Your communication is very clear, but you're responding to the wrong post. π My response to @Big s was intended to illustrate that Hikaru's Armored Valkyrie is shown holding a gunpod... in every single shot, actually. π

If you want a vintage "Starfighter" model by Christmas, eBay might be your only recourse... If, however, you want an accurate Thunder fighter that's larger, more detailed, and easier to assemble and paint, there are superior 3D-printed versions that would probably cost you less (especially if you had a fellow forum member print it for you). π

Actually, it got overlooked on the original 3D model. The full-body version had it: However, it wasn't included on the headless version. π Strange, that. π€¨ Actually, that makes a lot of sense. βΊοΈ

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread
tekering replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I've been disgustingly jealous of these stunningly-accurate Combaticons, but the wonky colors on "Space Shuttle" are a deplorable misstep. How did they get everything else so right, only to stumble at the finish line...? π- 9532 replies

I suppose you're right... ...which begs the question, "How would such a fake listing benefit the third-party seller on Amazon Marketplace?" π€

Promising start, @Papa Rat. Totally. Those Meltrandi cosplayers look very suss. π€¨

I've had the male MUTO on pre-order for over a year: Apparently, it's expected to ship within the next month.

Nacelle should've blurred a lot harder. "KIrk as Romulan" is still clearly readable. π

Poor Ask Aak. A distinguished Gran senator gets mistaken for an underworld criminal, even though they look nothing alike... Another victim of the systemic racism of the Empire. π

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.- 18245 replies

Three Luke Jedis, and they all have painted faces? π 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. π₯°

Adding convincing dents to the diecast Beetle frame turned out to be impossible, so I compensated by denting the hell out of the bumpers. π 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? π Dude, that detail is INSANE. π€―

The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post
tekering replied to Shawn's topic in Model kits
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? π€¨ 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. Β₯8000 per kit seems a little steep, but not unreasonable.
