  1. I do recall some people broke the back pack hinges or something. Out of my entire 1/48 collection nothing has ever broken. Except for one of my CF valks took a dive on my hard wood floor and broke the headlaser, and yes, it was my fault. My jacket caught the edge of it's gun and dragged it down as i turned around. I had panel lined it, so i always had it next to me. I never fixed the laser, since it magically disappeared, and it is still one of my favorites. Other than that, none of my 20+ 1/48 have ever broken anything.
  2. I see your point No3Ljm. Now that nose /radar thing, i do see as a complication, lol. Unless it is there for the GBP. I am not a huge fan of the radar cone thing, it has been done before. My old 1/48 are actually pretty sturdy, when you think how many times i've transformed them. Still, I am pretty sure it might have to do with the future GBP release.
  3. I don't see the big complication here. The original art had, as we saw earlier, the legs swiveled to the "hip position" and detached. Many would call this a proper step, but now it seems to be a hassle?
  4. Let's remember... There were others.... IIRC, Wave and other studios had versions of VF-1 toys in Magazines. They were expensive and or very hard to build. I think perhaps the Yamato founders were inspired by this, to create their own. Later on, Bandai's interest was renewed in part by Yamato's efforts, and due to the ongoing Macross series they had contracted. I recall finally getting the original chunkey monkeys when Bandai re-released them. This is while Yamato was getting hot/popular. The first time i held my first Bandai 1/100 HM Hikaru 1J, it made me think of a shrunken 1/48 or a 1/60 V2[double elbows]. Am I the only one who felt a connection?
  5. Wow so that's it? 11 minutes, and sold out? WOW! I've never preordered a chogokin macross. This is madness!
  6. i really wanted Nipponjasan, but hey amiami it is....
  7. My first ami ami. I got no money for this, but hey, i had to get it. i hope EMS is not too expensive, lol. i could not think quickly enough, so i selected ems.
  8. SOLD OUT! just kidding...
  9. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! it is imposible!
  10. Make the GBP only work with one model? that's terrible.
  11. Yes, you need moar 1/48.
  12. 55 min to go...
  13. I can see mounting points on the wings.
  14. There is so much wrong with this moive, i can't even watch it again. Also if you noticed, the lasers in TLJ, arched. We all know projectiles lose altitude with gravity and wind resistance, on earth. When the 1st order is attacking the rebels, the lasers "arc" down into the ship's shields. (during the slow space chase)
  15. Thursday 3:32pm in Japan time. So in 22 minutes?
  16. So Thursday 2am central time?
  17. Wow, that Yondu is fantastic! and it comes with the bigger crest!
  18. Thank you! I am working on the acces ramp and on the sides. It is big, and it is taking me way longer than i expected. It sure does look like a pile of junk now, so i am happy. Oh and it is missing the attack damage. I am making it as movie accurate as i can.
  19. Very cool, I'd love to see some pictures one day! That LC MF in box is prob worth 800.00. A good thing to keep in mind before you pop its cherry. I am weathering mine, so i guess i ruined it, lol.
  20. These are the 3.75" inside the Legacy Collection millennium Falcon. Yeah luckily they are not crossed eyed, lol. I am in the process of weathering the Falcon. Slave IV, do you have any Slave 1?
  21. Yeah I love how freaked out he looks. Leia will die from standing there, when the hyper drive kicks in. Oh, no wait she can fly!
  22. Yeah Slave IV i really want to get her, and Obi-wan. So i can finish my Ep IV crew. Oh i like representations of them too, just like you. My BlackSeries Leia looks like a ghost in that fabric. compared to the S.H> Figuarts, lol. The Crew
  23. Ha i have the Miria from that carded super simplistic Valkyrie line, SH9000. ^ ^ ^ ^ Yes Rickhor409 at Ebay. They have a darker one, but i miss ordered, lol.
  24. Yessir, very tempted, but i have had some car repairs, and.. LOL just not a good time for toys I need more pictures of her face. It looks like Claire Danes is possesing Carrie fisher. We will see, i hoping for more angles. oh i am sure you have seen these. The bounty hunters... https://www.nippon-yasan.com/search.php?orderby=position&orderway=desc&search_query=star+wars&submit_search=Search
  25. Still, i think that is the best Kylo's Tie i have ever seen. Very cool, enjoy! I will watch Solo one day, maybe... I've only watched Antman & Wasp, and The incredibles. (i got movie pass) I was debating if i want to go watch Jurassic World. Oh yes forum things, here is perhaps my most recent toy. Poor Leia was at Sale for 7 bucks at game stop. I was not going to get her, but for 6 bucks.... That C-3PO is from TFA, and i painted his red arm, gold, and his leg silver. 7 bucks. Obi-wan is wearing a custom robe from an Ebay seller. He does great clothing work for Marvel and Star wars..
