The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread
David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
MP Seekers will all stand a lot better/easier if the tailhook fairing was removed, like on the real thing. It's sad at the number of ways I've seen them try to get around it, ignoring what the real thing did, which is the easiest option of "snipping off the part causing a problem".- 9146 replies

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread
David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I'm not seeing many new seeker molds. A whole lot of KO's of the MP molds, both tweaked and 100% copies, but almost no "new from scratch F-15 molds". Just "Howling Meteor" and that's only a silhouette, and based on the shilhouette I have my doubts as to it being an actual F-15.- 9146 replies

I see Tallgeese as more like this:

That too----I still can't quite figure out what the proportion issue IS, but it does look wrong to me. Simply literally not tall enough?

On that note, I'm thinking about picking up the MG Tallgeese. But I'd have to paint the entire thing, which to me kinda negates half the point/fun of a Gundam kit. (because I demand TV colors---Tallgeese didn't have white boosters and yellow accents all over, nor was there any navy). The many TV-colors repaints look awesome, but makes for much more work. Tallgeese, vs Tallgoose: I'm kinda deciding between MG Tallgeese, Wing Zero Proto, and Epyon. Leaning towards Epyon.

I'm amazed/impressed they got anything even at all resembling the FOC Nemesis design out of the WFC dino mode. Would prefer a much more city-ish/G1-ish "fortress" mode though. Not sure about the 3rd "different jet" mode. Would rather effort/parts have gone into better city mode.- 9146 replies

I see it as good news, as more money into the franchise means more money for valk CGI... -
Is Wing Gundam like the smallest MG, of any "normal" suit? (not like a Ball or anything). I think I've built 1/144's that were bigger:

Started working? They're nearly done: https://www.flickr.com/photos/95812560@N03/28312358206/sizes/l That's way beyond sample/prototype. That's molded in color. (markings appear to be decals though, so it still has a bit to do)- 9146 replies

David Hingtgen replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
So did the black series Revan come out or just no news lately? Googling just brings up stuff from a while ago. Also----any chance of actually getting it? I never ever saw the first Revan (nor Bastila). -

White flaps, but not rudders/spoilers. Hmmmm. -

Why is everyone missing the "cooling unit failure" line? It was like "1-3, and 8-10". I think one area had a heating failure, but another had a cooling failure. Mirage and Hayate seemed to be in an energy-intensive area, so it may be one of the naturally hotter parts of the ship. -

::ok, I'm just going to give up trying to post now. Something's changed, and normal spoiler tags aren't working right for some reason. -
Hase decals are much better than they were years ago, but even back then, Hase decals never had the "screen door/dots" effect that Bandai ones have.

FT's Blitzwing has an inferior jet mode to Gewalt, but Gewalt's tank mode is SO bad, that despite being a jet fan first and fore-most, I'll have to wait and see how FT's turns out due to the million times better tank. (really, Gewalt pretty much is a MiG-25, though of course there's some issues--mainly the back half of it---but FT's jet isn't really ANYTHING. It's MiG-25-ish, but it's almost just as F-15-ish, especially the nose/canopy area) I do like Gewalt's robot mode though, to me it's the best Blitzwing by far in that mode. (yes, the shoulders are weird, but everything else is quite nice---and "animation-accuracy be damned" the half-nozzle feet on the other 2 bots look awful and are also nothing like either the toy's or real MiG-25 nozzles)- 9146 replies

They put the hinges on the wings on the front/visible side. That alone is an "obvious error" IMHO, for a high-end chogokin. (Though considering the transformation, it may be possible to flip them around)

What was the typical turnaround for Frontier? A bit under a week? One-two days, sometimes same-day, is "miraculous" to me. And waited a whole lot longer than that for Zero! -
And at a surprisingly large number of them. I figured like "15 biggest cities only" or something. I'll buy my ticket soon.

The navy is a really nice touch. Adds just enough color to make it "not super-drab" grey EVERYWHERE, but still keeps it quite low-vis overall.

Considering the number of people waiting for subs, people often self-spoiler-tag until subs are out. I personally appreciate it, so I can see the "subs are out!" post without having the whole ep spoiled. -
Found my parts! They were on the workbench/table. Already checked there two or three times over the last 48 hours, but they somehow avoided detection every time. Yeesh, I spent a decent chunk of the the past two days checking every nook and cranny and box I could think of...
