Ha thanks! It's just my old HMR VF-4 from way back. Nicely engineered but was a little light on details out of the box. -

Despite the QC issues with the WWM VF-25, the matte finish looked great, so I can't wait to get the SMS squadron. Hopefully Bandai ironed out the QC issues from the WWM release. Don't AX us, Bandai!

I agree it was enjoyable. While I've actually enjoyed this season so far (a trait sorely lacking in previous seasons), I wouldn't put it on the same level as DS9 or the best of TNG. Then again those shows have 20+ years at their backs, so expecting any series to immediately reach the same level as them is asking a bit much. And yeah, there's the nostalgia factor. It can easily detract if they go overboard, but I'm willing to cut a little slack if this is going to be the TNG cast's swan song. I'd prefer this over Nemesis being the last we see of this crew. Still, four more episodes is plenty of time for them to completely f*** it up.

I'm sure there will be a few units available upon release. Just gotta be quick to snatch one before they're sold out for good. (Still wish I had purchased a second PF 0D.)
-
Yeah it's been on order stop status for like 2 years now.

Absolutely not. -
It never does. With the 25F release next month, I think this time around I'll keep the the clean anime look, seeing as how I've already finished the SMS squadron.
-
In the case of the 25G, it's simply accurate to the show. There is no evidence to suggest this was a screw-up rather than an intentional design choice, as it appears like this consistently throughout the anime. Whereas the 25F is missing it's red and black paint on the head in the first episode, though one could simply say that that was Gilliam's 25F and Alto's is a different color variant. You don't have to like it, but in this instance there really is no one to blame except maybe Kawamori for the choice of colors.

I'm pleased to see the VF-25s being reissued with improvements, but for me it means more landing gears that need to be painted... That's how it appears in the anime.

Thanks! And no way am I going to re-repaint the landing gear! -
Wow! I guess they get dust storms in the south Pacific too.

Mine arrived a few days ago but haven't had a chance to set it up yet. I'll do a side by side with Yeti a little later today or tomorrow.
-
Oh snap that's a VF100? At first I thought it was the DX before I read your post. Sweet shots!

Oh wow I didn't realize that just an Angel Birds with the blue removed. Nicely done! -
Yeah a lot of the "new Trek" haters seem to view "old Trek" through rose colored goggles, as if previous Trek shows weren't pretty awful a lot of the time too.

I sympathize with your plight, but at this point I'm afraid the only way you're going to get the blue you want is to buy a model kit and paint it yourself. Or repaint the HMR to the blue you want. Bandai cheaps out on the markings anyway so it's not like you'll have to find a bunch of replacement decals for it.

That's for the best. I do the same thing when I pretend there were no Matrix sequels.

Nothing says "true fan" like putting down the opinions of others because they don't agree with you.

Ep5 was another good episode. This really is the show we should have gotten from the start. If they can keep up this level of quality and not stumble in the second half of the season, then Picard will have deftly avoided becoming the worst Trek series ever. Sorry, Voyager!

Like that custom VF-1 -
Why does Bandai have such a problem with letting people buy their crap?
