    Not as much as it sounds, cause if they're all production run then the differences are big enough to denote that and the parts and labor to maintain them all have to be handled distinctly. It balloons fast. But for whatever reason Frontier decided they wanted it that way (I know I'm not Seto, but I'll say it's a case of "Screw the rules, I have money" lol)

    Hey, even stranded spaceship populations have needs lol.

    Oh in this I am fully agreed, as both an aerospace engineer and an Air Force maintainer veteran lol. My job for the latter was to work on one version of the engine used in a specific block of F-16C, and it wasn't the latest block, lol. So having multiple models on top of that would be a nightmare. In my engineer hat I see it much as you. Many of one type is much more preferable to mass production. As for pengbuzz with the pun steal, we can only defer to the future what can do better.

    Admittedly I was thinking there was likely reasons beyond that that'd give favor to the 25 but as my statement goes I actually do agree with your reasoning for the 31. I'll tell you one thing, from a pure aesthetic standpoint I like the 31 much more, and the transformation is definitely better. I own DXs of two 31s and the 30 it's derived from and only the 29B on the other side for a reason lol. You sir have defeated me at my own game.
  5. Master Dex
    It's probably the most versatile, but I think the 31s hot swappable equipment containers is the better direction. As for 24, just assume everything is at 11, lol.

    Budget and time? CG is cheaper probably.
  7. Master Dex
    Yeah no worries, lol. I definitely get it, nothing is standard right now. As an engineer myself I can certainly understand those challenges.

    *sits in waiting room* My interest was peaked, and you have kept it at a steady high good sir.

    Nah his second is cause he has to tear it up to scan it for his terribly mysterious website, lol. Pretty sure he doesn't have any unopened.

    I don't know what bothered people back then so much about it to bully you but I think it looks pretty neat. Most people don't go into the kind of detail you did and frankly that's worth a lot. Also if it's for an RPG it just has to be internally consistent anyway. I say be proud of your creation even it others can't be bothered.

    You mean penetrate the Earth Defense Grid? With a VF based on a monkey model spec of the YF-24 that Earth has the full specs for molded into a VF-24 that is supposedly more capable than the Uber expensive Vajra-killer YF-29? Also an Earth that has a defense grid designed to protect against their own creation by now and the experience of knowing they have to account for a type of attack exactly like what Isamu did before? It might not be impossible, but it might as well be. Even if the disparity in defensive technology and Earth's way way more powerful VFs compared to the cheap knockoffs Brisingr makes wasn't a factor, Isamu basically did one thing that actually helped Earth, he showed a vulnerability they could patch, and almost certainly have. Basically, he ruined it for any future attackers wanting to infiltrate the planet the same way lol.

    In fact, it does not.

    Just waiting for 2018 for that new series. I'm sure we'll hear news any day now.

    To my knowledge, the Fold Dimensional Resonance system isn't used for superluminal travel, it's basically a better version of the Fold Wave system, and it can also break through fold faults. I suppose that means if used in concert with normal fold travel it could pop on through them... but considering the quality of fold quartz you'd need to use it.. might as well just slap on a super fold booster, which also needs that fold quartz to work, and just do it that way with any craft.
  15. Master Dex
    Right? And that just tells us a concert is involved... like we couldn't see that coming, lol.

    If you only ever talked to western audience members like on this forum who aren't big on Delta you might not know that the Japanese audience, which the show is made for, absolutely loves it. They also love the real Walkure idol group, and both make great money over there. So yeah its got follow ups. The first movie is just the usual retelling of the shows plot with with a lot of trim (and even more Walkure). The second movie, still to release, is a brand new story set after the show. We don't know many details however.
  17. Master Dex
    In all honestly it's a large part of why we all keep coming back here, lol.

    I think crippling overspecification doesn't fit the YF-29. It is definitely an over expensive powerhouse that isn't economical in the slightest, but it certainly pays its debts... If it could be used more than once without Alto wrecking it. If anything deserves the term crippling overspecification, it's the Sv-262, which pretty much only works well in atmosphere cause it's users are so gung ho about the wind and having the most ornate and cool looking transformation they have no fuel storage. My two cents, I'll leave the rest for the people with the data.

    It's obviously a deep dive into the shade of yellow paint used in the plane. I wondered if it was a joke actually cause, today, and I couldn't make the link work. EDIT: I've seen the link in another topic now so I guess it is real. I still have none of the books except the VF-19 one anyway lol, but it sounds like other VF-1 books would be a better buy.
  20. Master Dex
    Extra time for all that translation work, lol.

    It's far too early to tell if this virus will still be as big a problem by October. It might be, it might not.. for now I think it's easier to assume the con will go on and they can cancel closer to the date if they have to.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Master Dex replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    If we're competing on who got less I'm in the group with a Messer 31F and a 31A (I got a 262 as well but that's a different thread). No multiples, I don't do that. I do kinda wish I had gotten super parts for Messer before the price hike but I couldn't really afford it at the time. Haven't checked the rates on that since.

    I'm pretty confident they were a Brisingr NUNS Fleet. Perhaps the only proper one in the otherwise poorly operated cluster. They almost certainly had VF-171s, but considering how they were defeated, it might not have mattered.
  24. Master Dex
    I might plan ahead more and actually go Delta level, maybe even stay for the after party. I like calmer things myself, plus except for Seto I've never been able to really get to know anyone there. But I've only been twice.
  25. Master Dex
    I can totally understand how that goes, I hear similar stories where I work all the time. Like said, if it takes more time than that's how it is. Life is always in front lol. Good to hear it's leveling out though.
