  1. Good idea, I heard you have a lot of JAM around...
  2. A true work of art! Can you take a shot with a Tamiya paint jar or another universal dimension unit next to the model? Most people would not know how small the kit is.
  3. Somebody should have noted that the Major has bright blue eyes, too. The are featured quite prominently in Oshii's movie. She has no hood when she disappears in her jump from the building after the assassination in the anime. Artistic license at work here.
  4. I still have that nagging feeling that the movie might actually go the other way round with the Major finding out about her "true" past identity, to make her character more relatable. Or she is completely artificial and her past is a lie... does she dream of electric sheep?
  5. The great thing about those little Bandai kits is that you could easily pass them as studio scale models - after going through the hands of a competent modeler, of course.
  6. Yeah, we do never see that kind of stupidity in real life...
  7. I thought pop-culture was as inclusive as you can get, so I'm puzzled to see the fight over authorship, roots and other exclusive issues, or "control", if you will, on a race/nation base. I'm not denying that there are racial or cultural issues worthy of discussion, but IMO this movie is the wrong vehicle. More like people waiting for someone who pushes their button.
  8. Apparently, they can make all the boring stuff that has already been done by Fine Molds: Slave 1 in Jango Fett colors (next 1/144 kit) and the Jedi Starfighter (next Vehilcle Model).
  9. We probably get a 1/72 Falcon first, and then jump right into Ep 8 stuff...
  10. New Gundam "Tristan" from Twilight Axis
  11. Great eye candy in that clip! The cityscape looks like right from the animation, love the score, everything brings back some 80's style right into the future. Even if the movie turns out to be some kind of "best of GITS scenes cobbled together with some kind of plot", it will be fun to watch.
  12. We still end up with a lot of things so sort out in the last (?) two episodes. Will McG just go into orbit and kill Rustal with a Bazooka shot to the Bridge Char Aznable style? Will Iok go full circle and kill Mikazuki somehow? Will Gaelio kill Julia to spare her becoming the next Frankengraze? Who will survive, and what will be left of them... Oh and nice to see Azee has moved up within Teiwaz.
  13. Putty time for Mr. Viggen
  14. Watch out for the Zvezda ISD coming in April...
  15. They added a lot of detail to their Evangelion statues, without straying from the original design. Looks great, but the prices are far out there. http://www.taghobby.com/archives/173261
  16. Michael Fassbender is the Logan of the Alien franchise...
  17. Thanks, William. The kit is from Trumpeter, excellent fit and parts breakdown. The surface details are a bit strong compared to Hase, but look very good if you dial down the panel wash a bit with overspray. Legend has it that the J-10 was developed from the IAI Lavi. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10366014 Hobbysearch's price seems a bit high, though, I can get the kit locally for about 27 Euro.
  18. Works on Harriers, too
