lol, thought i was the only one... it's like it has hydrocephalus or something... EDIT - ... and poor 17 Trainer... not even installed w/ even a single head laser, looks like it's been castrated...

cool looking 0S... i see you're trying to hide the priest collar there

funny how everybody was screaming for a 0D and now that it's all but confirmed, it's been kicked to the curb ... i'd want the 0D before anything... but yeah, i'd like to see Yamato have a go at the 17...

finally the sub is out... can't wait to watch...

i forget... is there a release date for the Gurren+Lagann? that's the one i really want to get...

great pics! lovin' the max blues...

any additional tampo markings for the 19s??? like the kite emblem on the sides of the fuselage/cockpit area??? or stickers again...

haha... seems Yamato's answering this thread... repaints!

wow, that was fast... thought it would take at least a month from Graham's hints... liking the 22! not so much the 19s esp. if they'll come out still as floppy as the orig. 19...

i'm totally with you on the God Scrander... but i'm still buyin' this ...no Gattai ep3 yet?...

new pics of GX-45 Maz

HAHA... this thread is turning into "why the hate for the 1/60's"

LOL at both the 30-something-guys-that-still-like-to-play-w/-toys (i'm here) camp and the MISB collectors camp for both thinking that they're the one's being looked down on and misunderstood...

i don't think there's any hate, at least not from me... what i hate is when you choose one over something else for perfectly good and/or practical reasons, then people automatically think you hate the other thing that you didn't choose...

LOL, poor ole me ... my setup's much much worse than that, and it's been to the repair shop a couple of times, i'm massively embarrassed to even show it! LOL

yeah, just like in some sports w/c require equipment of some sort, if you really suck at it, no amount of high tech or fancy equipment will help (suck at golf - sold callaway clubs; pretty decent at badminton even w/ cheap bootleg equipment)... however, even if someone has some basic skills to begin with, crappy equipment will definitely hinder the development of said skills... i'd bet that even phenoms like Tiger Woods/Lance Armsrtong etc wouldn't have won as many tournaments/races if they only had crappy/consumer end equipment... well, MJ still would've won as many NBA titles coz his shoes were just for show and for making boatloads of money... it definitely did not make me jump higher or stay in the air longer when i bought those air jordans... well, here's to hoping a new cam will bring out some skills...

hey 1979... looking at your gerwalk pics i'm guessing you haven't extended the legs at the knees... it really helps in doing more aggressive gerwalk poses...

from Banpresto Ichiban thread.

she decided to get a canon SX10 IS (budget reasons & taking pics of the kids from afar)... she read the comparative review and while it's still not a DSLR (w/ the big sensors and all that) it does have a lot of manual settings to mimic shooting w/ a DSLR... i'm gonna be trying it out (finally, it's going to be cool to take pics w/out a flash and not have the pic come out super grainy) and see if i'm gonna dig this photography thing and maybe i'll save up for an entry level DSLR kit maybe by 2010... i've been kinda put off buying electronics lately coz it really sucks for me whenever i buy something and it's outdated after a few months.

wow, finally pics... thanks!

this one's cool...

just get the new one... i read here somewhere somebody ordered parts and the colors didn't match... and the new one is tighter all around...

... do i sense some bitterness???

another thing about keeping something MISB... i'm guessing it comes from people wanting to have something they feel is "perfect"/untouched, but with all the defective stuff (from diff toy makers) we keep hearing about, how can one be sure that their's is not defective, esp. if it comes in a box w/o a window display??? ...my wife doesn't really mind me buying these toys as long as i don't go "shopaholic crazy" or impulsive and pay the bills first... EDIT - the 3rd group should be renamed - "Collectors who want their toys and eat it too..."

didn't really care when kaki died and i wouldn't have cared if they had killed off luca too... F and G for me, coz they're Fukcn' Great...
