DARKWIND

I say send in a stand off weapon or or send in a flight of drones, to test or (if possible) eliminate the planets upper atmosphere/arieal defenses.

Then send in a crushing bombardment, followed imediately by a fullscale invasion force consisting of heavy weapons and shock troops.

Having it contain and or eliminate small pockets of resistance

But never land my capital ships, ever!

(In case the locals decide to bring about a rebellion)

That way I can keep global fire support of my troops.

By using four mid-sized or heavy cruisers in a (N)pole to (S)pole, E hemisphere to W hemisphere standard orbit.

Keeping one carrier class vessle at a higher orbit for air support.

Stationing two more carriers with my larger capital ships in a lunar orbit.

While setting up a base on said moon(s) for deep space comms to my home planet.

Yes they are mighty small. . .

Trust me samurai m I lived there for 12 years (US Navy).

Most of the stuff in my collection I bought there at TRU Japan.

Yeah I love to mix and match with these figs.

I've got another Batman spread to post later.

And more from my material force troops.

I tell 'ya, these are what G.I. Joes should be.

Don't get me wrong I've still got the old figs but these guys just work better.

You guessed right.

Those are Microman Material force figs.

The weapons are from Elite Force 1/18 packs (figs and weapons).

I tell you it is sweet how good they work together.

Also there are a few Appleseed figs in there too.

Stay tuned. . .

More to come from Task Force RED, WHITE and BLACK

Tobikage!

It's from the anime.

I bought it from Big Bad Toy Store.

Get it while you can, they may be in short supply. . .

More shots. . .

Just a few for now, had to wait for a better camera. . .

More to follow. . .

I think HLJ is pretty good. . .

I've gotten multiple orders and items shipped in the same box.

And all came in good condition.

Very good indeed, it was well worth catching.

AHH Yes!!! TGS, those were the days. . . .

I have got to get orders back to Japan. . .

I may just rear my head too, since this will be like the first time I've had a chance to meet up with any of the MW gang!!

Well it seems you have learned finance rule #1 in the "Code of Squid conduct". . .

Rule #1 "The best way to live??? Why payday to payday of course! ! !"

Other rules are. . . .

Rule #2 "Always buy clean skivvies each payday, before you go out on liberty! ! !"

Rule #3 "Never borrow from a guy who never leaves the ship, cause he knows where you live! ! !"

Rule #4 "The ship's ATM is a blessing, either it can get you out on liberty faster or it's like that second bank account you forget about till you go other ports. . ."

I can pass on other "Nuggets of Navy Knowledge" to you from time to time if you need them. . .

I'll keep an eye out for you also. . .

But since it a yellow reorder at HLJ you might want to give it a try. . .

They have been really good at moving their orders as of late. . .

I finished out my collection through them, and it was worth it. . .

Sure they have issues (1st gen moto-bisars), but order the white one.

The bugs have been worked out of it. . .

Also there is a mod you can do using parts from another AMDriver fig, I just can't remember which one right now. . .

Gotta do a search over at ToyboxDX's BBS for that info. . .

They have a pretty long thread on those toys, problems and fixes for most. . .

All good info too. . .

Also, I suggest if you order from HLJ pay for express shipping. . .

The tracking on it alone is worth it

Welcome to the great American Yacht Club Shipmate!!!!

Choose wisely and live well

Choose poorly and spend your days swabing the decks . . .

Aw Hell, just be ready for fun and get to Japan first. . .

DC1 (sw) Darkwind

Bear in mind that transformers is trying to appeal to the kids....not us old nostalgic foggies who can't accept change. 

i'm liking Starscream very much. 

I totally agree !!!!

And Pro5, like you said

They just need to back off the kiddieness just a little not alot. . .

Ah well, That's what we have Binaltech for I guess. . .

I am kind of on the fence with this one. . .

I loved Car Robots with the exception of the Destronger Animals (IMHO not cool)

With that line I collected everything but those. . .

Armada, I almost skipped but I actually liked the small Convoy they released. . .

Energon, I felt was crap. . .

I only bought the special set with Convoy and chrome Kicker. . .

I was hoping that someday they would breathe some new/old life in to the line. . .

GF Convoy looks solid but, Master Megatron looks like he belongs back in Energon. . .

So I guess I will be sticking to my trend of only buying the "Convoy" for each series.

"Murph" or Murphy Canyon yup still the place just bigger. . .

I'm out near the Qualcom Stadium, But I work at 32nd st.

So anywhere in between is good I'll just use mapquest to find it anyway. . .

Anybody got an idea where I can find one in here San Diego? ? ?

Still kind of new here and looking to get one. . .

I have the blue one but want the red also, trying to get them all. . .

Cool!!

Now I just need to find a few 1/60 deck crews and and weapons.

Im leaning more towards the Asuka II. .

You know I thought about that too but I just want keep my 1/48's in a nice case. . .

The 1/60's can go in the garage in a ( my hands only ) diorama to make space in my room. . .

My overall toy collection is getting huge

First things first, the carrier. . .

Then the 1/48 Air/Space museum. . .

How long would a 1/60 scale carrier deck be, and how tall would the super structure need to be?

Need MW support with my new dream project. . .

Any ideas and suggestions would be great! !

Gotta place I can make it happen and free time.

True that and how the original MEGAS head looked like Optimus Prime.

Cool homage. . .

Finally I think I've got the hang of this

Maybe not,
