVD and I really enjoyed.

    It is kinda anime, and the transforming mecha is not the main thing in the movie at all.

    Man, the BAD guy was SO funny!

    Check it if you can.

  5. Please people, don't go there...

    Thank you. Emiko's posts were deleted with good reason. If this thread ressurects that information, however indirectly, it too will get deleted. Moving on...

    Moving on...

    Allways like that... This is a comunity, and we should take care of our members.

    Emiko leaving MW was a SHAME to all of us, except for those two trolls.

    I still regret.

    Anyways. We still have Graham!!! The super duppa insider!

    Too bad he is allways keepng the information untill HLJ put the things on preorder! LOL!
