  1. All of the V2 VF-1s have that problem.
  2. Yeah, I was hoping I caught it before Gubaba saw it, but it was easy to miss (I myself had to re-read it to catch it). Good thing Gubaba only skimmed the post!
  3. Man, it's hard to spoiler tag stuff when you quote the spoilers...
  4. Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody (brand new, official, not fanwork)
  5. That reminds me---when's the "Ranka" vocaloid pack coming out? (I assume it's not out yet, as there hasn't been a flood of new Frontier vids lately)
  6. Ok, I'll try to survive the crowds on Black Friday and see what I can find. (I normally make it a point NOT to shop on Black Friday, in deference to all the people I know that work retail---I'm one less person they have to deal with, and one less car on the road)
  7. Well the thing is, I find Luminara almost everywere--and that's 2 waves newer according to Rebelscum, so I worry that everywhere has already "gone through" the Ahsoka wave and will only be restocking with newer figs.
  8. Do I *really* need to make a post about what I'd like a translation-copy of?
  9. I'd pay cash for a drawing of that. Seriously. (PM me if you're willing)
  10. I freely admit I like valks with boobs. I'd rather Yamato make a VF-11MAXL' than just about anything else. And of course, combining "Mylene" with "valks with boobs" with "M7 outfits" gets you this: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...st&p=770977
  11. Slipped off the front page, so I'm bumping it.
  12. Zartan looks good, but I still want a readily-available classic Dusty for my "desert" Joes first. Also want a Cover Girl that doesn't totally suck. There's still a lot of "missing from 25th" things I want rather than more RoC/Resolute rehashes of the same basic dozen characters.
  13. I only just now realized that I actually need the spacesuit Ahsoka fig---but I haven't found one in the 48 hours I've been looking---but I know I saw it recently enough that there SHOULD still be some out there among the many Admiral Pegwarmers. Is that Ahsoka still readily available? I don't really want to drive to the next town on Black Friday to figure hunt at various super-crowded stores for nothing. I don't want to order one and "risk random bad QC", as that fig has pretty complex paint apps on the face, and I really want a nicely-painted one.
  14. Yes, many outfits in M7 suck, especially Milia's mayoral one.
  15. Milia in a flightsuit in M7 looks better than Milia in a flightsuit in SDF:M though. (seriously, Macross should put as many chicks as possible in flightsuits--they always look good---even Sheryl did it a few times)
  16. They should have invited Grace to the pizza party. Excellent place to use her wrist-tentacle-things.
  17. I suspect the fact that everyone knew it was going to be a re-hash with recycled footage dampened the numbers a bit.
  18. That makes me ask: 1. How old are the "old farts" here? (since most of the long-term members here are all roughly the same age) 2. How old are you?
  19. While Pollyscale is my fave paint, I don't like any of their clears.
  20. It's kinda like a Deathscythe Hell Custom, but more ludicrously caped. And white.
  21. If nothing else, the Xenosaga series had some amazing boss battle themes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCTvSX4d-ck I still don't how to pronounce Metempsychosis; Ω Res Novae was at least mentioned in-game many times. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAF3k7ak55U (it doesn't get *really* cool until 2 mins in)
  22. LED backlighting seems nice, but I don't see a massive jump--it's still not implemented as well as it should be. Should basically give an LED to each pixel. THEN it'd be impressive as heck. OLED is still "5 years away"--which is what they said 5 years ago, and I think 10 years a go...
  23. What I'd really like is a brushable flat coat. Future brushes great--but I rarely have need for a gloss coat.
  24. A "knock less glossy" is a far cry from 'flat'. I could get a sort of satiny finish, but let me know if you can get a FLAT finish from Future. (I was mainly using Tamiya flat base in my experiments, as it's what's listed in Swanny's Future guide)
  25. I think the semi-gloss screens are the best compromise. Really gloss=reflections, but really flat=any light it picks up gets spread over a large area of the screen. Screen "shine" was a pretty big consideration when I picked up mine. (I don't like the glossy-black Samsung remotes either, but it's remarkably fingerprint-free---deals with them 10x better than a PS3 does) (Samsung changes their screen glossiness a lot lately--I think I got one of the last models with the "good" type of screen---even other models from that year had the newer-but-worse type)
