It seems HG finally got a distributor for shadow chronicles http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/article.php?id=9232 apparently they got DR Movie who was involved with macross plus animation to work on it. BTW who is Kenji Terada? Is he some guy that came up with RT's story or was he a writer for one of the orginal shows? (macross southern cross mospeada)

BUMP! anybody see these at anime expo by chance? I'm almost to break down and spend the money

I always thought the worst sci-fi movies where Space Hunter:adventures in the forbidden zone, buckaroo banzai, and what ever begins with a sci fi channel original productions(aside from dune) THE WORST has to be Starship troopers 2 :hero of the federation

I don't think it matters now. I can't see how anyone would prosecute "national heroes"

To me this final was a big letdown you had a team from Italy that has most of its players under investigation for corruption vs. the french which well... I learned from bambi if you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all.

I think the name of the mag was hobbie modler or hobbie figure builder.

DAMMIT NOW I HAVE COMPETITION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been searching for the Mazinkaiser OVA for better of the past 3-4 years I only recently picked up the second volume at anime Boston, I still haven't found the first volume though. If you want the second volume I saw it again at a store called "The comic store in Nashua NH a couple of weeks ago.

None of those are it. As for how old the magazine is I have no clue it could very well be 3-4 years old. some of the stuff at tokyo kid I know has sat there for a long time.

I'm looking into buying some toys, figures, and model kits online and I'm wondering what stores are reputable and trustworthy. I already know about hlj.com and animecornerstore.com, what other sites do you guys recommend? Right now specifically I need a site that carries G-taste series 7 figures. A friend of mine wants me to do some repaints on two figures that are dressed as baseball players into yankees and red sox uniforms along with a reiko Nagase figure I got from the namco series. hlj.com has it for $61.94 USD and with shipping its almost a hundred. anbody know where I can get it cheaper without getting screwed? EDIT: heres a link to what I'm talking about http://www.hlj.com/product/EPO59653

I was in tokyo kid in boston yesterday picking up gashapon to kit bash with some gundam kits to make an attempt at custom Gundam "G" girls(basically repainting the figures and attaching HG and MG grade parts) when I saw on the cover of one of the hobby books a character that I thought would make a great Rick Dom. The problem is the book was $35.00 dollars and I didn't want to spend the money in case the mag didn't show who it was or the name was in japanese. The character was a woman with blond hair wearing a black military beret, black one piece swim suit outfit with holes(typical cleavage and navel areas) in it and was carrying a silver baton. At first I thought it was Cammie from street fighter except she didn't have and pony tails or the scars(camo???) on her face. She looked more mature than Cammie did too. Right now I don't have any pics but I hope to have some soon when I go back this weekend but until then I was hoping someone here might know or has the book I saw and can Identify her. Any hope would be appriciated. PS. let me know if you guys want a custom figure made like the character and the MS you want and I'll give it a shot and post my results here, also I'm toying with the idea of making valkyrie girls too, but the plastic for the mac kits require a lot more work than the gundam kits.

well I checked out the toy vault and ended up buying a lot of G.I Joes instead. I didn't buy the valk for the same reason (other than price) I didn't buy it at the con I think its fugly. I was hoping the vault would have other valks besides yours but to no avail. Still I was able to get the Slash ninja turtle my mom wouldn't buy me as a kid lol

LOL I bought the lemon of all valkyries, then again at least its true to its brownie coloring

hmmm so I roughly lost about 5 or 6 bucks that I can deal with

Am I the only one that thinks this movie was a turd and the movie needs to be redone from scratch?

I went to my first anime con at animeboston 2006 and heres some things I got (I only have descriptions right now- pics later) a perfect transformation VF-1s/a/j brownie from banpresto for $17 dollars three bubble cased SDF: macross thrid mission mini figs 3 for $10 ($6.00 apiece) VF-1s skull one strike type, VF-1a hikaru flash pack, and a VF-1a Max flash pack a 3 piece Miria figure set in zent flight suit Un spacy dress unform and some sort of dress in zent coloring $30 dollars (appears to fit in the yamato power armor) assorted Macross and robotech pins 5 dollars each (from 20th anniversary macross and I think a couple of the robotech defenders send aways) I also saw a red and orange valk fro what I think was from mac 7 I didn't get. from bandai and cost 75 dollars.

I got the idea for this thread after going back through the best starfighter thread and saw the links posted for some lego starships and I tracked it back to the whole collection here. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?m=DanJassim this guy is pretty amazing and puts my work to shame. Anybody know any links to stuff like it?

I actually liked this series. It had humor and good action with fanservice. Whats not to like? I think it was unfair for A-7 to judge this show after only 1 episode.

hmmm... Gratuitous sex graphic vilence and main charcters dying... it reminds me of Mike Stackpole. I should check this series out

I bought the boxset, and I thought it was pretty good but there must be something wrong with me because I found a lot of the series content hilarious. Like the token punkers and yakuza, who you know are going to get it.

Man it looks like that guy bought a hobbie store all by himself.

I don't suppose these old version figures are still available somewhere? You're also right about the price $40.00 these days gets me 10 marines and a bunch of parts that don't actually go with the marines I bought. (chaos and IG parts)

according to the FAQ I read the space marines are supposed to be the Imperial Fists in multiplayer, Ultramarines, and the Raptors which I have no Idea what they actually look like now that two books and the faq contradict each other. my old codex marines show the raptors as green with white eagle, which is whats in the game but the how to paint book gives them a blue and yellow scheme

No these were definatly Space Marines, the emblem was on the shoulder not the head and it wasn't the imperial two headed eagle, more like the head of an eagle on the back of a US quarter. in the intro they refered to each other as brother this and brother that. I thought they might be Dark Angels but the emblem doesn't match. EDIT:I checked the FAQ for the game at gamefaqs and it says they are the Raptors space marine chapter, but my how to paint marines book shows them with a blue and yellow scheme.

I've only recently gotten into warhammer 40k despite collecting and painting them for the past 10 years. I need some help with lore for designing my own armies so here are some things I'm wondering: What exactly is the space marines black carapace and why can't the battlesisters have it to fully use their power armour? Are battlesisters imprinted with a geneseed? Can Space Marines father children? I want to make a combined battle sister/space marine unit, as a cure to the blood angels black rage with a "Daughters of Sanguinius" adeptus sororitas unit mixed with a blood angels unit. I'm building a codex space marine army called the chosen men who are based on the british 95th rifles, the elite of the napoleonic wars. They were men chosen for courage and who excelled in combat. I want to have the lore set up that imperial guardsmen who distinguish themselves undergo the astartes recruitment process. As this is an experimental half strengh chapter, the chapter commander is an inquisitor and commisars have a roll in its leadership and likely purging if it becomes impure. Is there any advice you could give me or tips on making this work? Is there anything in the lore that makes this impossible? I'm working on a blood angels army and I'm confused on the shoulder colors. some pics I've seen have a black outline around the edges of the shoulder while others are just a solid red shoulder with the chapter badge. Which one is right? What is the marine chapter in green that appeared in WH 40K firewarrior? It looks like they had a white hawks head on their shoulders. Is the emperor dead, almost dead, a floating energy field, or what? I don't quite understand what happened when he accended to the golden throne. Has anything been told of what the two chapters were that had their records expunged from the codex of the original 20? What happened to the few that refused to join their brethren in becoming chaos space marines? Do they have anything to do with the legion of the damned? Are the Legion of the damned really the chapter that had its fortress monestary lost to the warp?

And Chameleon Sting. Are you sure about that? I'm pretty sure you want to use Rolling Shield on Vile, and Boomerange Cutter on the D-Rex. 366616[/snapback] You might be right about the Dino tank. When I played through on the PS2 collection version I used the electric shot it seemed more effective than the other weapons, but now that I think about it I don't think I even used the bommerang cutter. As for Vile the homing torpedo tracks him off screen andwhen he flies so all you have to do is concentrate on jumping, avoiding him ramming you or his gunfire, while the torps do all the work. EDIT: In case anyone is wondering a Kuwanger is the Japanese term for cockroach.
