Wow! ewilen that link is cool. I mad mine quite similiar but just used the anime as a reference. I'm close but in the anime there isn't a big hole for the head to fit recessed into. So I'm off a little there. Also a little off at the rear portion. Wish I'd had this link when I started. All I really have left on is is some sanding, painting and glueing on the 2 person cockpit and canopy.

Hey Guys. Give me a couple of days and I'll take some new pics. I looked on my computer for the originals but they've vanashed. If the old boards are back online I think I posted them with my joke GBP. I'll add some pics soon, I promise...I just gotta find the darn thing.

I'm willing to put in a pre-order to front you some paypal cash for the job. I'd like to see what they are going to look like and what's included though first. Would be awsome if you can include stickers for the elint and ostrich. As well as the strike stickers. I've got about 6 joke machines (5 of them are Rohbys) in dire need of stickers. Also could you do a additional double of the one fast pack since in rohby's kit we get 3 fast packs (2 super and 1 strike.)?

Hey Kanata67, You should come out here to Tempe. We have more cars stolen per amount of vehicles than anywhere in the nation. They came out and said that 1 in every 100 escalades is stolen here. THey jump in and head to mexico.

I was! Search my old posts on both this and the old board and you'll see pics of it. I've been swamped with work and haven't finished any projects lately. That one is practically done though. To be honest I don't even know what box its in since I haven't unpacked my macross stuff since my move. I'm kinda suprised that anyone remembered it. Jim

If it was done as well as Rohby's Joke machines and were around $50-60 I'd buy the set. Be nice if they were tinted a little brown too for those that don't like painting. How would you do the polycaps though?

Why not recast the whole thing? The darn kit is too expensive for most of us. recast it all plus some extra bits to have all 3 on display. please

Favorites include: Almost anything from Cowboy bebop and macross plus Trigun song that the little kid starts singing at the end of the runaway sand train episode. I like the chick version better. Noir opening. The end of inu yasha The ballad of Ranma and akane

I gotta say the my 2001 Harley sportster kinda sucked. very fun to ride but the engine never ran properly and the battery charging system totally sucked from the day I bought it. I was bringing it in for service about twice a month and the dealer couldn't figure it out. We decided one night we'd sell it....the next morning we woke to find it stolen. They guy who stole that crappy running bike now sits in prison and I got all my money back for the bike. Worked out great for me.

My Most disappointing toys: 1. MPC vol 1 2. Anything star wars. If got nine boxes of useless sealed crap. 3. 1/75 YF-21 4. 1/76 Taka GBP (I traded it) 5. K&M figures 6. Anything toynami 7. Gundam FIX 13 deep striker. Cool for display but that's about it...very expensive.

I like it but the gerwalk just looks fugly to me. As far as the big hips go...I can handle that if it prevents the floppy hip syndrome that the 1/60's had. Fighter looks good. Better question is how many varients of this will there be or do we have to buy multiples and customize to get the low viz or D versions.

I'm originally from Rush City (b/w forest lake and hinkley) but I live in Tempe AZ now. Moving back to MN in a year or 2.

Eva is great.

Ok I just watched reflection Holy Crap! Got a couple of Q's though: 1. What disease or whatever killed Kenshin and Kaoru? 2. What the hell was Sano doing in part 2? I thought for sure he'd end up with Magumi. 3. What was up with Kenshin falling off that ship and supposedly drowning...is this how he lost his muscle and mind 4. Where was kenshin when Sano Found him and how did Sano find him? This is by far the saddest any anime picture has made me feel. I almost shed a tear. Almost I must say that this is a tremendous series that cannot be missed if your a true anime fan.

I know this guy who bought a computer from Dell and had it shipped via airborn express. The guy come home from work and finds the box left outside his door (they didn't even bring it to his housing complex's office...by the way this is in the middle of Phoenix!. Worse though is the fact that it was the middle of monsoon season and his computer was soaked. Literally filled up with water. Scratch one $3,000 computer. I recently bitched out my UPS man for leaving a DVD I ordered (it came in one of those padded envelopes) under my doormat. I almost walked right on top of it. I flipped out on the guy then called his super. Super says he'll be repremanded. I get another similar package a week later and the a-hole does it again. I loath UPS.

Man I hope the Mikimoto goes through. Come on people. I need my new box.

I'll probably watch a few more before I make a final decision. As far as the shift in universes it kind of reminds me of Duel Parralel adventures (Dual Parallel Universe on Anime Unleashed). So far the lack of large scale battles is annoying me. I do love the mecha they created out of his plane. Gotta get that toy. THanks

I've been watching the original orguss. I'm up to about episode 4 (he just got his new rebuilt mech and kicked some butt). Anyway does this show get any better. So far I'm having trouble watching it cause its so boring. Should I watch the rest or is this just a waste of time. Advise please.

You know what we should have done is make the case look like the shape of the Macross. Open up the top (cruiser style) or better yet the chest (in attach mode)and there are your movies. Make the Arms and cannons movable. I'd would probably need to be like 1/800 to make it work though. Unless you went with those slim gem cases. Hmmmmmmm. Just kidding. I love the designs that are being made.

Wahoo!

Ok, i just watched the supposed last episode on TechTV. Please tell me that that isn't the actual ending. Please tell me there is more. Great series but probably the worst ending I've ever seen. We never even get to find out what happened to Al and Lavie or what exile really is. Also what the hell is wrong with that Guild kid. Kids a fruitcake! Please tell me that that was only season 1. How many DVD's are in the series? You could sell that on 2 DVD's. Watch them milk us for 4 or 5 like Gundam 0083 or 8th MS. I need answers dang it!

20G's holy crap! Man you need help. I know these things are addictive but just think what you could have or do if you slowed down a bit. 20G's is like 2 years of college for your kids. Holy crap. Not to be mean and I mean no disrespect but if I ever spend that much somebody please step in and have an intervention. BTW where do you store everything.

Is there any way we can send out an e-mail to all members? Might be the best way to get those members who don't visit too often to purchase.

I've gotten 3 loose Joke machines in the last year for under $25. Price is definitely bottomed out on the 1J'sand 1S's. The 1A's seem to fetch a good amount though. I suspect Rohby's awsome recasts caused this. Heck I bought 5 of them!. I'm so glad he did it. Now I have a Joke machine squadron in the works. Need more people recasting old stuff like these.

If they have problems with this you might want to avoid watching some of the other Miyazaki's films with kids. "Only Yesterday" talk quite a bit about periods and that boys could become infested with the period. "Ocean Waves", aka "I can hear the Ocean" also mentions periods a bit. I've been watching a lot of Miyazaki's stuff in the studio ghibli collection and there seems to be a lot of odd things in them for childrens movies. In my opinion I'd go with the following. For kids Nausicaa Princess Mononoke (maybe) Leputa: Castle in the sky Spirited away Kiki's delevery service Whisper of the heart Porco Rosso Totoro For teenagers to adults Grave of fireflies (lots of death) On your mark video Ocean Waves Only Yesterday
