    I found this on YBW forum; it may explain a few things: Source:https://forums.ybw.com/threads/sticky-inflatable.406275/ It seems this is endemic to PVC items as a rule; don't know if this info helps or not, but temperature and UV does seem to play a role in it from what the posts there said.

    In that case, they should have made a missile that specifically targeted Isamu Dyson; with his ego, that explosion could have taken out Boldoza's entire fleet!

    Ah... so The Sentinels using SDFM designs and voices then? Or just the same thing continuing from where the last episode of the Macross Saga ended?

    Who programmed the AI, Pablo Picasso?

    *mumbles something about petrorabbits*

    Yeah; I was thinking more along the lines of missile ordnance than gunpod ammo myself. But that being the case, it would probably just make more sense to just target the craft for general destruction than to "nip off parts", right?

    Actually, they had a big stock of Testor's canned airbrush propellant really cheap; I'm hoping to stock up on some!

    In other words: they want American Macross.

    We have an Ollie's opening where Big Lots used to be later this month.

    Can't we just make Minmei:

    I would imagine that they could develop something were the the need to do so.

    That was my thought. I know IRL, the Javelin missile uses a "tandem warhead" to defeat armor, but that's not exactly what we're talking about. Ahnuld as Guld, Michael Biehn as Isamu... :lol:

    Understood; I was thinking more along the lines of solid ammo puncturing the wing and leaking the stuff all over the place.
  15. pengbuzz
    So what happens if, you know.... someone shoots the wing?

    It would be better if they did the version from TAS; that story was pure tragedy.
  17. pengbuzz
    Yeah, it should loosen them without harming the paint, and you can keep reapplying it until it gives.

    I've tried this on mine and it works fairly well (had to do this for my USS Reliant model kit when I replaced the hull registry on the saucer) 1) lightly scuff-sand the surface with #0000 grade steel wool (to remove any clear coat from the decals) 2) get some 3M office masking tape (beige kind, NOT that crappy "blue stuff, look in the stationery dept at Walmart for it), press it down firmly, smooth it out and wait 1 minute. Then, pull it up sharply; this should take at least some of the decal with it without ruining the paint (yes, even that which had Micro-Sol applied). Reapply a fresh piece of tape for each "pull" until you get it all off. 3) If any is stubbornly left on (or 2 isn't working), apply Micro-Sol, wait 3 minutes and then try with fresh tape again. It should break the bond without harming the paint. Let me know how this works for you; I've had good luck with this process on several models besides the reliant! -pengbuzz

    GRAMPA! DRINK YER PRUNE JUICE!!!

    And basically crap-sacks Mon Mothma from Rogue One and RotJ; unless I missed something in either film, she wasn't the wet dramatic blanket that Andor and Ahsoka make her out as.

    That would make sense, and HG won't do it. They have so little interest in reviving it (not to mention zero ability/ desire to invest any serious money into it) that it's guaranteed dead. When they tried to launch Shadow Chronicles, they played it cheap there, and with the Titan comics (and other comic book companies they ever used), paid low and from what I recall, even rooked them.
  22. pengbuzz
    Yeah, I call BS on them using that, being particularly familiar with Gallium's properties. It melts aluminum just by being placed on it, and reacts to a lesser extent with other metals. They may as well use peanut butter for all the good it would do.

    You can also try using hair spray; simply spray it where you want paint to not stick, paint your model, then a damp cloth to rub it away.

    Wow, I'm amazed they included his "crispy" head!!! O.o Guess ol' Pete better head back to Witch Mountain (IYKYK)...

    So, the figures are about 4 inch (same size as the ones I'm working on).
