    I've used ToyHax/ Reprolabels; their stuff really is top quality. They're also more durable than the original stickers.

    Easily fixed: (Good thing I save everything in layers!)

    Personally, I would, as super glue tends to have very poor shear strength. Cyanoacrylates have good tensile (pull) strength, but with sideways forces, I've found pieces repaired will come right apart. I'd remove the CA and use a different glue.

    That's what I was thinking when I saw it!

    Devcon Plastic Welder should work just fine. Not only does it bond very strongly (3500 psi strength), but it comes in black and cream, and fills any gaps left behind from breakage.

    Thanks!

    My vote would be Megaroad-1. Silence doesn't mean they died; for all we know, they found an entire part of the universe that radio signals don't propagate well through.

    Well, I ran an experiment with your model (decided to take a crack at this for ya!) and got the following:

    Is it a model kit or a transformable toy? Sorry to ask, but i can discern the plastic from that info.

    Would also love to see Goodfeathers and Slappy Squirrel make an appearance.

    I really appreciate that your group is translating this stuff; on that note, it's a good thing you folks picked up on those errors!

    Good call; money is hard enough to come by without some rip-off laying in wait for people to burn. I once ordered a V1.0 1/60 Yamato VF-1 and got burned on ebay. I couldn't challenge it because I ordered it on my friend's computer (I didn't have one at the time) and his PC crashed. All my stuff (including ebay purchase poof) was lost, ebay sided with the seller. This was back in the early '00's, so no chance of ever seeing it. Would have been nice to have a Yammie. Anyhoo: yeah, looks like these clowns aren't trustworthy Thom.

    Okay, while I'm working on piecing together my latest self-designed valk, my wife found one of those wooden cigar boxes at a place she shops at: As you can see, it was pretty beat up. But It looked like a good candidate for a storage container for my valk part (alt nose and other stuff for my 1/72 models). So.... Of course, couldn't forget to do the original signage on the can with the "yo!" And plenty of room inside, plus more if needed;

    Otherwise known as "achoo" camo (gesundheit).

    Finally, some pics of my newest in progress: Yeah...it's a bit of a mess right now: I'm still in the "how the heck is this supposed to work" phase of designing this one out. The cockpit/ front body in white is not staying in that particular config for long; I just need to add more plastic as I build this. At this stage, the parts are merely "forms" that I am using for primary building blocks to establish the basic transform. Once the transform is assembled and tested, then it's on to adding plastic, details and grinding parts to shape. And I plan on this one being a real doozy... Stay tuned folks...

    At least up until they lost control of the Evil-series bioweapons.

    Maybe they should just have a tv series starring Mark Hamill and Patrick Stewart playing these roles.:D

    Thanks for the clarification; sometimes I don't perceive things correctly. At this point, the Protoculture strongly remind me of John Hammond from Jurassic Park; too bad Ian Malcom wasn't there to tell them: "If I may... Um, I'll tell you the problem with the scientific power that you're using here, it didn't require any discipline to attain it. You read what others had done and you took the next step. You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don't take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could, and before you even knew what you had, you patented it, and packaged it, and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox.." " Don't you see the danger, John, inherent in what you're doing here? Genetic power is the most awesome force the planet's ever seen, but you wield it like a kid that's found his dad's gun." "Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, that they didn't stop to think if they should." Maybe the part about "not earning it for themselves" might not be accurate, but I feel the rest is.

    With the pilot being a "fail-safe" intended to ensure the weapon could not become autonomous on it's own and potentially turn on its' creators. Correct?

    Love the job you did on Prowl! All you need is some decals and a copy of Inner Circle's "bad Boys" and you're good to go!

    Hmm..I wonder if all Protoculture is extinct, of if perhaps a small pocket is still alive somewhere in the galaxy/ universe/ stored in heavy heavy layers of plot armor?
  22. pengbuzz
    Derex, no offense bro... but either you mean milimeters or that's one pretty hefty saucah!!!

    1/55's revisited

    pengbuzz replied to kanata67's topic in Toys

    While they're at it, they should reissue the Macross as well.

    Planning out my next project: another transforming fighter design. This time around, it's one of several stealth fighter designs developed in an inter-fleet contest in the campaign me and some friends were role-playing in Macross. I'll try to get some pics in a little bit: my camera is in the other room and I ache (old injuries) too much to go grab it at the moment.

    For doing a period piece.
