I'm telling you guys, 30,000 to 32,000 yen.

I just compared this thing to my VF-19F, the neck thickness looks to be exactly the same from the side profile. On more inspection, because of color, the location/shape of the wingroot and the intakes it slightly exposes more of the belly of the plane. Combine that with the fact it's a prototype and the portion forward of the landing gear is drooping a little I think there's a bit of optical illusion going on. The VF-19 has a bit of a bump in that same location as well.

It kinda reminds me of Patlabor actually...

I think for a "perfect transformation" the top cannons would actually be the easiest to implement. The bottom missiles maybe. That cannon on the side of the arm though... It would just have to be severely undersized. Though I suppose if you had an attachment like what Maiden has here you could make the missiles and the side cannon actually partially recess into that connector piece so there would be less to cover... even still you're not shaving much off and things would have to be smaller. Then again worrying about keeping the proportions from that bit of animation wouldn't make much sense anyway. Look how HUGE the uni-boob is in that sequence! There was no attempt at proportion there.

I was going to say, you should put this thing up on Cuuso and see if you can get paid for the design.
-
That is awesome!!! I find it amusing that it has an awful lot of overlap between the VF-1 and the VF-2SS (Leg positioning in fighter mode, mostly.) Oh wow, you have super packs and radomes and armor done for it too! This thing looks like a real bruiser as well. You should make a video of it transforming/moving around, so we can get a better idea how it works.

They could always make it web exclusive however the selling poorly thing is likely their own fault for half-assing this release. Too many people think it isn't really enough of a renewal to care, and who could blame them.

The more I look at it the more I'm thinking I need to track myself down a 30th Anniversary 29.
-
The 30th Anniversary scheme is already not canonical so all of that other stuff goes out the window.
-
I think bhchan is suddenly making a run for "master" now.
-
Wow, what are you going to do with 3 30th Anniversary valks?

MickyG's Yamato VF-1S Unpainted, Unassembled Kit Build
Mommar replied to mickyg's topic in The Workshop!
Hey micky, I just checked out my own 30th Anniversary Valk. B13 is black plastic with a tiny bit of white painted on the front edge so it doesn't suffer any sort of scratching like in that photo Addict posted. -
Well, at the very least we now know, to everyone who hates him, he either doesn't care what you think or can play you all off as crazy in interviews.

Don't forget 171 Super Parts are this month. 25G Super parts and 25A next month, then RVF Super in Nov and Isamu 29 in Dec.

I'd love to see everybody's different take on design.

Likely one of the reasons Arcadia (and Yamato before them) didn't bother. On the other hand, if those cover plates were hollowed out Maiden Japan could get the look of the top and side forearm cannons to look more recessed/better. The missiles would just have to be re-sized down in order to keep the look the same top to side to bottom. But, yeah, pretty much impossible without severely undersizing/oversizing open/closed. It amuses me how many people were complaining Arcadia didn't make one of these for the new 19 and actually claimed you could make one that would transform and stay on in fighter mode as well. From the screens in the show it looks like those covers all stay as one single piece. Looking at other lineart it appears the angled parts at the front actually swivel up as well, that would make the whole thing more likely to work, but you'd still have to fudge dimensions. The size of the missiles on the bottom are not uniform however. The center one is obviously smaller than the rest, except in the animation it appears the bottom two are slightly smaller.

Star Trek Into Darkness, in theaters May 17, 2013
Mommar replied to UN Spacy's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
You must be forgetting the entire Dominion War storyline in DS9 then. They had several different episodes with entire fleets of ships engaged with each other. I especially remember the Defiant leading the charged flanked by some Galaxies, and a much larger force in tow. Hell, on of the Galaxy-class vessels pulled a barrel-roll (which was cheesy.) -
The "Real" Giant Robots... by Fred Patten

Right at the beginning of the article he says, "here are a few of my favorites." It's by no means meant to be exhaustive. -
All Things Videogame Related: EXTREME VS!!
Mommar replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I actually have bucketloads of classic games, I'm just not sure how, other than being able to plug it in to my receiver via HDMI, it really matters if I can play these old games on my TV. Those old pixel games lose their charm without all of the scan-lines/etc. -
While Stallone already did Rocky, there will be that comparison as he's playing another boxer here (both of them, but more people will remember Stallone), what's wrong with the rest of the movie/story/etc? Obviously it's geared in a different direction then Rocky was, plus there's a lot of talented actors, and there seems to be some genuine attempt at comedy. I could see someone old and beat up like my Dad really enjoying it, which I presume is why this whole movie is being made, for people his age. If anything the trailer is cut well.

Considering I don't care for the Battroid mode on the 21/22 I've never seen seen the faces on my Gamlin/Max 22's. For all I know I could have the same problem and not know it.
-
As far as we can tell, yes.

I think most of the hate are from people in the US who don't have to jump through those customs loops. I personally think there's no justification for it and I've appreciated every single thing I've been able to order via Nippon-Yasan. Then again I don't really care about "saving" money by shipping by EMS because the post office around these parts loses/breaks things so i find it more economically feasible to pay extra for Fed Ex everywhere I shop.
-
That's what I was saying. It's as far along as the VF-4 was by this point. I would wager a New Years release.

My CF has been living with Gerwalk. Despite being told it's easy to figure out I still haven't been able to pinpoint where the screws are holding on all of these exploding black triangles.
