    If I can swing 2 GOSUs I will as well, but certainly in for 1 . . .

    THAT display looks awesome - so clean! The only suggestion I can make is the top left plane needs a battroid version of itself standing behind it. Would give it balance and show newbie onlookers that yes - "This changes into this" . . .

    RinkYa costs more - but they are hassle free, and I always get my stuff. Picture having issues with lost items you've already paid for, or other problems. But if you find someone that is cheap and trouble free let me know. . .

    I vote for a 1/48th GOSU next - funds ready when you are CAP!

    I would like to start instigating against everyone who has said they like the bright snow white on a military combat mecha -- over the Yamato DYRL gray. Was really hoping Arcadia would have thought of actually piloting these in space against killer aliens and toned it down a bit. Oh well - bring on the M&M re-releases please, at least they will match my current uber white TV stuff . . .

    My kids love the 'Rick Hunter' theme music, and jump all around when its played. Its a great hero adventure tune I never get sick of. "I'm going to have to make you eat those words commander - comin' in . . ." Dahhhhhhhh - DaDahDaDahhh - DaDahDaDahhh - DaDahDaDahhh - Da Da Da Dahhhh

    Extremely cool. But I've 'pre-decided' what to collect and these are not in the mix . . .
  9. DarrinG
    There's deciding, then there's pre-deciding -- what to collect. Deciding once you've laid eyes on something, determining then if its cool enough to collect - seems to add regret later on for me. But pre-deciding on only such and such scale, from certain series - or even manufacturer leads me to less buying, but more satisfaction overall. And it keeps my toy collecting from getting out of control...

    Please paint up something like this Gakken custom when finished with the joint mods . . .
  11. DarrinG
    Nope - me either. I am not angry with them, but bummed it could have been something cool for my collection instead. And they have to be a little bummed that their first release was not a bigger success...

    2 cans of the 'top coat' ordered - thanks . . .

    My Tamiya TS-80 was stopped by the post office from Hong Kong - drat! So I'm about to order Mr. Super Cleat Flat - what is the UV Cut mean? http://www.ebay.com/itm/MR-HOBBY-SPRAY-170ml-UV-CUT-SUPER-CLEAR-FLAT-MATT-B523-/190489411223?pt=Model_Kit_US&hash=item2c5a0dbe97 I heard this does not go very far - so figure about 1 can per 1 mech model kit? And how is this product different? Top Coat: http://www.ebay.com/itm/MR-HOBBY-TOP-COAT-SPRAY-86ml-FLAT-MATT-CLEAR-B503/190529212752?rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D163%26meid%3D3446675890186393289%26pid%3D100005%26prg%3D1088%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D190489411223%26

    You are taking huge empty expanses of metal and making every inch of it look realistic and weathered. Extremely nice work . . .
  15. DarrinG
    I never thought I would see the 1J's red and white color scheme as camouflage . . .

    Did not care much for 'Shaky Cam' in Cloverfield -- but ended up really liking the movie despite that. Seemed like a natural for a sequel - where is the Cloverfiled sequel? Or better yet a Godzilla vs Cloverfield sequel . . .
  17. DarrinG
    WOW - thanks for a heads up on that Target deal - I will drive there and check it out on lunch today...
  18. DarrinG
    Nice work for 3 Nerds in a Basement! Great shots . . .
  19. DarrinG
    Yep - just my opinion, but in generally don't like stupid -- unless its the 3 Stooges or Dumb and Dumber. Some tool flying an F-16 up into a mother craft yelling yahooo - or Broderick and gang driving a car out of Godzillas mouth has no redeeming value for me. I do realize that many like ID4 though. "To much is given, much is expected." They were given much budget, marketing push and great special effects - and returned, well, stupid . . . But I am quite hopeful that this new Godzilla will avoid that and go the more serious route, a la Cloverfield . . .

    What? $11.99?? Seriously - nice! SOLD Will get 4 of those and each a refill pack. Anyone else disagree? Other recommendations? If they keep working despite use THAT is the main thing. THX A7 . . .
  21. DarrinG
    HELP! - Not a NERF guy - but need to be quick. Want to get a set for my 4 kids -- but the ages vary. 4, two 6 yr olds and 11 Need RELIABILITY - Not fussyness - they have to be simple, and take a pounding and keep working. Might be best if they all had the same thing to avoid jealousy too, but maybe the 11 year old should get an upgrade. I will place an Amazon order based on your recommendations . . .
  22. DarrinG
    Which was the one with Mathew Broderick? If that is the one he speaks of it does not deserve a moment to even be crapped on IMO. One of the worst movies I have ever seen - totally wasted great special effects. I had to be restrained from walking out. If I had worked on the great effects for that movie and had to see what they did to it I would have wept like a child. Almost as big a waste of a great idea and money as Independence Day . . .

    Had the family watch the trailer last night. The 6 year old twins and 4 year old had never heard of Godzilla before, and the 11 year old and never seen a movie yet - so they were all entranced. We watched the trailer probably 8x. Its very well done. Hope the movie proves as good as it looks so far...

    This belongs more in the Photography thread - but here is a quick comparison between my shots and theirs. And I did not realize until this moment you can spell it lens or lense - interesting. To stay on the display topic - your Frontier shelf looks great TCracker - Now get some real estate pics of it and it will look massive!

    DRAT - My TS-80 turned away . . . Dear Sir, Sorry to inform you that the item was returned back to us, attached please find the photos. The post office divided that the item is the dangerous article, so it is not admissible by air, would you mind to have a refund for these 2 items? We are looking forward to your reply, and sorry for leading your inconvenience. Best regards, Mary - emotion-power
