    Thanks guys. I really REALLY love the design too. It’s a perfect update of the classic ship that, as chronocidal said, really works well as a bridge to the Refit (scale not withstanding) Personally, it’s far more believable that this design would become the Refit than the original. I ordered a second kit that want to paint up in more traditional colors...either TOS or closer to the Refit era. I’d really like some aftermarket parts like new engines and maybe a torpedo housing to go with it. It’s a perfect sized kit for me, again not considering scale, as it’s not as big as the old Ertl Refit kit or as small as the classic ships in 1/1000 kits...which are a descent size too. Just need some options. New ship names and registries would be nice too. i did some more work on her this eve, but the light is not great for such detail work and overhead light causes too much glare. I have a quarter of the saucers underside left to do now and the the edges. That should be finished tomorrow, then on to the upper surface. Chris

    All I know is people that pronounce decals like “Deck-els” are statans spawn! Chris

    Been doing lots of builds lately. Almost finished 2 Bandai X-Wings (Reds 2 and 6) and just started the new R2 1/1000 Discover Enterprise. Doing all the paneling on the Enterprise with artist pencils by hand. the base coat is MM acrylic Aluminum. EVERYTHING else is pencil work. Chris

    I guess my ticket didn’t get to NY in time but at least my 0D shipped. REALLY looking forward to getting it. Hope it won’t be too long. Chris

    Glad I could help, your reviews are always a great help. Chris

    The silhouette is not encouraging to me as it seems to show a lot of rough edges on the bottom of the jet likely indicating a lot of bot kibble on the underside. Chris

    Good review but you skipped Showing the chest/torso rotation step. Also the intake panels on the back rotate up onto the back sealing up the cavity. Chris

    Any new pictures of The Top Gun “Maverick”? Would love to see what they did with the F-14. Chris

    Ironically, the part of the transformation that I was looking forward too the most is probably the biggest PITA in practice for me....the frigging cockpit. Getting the nose over the cockpit is tough for me for some reason like there is not enough clearance. Once in soldier mode I can never get the canopy open because the swing bars on either side block it. (Maybe I’m doing something wrong when transforming it. ) Then when transforming back to fighter getting the cockpit to lock back into place is such a pain. Not sure if the pegs on the sides of the cockpit are just a bit too long thus making it hard to get into place. Don’t want to sand them and then it will be too loose. Chris

    The Legioss is not much longer than a Colonial Viper from Battlestar Galactica. Chris

    Ok I seriously doubt they will understand this but I’m giving it a try anyway. I submitted a ticket to upgrade the shipping of the VF-0D order to UPS while also asking to down grade my shipping on my SSP set to SAL Ferry and then apply the Shipping cost refund to the shipping of the VF-0D to try and save some money. What are the odds they will understand that? Lol! Chris

    Should be a tab at the top center of the page in red that says Language/currency. Chris

    Yeah, what’s the point in keeping it clear if it has THAT on the inside surface! Just paint it black or dark blue or something. Chris

    Hey, I actually really like the T-70 X-wings and it makes sense that a successful fighter design would continue on in new variants. Happens in real life and in other franchises too. Chris

    Love the people with 1 post coming here and posting they got 3. Glad we helped potential scalpers out. Chris

    Agreed, was already signed in but the checkout process has so many steps and they won’t protect things in your cart during the checkout process. Chris

    If you get an extra let me know, you saved me with the Max I got cart jacked twice tonight. Chris
  21. Dobber
    MOTHER frakkER! Went through the whole process and was still cart Jacked!! Chris

    Man you guys where lucky, I was refreshing there without a problem when it was “opening soon” and then it just kicked me out. Chris

    One last thing....you guys may want to make sure you can still log in at HLJ, old passwords may not work there anymore and you need to go through a password reset. Hate for anyone to get cart jacked because they couldn’t log in there.

    I’m now 2 for 2 with preorder madness got both the 1j and Hikaru 1S at AmiAmi, and failed miserably with the Max and Roy. Still got a max from a kind MW member though. Chris
