  1. don't go there... they're pretty much done for.
  2. Finally got around to reading this... Awesome post! Thanks!
  3. The thumb is different because it's a ball and socket joint. The other fingers are hinge joints. The reason it's high up on the hand is because it needs to swing open so I need some room at the bottom to hold it in place. It's strategically on that spot to get the best range of motion and the thumb itself will have a natural look when positioned in different ways. If you look at the pictures carefully you can really just see it in one pic. Otherwise most of the time youre gonna look at the back of the hand or the stem will blend in with the rest of the palm. The stem is sturdy, the strength of the joint depends on the tolerance of the ball to the socket. I didn't articulate the middle joint because it doesn't lend anything to poses and storing. The middle joint on the other four fingers are necessary so it can fold up into the arm and adds to dynamic posing. It doesn't help with gripping though... the joints are weak there, my main concern there is trying to make sure it doesn't fall out and disappear. Thanks for pointing that out, that was a really good question.
  4. The interesting thing about this is that Apple has enough money to pursue the lawsuit... if they win and it sets precedence for likenesses, that could mean something for the third party head sculpts based on the other unauthorized "celebrities".
  5. Yeah that ED-209 was HT. It was $150 when it came out.... ugh! Apple Threatens Legal Action Over Upcoming Steve Jobs Figurine Apple Threatens Legal Action Over Upcoming Steve Jobs Figurine http://www.macrumors...-jobs-figurine/

    If you guys want this deleted, I'll delete it. But I feel like it's something that's gonna keep popping up. Unless we can find a way to stop them then anyone that can type Macross on eBay will be able to find this. Maybe we should stop providing links or something.

    I wonder how big it is next to a 1/60 Yamato... I think the Yamato is about 19 inches... their "off scale" 1/60 pod.
  9. Shortly hopefuly... it's the ball joint tolerance I need to perfect then it'll be all ready. Sorry holidays got in the way. And these things arent cheap to protoype... they wont be expensive though, hopefully, that's the goal.
  10. Holy Cow! I mean holy cow! 227! That Rose... she cracks me up.
  11. I never like the design on that robot... it's kinda the same way I felt about the bots in that rockem sockem movie... generic looks.

    It reminds me of one thing a wise man once said.... SPLOOOOGE!
  13. I posted it because they're planning on making a 1/6th Cain. The Figma version is not bad though.
  14. you might have it minimized, go to the right side of the blue bar and you can toggle that section open.
  15. Nice. Hurry up! We need something for the main page!
  16. That's the name of the anime I just rented. Flash crapper corrector Yui. I can't get the theme song out of my head.
  17. If it gets made, who's gonna want a kit with an extra head of Shinobu? You still have to get another bike and a whole other kit to get it made. lol.
  18. When I got word that they got the kit out of Beagle it was said that the Shinobi gear was probably left behind. But then I got word that it was safe. Lo and behold if you look carefully there's the camera right there in one of the pictures. So that's 2 kits we are looking at. 2 expensive kits because that female figure has to be made for the conversion kits.

    Superb as always... love the detail.
  20. Yup... you're talents were way to good for their manufacturing practices... good luck. I hope you can find a place where they appreciate your talent... see you around!
  21. Yeah I'm confused... the section is still there and it was never specifically toys.
  22. "May I borrow your bike? I really got to go!"
  23. I guess you can say that they 'missed it by that much!'
  24. Robotech: You cannot advance!
