    Actually yes. They posted on their website that they would be off for holiday until today. By the look of their site, they seem to be back in action with new items listed for the 16th.

    Yeah, the places where different color parts go together work really well. The only part I think the multi color will kick in for Valks is small multi color detail areas. The eyes for the Fumina figure are the best example of what they can accomplish with the tech. Zero paint required for the figure (unless I want to try to blend some sprue marks a bit better but I'm not going to.).

    Yep! The process is really cool and the figure looks great overall. It's hard to say how much difference the multi color injection makes without seeing the same thing without multi color next to it but the arms are not multi color injected and I think the body and legs do have some more realistic tone and depth to them. Only problem to me is I don't get why they chose to put some of the multi color sprue connections on exposed parts of the skin where you can see the two colors. The sprue marks were a pain and many of them were unremoveable to me. The mold seam lines on the other hand were very easy to blend out. The new process intrigued me, which is the main reason I got this kit and looking at it on my shelf right now, it looks fantastic! I also wanted some practice with kits before I put the little canon parts on my PF SDF-1 and build a bunch of Star Wars kits I've had sitting around for years.

    First "Gunpla" I've built in years!

    Oh man! I have not been paying too much attention to TVC releases but this is a must have. Thanks for sharing!

    Everyone got their Surfers!

    That looks a lot better than the padded envelope packaging the other guy here who just got his VF-1S Messer from Amazon.jp got.

    Ouch! The seller is a complete ass for shipping that internationally (or any other way) in just a padded envelope. Might as well be a regular envelope since the padding does nothing to prevent it from being crushed.

    That's a great looking custom!

    I just noticed I forgot to include a link: http://northamerica.llumar.com/window-film-for-homes

    So far, I do it on all my cars...I get all windows tinted with quality ceramic films, including 80% on the windshield and it keeps my cars cooler inside even after parked under the sun all day and provides UV protection all around. Definitely noticeable because you can get burned driving in the sun with windows up but not in my cars. Anyways, when picking a film, just make sure you read the specs and make sure it has 99% or more UV protection. Here is a site for one company that I have used and you can see spec sheets for all their films to get an idea of the options.

    What about a combo? Hex inside, 3 missile tree outside.
  17. Slave IV
    Awesome!
  18. Slave IV
    And just went ahead and put together the other backdrop I have

    Here we go! So far, I will echo the other reviews about this. Very nice product, not quite Bandai HMR level of quality on their official GBP but still very nice with awesome extras. I really like the backdrop and the options it gives you to build them up. I wish I could just buy those.
  22. Slave IV
    I have 202 and just got it. Will try to do it some justice but that is going to be part of my work desk Valk so I don’t have any lights or my good camera there. Hopefully no one complains too much about the pics I end up with again.

    More box means more weight.
  24. Slave IV
    And it’s on! My Thunder Hummers and another wave of MLs (should be the new Deadpool wave).
  25. Slave IV
    I'll probably get a booster, especially if it ends up looking good in the final version and the extras are desirable. I don't care about slavish line art accuracy for an accessory like this or in general.
