  1. You being the pirate.
  2. Reporting for duty. (That's a Bandai 1/72 belt with the HMR gunpod, attached with 2mm magnets)

    I want this to sell well, so we get the remaining Destroids. Everyone take 3.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    amiami is dripping them out. Available again. keep trying.
  5. Hmmm... An armored Defender?
  6. Any instructions for Mac Plus arm rifle?
  7. Hi Xigfrid. Finally got my 1/60 Isamu Bike and Sharon. Could you please pose a 1/72 Bike with the 1/60 Isamu pilot? Comparing to animation, it seems the 1/60 bike is too large for my taste. I'd like to see how it looks with a smaller bike. Thanks.
  8. You could get it here. Good price. http://www.fromjapan.co.jp/en/item/search/マクロスメカジオラマ/Al_11_Yh_YhRaAm_N_N_0A00ja00_N/lgk-link_top_search
  9. Electronics adventures continue. I melted some components today trying to connect a li/poly backpack , so I thought I would share. Note how the red wire is on the left of the JST cable in the Adafruit image, but it is on the right in the Ebay image. You cant just flip it because the JST has a track. So, not thinking it could possible be reversed, I plugged it in along the track, and my poor little backpack started to smoke and melt. Fortunately, it didnt hurt the Trinket.

    I'll take an HMR blue Spartan, but ONLY if it has tampo of the anime girl on the chest.
  11. Take two: No pain, no gain. I should have thought it through more. This time around, I laid some clear resin to create a window at the edge of the wing. I think this would work well for non-transparent wings as well. I am planning to mask the warning lights with a millimeter of tape before priming, so the light can get out. Something to think about: Do I leave the warning lights completely unpainted with a gloss, clear paint them blue and white, or give a single light layer of paint without primer, which should still allow most of the light out.
  12. 20% off at Shapeways. Took advantage to finally order Mac Plus items.
  13. Bodozul (???) and Meltandi re-issues up for pre-order from Arcadia web shop. You will need a proxy service to order. http://arcadia.ac/
  14. Do we have a thread with all Macross related items on Shapeways? I've found a few by luck. Might be useful. A lot of the items are unsearchable.
  15. I am super glad you got one. Cant wait to see it with the Workroid.
  16. I need some advice. On my breadboard for the Yamato, I have around 20 Ground wires and 10 power wires that need to be combined to one pin each on the Trinket. Whats the best approach? All I can think of is twisting and soldering. Is there a better way to connect them?
  17. I'm no expert, but it does look more duck billed than the line art.
  18. Thanks. That's the tutorial I need.
  19. The Holy Counter This cockpit has received: 1x Holy!!! 1x Holy Cow 1x Holy Smokes and 1x Holy Grail, but that doesn't count.
  20. Holy smokes!!!!
  21. Unless you can expertly paint them, like some of these guys, leave them alone. It would be a sad shame to destroy a Takatoku. And the packaging is classic. You have a mint box there. I don't know if its Takani art, but its nice.
  22. My final piece arrived for the Yamato for leading the Trinket out of the body. So what do I do? Cut it into pieces of course. Because sometimes a micro-usb is not micro enough.
  23. Awesome! Just a simple build. Nothing special. But wait... I can add signal lights. And a motor for the propeller. And photo-etched parts. And... I am so psyched! My dad introduced me to my first models as a young teen in the 80's with the balsa wood Fokker aircraft. I built dozens of them. They are the type with ribs and you spread the thin paper, then wet it so it stretches across the frame. They look great. I was already a Macross addict, but didn't know the connection. I have half a mind to build a balsa model instead.
