    DX VF-25G

    David Hingtgen replied to zulu's topic in Toys

    They painted that section on Ozma's instead of molding it in the appropriate shade of grey IIRC, so I don't think the mold's set up the way it needs to be to allow for the glove being a different color for the wing. It really seems like the mold is designed for Alto's scheme. Everything else uses LOTS of paint. Whereas the 1/72 kit is split up so you can get like 80-90% color accuracy with no paint.

    Ordered the ASUS N56U, Newegg had a 20 buck off coupon for it today, so that made it *much* cheaper than the 66.

    Up again, just got mine. Go now! http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=15546036&sku=13931381

    Ignoring price, is there any reason to buy the N56U over the N66U?

    Well, when all you have are 500 BB's, and everyone in town already has one, sales go down...

    At this point, I'm just waiting for the -19F to go on sale... (I currently own no -19's of any kind despite it being my fave valk, and it may be a long time before a v3 YF-19 comes out)

    Useful shot for size comparison:

    Am I nuts, or do Russians apparently not attempt to brake when there's an impending collision?

    That's the J-21, their F-22 rip-off. Previously seen was the much-cooler and bigger J-20.

    OK, router time. Mainly interested in compatability/reliability over raw speed/range. That said, this is everything that may be hooked up to it in the foreseeable future: ipad iphone X360 PS3 Any suggestions? I have seen a few reports than Netgear's uber-popular N900 routers don't like iphones. I am strongly considering true dual-band due to the latest iphones being 5ghz capable. Also--do external antennas matter? Some routers don't seem to have them, but if they make even a 5% difference, I'm all for having them.

    Best VF-11B scheme out there is the Ravens: http://www.macross2.net/m3/macrossga/variant-vf-11b-vfx2-yellow.htm I keep wishing Yamato would make it.

    In case anyone else is seeing red X's:

    J-21: The J-20 looks cooler, and at least isn't a 100% pure copy of something else. It's so close, I wonder if it has problems with the pilot's oxygen system...
  15. David Hingtgen
    Didn't that appear in Robocop 2, and not the original?
  16. David Hingtgen
    Nah, you'll get more hilarious droids™ in Clone Wars and like it.
  17. David Hingtgen
    Hmmn. Wouldn't work QUITE as well on a VF-1 I think, having no tailplanes.
  18. David Hingtgen
    I clicked just so I could see a limited-release valk that actually had "add to cart" there.
  19. David Hingtgen
    No, it just seems that for once a show-character got their toy ahead of their debut. I hear he's a pirate, or something like that.

    Really, shouldn't Grace be Akiko?
  21. David Hingtgen
    That was always my issue with it----which also leads to the "half-raised/pivoted" chest section to lift the arms up over the wings. It just never looked that good even when Kawamori drew it, and it works even less well in an actual figure.
  22. David Hingtgen
    I want to say that'd make a very cool Transformer.
  23. David Hingtgen
    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)
  24. David Hingtgen
    I had figured about a 50% chance it'd be you to bring up that point. (the other 50% would be jenius)

    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)
