Looks like a good time to pick up the 1/60 Vermillion squad not to mention the 1/60 VF-0A and Ghost available. Sure would look nice against my Nora and Roy Fokker with Ghost. If there was an Ivanov on sale I would sooo be on that like a fat kid with a cupcake.

I need to get an aoshima tread to match my blue legioss. I only wish the Toynami blue beta matched the Aoshima legioss in color. I got all the other Alphas and betas (toynami) and really could use that dark beta. Now only if a correct reissue of the alphas would happen.....

Hmmm a vf-22s Miria is very tempting.

I don't know if would look better with the rear bumper on. Just saying lol

Underground Racing has a new vehicle to work on. Ferrari 458. http://www.undergroundracing.com/car-gallery/ferrari/195-ferrari-458-twin-turbo.html They make some nice twin turbo Gallardos. So for anyone that wins the lottery, that is one thing you can pick up. F458.bmp

If you guys are interested in knowing about the space jockey, a partial origin was given in the Old Dark Horse comics Aliens. IIRR it was Alien Earth Wars. I'd have to dig into my comic book collection to find it as its been quite a few years since I read them but basically the planet on Aliens was indeed the alien homeworld(although Dark Horse comics would change that in the future). The aliens suffered from a unknown planet devastation but they are intelligent. Recall how they cut the power off in Aliens. I got the impression the state the aliens were found in was somewhat comparable to what man would be living like in the event of a major catastrophe. Another space jockey is introduced and does appear to help the humans. At the end of the series, Newt(this takes place before Alien 3) got a vision from the space jockey and learned a little about them. They harbor the same emotions as man including the desire to conquer. I never saw Dark Horse do anything else with the space jockey but Dark Horse generally did a pretty good job with the Alien comics. And then Alien 3 came out. One question I have is how much of the comics would a prequel try to institute into the film? AVP was based off the AVP comics (the comics were quite a bit more satisfying btw) http://www.darkhorse.com/Search/aliens

Great pics! Klan looks amazing. I'm trying to resist buying.

There was a real sharp black Challenger at the Dodge Dealership a few minutes from my home. Its a large car and comes with a rather steep pricetag but it is good looking, sounds good and just cries out for a set of deepdish rims.

I got three of them when I order the 1/60 yf-22 that was on clearance. They sent me 3 VF-22s none of the quedlaunn-raus.

The Boss is mostly for those wanting a more sharper Mustang to take to road courses so it will be a be more focus on that aspect. Not sure about the other two more limited versions of the 302 called the Boss laguna Seca and the 302r (race only version). I'm looking forward to the next Mustang coming out in 2014. I miss my old 2003 Cobra not to get another Mustang.

Thats the one. I could use a few in 1/60 scale and bring on the green Queadluun-Raus too.

A thread like this makes me miss my 2003 Mustang Cobra more. I only lightly modified her but it was good for over 450 rwhp and 473 ft-lbs of torgue and 11 second timeslip. Maybe a 2014 Mustang will help fill that void.

The Toys R Us in Baton Rouge had about 6 of the new AT-ATs for $89.99. Extremely tempting to pick up.

I just picked up my missile regult from my local comic book shop I ordered through Diamond. I'm really enjoying them and sure wish for more Zentraedi mecha and lets not forget our dear Invids now. On the episode "Farewell to Big Brother" what was those green non-transformable Zentraedi aircraft? I'd like to have a couple of those to with my Roy Fokkers. If toynami would do a larger scale like a 1/60 or even just a 1/72, please include a nice poseable figure and not like the figure Yamoto stuck with the Queadlunn-Rau.

From my past experience in the Navy, I can easily see a place for both laser and rounds. One aspect I can see lasers doing is in a missile defence system. When an anti ship missile is speeding its way towards a ship, guns can shoot it down BUT the speed and relatively short range of the gun, allows that explosion to come a bit too close for comfort. Now a laser could strike further away and nullify that effect. With that in mind guns will have a place far into at least this century as they can still do what missiles and lasers can not do such as fire warning shots, shore bombarded and rapid close range strike. I also feel that the Navy brass may be a bit cautious about replacing guns outright looking at the Air Force's experience with gunless F-4s in Vietnam.

I know the feeling. My YF-21 came in from the clearance sale on Overdrive, and it is an impressive piece compelling me to buy a VF-22S. HJL has that 70% off shipping sale makes the Max and Milia a tough choice for me.

I just ordered a 1/60 YF-21 from Overdrive(finally!) and would love a VF-22 as Hobby Link is having a reduced shipping sale. I just have no idea which one to get. I already have Milia's Queadlunn-Rau with figure and her VF-1 but no Max at all yet. I might just get the Milia VF-22 and finish out all the aircraft she has flown the work on Max.

I go tmy VF-0s with ghost booster from them. It didn't take long to ship either which was a plus. The only drawback is the shipping which is a bit high but no way to get around high shipping when ordering something across the planet.

Good idea, I'll do that.

I'll try over-drive.com then. Now if I just knew if the Ivanov they have is a good one or not.

I c. Tisinc99.com has the VF-0A with booster for $170. I'm not too sure about that one. Its too bad about the Macross Zero figures having so many headaches as they are surely very striking. I would like to get the rest of Macross Zero line but I am not familair with what they are releasing and when.

Seems conflicting perspectives on the VF-0A Shin with Booster. Are these out now good or just an accident waiting to happen?

Speaking of Beta Fighters, I wonder if the Toynami MPC will be able to handle the extra weight. They look nice but do not like being manipulated much especially the missile bays on arms and legs. They tend to break. As for repaints, I can not see the difference, unless my computer and eyesight are failing me, between a Sue Graham Alpha and Marcus Shadow fighter.

I found it at Hobby Link Japan for $185. I have not seen it cheaper but I am still checking a few sites out.

Ok so I see the 1/48 Roy and the 1/60 VF-0s with Ghost booster is settled. What about the SV-51? Is there a difference between the SV-51r and SV-51Y? Is Ivanov fixed yet?
