  1. Above all else, I'd suggest a GREY lining pen/marker. Pure black is too dark/stark for a white or light grey mecha. Especially if you're a beginner and won't be able to control how it goes on very much.
  2. Had it in my cart, but was gone with about 2 clicks remaining to finish the order.
  3. I'd buy it if this time it has the rich golden-yellow stripes, and green clear parts. (and maybe print the SMS markings in something other than white-on-white)
  4. Always reminds me of how the British say "petrol"---well, that's not nearly specific enough! Gas at least is short for gasoline, a very specific form of distilled petrol. Anyways----just pre-emptively changed my car's battery. It's over 6 years old, and that's old enough to worry even when it's performing flawlessly. (ever car I've ever had die, the battery was PERFECT that morning---start right up the first try in a split-second on a cold day after being shut-down overnight---but 8 hours later, battery so dead it won't even crank---in my world, batteries die totally and instantly) (I've never had a battery last this long, and I feel bad replacing it as it's a known "good one" but I just can't risk another winter I think) PS---you can always keep jet fuel in your kerosene can.
  5. Seriously, THIS gets reissued, and NOT ALTO'S VF-25?!?!? (or Ozma's)
  6. As always, I plan to skip any episode that is centered around droids, gungans, senators, etc. So, which ones DO I need to watch? It'll save me a good amount of time/effort if you could list what's "essential". I pretty much just want clones and jedi. (and Maul, of course)
  7. That...could be awesome, if she cosplays or something.
  8. Rubbing alcohol can remove most tampo prints from most plastics safely. Just use a Q-tip and rub for a while.
  9. Max and Milia colors are always an option. (actually, on this plane, I think Moaramia's would rock)
  10. Gah, can't believe I forgot that. I'd take that over any other valk, even a new YF-19. Oh, and M&M v2 reissues too, please.
  11. My PS2 thumbsticks have that issue too---it makes the knobs collect insane amounts of dust, since they're just "ever so slighty moist/sticky". I don't think using them makes a difference---I once went a year without using the controller, and it made no difference---still got sticky and collected dust due to "ooze".
  12. I've gotta get caught up. I think I saw like the first ep of the season, and have a massive backlog after that.
  13. Here's what was on the now missing page: He posted a screen cap of a message from Amazon--they credited £50 to his account for informing them and being an "upstanding customer". He claimed it was karma and was for the good of everyone to prevent higher prices in the future. He created a new thread for that, not merely a new post.
  14. IIRC, quite a few Robotech fans took delight in alerting HG to the few places selling Toycom valkyries in the US... ::edit:: Wait, there's more! Stealth gloating? http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/751190-why-you-should-decent-human-being.html
  15. Well, since the reissue of ROTF Bruticus was 135, I doubt a leader class fig will be less.
  16. Oooooh, things just heated up at TFW. Nothing like revealing to an angry fandom that you called Hasbro corporate to let them know they were undercharging.... http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/746563-mp-10-amazon-exclusive-uk-38.html#post8778934
  17. Seconded---I like Wing Gundams to be "clean". They are not military suits to be worked on by conscripts etc with a bunch of warning stencils---they're maintained by the pilots and a few other specialists.
  18. I swear Takara watches second-hand prices nowadays, and re-issues anything "notable" at a much higher price than it originally was to "get in on it". First Energon/ROTF Bruticus, and now Leader Brawl is coming back: Probably cost like 200 bucks though... (but if it actually looks like that, it may be worth it)
  19. VF-25F re-release. Seriously, I expected it in 2012. (and I know many here want a VF-25S, too) As for NEW stuff: VF-11B M3 Milia or VFX-2 Ravens (M7 Milia would be ok, but the M3 scheme is so much better) There's quite a few others I'd like or even buy, but the above are the only ones I really WANT.
