I've attached the limit switches with styrene pegs. Very happy with the result. They take the hit very well. Now I need to figure out how to anchor the motor case to the hull. I hope epoxy will be strong enough to hold it.
-
Nice find. That's the larger 6 inch right? I have the same... ten fingers and ten toes, but no helmet.

My photo shoot from a few years back.

Wait, my HMRs dont look like your HMRs. Did you repaint M&M's leg armor?
-
Nice job. There have been some great Hasegawa builds recently.
-
Very elegant finish.
-
Fine work. Wow.
-
Millia's red scheme is really going to bring out the pink in the Arcadia white. This will be the pinkest valk of all.
-
Fantastic new valk. What a beauty! Since I'm not planning to transform it any time soon, I've been living vicariously through all the transformation videos. Now I really want those missile packs! Just hate to have to fork out USD 100 for them, especially since I couldn't care less for the drones... Bandai is reaming us for these bits of plastic. On the other hand, I don't see them ever being reissued.

My daughters project. She says its a boat! Future paper crafter?
-
I guess someone could put an engine in there to fly it.
-
NZEOD... no words are suitable. Anyway, this is my limit switch set up for your opinions: I'm planning to drill a screw through the moving arm which will hit the up and down limits. I will reinforce the screw with some pla plate so it doesnt bend when hitting the switches. I will also superglue and screw those switches in place. The stinking arm only actually moves about 7mm to move the wings. So the margin for error is slim. I might get lucky the first time, but just in case I have made a removable base for the switches so I can readjust if I'm off by too much.

So is the Lancer a finished toy or kit?
-
Thanks. The reason I asked is because with moving parts and hitting micro switches, I need a stronger bond than a typical model. I guess your boat needs to be water-tight and strong for the water too.
-
Mechtech, what are the different types of glues you use?
-
Well put.

This is the Neo Nautilus which appears in the last 5 episodes of the original Nadia TV... some of Gainax's best work. Yamato and Macross fans should get a kick out of it. Its a direct descendant. Electronics dont come with the kit, if that's what you mean.

Ghost in the Shell Live Action - March 31, 2017
arbit replied to Mechinyun's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Disappointed that its failing. You would need a really talented director to pull this off. I thought they knew what they were doing. Turns out that the Hollywood treatment with an Avengers level budget isnt right for this franchise. This loss will make it difficult for more anime live-action properties. -
Nice to hear your collecting tales. I gave up on ever getting a good valk in the 80's. I searched every toy store I ever entered for a good decade to no avail. Then I gave up forever in 2000 after seeing the parts-forming Yamato V1. A decade or so after that, I read that Yamato's V2 was an amazing valk and "one of the best toys ever". And here we are with a closet full.
-
Yes sir. I reference it regularly. He knows what he's doing... I don't. However, Mechtech and I came up with the solution before seeing Dorobou. Also, by using Arduino, the electronics are much easier than the home made electronic boards he uses.
-
I hope they announce if they are doing the Premium Finish or not. Hate to miss out and then find out they are not doing the Premium Finish at all.
-
Looks great Pengbuzz. Very sleek. Fianally making some progress on my Nautilus after endless studying, thinking, measuring, re-measuring, stressing, anxiety-ing, and generally procrastinating.
-
Either that or I wait for Hasegawas TV Storm Attacker to do this:
-
So there is no 1/5000 TV Storm Attacker kit?
