  1. IMO the grey parts accentuate the new IP parts for this kit. And on your enhanced screenshot we can see that the cockpit is the same as Brera's. Here's the shot from Ep 16
  2. From the screenshots I have, all 3 VF-27 in the show are the "Kai" versions (with the "Ears"). It's a bit difficult to tell if the green ones actually have different cockpit viewports. Maybe Bandai just used green plastic for the test shots since it is closer to the final appeareance.
  3. I'm not contradicting you there. Also, the Navi have help from inside the Marines. And it looks like they attempt a decapitation strike against the "Boss Ship".
  4. I liked "Sky Captain", too, and I'd love to see another cool retro future movie like "Rocketeer". I just don't see how it could come from a 5 minute CG short like this.
  5. It's easy to foresee that someone thinks the diplomatic solution takes too long/costs too much money/endangers "national security", so they go for the "blow up poo" option.
  6. Kind of - there is a pretty large headshot in one of the later episodes. But it's the same head as Brera's, only green.
  7. Impressive CGI, but does the world need another "Sky Captain meets ID4" movie?
  8. Idolo gets some TRONlines
  9. Hurry up before Bandai releases the 1/72 VF-171
  10. More Tommy & Monster
  11. Here are the pics attached Unfortunately, the next kit release will be the Tornado pack, so we won't see the Q-Rea before spring, if ever. Still wondering if they pull off the 1/48 VF-25.
  12. Here is the Flickr album with more pics of the 1/48 and the Idol Master F-14.
  13. I hate to burst your bubble, but the Minerva is a toy from Wave, in the same scale as the old Takara plastic kit, but even more ridiculously priced than those ebay offerings. http://www.hlj.com/product/WAVCJ-01 (There is still a slight chance at a 1/72 Fighter 1 if a certain someone gets his prioritys straight...) The Tomahawk is 1/72, btw.
  14. Let me just sneak in this pic of the beautiful Minerva But there are also new photos of the Wave Tomahawk:
  15. Pics from Dengeki Hobby Magazine
  16. You can get the Platz Sylphid and F-27 at reduced prices AND with free express shipping! http://www.hlj.com/product/PLZX-10 http://www.hlj.com/product/PLZX-11
  17. It also had missiles mounted at the sides of the fuselage and drop tanks on top of the wings!
  18. From Dengeki: What is happening at the Battroid's shoulders??
  19. New pics of the VF-27 from Bandai: http://bandai-hobby.net/macross/goods/vf_27.shtml Looks like you could build it with a clear canopy sine the structure there is just markings. What's up with the different chest armors?
  20. I think this also deserves a honorable mention due to the structural insanity level: http://www.fantastic-plastic.com/XAB-1%20BETA-1%20PAGE.htm
  21. 100% awesome. An epic piece of work.
  22. The last time I saw a Cameron movie that had marines, dropships and Sigourney Weaver was great fun, so this is already a winner.
  23. Anybody going for this big guy? 1/48 Nu Gundam bust
  24. Half of the appeal of the movie is that the children are amateur actors, but do play their instruments and the background singing. Inspiring, indeed. The other half is Jack Black.
