The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post
KOG Water Dragon replied to Shawn's topic in Model kits
Revell did one. -
It depends on what studio animated the episode in question. Some episodes are reliably consistent, some are inconsistent, and some (as you rightfully point out) are laughably bad. Unfair and unrealistic, to be sure... particularly concerning the most problematic Glaug. 😅 The last few years been a golden age for both Macross and Mospeada fans, really.

Captain's log: Friday, April 18th, 2025. Great news everyone: the technical drawings are done! I'm planning-out the production of the various components, and I have a special request: some of the parts on this model, namely the missile pods, are very much on the limit of what my lathe can handle safely. As such, I would require someone skilled in 3D modelling to produce the files for these parts, based on my hand-drawn diagrams (with dimensions) so I can 3D print them. Please DM me if this is up your alley!

I completely agree here. Everything is inconsistent and the producers of kits and toys have to make a tough decision on size for scale. I think for those making a garage kit, they can choose their preference as well. It was the rubber robot generation. If Macross was consistent, then I’d feel like siding one way or another, but I’m happy to get some great products coming out from multiple companies in recent days. Actually I’m more excited for the franchise now than I had been for a few decades.

I don't think most kids and teens care for Star Wars these days....to get that crowd packed into the theatres, Lucasfilm needs to get tiktokers to start creating memes for the movie asap...worked for Minecraft!- 51 replies

Big s replied to Shawn's topic in Model kits
I’m a bit behind on Star Wars stuff, I just remember a ship and wasn’t sure about this one. It’s been hard to get into Star Wars stuff lately, so I tend to lose track of what’s out and what’s coming out -

Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu - May 22, 2026
TangledThorns replied to sh9000's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
The AT-AT for this film is the draft design from ESB. Watched the leaked trailer as well. At first I wasn't digging how it looks too much like the series with its VFX and cinematography but maybe that could be part of its appeal? I'll keep an open mind for now. Looking forward to sharing the official trailer with my children too.- 51 replies

Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu - May 22, 2026
Thom replied to sh9000's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I don't get the hate.😄 Mando and Grogu are usually very dependable for fun entertainment, and yes, though it feels like their story is finished, and you could leave it if you want and just ignore this, apparetnly they feel they have more of a story to tell for them. I'm interested to see what they do.- 51 replies

IDK, this is the first I've seen of a 1/48 kit of the 'hot rod' version. -
I was just going to post this too. Just got notice.

I get the hate but this movie will make mad money because of "baby yoda." I also predict this will be the first Star Wars film I take my children to.- 51 replies

I don't know if this deserves its own thread but HLJ sent this out in response to the US tariffs. Would a thread that collects the various stores' responses be warranted? tl;dr - As of April 20, 11pm EST, only EMS will be available for shipping to the US. And from a few days earlier (goes without saying, but the coupon code is expired):

Zero interest. Their story ended in season 2 finale. And the most interesting unanswered plot elements worthy of a movie was wasted in the book of Boba Fett and Mando season 3.- 51 replies

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
M'Kyuun replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I've seen retro Bee and Gears at my local Wally, but no G2 Grimlock (yet). I like that they gave Gears his G1 toy face, but it's disappointing that they didn't do the same for Bee- he's just cast in a different shade of yellow. What's odder still is that they used the Netflix Bee mold, with its licensed VW beetle mode instead of the SS86 mold which more closely resembles his G1 Choro Q chibi design. Having the regular releases for both of these guys, I passed on their retro releases, although I appreciate the card packaging with all the G1 art and tech specs. IMHO, they could just card today's figs, too, at least the deluxes. It would save on the amount of cardboard being used/tossed in the rubbish bin. And for those like me who keep the boxes, cards take up much less space than boxes.- 17066 replies

Casting Ryan Gosling is a wise choice. Ryan can be a fun or serious actor but will this be a fun or serious Star Wars film? I'm leaning towards the former which I'm fine with.- 9 replies
