    I kinda figured it wasn’t gonna get renewed, but I think that a second season could have been good especially if they took the complaints about season one and learned from their mistakes. The actors and creators definitely cared about what they were doing even if it was a bit of a fail. You could definitely feel the love they put into the show and it is too bad they won’t get the chance to improve

    Definitely needs a clear blue visor

    It’s been a long time since any brain powered items popped up. I kinda forgot about that one

    I know there are a lot of 80’s nostalgia films and shows these days, but I really like how it was handled. The descriptions of how things were different and the parental overreaction to all things cool back then. I remember the satanic panic that went against dungeons and dragons and rock music and the arguments that cartoons teach us nothing but violence and were just half hour toy commercials. So when those parents have their meeting about the evils of Nintendo, that just had me laughing and wondering if kids these days would understand that adults were trying their best back then to kill all things fun.

    I finally got around to finishing it and I think the real problem is that they tried too hard to have a long story instead of just sprinkling in the syndicate stuff here and there for flavor. There definitely was some love that went into this from the creators to the actors, but the budget and overall story are the downside as well as a bumbling nemesis. If It were another character messing up leaving room for Vicous to take over would have been a more entertaining end for the season

    The crash is part of a design series that blends a lot of zeta designs with ffs. If I remember correctly they were the same designer. A few years back in resin form there was a similar idea with the O dragons heaven and samurai 7 since those were very similar

    Those are some nice entries so far. Can’t wait to see the rest

    In case anyone is looking for a fun new holiday film that is entertaining and good for the whole family, then check out 8 Bit Christmas. It’s kinda like the story telling of princess bride and a Christmas Story. It’s good mix of nostalgia for the older crowd that grew up in the late 80’s and lighthearted fun for anyone else. It’s a bit sappy at times, but it is a Christmas movie so it’s expected

    I think there’s something odd about the white. I haven’t had too many problems with the grey. I used too have all kinds of problems with enamel paints not sticking to anything. I personally like lacquer ones the best and luckily they’re getting easier to find. Maybe try mixing the tamiya paint with me leveling thinner instead of water or their thinner and that may give a little more bite to the paint on the primer

    I’ve personally never had good luck with the white. I do like their polyester putty, but that stuff is really getting hard to get a hold of. I was shopping online for some since I’m about halfway down an old tube and hobby king was offering it for $1.99. I got excited and went to preorder and the site notified me that they can’t ship it from their Hong King warehouse.

    I would absolutely love that idea. Give me articulated enemy soldiers in that cool armor and I would be the happiest bastard. It would be great standing next to any of the pods, power armors or even a gnerl. And speaking of gnerl, that seams like such a simple cool kit to go with the series

    I really like the Bandai kits
  13. Big s
    They really got into the exhaust detail

    I’m glad it’s doing well. If the demand is there then there’s more to come. The part separation and colors are neat, but there’s definitely gonna be some work for those that don’t like seam lines. Still can’t wait to see more pictures and definitely want to see how much this thing can pose. I also like that it has a lot of clear parts for the sensors

    Some of this trading kits are tough to get the one thing you really want. The sellers often don’t want to open them for collector values and others are trying to dump their entire stock and only sell the full case. You could try eBay, and see if any seller has some opened.

    I’ve recently been building one of the power armors for Star ship troopers that wave put out. And I had seen a meme picture on the images of a cross between that and a tomahawk and now I’m looking at that above picture and I can see that there are so many similarities in the designs between the two, like the joints and the head

    I think the lack of rivets is probably since those things were made using large automated factories without the idea of repair, that they would be just slap welded without bolts, screws or even rivets or possibly any major maintenance hatches or panels. I think the most maintenance they did was to make sure they had fuel and ammo, but maybe they only worried about ammo. If there would be rivets or bolts it’s possible that they would actually be massive and few and far between due to their size. Realistically for their size it may be more like a car body where they don’t show, but I’m not a giant alien mechanic
  18. Big s
    They do have size measurements in the description at most of the sites offering it. The body does look a little thin from the drawing shown, but it’s not enough to bug me. I will probably reserve my judgment until I see a full build or at least the prototype built up. I think the thing I’m still most curious about is how they’re gonna handle the knee joints. That’s always been a point of compromise between looking like the line art and poseability

    The d1 kit is up for preorder. Got mine from bbts

    I remember back when hasegawa first did macross vf 1 fighter kits and said to myself, they probably won’t do the battroid mode. Years later they’ve done all three modes super strike and an upcoming armor pack and for some reason I doubted any enemy mecha, now I’m really hopeful for more and maybe some destroids as well. I don’t even know where I would put a 1/72 monster, but I still want one
  21. Big s
    I got mine at hobby search. That sale price for a couple will make up for the shipping. I honestly didn’t think a 1/72 modern kit for the regult would be that inexpensive. I guess they save on cost by not having arms
  22. Big s
    $21 bucks not bad just hoping the knees have some articulation.
  23. Big s
    Saw it and instantly preordered. Just couldn’t resist and hoping for more enemies. Wave took care of a couple of destroids, maybe hasegawa is getting more brave. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for macross model kits
  24. Big s
    Transition to amplify, maybe. I don’t really know and never thought to question it. It’s like why is the gelgoog named that or most of the evil mobile suits . I think I heard Zaku was a marching in unison sound gouf was a running sound and dom was a heavy stomp, but I don’t really know. Gundam is weird

    I have this weird feeling that if it’s not a double pack then one of them will be put off for a while and possibly forgotten altogether. So double pack for me
