  1. At least the VF-2SS was prominently featured in a multi-episode OVA series, even if it's been retconned out of the main continuity, and could conceivably be customized for the numerous pilots shown to be flying them. And there's also the VF-2J Icarus, an offshoot though admittedly quite different in appearance and transformation, so not at all the same mold but still an attractive relation to the -2SS.

    Anyone have a pic of the VF-2J Icarus? A google search has proved fruitless. I have only a vague recollection of it in the Macross II ova since all the mecha action flashed by too quickly like the majority of all the other early 90s ovas.

  2. Cool, glad you liked it! I think the biggest thing is that it had been a long time since I watched the original Transformers show. The last time I saw the majority of it was Generation 2 and some reruns on Sci-Fi Channel. I've been steadily making my way through more of the DVD boxset, though, and getting more caught up. Let me know if there are particular episodes you'd like us to talk about. I was planning on just doing the multi-parters and maybe little ones here and there that were favorites of mine.

    I'd like to see most of the first season done. I have a lot of fond memories from it. The skyfire and insecticon "arcs" most noteably. Also the "five faces of darkness" 5 parter from season 3. The headmaster 3 parter that made up season 4 would probably be fun.

  3. My angel bird just came in a couple days ago and i love it. I basically just bought cause it was a good starting price for 1/48. I was pleasently suprised about how awesome it was considering i didn't care for the paint scheme. After buying this i definately want to pick up more 1/48s. The only bad thing is the right hand of the angel bird fell apart and broke without even touching it. I'm hoping this was a fluke event because the rest of the toy is awesome.

    What's interesting is how close together in size the 1/60 yf-19 is to the angel bird. I never noticed that the YF-19 was so much bigger than the VF-1 in comparison.

  4. I just got the Angel Bird 1/48 valkyrie and the right hand broke after just touching it. Trying to fix it made it worse. I really don't want to go to the hassle of returning it so does anyone reading have a spare set they'd be willing to part with? Thanks.

  5. I just wanted to say it's been a pleasure so far dealing with people on this board. It was kinda scary sending money to people over the internet but people like Godzilla and Kyp Durron have really made this experience enjoyable. Way better than dealing on ebay. Thanks again guys.
