  1. How well does the bluing hold up on unhardened steel? or did you go the extra-extra mile and harden them?
  2. no, but the shape seems all kinds of not right to me... for comparison: http://anime.astronerdboy.com/wp-content/uploads/blogger/_abkMP58OLUA/TKLzuinarNI/AAAAAAAAViQ/k0Sovr6ORVY/s1600/02%2BHikaru%2Band%2BMinmei.jpg man, they really were all over the place in the original art, weren't they?
  3. Symmetrical splinter? What will those Swedes think of next... lol what a pretty little thing!
  4. Very Nice! I like the subtle weathering.
  5. I'll check my stash, I should have a few spare VF-1A heads in 1/72. you don't care about which kit they're from [ie: what colour plastic they're in]?
  6. You need to add the word "combat" to your link the D-21 was an earlier supersonic unmanned drone, but it didn't do combat.
  7. Ma.K.ross? I'd watch that!
  8. What a great pair of stills! RIP Mr Plumer, you'll be missed dearly.
  9. the hardpoints are visually identical [or very near]. so you just mount it to the hardpoint like a Yamato or HMR: gently push-on to the hardpoint and twist for alignment... unless I'm doing it wrong.
  10. HAHAHA... yea, that's what happens when I'm tired-shopping after a double-shift...
  11. Another at Manda [Complex] for 27K https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1153289708&ref=list&keyword=マクロス&lang=en aaaaaaaaaaaaaand gone...
  12. Ah, looks vs the laws of physics, the eternal struggle of all action on film.
  13. The gun on the F-14 tomcat is mounted angled up several degrees. It's VERY beneficial in a dogfight, and lets you get a lot of range out of the canon on a strafing run. The mounting point for the gunpod being slightly flexible makes a lot of sense, and is backed up in the DYRL opening dogfight, when Hikaru scores an off-bore gun kill on a battlepod.
  14. I think I just Scored that one ... "Order Status Checking the stock"
  15. I've shipped multiple things through the pandemic from HLJ. yes they ship, yes it's only expensive options [at least for me in Canada, YMMV]
  16. Looks good.
  17. Back on track though: do we expect the release to be at the end of the month? [barring any further delays?]
  18. This is all disappointing to hear, since the first one was pretty damned good...
