    I think I just used a little pin vice hand drill and the smallest bit. Then just used some thin wire from bread wrap twit ties. The colors are actually fine, usually just the grey that’s already required, but the polycaps can be a bit shiny and any weathering can easily rub off along with top coats. I’ve seen some people having a bit of luck with vinyl paints and plastidip, but others that tried the same stuff without much luck

    There are already a lot of experiments with controlling aircraft without using arm and leg movements. Mostly eyes and temple attachments, but brainwave control might not be too far off either since they’re also doing experiments with brain chips, oddly a lot in paralysis treatment. Controlling simple functions like flaps and such might actually be easier than the stuff trying to get the upper spine to control lower leg nerves. as far as variable shape materials, they do exist, but I think it’s a long way from doing something as complex as the wings on the YF-21. But I will say that things are further along than I thought they’d be a couple decades ago. I just really haven’t seen many practical uses for these materials due to issues with durability and trying to get the materials to do more complex movements. Most at the moment are memory type materials that usually just flex from one shape back to the original form.

    Probably for looks. It actually looks better than their usual double jointed elbows. It will limit the elbow bend just a bit, but not enough to really bug me since there wouldn’t be many poses he needs with his arm bent that far.

    She was in a few shows and some movies, but I really remember her as Hot Lips. Like a lot of folks from my age, used to watch the show and watched many reruns of it since it had been syndicated and would the show would be on all the time. The movie that the show was based on is really awesome, but I think the show sticks in my memory due to repeated watching.

    Pretty cool addition there

    Those wave Ma.K kits go together fairly easily, even though they have seams here and there. I just wish they could’ve upgraded the joints by now to not be exposed polycaps. Those things really don’t like paint. Also make sure to have some thin wire and a small drill bit for the backs of the feet for those details there

    That’s a bright camo. Looks cool.

    It only took a few years to go from a computer the size of a room to be outshined by a personal computer and for that to be outshined by the smartphone. Depending on the necessity, technology moves fairly quickly and world conflicts supported by super powers tend to move technology faster than most catalysts

    So I guess they’re trying to cover all the leftover major holidays with a thanksgiving part, the Christmas and finally New Year’s

    I don’t think it’s too far out. Some dude tried to marry a stupid hatsuna miku, and it really didn’t have an ai. AI as it stands is a long way from something that could run a military op, but we do have self driving vehicles and a lot of the tech is coming along fairly quickly. Might only be a few decades before an AI is flying a drone and able to pick targets on its own, maybe less. We already have pre programmed drones doing wild things at concerts. Might not be too far out for combat with all the conflicts popping up.

    I’m definitely checking this one out. I love Del Toro movies.

    That’s only thirty something, so I’ll give you a runner up price of a 👍

    40 something year old acrylics might be really tough to bring back, if not impossible. not saying it wouldn’t be entertaining to see someone try though. And I’d definitely try my best to give that person that successfully does it a high five somehow

    I get that, but it was an already finished ova not a designed for tv series and they weren’t planning on adding to it, at least not as more of Char’s adventure or whatever.

    I’m not saying at all that it’s a good idea, but it’s a very Star Wars thing that some cartoon or comic book or lesser show writers could easily try and might actually do.

    Basically that description of X shows that it was cancelled. They at least let them try and finish up somewhat. and I don’t think advent of the red comet really counts since it was just the origin ova and not really a tv show, kinda similar to the tv version of unicorn. I really wasn’t too certain on reco though, but that and witch are definitely on the shorter side and I’m pretty sure this new one will be short as well, but really not sure if it will just end at 12 or go on for another season, but at this point I don’t expect an almost 50 episode series

    Just get a frumpy purple jumpsuit and a shotgun and you’ll be close to scale with the Kitz Concept action figures of Hikaru and Max and the rest. or go to your local vintage clothing store and you can be a micronized one. And there’s plenty of options depending on your body type

    This is another film I’m a bit curious about. Will it be more video game come to life or could it go as far as a throwback to 80’s dark fantasy like a modern version of Legend

    I’m kinda curious about this one returning. Can Bobby actually function as an adult? How many of the older characters will be missing? And will the Hank still be the main focus?
  20. Big s
    Kleya making a return seems more likely than a lot of other characters. As far as my goofy Deedra returns theory, it would almost play into a story where post war Kleya tries to bring imperials to justice for their roles in the many massacres that happened. It could be very easy for people to be lost in the shuffle after the power shifts hands and quite a few imperials could try and blend in or like we’ve seen in other cases have gone into hiding

    Looks great. I think that with the skull and crossbones that it would have looked even cooler though if it had yellow stripes instead of red
  22. Big s
    Looks like this guy is getting way more than a basic makeover.
  23. Big s
    I’m really curious to see the Monster. I fell like out of the old school kits that that one may be one of the most challenging due to all the seams and the fit issues. Also to try and keep the lines even between the two halves may require some scribing skills.
  24. Big s
    Looks better than mine. The little mods really added a lot to the appearance
  25. Big s
    Unlikely, but not impossible
