Dullcoat... that's probably it...

Looks better in those pics... the towel pics were kinda ghetto... Windcharger at least they didn't call him glassbottom...

that's real??? it 's weird that they would release photos like that and have it painted already...

The paper I used is ultra thin polyvinyl film (PVF). Adheres to surfaces like a mofo, especially after exposure to heat. Don't push it, though. The topcoat and inks I use aren't indestructible.... Yeah, I was talking about the chest stripes, more or less. Colored vinyl can take the stress that ink can't. The chestplate on the recasts are really bendable.

Car decals are not heat activated. They jsut peel and stick. Also they are really really thick compared to the size and scale of the JM. there's different thicknesses to vinyl. And they stick more more after they've been left in the sun or if heat is applied. I should know I worked in a graphic workshop for years. They made car decals and those sign banners that you see everywhere. The heat also causes the bubbles to seep thru after a while.

are you aware that Yamato is working on a 1/60 monster? Also, I think you're talking about Hikaru's fanracer. Tanmen made on at 1/72 and I don't know if it'll be that much bigger in 1/60... how about a 1/48?

it's like his superpower... All I have is stupid ability to turn back time for 60 seconds, and it takes me 2 minutes to do it... so really I'm just losing one minute of my life.

is that before or after she/he start looking like a chick?

I think we have a couple of these coming into the comic book store. Dunno how much though. PM me if you want me to check it out.

I guess I'm glad I started helping out my friend at the comic book store... MWUAHAHAHA!

http://exodigital.com/lyrics.pdf I've been collecting this from the web for a while now... I wish I woulda saw this thread sooner....

what about vinyl, nick? like the car window ones... those are heat activated, just like resin. Once it's on it's stuck like paint, just make sure the surface is clean.

LOL...don't thank us buddy...really...you see we are all very sick...the fact we can all rationalize $100 or more for a small plastic model is reasonable is a sign of how sick we are! Ahh well...Im just a big kid at heart. "Fish are friends, not food...." Hehe... Macross collectors are the kings of justification. You make a really nice detailed kit or toy, give us the price... and we'll make up the need for it. Just make sure you can make us think it's worth it.

Five star stories, hella expensive...

I'm seeing "doll"...

It's not really fair to compare the cost of a product with a higher run with a chance of being reissued to a kit that has a small run, created by people you somewhat have a direct communication with, so you can almost say you know them. If anything the heart that these people put into the booster and any upcoming product is shortchanged. I'm not saying that there's no love given to the creation of the Hasegawas, but it's love that is backed by a much higher profit margin.

That's a whole different cup of tea... Most of the crap RT takes from MW is because it's posted in the wrong place or people troll for some kind of justification even though they know the majority of the people here hate Robotech. It even says not to defend RT or recieve heat in the guides and rules. Skullone took that rule to the heart and that's why he's gone, but what little heat people get now is well deserved. If we were nice to noobies about that mistake they're sure took take advantage. Try not to simplify it with your little quip about paint smears. I get as pissed at crappy Yamato paint as I do with Toynami's.

No... that's payback is a dish best served cold, not a cold plate. Actually... it's suppose to be revenge... I'll make like a tree and get out of here....

but they'll take your money all the same...

Could it be that you're just waiting for that open ended question to arise though, even at it's slightest hint? Even though the original poster didn't ask for personal opinions on M7... Heck, the last thread wasn't even about M7.

Dude, if anything, this is a message to get it right... Remember where Bush was during 911?

And with that... I shall pass on this movie!!!

THIS THREAD SUCKS! CLOSE IT!!! Just kidding Wabbit... I agree with what you're saying... if there's a current thread open that deals with similar subjects then I can understand not having another open. If something is already covered in the FAQs. Or if another thread can be pointed that completely answers the question. But the whole M7 thing is ridiculous. Like it or not it's part of Macross and Macross 7 fans should be allowed to speak their mind freely, but around here it gets treated like Robotech, which clearly is not allowed unless it's in the Other Anime Section. There are certain aspects of M7 I happen to like, some I hate. I hate Shin from Maross 0 as much as I hate Basara, but I don't go in and destroy every Macross 0 thread there is. I just avoid the TV/ Movie section altogether now.

What's the point of giving Mr. Fantastic grey hair if they're going with the younger version??? Is it Traumatic grey a la Rouge? ooops fanboy rave.... The director's previous movie was Barbershop, they should do a crossover and call it Mr. Fantasic Cuts. booooo! hisssss!

Seems pretty obvious. The question is "is BumbleBee going to be a VW bug?" And will they go with the size changing robots like Megatron and Soundwave?
