  3. Geez ! I tought I was the only one that liked battletech's mech designs here. I have a madcat myself but it's a diecast version by joyride that i painted in custom camo colors. Here's a picture
  4. I was able to remove the peg plates from the belly assembly this morning and I am currently trying different configurations (reverse, upside down etc...). Once I find the best position for the pegs, I'll post the results. So far, what I am noticing is that with the pegs assembled backwards, the legs/wings are much closer to the fuselage. Anywho, I,ll post results soon.
  5. Nope, I think we all agree that the 1/48's are in scale with the Hasegawa ground crew set. I had both and the pilots are comparable in size with the crew members.

  20. It's 15 inches long. There's a Takara version in 1/144 scale comming out in april that's going to be 22 inches long with full action (electricaly retractable elevator legs) and remote controlled vehicules. While this new one will rock, it will lack the die cast content of the Aoshima verion.
  21. This one was 140$ from HLJ (my first and last purchase from them...) I also found it a leo toys in taiwan for 125$ about aweek after I bought it from HLJ.
  22. LOL, That my is friend is one of the things my 3 1/2 year old daughter will be collecting in 30 years from now, long after this one will have found it's way to the dumpster.
  23. I just received an icon of my younger days, the Aoshima TB2. This is not as much a review as a simple need to express my total awe and excitement in finaly being able to fly this thing around the room. I got the Konami container vehicules from a local shop as I just wasn't content with having only the mole that is supplied with the TB2. This thing is really heavy and made mostly (80%) in diecast, the rest is made of nicely paint great quality ABS. I am waiting to get the charawheels container vehicule sets from bandai and the TB1 from Aoshima too as I just can't get enough after what I just got here. One of the things that really touches me from getting this toy and having my son watch the show with me is how much CG animation has now undervalued the artistic qualities of the old days Sci-Fi animators and modelists such as Gerry Anderson, the creator of the show in the 60's. The only thing now that my son sees when he watches the show is that the puppets don't look natural, the ships look weird etc... In the early 70s when I was old enough to watch and understand the show, the Thunderbirds was pure magic. Sure the caracters looked weird but the vehicules were way ahead of their time and looked so cool and real. My parents had just got a spanking new color tv and I finaly saw the real color of the TB2. These moments were magic. I finaly have, after 32 years of fandom, a little part of it in my display room. Just tought I'd share a little nostalgia. BTW, I recommend this toy to any fan of the Thunderbirds show, it is magnificient. cheers Erick
