  1. More excited for the regular head version.
  2. Screwed up the sticker sheet when building the VF-171 last night........urghhhh. on the VF-31J a couple of days ago I used a pair of tweezers to remove the stickers from the sheet and they came of easily. However, for the VF-171, I think the sticker sheet was not properly die-cut, as most of the stickers didn't want to come off and I tore and twisted some trying to remove them. Luckily I was able to remove the VF-171's cockpit canopy sticker without problems, but all the others gave me grief. So my VF-171 is mostly bare with just the panel lines done and only two stickers successfully applied (canopy) and the black V on the back-plate. Oh well, still looks OK and these kits are only temporary cheap holdovers until the DX toys and TomyTecs come out, just so I have something hold in my hand to zoom around......hahaha Graham
  3. Interesting, so as standard the Sv-262's Ghosts are armed with a single dorsal cannon and 4 x micro-missile launchers. But in episode 4, the dorsal cannon has obviously been replaced by the multi-drone jamming system.
  4. I definitely prefer the look of the SV-262Ba's head. I'm not usually a fan of Gerwalk mode, but it looks awesome in those pics.
  5. That's the vibe I got, it's like me as a Brit recognising the Prime Minister of England. Didn't get the feeling that there's a relationship there, more just that he's a well known public figure on Windermear, so Freyja recognised him.Of course I could be wrong.
  6. Interesting, hadn't noticed. Perhaps the main cannons are actually inside the Arm carrier ships? Although that would limit internal hanger space.
  7. The Deadfish Mp4 file plays fine from a USB stick in my LG Blu-ray player, whereas the GG .mkv file has lots of artifacts. Both Deadfish and GG play fine using MX Player on my Samsung Android phone.
  8. Maybe the Windermerean's not only have short lifespans due to their extreme physical abilities, but also physically age faster? So someone in their 20s looks like they are in their 40s? Depending on the timespan of the series, this could potentially lead to Freyja aging during the course of the show, if my theory is correct.
  9. Confirm there are no stickers for the inside of the tail fins and no stickers for the underside of the fighter. My middle-age eyes had a bit of a problem lining up the panel lines on the stickers with the panel lines on the plane last night.........hahaha. I guess I should have waited until the weekend to build the kit in my sitting room in daylight conditions rather than building it at night in my bedroom.......LOL
  10. Yeah, just because NUNS hasn't been shown on Ragna yet, doesn't mean they are not there.
  11. Here's some crappy phone camera pics of the VF-31J I put together last night. The stickers are actually very adhesive and not the foil type.
  12. Maybe Messer should get laid by Chuck's hot sister. That'll probably release some of the repression and make him more resistant against Var. Unless he's batting for the other team and pining for Keith, if you know what I mean.....haha
  13. Ha, those screenshots were taken using the MX Player app on my Android phone. Luckily the adds only show when I pause the video to take a screenshot. Thankfully no adds when playing the video. Great app, plays pretty much any type of video. Yeah, I was also thinking that may be the reason it looked like he nearly went Var. So we're probably heading to an inevitable episode where Messer turns Var and has to be put down by either Mirage or Hayate. Probably Mirage as he told her not to hesitate so she won't this time. I bet there will be pineapple somewhere in that episode and lots of tears!
  14. Interesting, the VF-171 is referred to as the Rim World Model.
  15. Haha, yeah I was also wondering how high he was above the crowd. It would have been kinda funny if he'd been blowing them all over and frying them without realizing.
  16. None of the 6 model and toy/hobby shops I visited even knew about them. As usual, gazillions of Gundam kits everywhere but almost no Macross.
  17. Mine just arrived this morning. Will build at the weekend.
  18. Finally had a chance to watch the subbed version last night, watched it 3 times last night and once this morning. Watched both the GG and Deadfish versions (subs appear to be identical for both). Some comments and observations: 1) Wondering what are the egg-like things on the bridge of Roid's ship? Vajura eggs perhaps? 2) Messer seems to be much more susceptible to VAR syndrome than the other members of Delta Squadron and seemed to be fighting very hard not to succumb this episode. 3) Nice to see the back mounted beam guns being fired several times. 4) So Windermerean's have extreme physical abilities, which is what caused their shorter lifespan (the candle that burns twice as bright, burns half as long). This explains Freyja's extreme jump in a previous episode. I bet they are gonna be beastly in hand to hand combat. 5) In the series proper, we haven't seen the multi-drone chargers used yet (only in mission 0.89). So if the multi-drones are now useless, then we'll never see the chargers used.......haha. Maybe the charger section of the pod will be replaced with a missile launcher. Or more likely, Delta and Walkure will find a way to overcome the jamming to allow the drones to be used. 6) Unless the subs are wrong or missing stuff, I didn't see any mention of Windermear laying claim to Protoculture. The subs only had him addressing "children of Protoculture" (which is basically every humanoid race) and declaring war on NUNS.
  19. Damn, can't find these anywhere in Hong Kong and the ones I ordered from HLJ seem to be lost in transit.
