    TNG is probably the second best series, after DS9. Not counting LD or SNW as they're still running. Agree with @derex3592 as Enterprise was starting to finally get good in season 4 when it was canceled. Voyager is probably the worst Trek series, IMO. Again not counting the new shows as they're still going, but Picard is seriously giving Voyager a run for its money and will probably surpass it in awfulness unless season 3 is just amazing. Discovery is a mixed bag. Some love it, some hate it. I stopped watching after season 3 because, while it's not the worst Trek show, it's not particularly good either. Of the many problems with the show, two of the biggest are the terrible pacing (nothing much happens for most of the season then everything happens all at once in the final 1-2 episodes), and the show's heavy focus on Michael, a character I simply do not give a flying f*** about. Apparently everything that happens in the galaxy always has to center around her. Prepare for Bakula to portray a stupid, petulant, and incompetent captain for most of Enterprise's run. I'm pretty sure he's the only captain who's been complicit in genocide.

    I have the exact same problem with the wings but it's on my Isamu YF-29. Getting wings that aren't improperly curved or bent at the wrong angle is a crapshoot with Bandai's, uh, crapshoot QC. Of course all my 25s have curved wings. Bandai's molding is almost as bad as Micro Machines sometimes. Also agree with Bandai not detailing the sensor array properly. It really looks off on the 31s since their sensors are supposed to be recessed. But that might be asking way too much of Bandai.

    Amazing!!

    Thanks sir. I'm finally getting close to finishing movie skull squadron.

    Now that you mention it, I can't think of any Arcadia releases that have had any clearance sales aside from the 0A, which I recall having a 40% off sale on HLJ a few years back. I'd save up for the Arcadia Nora because the floppy wings on the Yamato annoy me.

    Joy of the hunt?

    Nice. Are you customizing them yourself or are you having them commissioned?

    Roy's landing gear is broken.

    Good luck! Kakizaki seems to have become the rarest to find of the movie Skull squadron these days. I got mine from a friend in Japan who was unloading his movie squadron some years back for cheap.

    So much for ditching physical media entirely.

    Ahhh Mechwarrior took from Robotech what it took from Macross. And the circle of theft continues!
  11. Lolicon
    Nice! What else do you need to complete the squadron?

    Yes, and he was responding to me about not being able to pay in yen through Paypal, but thought I was talking just about HLJ, which I didn't bother correcting since it didn't matter as I'm not going to use Paypal for overseas transactions anymore as long as they force payments in USD. See the chain of events that Paypal's unbridled greed has led to?

    For the gouging Bandai is doing on overseas customers, they better be able to afford Tenjin's services.

    Wasn't talking about HLJ. I was talking about Paypal itself forcing payments to be made in USD. Was purchasing from elsewhere.
  15. Lolicon
    Looks cool. Maybe Sentinel will give us one.
  16. Lolicon
    How did you change PayPal payment to yen? On a recent purchase I noticed that they took away the yen option and tried to force me to pay in USD with their crappy conversion rate (which we know they pocket the difference from). I ended switching to direct credit card payment because I will not give PayPal one penny more for their blatant greed and sneaky way of squeezing more money out of people. Seriously, they already get a cut of the purchase price from the merchant. Now they want to squeeze money from the buyer too?

    The only 1/48 DX that's not too hard to get close to MSRP is the VF-1J armored set. Although with the plummeting yen, if you bought it today at this price you'll get it cheaper than what many of us paid a year ago. Shipping costs are also higher now so it might be a wash. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1198809169&ref=list&keyword=マクロス

    Oh yeah his stuff is amazing. I'll have to pick some up when I have time one of these days.

    Saw it earlier today. It was alright. Phase 4 really feels like it's drifting along with little direction, and this movie encapsulates that.
  20. Lolicon
    Stellar work @MacrossJunkie! You make the rest of us look like a bunch of sausage-fingered oafs!

    I'm glad we're getting to see the bond built up between Pike and Spock that would lead Spock to do what he does in The Menagerie.

    Bandai does a proper 1/100 scale on accident.
