    Hi-Metal R

    That looks hideous.. and what the heck is Robotech anyways!? hehe!
  3. @Saburo! Those are perfect to start off the coffee table book! LOL!
  4. Hehe! looks cool! Fits well too! Flying this thing would be a kick in the pants for Hikaru compared to his VF-1 and VF-4 he flew back in the day!
  5. Lovely shot Gundam! Looks like you still need to massage those upper fuselage side covers into position a little better.. And looks like yours doesn't have badly banana'd head lasers either! Im really liking those effects bits! I would love to setup mine in exactly the same way as in that photo! Trouble is trying to find all the parts. Someone did post the Big Bad Toy Store link with a few of them earlier.
  6. hehe! the little thrusters at the top of those big booster packs look like they were lifted straight from an Apollo service module! Overall this thing looks pretty good!
  7. This is the problem right here.. when they cycle through staff then you don't get any consistency. For a little while back we had a good run with this guy who was happy to jump the fence, sign for you and leave it at the front door but he ended up losing his licence for speeding twice over the course of a year and ultimately lost his job. He was cool though. There have been a few good others but at the moment the guy who does my area is a bit of a knob. If I could stay home everyday then it wouldn't matter but I cant so I have to put up with it. My job does allow me a considerable amount of flexibility but clearly not enough.. any more and I guess that's called unemployment! And that's no fun..
  8. Ok so it doesn't look terrible but then again it doesn't look that good either. Think im gonna give this one a miss.. or at least wait till closer to release date for better more accurate pics. These are clearly photoshopped over and don't look any better than the original prototype photos from a few months back. I was hoping that they would have cleaned it up a little by now but these photos aren't very encouraging.
  9. Hehe! got a laugh out of this anyway.. Problem is I don't there they can afford the fuel to fly any of their F-16 to begin with!
  10. I enjoyed watching Voltron as a kid but all of the toys totally sucked.. Especially the Lions.
  11. not a Gundam kinda guy at all but this guy does look pretty cool!
  12. im sure you'd get something for them in here if you sold them off as a bundle.. One mans trash is always another mans treasure! Or yeah you could just bin em.
  13. that's just pathetic.. at least he could have waited a few seconds. But again I have the same issues here. Even if im home and the gates are open but no cars are visible as sometimes I park my car round the back then they won't even drive in the driveway and will pop the card in the mail box. Its just pure slackness on their part. And a pure frustration on mine. So did you say anything to him when you caught up with him? I know I would have!
  14. im eating more of them as I write this! hehe! dang they sooo good! I filled up the jar but its half empty already! gotta cut down on the sweet stuff..
  15. yuck! sorry to hear of your misfortune.. goes to show how dangerous moving furniture is! Hope you manage to put it back together some how..
  16. They ain't that bad.. but anyways I was able to use a whole bunch of rewards points with CDJ which completely wiped out the postage cost and then some!
  17. cool idea but im gonna stick with the original orange color! I think it looks the best and better resembles the target drones of years ago!
  18. that is very cool!
  19. Sweet pic Gundam! You're pretty good at this!
  20. hehe! Funny! looks like poorly applied fake tan!
  21. Great results but wouldn't any chemical application physically attack the plastic and accelerate the degradation process a bit quicker than normal? Most plastics, even in toys have some kind of preservative added which this stuff would eat away. On the surface at least. I did some work many years ago in a plastics and resin injection molding factory and remember them adding something into the mix..
  22. hehe! That wonky antenna was bugging me so much I thought I'd give it a little photoshop magic! Not quite 100% perfect but looks much better now!
