    Guppy love.

    He was on-screen for as long as many bar patrons of Mos Eisley who have multiple action figures and incredibly long Wookiepedia entries...

    Kup is one of those "none of the 3P are wowing me, I'll probably just snag Hasbro's" figures. (partly because I'm not a huge Kup fan--owned the original, but not a single one since)

    Gotta have several dozen 4096x4096 textures for each type of ammo, so that individual rounds in a clip are all unique...

    Yeah, this Sunstreaker looks to be the all-time worst "paint vs plastic" color-matching. It's ridiculous.

    AFAIK, the F-35 uses lots and lots of tape, for sealing panels. Not sure about the -22, I think it uses more putty/effort, and tried to "just do EVERYTHING through the weapons and landing gear bay doors".

    Nah, this is Bandai. They've been averse to selling enough valks to meet demand since they started.

    I checked my warehouse at HLJ when they made that announcement---still $80 to ship a Zoid and a few small things. Will keep waiting. Might just bite the bullet if there's nothing by Jan/Feb. I don't expect to get like $25 shipping, but $80 is ridiculous for a $60 kit. It's kinda big, but not THAT big.

    Anyone want an assembled HiRM Wing Zero? Just finished it, straight build with a tiny bit of inking, and re-painted the chest-sensor. Think I'll sell it to buy the new MG.

    Anyone want Earthwise Bluestreak? If the car mode pegged together well it'd be awesome. But it doesn't, and it disappoints the heck out of me. Transformed twice, now back in the box. Found it at Walgreens this weekend.

    Are they doing matching pilot figs, for all the cockpit-only ones? A VF-25 would allow for many characters. (and if they do a VF-27, we could get Grace....)

    Well, on the Harrier and F-35, it's just "hot jet compressor air" ducted to the tips. No chemicals etc, just "air". But on a shuttle etc, it's just a very tiny rocket motor firing. A valkyrie is kinda both a jet plane and a spacecraft, so.....?

    Tekering---will you be doing the "Red Jammer" scheme on your Y-wing? (if it's based on the studio kit I'm thinking of, I believe that's the original source---every Y-Wing's unique, as I'm sure you know)
  14. David Hingtgen
    MiG-29's and Su-25's with full light strips? Yup. North Korea gonna North Korea.

    Just gonna put up a screen cap for the "shield" and "white spot" thing. Just updated my iphone to ios14, no change. ::edit:: And now there's a shield over the "e" in "change"

    I don't normally even bother painting MG pilots because they're ridiculously small, but I gave Zechs(Milliardo?) a shot:

    The site is absolutely unusable on IE now. Worked fine before. (had to switch to my phone to say so!) On safari, "alignment of elements" seems off. Like there's a big white dot to the right of everyone's avatar that covers some words. And whatever the "white shield on a small blue dot" icon is, seems to randomly appear in the background of posts. ::edit:: Right now, it appears right above the word "safari" in my post. At least, when viewing site on phone in Safari.

    It's Joons valks all over again... (but with higher quality)
  19. David Hingtgen
    There's black J-20's: #2001 and 2002 are black I think, maybe others? Though 2001 is a prototype (un-clipped fins and canards). Not sure if any production-standard ones are black.
  20. David Hingtgen
    They just used pics of the original toys. Actual releases aren't half that nice/detailed.
  21. David Hingtgen
    2. Few people do. (though to someone like me, it's easy when they use bits from real planes---they stick out like a sore thumb to someone who intimately knows the planes referenced----"totally fake" would actually look more cohesive/realistic IMHO, vs Frankensteining various bits)
  22. David Hingtgen
    I figure he's referring to the newer(better!) Dredd movie, non-Stallone, Karl-Urban-starring one, where they stated true to character, and you NEVER saw him unhelmeted. However, Dredd-style "mouth-only" still gives a much greater level of emoting etc, than TOTAL concealment like a Mando helmet.
  23. David Hingtgen
    How does that even break like that, in the tray? I want to guess cracked at the factory, before or during putting it in its tray.
  24. David Hingtgen
    So, poor vs terrible?

    Re-install-----immediately got exact same issue. Maybe a future update will fix the issue (unlikely) but for now, re-assigning all my context commands etc to the substitute... (My god does Windows try to instantly add a zillion thing "edit with Paint, edit with Photos, print, set as desktop, set as background, upload to Cloud" right-click options...) So hard to just have the two things I want up top of the list. (I use like, 3 different context-menu-editing programs just to get things set how I want---which is even more work than it took to get Win7 how I wanted)
