  1. And due to the size difference, a lot of 1/72 F-14 stuff fits a 1/60 VF-1 well. (and half the master file etc schemes are modified F-14 schemes anyways)
  2. I had figured about a 50% chance it'd be you to bring up that point. (the other 50% would be jenius)
  3. Re: the car apartment. If you could actually drive into your living room---that'd be cool. But a 5-10 minute sequence to have it delivered near your living room behind glass? Seems a massive time-waste. Just think about bringing in groceries or luggage or something. (of course, if you're that rich, you don't need to haul your own groceries or luggage)
  4. Yeah, like the Fokker-style YF-29 which was so easy to get.
  5. I noticed it in the first second of the film, it was glaringly obvious to me, and distracting.
  6. Stupid question from not watching the whole video-----is the entire game that dark? I mean, yeah, I get the whole stealth-ninja aspect, but all I saw was pretty much some icons over a black screen.
  7. Also the presence or lack of a fin/boom between the booster nozzles, and the number of micro-missile ports on top of the booster.
  8. And it's got a lot more animation/screen time than the VF-4, for sure.
  9. Has he been practicing stake-impaling and axe-throwing too?
  10. I think the arm-attachment part was inspired by how it was done with Bruticus in the FoC trailer------which is a good thing, because it was awesome.
  11. It's an inherent issue with the mold, that seems to have been fixed for the US release.
  12. Meh, Grace/Mylene would be so much better...
  13. You mean besides the new movie currently filming?
  14. Has anyone mentioned that the little red hinge in the chest armor is painted, and not molded that color? You could probably just plunk it in some rubbing alcohol and the paint'd peel off, if you want it grey. (for screen accuracy, it should really be mostly grey with "fold quartz magenta" in the middle)
  15. Yup, those are definitely Sidewinder-X's.
  16. I think most every model-builder with any sci-fi interest has done a "fiber-optic starship" or two. PG Unicorn would have to be easier than that.
  17. No they don't. They have one or two LED's in the head and maybe chest. Gundams have had that for years. And that's not what I (or most others I suspect) expect from a PG Unicorn. Those are light-up heads, not light-up armor. I pretty much want every single red bit to glow. Might need massive amounts of lightpiping and fiberoptics, or nano-SMD LEDs all throughout to make it happen. Not just the torso, but the arms and legs, right to the tips. Anything less isn't worth it---otherwise you could just throw a big LED in the middle of the HG kit (like many have).
  18. That's what I read. But still---I want it! Clear parts don't do it, I want an internally-illuminated mode Unicorn. (preferably transformable, but I fear transforming and internal wiring/lighting just don't go together)
  19. Kadena F-15's in HD. If you want to see what a real fight would be like (vs Hollywood/Ace Combat spitting-range) watch this. (and in full-screen)
  20. Grimlock is a voyager. Only FoC voyager so far, AFAIK.
  21. Since Shadow Broker is the greatest DLC ever, and better than many "regular" storylines in ME, it can't possibly compare. I too am curious. I don't expect mind-blowing awesomeness like LotSB, but if it's "good" I'm interested. Anything in it for EDI? I'd love more EDI. (and on that note---how come no play arts Liara or EDI?)
  22. A little bit of everything, nice mix. Action bases, Medicom Asuka, Bandai valk kits...

    DX VF-25G

    And people mocked me for complaining about Ozma being painted with not-matching shades of grey instead of being molded in color like the first one...
  24. Or maybe "very very pale" grey. (that'd be a bit more realistic, though I'll admit it probably wouldn't look as good). (a lot of "white" missiles nowadays are actually very light grey---but back in the 70's/80's most were a pure white) Hey---they could just use "DYRL VF-1" plastic for the missiles---that'd be about right. And we know Yamato knows how to make that color.
