    @MechTech & @Papa Rat btw: thanks. I often test around with test prints to see how color or specific glue is holding to them. Except for the bumps, I think I've got the proper primer and color now for properly doing paintjobs on resin prints.

    I can see what you mean. I might feel bad for Himari. I still think Rion is a much better person.

    Take the bench outside when it’s nice out and spray on some crappy rust-oleum primer and see how it goes.

    That’s more than I care to remember about that horrible movie. I really don’t plan on ever rewatching it. It’s kinda sad because I actually liked the first movie.

    I don’t know if it ever really had a theater run, I only remember it kinda late night on HBO or Cinemax around the nineties

    That sucks. Unfortunately things are crazy right now. The price on the Glaug seems to be only mid thirties just for the kit, but a lot of sites unfortunately seem scared by shipping and have really boosted that part of the cost or eliminated certain methods that may end up higher during the shipping process. basically rough times for collectors and model builders, with a lot of uncertainty on the way. I’m even getting emails from big U.S. sites like BBTS that they may have to almost charge triple for everything they get since most of their products come from places with tariffs or extra high tariffs

    Those details look phenomenal.

    Man, yeh, that stinks! I REALLY want to try the 1/48 Low Vis VF-1A Un Air Force kit as my ONE and only 1/48 fighter model from SDF Macross, but I can get the Rickaru VF-1J TV version off Amazon for $43 free Prime shipping and just do a low vis paint scheme I guess....

    Like Rogue One, it's a more mature kind of Star Wars story that eschews a lot of the inherently self-limiting concepts found elsewhere in the franchise. Aiming just for the hardcore fandom is a self-limiting strategy too... you have to try new things if you want to bring in new viewers, and the various tropes surrounding the Jedi and other Force users are so old and so well-trodden that they feel quite stale. My earnest hope is that Andor's second season will prove that Star Wars doesn't NEED the glowstick society to be embedded in every aspect of storytelling to succeed. It's a big galaxy, and the Jedi can't be involved in everything interesting or momentous going on. Andor was one of those few Disney+ titles that steadily gained viewers as it went, rather than losing them with each episode. With reviewers raving about it (a 98% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes so far), and the series being pretty favorably looked-upon in general, I have a good feeling about season two.

    @nightmareB4macross - the work space looks like totally not finished yet! Soon! 😂

    General Hux wasn't a spy all along. He started leaking intelligence to the Resistance after the events of The Last Jedi because he hates Kylo Ren and Kylo Ren took over the First Order in The Last Jedi after he assassinated Supreme Leader Snoke. Like he tells the main characters, he doesn't really care who wins anymore he just needs Kylo Ren to lose. It's basically a lazy and less interesting version of ISB agent Kallus's defection to the Rebel Alliance that occurred in Rebels around the time work on The Rise of Skywalker started. He was the rebellion's man on the inside in Thrawn's organization, but unlike Hux his change of heart was more genuine and after being outed he escapes to work for the rebellion full-time. Seems like that's the idea... the great and feared Grand Admiral Thrawn dramatically returns and gets beaten into the ground like a tent peg, affirming the New Republic's existing belief that the remaining Imperials are no real threat.

    Imagine my pain as I have 15 things I need to ship waiting at HLJ. Some in pretty large boxes. Glaug, 1/48 YF-19 w/ fast pack, VF-0S gerwalk, VF-171EX Armored...

    Neat! Grabbed a couple copies today. Some of that art is new to me... mainly the ones that look like evolutions of the Armored Gerwalk from the original series concept art.

    Ouch

    Witch Watch's 3rd episode has cemented my first impression of the series... it's basically a less-ecchi version of To Love Ru. Nico is just Lala if you substitute magic for alien tech... a pink haired girl with no common sense not-so-innocently cohabitating with the guy she wants to marry, and causing havoc each episode because her lack of common sense will inevitably drive her to turn a small problem into a huge one by supernatural means she doesn't fully understand or can't fully control. It's funny once or twice... but without another payoff (a decent joke, some ecchi, something) it quickly becomes frustrating esp. when the "solution" was obviously never fit for purpose in the first place. Morihito's straight man routine is practically the only thing keeping me watching. At 4 episodes, Catch Me at The Ballpark! is still a rather bland slice of life series. A good slice-of-life series should be mundane on some level since it's meant to be everyday life... but this series is mundane in a way that isn't interesting. It has no "hook". Nothing to get the audience engaged in the daily life of the characters. They're just ballpark staff doing ballpark staff things. There are a few interesting/amusing moments like the American player who's initially keen to return to the American leagues but decides to stay because he develops a crush on the gyaru vendor girl mid-game, or the ballpark announcer with a crush on one of the players who accidentally confesses in her banter while announcing the home team's starting lineup. Most of its is borderline white noise, though.

    Hopefully temporary. The other shipping services were suspended due to the tariff issues.
  23. nightmareB4macross
    That’s a really clean set up. what does the work space look like?

    I’m still salty that Bandai didn’t continue the TMNT line. I want a 6" cartoon accurate Shredder and this one looked so good.
  25. Papa Rat
    Oh yeah! 👍 OCD game on point.
