    Yeah, I wish more were made. I still have a few of the Trex kits just lying around.

    In the first picture, the Zentran figure on the far left is by DarrinG. The Meltran figure is a custom I did using a kit bash of a Milia 639 figure and parts of a Wave Moveable Body to make a Meltran action figure. I think I used a Gundam figure's head for the face, and just painted the cap to match the dark red. The figures on the right that I made are Trex Zentraedi kits that I put together in the 3 more popular colors.
  3. That looks impressive. I hope there are more updates soon.

    That's why I stuck to the CM's figures. Sure, they don't pose, but if I'm going to creatively put them in a shelf or on display, they don't need to move. I do though, think differently about Zentraedi figures
  5. I definitely like fighter best. But that's my opinion of most valkyries.
  6. More up... I still need to put magnets on the arms for the gun, but honestly, I've been lazy.
  7. I'll try to get some more pics up at some point. I still want to make the gun connect, and I need to find where I put the tires.
  8. Aside from some decal trimming, it I'd done.
  9. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/zentraedi-glaug This is where I got it from. Again, it is quite expensive, to print, but it is a pretty cool print.
  10. Well, it's in a shipping box and DHL now have the mission to deliver this bad boy to my house. Also finally got the Klan VF-25 girl kit on the way with it. Next week should have a good day in there.
  11. Yeah, too bad no more updates ever came. I was looking forward to getting one each of these.

    This figurine is absolutely beautiful. I'm so glad I was able to get one. The detail of it is insane.

    They were selling these on rt.com about 3-4 years ago for about $25.

    It says middle of December, so I'm just waiting for my payment notice for Sheryl.

    The Sheryl Gorgeous figure has been once again delayed. Delay says late December now.

    Looks like the Gorgeous Sheryl Nome figure is delayed again until late November. I got an email from AmiAmi.
  17. In total, I believe it is 12 of various sizes. If you buy a decent number of 1mmx20mm pins, you can always cut down those to make proper sizes, but you do need (I believe) 2 1mmx20mm pins, a a few 12mm, maybe 4 10mm, and smaller from there. Most of them are in the landing gear. You also need 1.7x6mm self tapping round head screws, and 1.7x8mm of the same type.
  18. We're going to try to go all out next year to make up for it.
  19. No, I used Mr Color Super Metallic 206 Chrome Silver under Mr Color 47 gloss clear red. Then I used UV flat to flatten it out. It may be my camera and the light of the lamp. In natural light, it comes out much more red. Thanks. I thinned the heck out of the paints, then had to do a few coats and make sure they all came out uniform. Thanks. Much appreciated. I actually learned quite a bit about this process in doing it.
  20. So, I finally finished this project up, and I can't describe how much I love the finish. These pictures don't show how cool the color came out. It's a matte metallic finish, so although it has a metal finish, it can still show panel detail. Im not much of a photographer, so I couldn't get the color to show as well. Anyways, here she is. There's still some small corrections to make, but for the most part, I don't need to do anything major, so I'm happy about that. I'll most likely do that over the next day or so, but I was hoping to highlight the finish, which I can't do as well as it shows with the natural eye.
  21. Thanks all. I'm really liking the design and functionality of this mecha. Xigfrid, you did an amazing job with this.
  22. Obvious things haven't gotten to the point where we can have things like this, especially in CA, but after a lot of thought, we believe it is just safer to not promote an event that can potentially put people at risk. Also, the registration was reflecting a lot of people being worried as well, so with all that in mind, it was a painful, but right decision. At least we have a good jump on next year, and some great ideas to already move forward with. Dates for next year are being worked on now for next year, and that will be coming very soon.
  23. Thanks. I was going to go with light weathering with some of the scratches and paint removed, but it's not contrasting too much, so I may just make it look new.
  24. Finally finished. It took some time, but this is a fun kit to build. Thanks Xigfrid for the advise and the help on some things. I want to start on a Chetenne II next.
