    BB was ANNOUNCED at the same time as Wheeljack, but I don't think it was ever intended to release at the same time. Anyways---new pic time!

    More money for 3....er, THIRD PARTY figures.

    Assuming the scan isn't perfect, here's just a slight lighting tweak I did to try to bring out some of the details, without altering the true colors:

    From the album: Reference

    Ozma's -29 *is* dark. It is not the same color as his -25. Anways---still would prefer one of the alternate game colors on the *-30* mold, but this gives me hope that Bandai plans to do as many 30th Ann. game colors as they can.
  6. David Hingtgen
    I hated the dark tint----this may sound ironic, but it made it look like a toy. Real things (cars, planes) have more subtle tints. This is much better.

    Pretty much what Mike said. Multiple names for the same thing, but using just one name kinda implies you're omitting/forgetting the others. Thus, an acronym was sorely needed. And "HGUC" is much worse, as is "CUHG".

    Most real planes are like that too, for single vs two-seat configuration. F-15, F-16, F-18... The F-5 is the first one that comes to mind where the 2-seater is actually longer. A-7 too.

    Yup, POM is inherently "waxy" and/or "slippery" to the touch. ABS is "most toys, LEGOs, etc".

    What is there to make of? It's a placeholder pic of the last movie's mold, stating "the JP release will have better paint". You can copy-paste that for TF5 and TF6 too, and it'll be correct...

    It's a rather official abbr. now, especially with events like CP3P. I mean, people use OP and UM all the time. "3P MP UM" is a lot quicker than "unofficial masterpiece-style Ultra Magnus" yet is universally understood among the fandom.
  12. David Hingtgen
    Well, the 0D does already have a CF repaint option. So that's 2 schemes right there. And maybe they could include Wolfpack markings like they did with the -0A.
  13. David Hingtgen
    Yeah, but those parts match perfectly in the not-quite-white DYRL valks. I would bet it's either: A. Factory/Arcadia didn't notice that they were using old stocks of pure-white hinges that didn't quite match. B. They intentionally used leftover pure white hinges to save money, figuring people wouldn't notice a slight color change. (oh, how they don't know Macross toy fans...)

    More money for 3P!

    Just got FP's Protector from a member over at TFW. It just cements the fact that FP has the best color-matching and paint-apps. The red is a *perfect* match to Classics Rodimus. (I didn't buy Maniaking, so decided to get something else)

    I love the Sv-51, like the VF-0D a lot. Don't care at all about the 0A/S. Didn't really like the show much either! (really, ALL the good scenes had Roy in them, but there just way too many long boring Royless scenes) I think I rank M7 above M0.
  17. David Hingtgen
    The latest version of the forum software doesn't seem to like IE very much. Any chance that's your browser?

    Ok, I'll clarify: I like her voice, as in how it sounds. I cannot really judge her skill or range on a technical level at all. But I know I just plain like the sound. Similarly, there are artists that are techically among the best there are, with incredible range and skill---that I just plain despise how their voice sounds.
  19. David Hingtgen
    I'd take a MAXL over a 0D.
  20. David Hingtgen
    Hope they get the colors right----I see a lot of "way too blue" VF-0D's. (like the little M.Fighters one on Mr K's table) The VF-0D is greyish-blue, not "BLUE!!!". It's not Max's -1J.

    I haven't followed this thread too closely (as I already have and am happy with my V2.0 Roy) but was wondering: Is the visor on this one a lighter green? The first v2 Roys have a very dark visor, that pretty much looks black a lot of the time. (and IIRC, opening up an early v2 type-S head is difficult to do without gouging/damage, thus why few people have ever been able to alter the visor color)

    One of the biggest issues is raw time/distance. Say there was a ginormous highly-advanced city-planet, and aliens were living there 500 years ago. But it's 1000 light-years away. It'll be another 500 years before any telescope, even one with near-infinite resolution, could get any light to see it. Someone could have built the Death Star last week, but you still have to wait many years for the light to travel here to Earth. And if you wanted to see something literally billions of light-years away----then you've got several billion years to wait. (or conversely, you could look at it now, and see how it was billions of years ago---but there's unlikely to be any sort of advanced life from back then)

    I really, really like her voice. personally. Certainly above Minmei/Ranka/Sheryl..... (we all know Sharon's the best---because she's got several!)
  24. David Hingtgen
    I'm a HUGE Trypticon fan, but the G1 Dino look is kinda silly. The WFC version is just plain badass. I don't know many Trypticon fans who don't like the "re-imagined" version. (He's also actually intelligent in WFC, not a moron like in G1) I don't like many of the WFC designs, but their Trypticon is the best-ever version of him.
  25. David Hingtgen
    Yes, but his FOC alt-mode is The Nemesis. And can always do a G1-esque city-mode instead.
