Thank you... you are too kind. Thanks for the info on the AJAC. I am familiar with it as I though, I'd just forgotten it's name. If you ever want my email address feel free to PM me. I'm no longer with TI so the email address you see over at Carl's corner is no longer good and Shawn just hasn't had the time yet to take it down. Carl

You are welcome... That's not the model section... that's Carl's corner. I think that's the RETPPU kit seen here. That picture you posted has been around a while and I think its too old to be any of the other EAGER kits I'm aware of. There was one other EAGER kit available here in the states which I think wasn't licensed however I never got one while they were available. It's the last kit listed here: http://www.artemisgames.com/robotech/Resea...ada/Models.html Anyone know if Hot Goblin Modeling Garage Kit is still around in some form? Oh... and something else I should point out. See the "Lark Garage Kit" of the 1/100 Legioss and Tread? That IS the MonoCraft kit. I've seen it elsewhere called the MonoCraft/Lark kit. The 1/100 scaling info is wrong. That came from a typo in the same magazine that picture of the kit was grabbed from. Note the Lark kit is listed at 5800 yen. Check out the price of the MonoCraft kit (lower left corner). Carl

Cool... One question/comment though. The New Type hobbies tread was manufactured by a store (which I think is now closed) out in California. I find it just a little odd that you can trace it back to Japan. However I'm sure some of them did make it over there. My first thought after reading that it was from Japan was that you might of had a Monocraft kit. They were made in Japan. However looking at your directions I'd say you've got the New Type kit. Could you post a picture of your box? A little history if anyone is interested. The owner of New Type Hobbies and Toys bought the master Monocraft used to make their kit. It was in rough shape so he fixed it up a bit and added the ability to build the Tread as a stand alone kit. However he never licensed the kit. I've talked to him and his claim is that he used the same license Monocraft had. However Monocraft's license was only good in Japan and New Type sold them here in the states. Also you never see the sticker on the New Type kits that are on the Monocraft kits. The improvements New Type made make theirs a better kit in my opinion however if you get right down to it, its a recast of the Monocraft kit. Atleast it used the same master. Just a little info, Carl

There are 3. http://www.macrossworld.com/mospeada/_tread_models.htm Carl

You have GREAT taste my friend. The Tread is my favorite mecha too. I must ask... (and I'm sure this is a studip question) what is an AJAC? There is only one vehicle that trumps the Tread in my opinion and that is the Land Master from the movie "Damnation Alley". Now WHY has no one EVER made a kit of that? Carl

Macross II just model kits only VF-2SS. This being the toy section maybe this isn't worth mentioning but there are more Macross II model kits out there then just the VF-2SS. B-Club has done the VF-2JA (both Battroid and Fighter), the Gilgamesh, and the Metal Siren. Have a look here: http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/models/b-club/b-club.htm Also if you get the Musasiya VF-2SS, it comes with 3 Zentradi pods. It's been a while since I've watched Macross II so I'm not sure what the "Red alien mecha" is you are refering to at the moment. Carl

Cool. I wasn't aware of that offer. I'm betting I'm probably too late to get in on it but do you have any pics of the freebie Lego Jedi Starfighter? I'm guessing it's not the same $40 something kit that is selling in stores... is it? Carl P.S. Just found this: Is that what you are talking about?

Yes, please. I'd love to read it. Thanks, Carl

I present to you the Kellogg's Darth Maul light saber. Enjoy, Carl

There was an ad during the last episode (about 40 minutes in) that said the producers wanted you to see a scene that they didn't have room to include in the final episode and that it would be aired on Good Morning America the next morning. Since I taped the episode I didn't see this ad in time or I would have had Tivo tape Good Morning America. I was hoping someone had put it up on the internet by now but I haven't found it yet if so. Carl

I half expect it to turn out Sawyer is now holding onto the side of the boat that is zipping away. Could he have acted like he was shot to take the others attention off of him? Also that is a very interesting gif. Where did you find it? Can anyone else confirm that the pilot actually had that in it. I no longer have it on tape and I'm thinking that might have been digitally added in by someone playing around after the fact. Just curious... Carl

Anyone see the secret scene that was on Good Morning America this morning? I had Tivo tape the final episode and I didn't know about the secret scene till after Good Morning America had aired? One point that bothers me that I haven't seen anyone else mention is the cable Sayid found. Was it a phone line, a power line, what? And why isn't anyone trying to find out what it is? Sayid even told the rest about it and no one seems to be trying to follow up on it. Carl

I have no idea about those, however, I'm pretty sure most things that come from Supershadow are Fake. Chris Thanks, but check out the links now. I think Supershadow had been up for years and a day or two after I posted those links here the site is taken over. Did my post here put that site on someone's radar screen? Heck, even if I agree with their reason for taking over the site, they sure DON'T go out of their way to make themselves look good about it. Odd coincidence? Carl

None of the SHE kits have gone down in value so I'd think you wouldn't have any problem getting back the original retail price. If you pinned me down to a number I'd say $200 to $300 but I haven't been watching eBay or Yahoo Japan for these for a while. I've seen some of the really rare SHE kits sell for over a $1000 but I don't think the YF-21 would come close to that. Just my 2 cents, Carl

I've got one of these. Does that count? I was eating breakfast with my boys this morning and I had (what I think is) a great idea. Someone needs to take a couple of these and make a Darth Maul version with a spoon on one end and a fork on the other. Anyone here think they could make something like that? I'd LOVE to have one. Carl

WOW!!! How have I missed the prior updates? Great work. Carl

If you want to get picky aren't there two versions of the Toynami MPC. Didn't the first 500 (or was it a 1000?) have a slightly different paint scheme? Carl

I haven't read all 10 pages of this thread yet but in regards to episodes 7, 8, and 9. Have others here seen these? Star Wars Episode 7 Plot Summary Star Wars Episode 8 Plot Summary Star Wars Episode 9 Plot Summary I see George Lucas is credited for them but if I recall correctly these have been around for a while and I have no idea if they are official or not. Anyone know more? Carl

I'm looking for Volume 2 on DVD now. I can't seem to find it anywhere and I'm starting to wonder if it's even been released yet. If it has why doesn't amazon.com atleast list it? If it's NOT out where does stuff like this come from? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=6398216352 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=6397277861 Are people out there making there own DVD box art? Thanks, Carl

I haven't. Could someone post a link? Just curious to hear what he has to say. Thanks, Carl

WOW!!! Who made that beta... I have to know? Carl

Seeing as I'm 2 hours away from the nearest Target store, I had a quick question. (1) Is the exclusive track available if you order on line? http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/ref=p...asin=B000850IS6 I see no mention of it? (2) The description also doesn't mention the DVD. Did your Target copy come with the DVD? Thanks, Carl

True... but I don't remember seeing the transformation sequence before. I really like it. If someone makes a variable kit of this I'll certainly buy one. Carl

Was this the same one that was later posted? That one seems to be 20.1MB. If there is more out there, or a higher quality version, I'd like to see it. Carl

Anybody watching this auction? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=5574519466 I'm guessing it's a hammer you can use to knock yourself out with. Note it only seems to take you forward in time, not back again. As such the only line that doesn't fit seems to be this one "Also, I would not consider myself overly wealthy, but I have used this device several times to find out the results of lotteries." Surely those bids aren't real. Personally I liked checking out the sellers past wins. Ask youself what would someone with a time machine want to buy from this time period off eBay. What ever you guess I can almost assure you that you are wrong. Odd... very very odd... Carl
