Speaking of which, can I interest anyone in this beautiful kit? I preordered the massive 1:60 garage kit, so I don't think I'll be putting this one together... ๐ค It's got a ton of articulated PVC joints (all those black runners at the top)... ๐ Nice, crisp details... ...and these intricate resin pilot figures. ๐ Make me an offer.

We don't talk about your photos much, Mike, but they're always brightly-lit, sharply focused, and efficiently cropped, frequently combining multiple pics into a single image for practicality. Your Quintus Prime review is notable in how well the lighting highlights the translucent parts. I love the effect TakaraTomy has achieved combining paint and tinted clear plastic in various shades, and your photography demonstrates it well.- 17896 replies

Three Luke Jedis, and they all have painted faces? ๐ I've been trying to track down one molded in flesh, with painted hair instead... That would seem to be the rarer variant.

@Chas @nightmareB4macross Impressive engineering, guys! I'm calling Dresden's Blue Beetle done. Here are a few finished pics. Thanks for the support, gentlemen. ๐ฅฐ

Adding convincing dents to the diecast Beetle frame turned out to be impossible, so I compensated by denting the hell out of the bumpers. ๐ Two bullet holes were added at the client's request... ...as was the "spray-painted" graffiti on the hood. I'm sure you'll get the reference... but who among you recognizes the licence plate number? ๐ Dude, that detail is INSANE. ๐คฏ

Really clean, but still much too stumpty... Ocular Max remains definitive for me.- 17896 replies

Even you have to admit that scale is whack. ๐ -

That model was a sloppy, low-rez amateur job painted very poorly. I wouldn't give it a second thought. More importantly, what's with all the Valkyries with turquoise canopies? ๐คจ Nah, you're thinking of Gundam. Macross is much more niche, virtually unknown outside the otaku community. -
Great! We can finally get some solid info, like measurements and MSRP. At a height of 16cm, that would make Ride Armor slightly smaller than the Sentinel figures... about equal to the old 1:12 Aoshima kits. ยฅ8000 per kit seems a little steep, but not unreasonable.

Just about done trashing the bug. I was afraid I might've gone too far... ...but the client is apparently pleased. ๐ Fabulous panel lining! ๐ Never seen those flame effects on the legs before. Cool decals.

Yeah, I much prefer the sculpt on Cadet Ezra: My favorite of the Rebels figures are this two-pack, however. They're not very posable, but they totally nail the aesthetic.
