so what does Purple Yam actually taste similar to?
-
Yeah that Alto EX gear figure is actually pretty cool and I have him on display!
-
Oyster icecream! Hehe! The world sure is a crazy place! I just couldnt imagine a desert with a fishy taste! The most extreme icecream I've had is probably deep fried icecream..
-
Cheese flavored ice cream! yeah I'll pass on that.. the only cheese I like is on my pizza's! You got me curious now so I'll have to go find an Asian market!
-
ahhh yes I remember that now! A rather unfortunate incident.. As frustrated as I was getting I did my best to keep my cool and not start wrestling it or being forceful. I few deep breathes and a closer look at what I was doing started generating results! What really gave me trouble was getting the upper arm joints absolutely right so that the arms line up and properly click in on the upper fuselage. I might have a another go at those just to make the shoulder pad sections line a little better. Not holding my breathe on that one though.. At least now I know how to transform it. And I think it looks a lot better in fighter mode AND with a clean load out! I packed the super armor bits away. Being a somewhat awkward looking plane as it is it looked a little too busy with all that stuff hanging off it.

7 hours!! I don't feel so bad about how long it took me now! I got this Valk loose so I don't have the user manual to reference from which didn't help. And yes I think Bandai have learnt a great deal about tricky transformations since then! The VF-19 is a total breeze compared to this! Ahhh yes that head swivel joint had me stumped for a while there. Tricky little bastard of a thing!
-
It didn't eh.. both in SDFM and DYRL! thanks mate! same to you! haha! yep he certainly drew the short straw eh! But he is in multiple places at once as I have 3 of him and in good company too!
-
Haha! Wow that stuff is very people isn't it! What flavor is that!?
-
hehe! nahhh! he's just holding back to let the other suckers in front get blasted first!
-
that is sooo cool! Very nice work mate!
-
Your review was great! Really enjoyed reading it! In fact most all of your reviews are all fantastic! Sadly im not any good at writing reviews myself so I don't really have any constructive advise but I didn't really find anything wrong with your reviews anyways! Went back to you site this evening to watch the transformation guide on the 171 which was a huge help! Many thanks for your efforts!
-
hehe! I wonder if Bandai used the Tamiya color code symbol as inspiration when they designed the DX Valkyrie stands! well for the n.u.n.s. Valk's anyway..
-
just went through my very first attempt at transforming the 171 from battroid back to fighter.. geez what a total PITA!!! so fiddly and unnecessarily complicated! Big thanks to Jenius video on Anymoon.com which helped me out a great deal! but hey what a total head f#$% of a job to get it all done and in a presentable state! The shoulder covers still don't quite want to line up exactly flush with the upper part of the body but after wasting 2 hours of my life which I won't ever get back I am happy I the way it is now.. Getting both the upper shoulder articulation joints lined up correctly so the arms sit properly on the upper fuselage was quite tricky too! I tell ya this friggin thing nearly ended up against the wall a few times!
-
going to see this Tuesday! really looking forward to it!
-
I see Lego isn't wasting any time with the new Star Wars movie! none of which look anything towards particularly appealing.. -
Who would the natural enemies be to the Proto Devlin?
spanner replied to Zinjo's topic in Movies and TV Series
with knockers like these who wouldn't have enemies!? hehe! referring to other jealous chicks of course.. -
well.. he sorta kinda does
-
was just flicking through pics from Macross The Ride and there are a few very interesting Valk's that a potentially production worthy! If they renewed the SV-51 they could throw in the SV-52y while they were at it! Its not too dissimilar..
-
Hey thanks for that! but yeah im thinking I'll split them up.. the more I look at them the less I think they should be displayed together. I might actually switch the 171 back to fighter too. I just cant find a decent pose in battroid and it always ends up looking kinda awkward.. I still not a huge fan of the 171 and the CF is the only one I currently have but if they made anything from Macross 30 I'd probably consider it. Still on the fence about Luca's RVF-171..
-
Awesome aircraft! One of my fav of the Saab bunch too!
-
ok that's cool. I will work something out and maybe even hang it up on fishing line!
-
I think I will have to do that as I noticed the arm has dropped down a little from the original position I left it.. I have tightened up arms and shoulders with of some my other 25's so im sure it will work out ok. What is annoying me more is the loose ankles..
-
fighting crappy ankle joints on the Percival.. besides that I think these two go quite well together!
-
this is the best I could do.. its not very good but it was a balancing act between tipping over forward or backward.. I had the top cannons on a better angle but bumped them taking the photo and forgot to correct it..
-
Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
spanner replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Personally I would love to have 3 but I have other kitted up in Supers so I'll just leave at least one Ozma in Armors.. I really love the look of Ozma's 25 clean in fighter mode though! The Supers are a good thing but yeah the Armors are better! Mate these photos are fantastic as they are but im not going to talk you out of taking some freshies! Can't wait to see them! Impressive haul my friend! Good to see you reached a collection milestone! Im sure I speak for all here when I say we're looking forward to seeing photos! Very nice pics! And a fine specimen to begin your Frontier collection! Welcome aboard! mate there is nothing wrong with having huge quantities of Valkyries! its just the $$$$$ value which is the killer!
