didnt I say 1/48?....ehem-2...
as for the alpha...well, the toy is great, but the materials they use are crappy to the point that countless QC issues had been found even in a single toy forum (macrossworld). If they can switch from using crappy plastic to ABS plastic, and make the toy a little bit bigger, say, at 1/48, I believe thay'd stand still in the toy market (plus with their license on mospeada etc.-2).
however, at the moment, they still sucks
