    LOL ".." Two Glaugs!? That's like millions of dollahs!!! I ordered three! No, j/k only one, and I am really excited about it. I always wanted one a Glaug, and finally, the wait is nearly over. I love your collection sh9000, please post more pictures if you can. It is like looking at stormtroopers in a way. You can't get enough of them!

    i am going do a action photo session, at last. Glaug vs TV Hikaru. Ha i nearly cancelled my Glaug order to get me one of those MPP-10, but I already have MP-10 and MP10b. I kept the Glaug order since it seems so hard to get. Maybe i should paint silver details on my MP-10 myself and call it a day. I can't recall what is the differences are between the HM and HMR Hikaru. Vlen goes to youtube...

    i hope they do M&M justice. I wont be able to get them, but i adore this lil' line. I only have the old HM TV hikaru, and he is great. Oh, and the Regult... and the Glaug... I there i thought the Hikaru would be it.
  9. OH why can't the windows just be dark tint. Yes, Decepticons are eccentric, I know. If Loudpedal was just black, no sticker, and if his windows would be black tainted, this would be an instant hit... for me.

    Ok last pic Oh and there are still Glaugs at HLJ. I caved in...
  11. Yes Aaajin, that is my good ol' revoltech Regult. I could only afford one HMR Regult
  12. Thanks No3jim, i am trying. Saburo, those are some great shots, I am amazed. You have the eye and the skill for it, I love your work. Ok i played with my light sources, and here is the progress...I noticed i had the lights on in my room and these were being captured by the camera. I had to have total darkness to get the effect i desired. I think this is as much as I can do with my own phone camera. My digital camera broke some months ago, and this is all i have, lol. I am not trying to hijack the thread, sorry.
  13. Saburo, I am using 3 lights. 2 of them diffused and the other i bounce off a piece of colored or white paper. Are you cropping those images, or is the background perfectly black?
  14. Yeah Saburo great pics. I'm trying to light things well, but I think I need a better camera than just my phone's.
  15. I was referring to the point you made about transforming the YF-19 from fighter to gerwalk. Anyway, beautiful bird.
  16. In short words, the 19 feels nice, but the wings feel like they nearly stab you. They are sharper than Yamato's wings. This may make the 19 feel somewhat flimsy, but I think this is done for cartoon accuracy/fighter sharpness. As i recall, The eternal complaint about the 19 and the 21 was about anime magic. Some said Mac+ transforming toys would never be sharp or slim as the their show's counterparts. I think the 19 finally looks slim enough. It is a sharp looking bird, I love it. Could it use some improvement? Anything can, but I think it was a great effort. BTW: Chrono, I don't know if my Arcadia 19 is different, but the wings rotate slightly out to allow fighter to Gerwalk transition. It was very easy to me, I don't know if I'm missing something from your explanation. I wish I can get my hands on a bandai VF-19 advanced in the future, and see how much superior it is. I have the old Yamato YF-19, so naturally I'm very happy with Arcadia's improvements over the old design. My only complaint is the ankles do not have enough clearance for extreme gerwalk poses. Edit in: I wrote this in a hurry, so i had to correct it.
  17. Oh man I wanted a "no paint ver" back then, but i was broke. It looks gorgeous Spanner.
  18. Wow Spanner, I've never seen that VF-1j before
  19. I've only gone as far as Gerwalk. The right forearm is sort of tough to slide into place, but it is the only tricky thing i've found so far. I like the feel of the thing.

    I really like this HMR Regult
  21. Ratchet, Arcadia's 19, and HMR Regult. I am good for another year or two
  22. I lost count at 55 valks [all scales] about 8 years ago. I might be at 61 valks now, lol I really thought 1/48 was the shiz back then, and I'll stick by them. I did have to get the TV series 1/60 Roy, hikaru, Kakizake, Max,the VF-1d, and the recent Arcadia's YF-19. i never opened them, but i hope their shoulders are trouble less.
