	  Star Trek Into Darkness, in theaters May 17, 2013Mommar replied to UN Spacy's topic in Anime or Science Fiction There's that ham-fisted, "I think you're the greatness, Kirk", stuff. Not much of a good look at the new ship. So far it's a love/hate sort of thing. "I'm sorry" pretty much sums up the saying "hell is truth realized too late."

	I think the Ozma scheme would sell better than the rest. Looking at those screen shots I kinda wish somebody who had the game could post photos of all the Valks/Schemes/Modes from the game for those of us who don't own it and/or won't purchase Sony products.

The only thing I'd recommend is trying to trim some of the larger stickers a little more intricately, such as the giant UN Spacy decals. It's a bit of a pain but it's relatively easy to completely trim out each letter so there aren't any visible sticker edges. But that's just me, I'm very picky about how my decals look. Also, that head on shot. God does that Basara pilot look awful. It looks like it's being piloted by a Muppet.

	Wow, I hadn't checked HK in awhile. Even Max and Kaki's DYRL 1A's are gone now.

	  Restoring whites on sun damaged yellowed Yamato VF-1Mommar replied to plastik's topic in The Workshop! Paint them.

	Oh does it? That's right, it came out after they fixed the crotches but got mixed in with the problematic shoulder pins still.
- 
	The VT-1, on first release, had the shoulder problem. A lot of people had waited on several of the releases to be sure there weren't any issues and the VT-1 was verified to have one so people skipped it. They want a rerelease with the fixed crotch and the shoulders that are good and it's never happened. It did also sell out pretty fast as well. Not like a new Bandai, but pretty fast. On the other hand I'm wondering why the 11C is suddenly in such high demand as it languished on shelves for years. I was able to buy a second and third version for much cheaper than retail during one of HLJ's Christmas sales a year after it was released.
- 
	Yeah, I thought there was a new update too. I really wanted to see this thing completed.

	NY knows there's a foreign audience who are used to paying higher prices. At this point they don't even have to clear out any of the other online retailers. All they need to do are clear out the shops around their warehouse and they'll be the only one's with stock available online after the first twenty minutes. I very much doubt they're buying up every item from every other online portal, since most of them have order limits that would be way too cumbersome, but I bet they know the higher prices will still move and have been making sure to pick up as many domestically as possible.

	Maybe it doesn't look as stylish as the anime but it's a cool attempt at a real world re-creation.

	They do not fit super tight on my Alto 171. But I was thinking more that the plastic might actually bend.

	I'm wondering how heavy those MDE's are. Those wings might bend a little bit.

	I think in this case you probably just got really unlucky with a piece that wasn't cast right. I haven't heard of anybody else (fingers crossed) who has had that problem. It sucks, but I think you have a truly unique defect. It'll be interesting to see if your F also has the issue though I would be terrified to take any of these newer toys apart. You're a brave man.

	Geeze Kuri, you're a monster! I'd love to see you whip something like this out in person. You're so fast.

	Hopefully Kawamori will get a look and tell them "no" or something.

	I suppose there's always the possibility someone will point out they have the colors wrong and change them. They aren't due out until September anyway.
- 
	Yeah, they figured out how to sell these again by adding the extra bombs. I wasn't interested in more armor parts but the bombs I do want.
- 
	Posing in Battroid is okay, if fiddly. Until you try to pick it up and the top half separates from the bottom. Fighter holds together well if you can tolerate the gullet. Gerwalk is a huge pain and I skip it... maybe only slightly more often then the VF-19 version of Gerwalk. I usually keep mine in Battroid and just don't pick it up much as I personally feel it's the least objectionable looking of the three modes.
- 
	The plastic on the 19's is different. The other two major issues are that the plastic is thin on the wings and can be easily bent/damaged (in addition to being a bit translucent as Scyla pointed out) and the Gerwalk joint in the thigh can be easily snapped, though it hasn't happened in awhile, because it only clicks down three times but seems like (and there should be... but that would further show how poorly designed the ankles are) a fourth click and there isn't.
