    That Grogu one is just too cute for words!

    I've used that set for pilots before; should be an easy go of it!

    No, it's Disney Wars: check your wallet at the door (after they get ya for a ton of merchandising)

    Just remember: thermal exhaust port... Big bad death star but still went boom...

    Or...they could mistake him for Agent Whiskey and go after the Statesmen on Planet Earth.

    Taking a break from the Regult for a bit... kinda burned out on it. meantime, did a small side-project based on FEXT Hobbies' "Sci-Fi" hangar system (the one I saw in the following pic was specifically designed and printed custom for someone named "Saburo", for a Macross setup: Well, being continually broke, I was left to my own devices (and paintbrush): I put my own spin on it, doing just a small section with a door (based on the Macross Factory door). I didn't want to totally rip off the poor guy, but it was just too cool a display to not want!

    Who says dreams don't come true? :D

    Boba could use his own series, with the same actor playing him in The Mandalorian taking the role. One story from the comics I wish they'd do (though it's when Vader was alive) Is "When the Fat Lady Swings".

    No problem; Axoid was my first Revell Valk, folowed by Vexar; I have both again (thanks to some friends here )painted in their Macross colors (Roy and Hikaru, respectively). And I remember the box well: BTW: anyone ever notice in these pics that the legs are on backwards in Battroid mode?

    Axoid would be the third.

    If I ever do a Glaug pod, I'll name it "Ernie"

    UPDATE: Well, did some improvements to the Regult to bring it more "in line" to what it should actually look like: I re-did the front faceplate to sit more flush with the rest of the main body. Additionally, I extended the "chin" on the main body, as it was way too small and was throwing off the look of the entire model. The feet got a makeover also: While not as curvy as they should be, they are a vast improvement from the previous ones that were barely there. To rebuild them, I used cardboard tubing and hot melt glue to build the feet up, then drilled a wooden dowel into the shin/ ankle to mount them on. I may do more improvements on them, so this is by no means "final". Onto the top of the head, now: Thanks to an early Christmas gift from a good friend ( ), I was able to make the mounting dome for the rearward head cannons. They swivel on a styerene "pin" that I made from a piece of sprue. I just need to outline and detail the main entry hatch for the cockpit, and then "detail out" the various details still lacing on this model (panels, signage, etc). Stay tuned... don't make Bert (yeah, I named him "Bert"!) angry...you wouldn't like him when he's angry...

    All they need now is a titan with a hockey mask and a machette...

    For all we know, he was being paid by the project.
  17. pengbuzz
    That was part of the inspiration for my joke!

    Does it count that Basara was a professional pain in the a$$? Hmm...that would explain a bit about him.
  19. pengbuzz
    That was something else I was thinking... Col. Barton was drilling them hard and it didn't pan out very well.

    I think I may understand why... The more the military is involved in a project, the more rules and regulations come into play, along with orders, discipline and the like. Creativity, on the other hand, generally needs the freedom to imagine, dream and live in order to create. In order to use the VF-19 Kai to its' fullest potential, a creative must pilot it, and have the freedom to do so without being bound up by endless rules, regulations, etc. One scene I recall showed the upper brass trying to "tell" Basara that he had to sing from a list of songs they picked (and of course, Basara warmed up to that idea like tungsten to a candle). I'm not sure how much Max would have known about musicians specifically (Emilla, one of his eldest daughters, loved to sing as evidenced by Macros 7: The Galaxy Is Calling Me, and of course there is Mylene); but I think he would have picked up on at least some of that. Also, with Dr. Chiba's input, they probably made the determination to keep the project on the "qt", as having too many people involved means a lot of folks trying to insert their input. Anyways, just my 2 cents. Seto Kaiba probably has a better explanation for it.

    And of course, Mylene's whining, but that only counts if she's flying with Basara. :P
  22. pengbuzz
    Except for the missiles in the lower legs that Basara was trying to remove and Ray convinced him to leave them in.
  23. pengbuzz
    If Basara subscribes to Lynn Kyle's philosophy as the stuff I read says he does, then all whiskey bottles beware his fearsome kick!

    Wow... sounds likr that fleet needed someone to sae it from its' own government! "Full Relina"... as in Relina of the Sanc Kingdom in New Mobile Report Gundam Wing? If that's the case, "doormat" may be a fairly kind nomenclature. IIRC, her kingdom got absolutely plowed.

    You have some really good points; I thought the two fleets represented how the conditions aboard colony fleets had become by the time of Macross Delta. About a bit after Macross 7 (a few years after Basara's time, but it's a bit anachronistic in that the setting involves the colony fleets having M+/ M7 tech, while Earth is using Macross II stuff (don't ask me why...my GM is a bit of a mystery! lol ). After your report on how the MII stuff stacks up, not sure it would work. In the game, the Unity Gov't. has gotten pretty arrogant and think they have what it takes to paste Zentraedi main fleets like a turkey shoot.
