  1. Don't mind the haters. If anything, it's to be expected when decisions are made to take risks with a franchise as large and popular as this one. That being said, this could possibly, maybe be a thing:
  2. That's one of my all-time favorite MG kits. The box illustration looks amazing with all the panels in spread-eagle mode, but I leave all the Psyco-frame parts closed on the actual kit, otherwise the kit just looks like it's trying too hard and comes across as silly. I need to modify the handle on the shield also.
  3. Great review, thanks for sharing! The pragmatist in me thinks a lot of the issues can be fixed by just paying attention to details. Screw holes could easily be plugged, dies can be "massaged" for better parts-fit in key areas, the sequence of assembly and painting can be altered. Paint apps can be improved, and plastics can be changed. A much better product can be had by tweaking just a few little things; no need for major (expensive) re-tooling. Also, while it would likely come at the cost of transformation, these can be customized and repainted just like Valks. Lots of potential for someone who's not afraid of a fixer-upper.
  4. Bingo!! Add to this that many people cling to notions/ideas/beliefs which are comforting, but not founded in truth or reason... Only to be blindsided when reality comes-a-knockin'. Rian Johnson took a baseball bat to many of the sacred cows in the SW universe, and I for one would like to thank him for having the guts to do so. Darkness rises, and the light to meet it. I could spend a whole podcast on that one sentence alone.
  5. Just as an FYI, I will be having a 1-day holiday sale on December 26th with anywhere from 10 to 30% savings. Prepare your piggy banks accordingly!
  6. Bandai kits actually have beautiful, vibrant colored plastic... Very much unlike this, which looks like its plastic comes from recycled drinking cups or something. Granted you can't use polystyrene for a toy, but still, that translusency really kills the otherwise great look of the figure.
  7. Baby Crabs have just hitched a ride on Santa's sleigh, so most of you should get them before Christmas!! In the meantime, here are the destructions for your downloading pleasure--which need hosting because the MW interface is giving me attitude.
  8. Hi guys! Just wanted to let you know that I've been casting my tiny brains out and will be able to ship come Monday. I'll use the weekend to bag, pack, and fill customs forms accordingly.
  9. And just to follow-up on my update, casting has already begun in earnest, with excellent results. The down-side to all this casting is that my floor looks like a fruity mess!
  10. Thank derex3592: his builds, his pic. I take full responsibility for the advertising slogan, though. It's a great time to be a MOSPEADA fan!
  11. The holiday season is upon us: tremble in fear!!
