    Why on Earth is communism and/or Chinese politics being discussed here? Not another word, not even in response to this post, or get banned.
  2. David Hingtgen
    Fixed.

    Yes, just like there's a lot of anime Magic in the -19 valkyries--and Yamato keeps getting closer and closer with them. They should try the Escaflowne again.
  4. David Hingtgen
    Because we all know how much Yamato has improved over the years. A nice new transforming Escaflowne could be the centerpiece of a collection.

    The "little giant" pilot ability is a HUGE boost for fighting mobile armors. It's not like a 10-20% bonus. It builds up the bar like 4 or 5 times faster I think.

    VF-X scheme done on the new kit---now I want Yamato to do it even more: http://mecha-guy.blogspot.com/2011/07/vf-11b-thunderbolt-macross-plus-hobby.html

    What do people do to their valks that they need any sort of "cleaner" (alcohol etc) at all? Mine never have anything more than common household dust, which is easily removed with nothing more than a small brush, or water if really needed.

    Yeah, I know GI Joe doesn't perfectly follow the real military, but the custom markings for the pilots should go on the nose, not the tail. IMHO, don't replace the tail stickers---add them to the nose. That's how it's been done since the early days. PS--the Skystriker has always had its weaponry layout wrong. Basically--put nothing where Hasbro says, and you'll be correct.

    I'll post this again, made it myself, accurate to a pixel----an F-22 and Peterbilt 379 to scale. So Starscream should be absolutely MASSIVE next to Prime in bot mode.

    Seconding Camaro5.com For the last gen, CamaroZ28.com (aka CamaroSS.com) was the place, but Camaro5 definitely eclipsed them.

    IMHO no SRT Dodge is worth it. They are a LOT more money for a BIT more speed. As opposed to base vs RT, where you get a HUGE boost in speed for the money, often for less than the price difference between RT and SRT.

    About 10 days.

    Wrong shade of yellow. I wouldn't spend a dime extra for a "Transformers edition" Camaro that's not even CLOSE to the right shade. I can understand if they don't want to EXACTLY match the color---but they don't offer anything at all right. Metallic dusky-orangey-gold pearl vs gloss bright canary yellow=not the same. Buy a base model in pure white (yes, white) then get it custom painted. You'll end up with something that looks a LOT more like the 07 movie, for less.

    I think that officially, BB's throat was injured again between 07 and ROTF. :sarcasm: What a coincidence :sarcasm: I like to think that it works a lot better plot-wise, if he just had kind of a "temporary fix" due to direct exposure to the Allspark and it was gone by the next day.
  15. David Hingtgen
    ??? It's just 1 plain shade of dull grey. F-22's are notable for their iridescent-metallic-silvery paint, and distinct two-tone pattern. It's definitely low-vis, but not F-22-esque at all.

    Leader Ironhide's out, I've seen him at TRU.
  17. David Hingtgen
    Yeah, I just started that line for "something different" and found Treize and Duo seem to be main characters in that line. Don't have Duo yet, but expect him soon. Tallgeese II is as good as was reported online. It's not the stats, it's the moves. It does better melee than anything, and the hyper (combo?) SP is better than Unicorn's against a single target. It is basically a boss-killer. I swear I one-shotted a 95% health Deathscythe with it. "Those who pass through" hasn't lead to anything really---just more Turn-A stuff mostly.

    I think Point 11 is "no more Urkel-pants".

    I believe Graham literally has 3 big ziplock bags full of shoulders. 1 of DYRL grey-white, 1 of TV pure white, and 1 of CF tan. They're just placed into envelopes and mailed.
  20. David Hingtgen
    Got Kamille/Zeta usable, but most of the Titans are still "not even on the list" for friendship level. Same for Duo/Deathscythe.

    History is within Story, in the same choice/grouping as you'll see Tutorial, Memorial, Commemorative, and other types of missions. There's a good 8 types of missions within Story. I'm guessing History opens up just by using Amuro a bit. Also, Zeta seems to be the last to appear. Emma's not even on the "friendship" list yet, and Kamille is a lvl 1. It'll be a while before you can pilot Zeta with Kamille. ZZ is much more "developed" than Z right now. (having focused on the "Doubt" and "Understand" paths of story mode) I think most of the cast of ZZ has appeared, about half the pilots/suits now selectable.
  22. David Hingtgen
    I haven't bought any licenses (they're expensive, and I like having people only pilot "their" suits) BTW, the "history" missions will get you Dozle in Big Zam. Also, Char's Gelgoog is a VERY tough opponent, by far the toughest I've fought yet. I wonder if there's a raw "number destroyed by a single suit" achievement. If there is, original Gundam is going to get it. The history missions give you 500+ for EACH mission, fairly easily. I've taken out zillions of Zakus, Goufs, and Doms now... (original Gundam is just built for crowd-control, weapons-wise)

    Reprolabel's new Trypticon set is awesome. And it actually works better if you have a sticker-less Trypticon to start with. http://reprolabels.com/Upgrades/upgradex15.php
  24. David Hingtgen
    I have now fought (and beaten) Psyco Gundam, so they definitely pop up once in a while. I was surprised Dozle Zabi was in a Gelgoog, not piloting Big Zam. ::edit:: Rank 2 really starts showing more differences between suits. While Unicorn's stats all increase fairly evenly, Epyon's melee shoots way up. Rank 2 Epyon blows away a Rank 2 Unicorn when it comes to melee power. Still, Unicorn's SP attack (and subsequent NT-D mode usage which tends to let you mostly refill the SP gauge) still probably makes it overall better. Still, while Bandai didn't give us the "slicing Barge in half" beam saber for Epyon in the MG kit, they did give it to us in the game. Most of Epyon's saber attacks are the BIG saber with serious range and power. "Melee" is actually the heat whip. Pressing the "shot" button is the saber. Gundam F91 is an awesome partner, especially for Epyon. Kinda sucks to actually pilot it though, IMHO.

    3-in-1 is pointlessly big/expensive. You rarely see Ozma with Super, and it's "uncommon" for Alto to have full armor.
