  1. I get the feeling that that’s basically a generic term for an alien creature, not so much just the big chap or their kind. and the numbering is more about the known type. But then again they could’ve run into these things during capture. I think they mentioned some casualties during that process.
  2. Personally, I’ve always loved the tv version more and couldn’t wait for this one. I only bought the M&M versions and skipped the standard purple, mostly cause I don’t really like purple, so this will be my third. Although I’ve been tempted on the purple one because I love that box art and would love to turn it into a sorta wall poster
  3. Not black is tough. Gotta go dark, but not too dark and then shading is rough cause it can just disappear and then lighter highlights can look too light and then certain weathering products turn darker with top coat. Good luck and I’m sure you’ll get a great looking kit done as long as you take care and definitely take a little time to test things out.
  4. The front of the tv arm launchers is angled, but the movie ones have a flat end
  5. I wish I had the space, but unfortunately, it’s the 1/144 version for me
  6. Love the little collection
  7. I like the small kits as well. One of my favorites and sadly discontinued line of Macross kits were the tomytec vf-1 models. I really wish that line would get a revive cause they were great for the size and came with cool decal options if you didn’t want them as is. I would’ve loved for them to have done destroids and zentraedi mecha to go with them
  8. Looks really great so far and love the little dudes He’s definitely come a long way, but I do gotta say that people new to the hobby these days have far more resources than people starting out before the age of the internet. There’s also been a lot of innovation in tools and tricks that weren’t around a decade or so ago. I think community has a lot to do with newer builders compared to the lack of community back in the day. There’s also a certain amount of natural talent that some people have for learning a hobby or music or art. Some people just catch on to these things much faster than others
  9. I was trying to be nice, but smeared works better.
  10. Yeah, not sure how all this is gonna play out.
  11. Why would it be white? It usually looks more gray in the show. I really didn’t get a great look at them in the movie version though. i was thinking more like a few junkers got parts together from things in the Macross 2 universe and kinda slapped things together
  12. I really love the movie version and would also get at least one tv version. The only thing other than larger ships would be the gnerl fighter and I’d definitely get at least one of them
  13. I built one of the Bandai rereleases of that kit the first round a while back and still have fond memories of it. There appears to be more surface details on the old kit since it’s based more on the detailed art rather than the tv line art and show appearance. Although I kinda wish it had that extra surface detailyou can see the tv one is much smoother like the new kit, but most of the extra detail would just take a bit of thin plastic sheet. The added venting stuff would be a bit more difficult though
  14. I personally just really like the black and green, but often I do like the grunts
  15. They’re the same other than color, although you may want to wait a bit and see if they do the standard color version with a slightly different pilot, but it would only be very slightly different if anything
  16. Here’s the description for the Queadluun Rau from hobby searchI’m just really glad it seems they changed up the necessary stuff rather than just doing what they did with the Macross kit
  17. Everything listed is up for preorder, I checked an hour ago and they weren’t there, but they’re up now. I ordered the Queadluun Rau and looks like November release, but not sure how shipping and such will go down by then
  18. I guess there’s also a 1/12 resin figure to add to the hasegawa list of upcoming goodies
  19. Thanks for the update, I feel relieved now. Hopefully they do a full resin figure of her like they did the movie version. As far as the Glaug, I really don’t know other than maybe the figure would look too small, but then why bother with a cockpit. Maybe by the time a tv Nousjadeul Ger happens, they’ll give him a chance
  20. I didn’t know people ate popcorn at church. I never go, so I guess I wouldn’t know
  21. Did it say they weren’t including Mirya in this version? I did think it odd they left out Kamjin, but I don’t know if that’s really the reason since Plamax hasn’t had any problems and I don’t think hasegawa had any issues with the tv vf-1 kits
  22. I definitely need this one
  23. I hate to hear that you got hurt, but at least you’re a true hero
  24. I was kinda thinking about it and I was liking the movie up until Bucky figured out that they had to do something about Bob. I think they should have done more of the group trying to nail their employer and less of the big bad God Bob. I still don’t get the groups motivation for giving up at the end, they could’ve nailed her and just said Bucky was their political support for the group. It was such a terrible ending that it kinda just will make the movie rather forgettable. I don’t think I’ll ever rewatch it like I did with a lot of the older marvel movies. The whole thing felt more like a tv show plot for a mostly skippable episode than a full on movie story
  25. Next time it’s taco day, remember that you’re not in the menu because we all look forward to your updates on the hobbies. Can’t wait to see how things go once that arm heals up. Be safe and get well soon and don’t overdo things too soon
