I think I've asked Kicker what he does for work before, and I don't remember the answer, but I'd like to know if there are any openings available?

Maybe instead of a sliding panel just use a swappable panel with pins in it or something? That would simplify moving parts. Or would that compromise in another way? It's funny, the idea you have here for the swappable HMM's was actually the only solution I could come up with when I asked you what it was you were trying to do.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Except for me, I own three of them. -
I'm greedy, I want it all.

I agree, someone else complained it was "jumping the shark" to use all of that referential material but I thought it was done really well.

I've only seen the episode from last night but so far it seems decent.

I really enjoyed this season opener.

It proves nothing.

What sorts of moving panels are coming up? I think everybody would vote for rubber wheels but whatever makes life easier for you (unless you're a perfectionist) is probably the smartest idea. You've done more than any of us here anyway. What do you mean by make mini-HMMs? Where would you put them? Aren't they all internal payload anyway?

You probably should put those others into the group as well, because they're aren't niche. No, TRU doesn't sell Macross, because it's a niche product sold at niche stores. The collectors market is niche by definition, that makes the store niche as well. Niche fandom, market, item and store. Guess what, some of the Yamato/Arcadia/Bandai Macross toys are also listed on Amazon right now, does that suddenly make them mainstream because they're on the BIGGEST website on the planet? No, and everybody knows who Amazon are.

Thank you. Great information for people to consider. I've mentioned several times that 3P can sell Transformers toys to a world wide market. I just didn't explain the concept of spreading costs around like you have here. There are so many more fans of that property out there that it's easy to spread costs around on larger runs. BBTS is niche dude, even if they sell some widely circulated things like Marvel Legends and Transformers. The store itself isn't know to the greater majority. Toys R Us, everybody knows Toys R Us. BigBadToyStore... only a small minority, even if it is a majority of collectors, still makes it niche.

Dude, you're an absolute bad-ass!

I humbly submit

The Dx valks aren't really in scale. All of the 25's are a bit too small as well. Regardless, this design here is awesome and spot on.

Custom GBP for 1A Max?

Very cool, now the regult is something I've really been waiting for. I hope those knee joints hold up, looks like an interesting mechanism there.
-
It would be a colossal mistake (not necessarily impossible) to leave the Skull Markings off. They haven't on any of their other releases so I can't see them suddenly doing that here.
-
Given that you can type in 3D Printing Molds and come up with that website as the very first link I'm going to assume Xigfrid is ignorant of any of the manufacturing process but is trying to argue his point anyway, did a cursory Google search and that was the first link that came up.

You're not confusing paint rub for stress marks are you? The tabs on the legs are painted and the paint will come off when tabbed in and out of the backpack.
-
It was questionable on the previous releases with the super parts as well.

A Newly Translated Story: The Plundering Fleet

I've changed my mind, totally not worth it. -
Not that much bigger, really. The RVF drones are over half the length of a VF-1 on their own. Almost 10 meters to a VF-1's 14.

Everybody should listen to the podcast about this issue.

I have no idea, I can't read Japanese and have no idea what the story is about. It would be your call. -
A Newly Translated Story: The Plundering Fleet
Mommar replied to Gubaba's topic in Movies and TV Series
Well, given that you even you even said that there wasn't much going on with this story I figured I'd support your translation work (because i do appreciate it) but agree with you that certain things probably don't need full translations. I didn't know you were going after every story there is for your own personal growth as well. If you want it all done, go for it, I'll read it. I just felt in the grand scheme of Macross it wasn't really important. I'll add that your use of language is far superior to many fan translated pieces I've read, I finished this story only because I appreciated how easily it read. As for your comment Renato, I'll say it right to his face.
