I don't know if people really mess with the character features that much. As for ship designs, they've released some new stuff. Like there's the Odyssey class that's officially designated the newest Enterprise as. And a new Akira style ship known as the Armitage class, and a Carrier of some kind that's suppose to be loaded with fighters. They're also allowing you to build your own star base system if you're apart of a fleet I guess. But I don't wanna join any ol' fleet unless it's a good one and it's so hard to figure that out.

Random thought, anyone interested in 3D DYRL? The most simplistic form I can do is the traditional Red/Blue overlay so all you'd need are glasses. However I think I will possess the software for full color spectrum, although I wont be able to view it on my side. The burner I have will play 3D, but my Laptop is not compatible for that. The program I'm going to get is called xilisoft if anyones heard of it. It'll allow me to rip the blu ray encode and convert it to any format I wish. Following that I'll be using adobe cs6 to subtitle the Zentran speach. I hadn't decided if I'll be subbing the Minmay songs, probably will but they wont be flashy. Suggestions?

Out of curiosity, what are the colors for the VF-1 Apollo Squad? I always saw it as some kind of a very light gray and indigo blue I think. But any inclination via maybe Tamiya paint or such?
-
They got back to you? Did you pay upfront? I sent them a message but I never got anything back : / feels like this is nothing more than a pipe dream to me.
-
Yep so mine doesn't lock up. It DID very briefly but it refuses to lock up in battroid mode.
-
Ya that little panel needs to tuck into the back side of the head to get that bloody thing into fighter mode. And watch out for those little flaps on the front chest. They popped out a hand ful of times while I messed with it.
-
Hm I'll try that as well only thing that clicked was the back side.
-
I've transformed mine a full set since this morning and I'm scratching my head if I'm doing things right for each mode. I feel the hand transformation is horribly flawed. I thought at first pushing in the upper arm/elbow made the wrists pop out and I was wrong! I practically had to pry them out on first go with a hobby knife. The gunmetal chest pieces you flip down in battroid mode seem to get in the way while transforming back to either gets all or fighter. And I hate the big gaping on the sides and above, it's worse than a vf1! I've had the left wing pivot point pop off 5 times, and the wings don't sit flush in fighter mode, and the soft rubber head turrents are bending so I may have to replace them. I dunno I think I was hoping for a bit more like what I got with the yf29, or maybe I'm to spoiled.
-
AHA! I got it figured out. Man, that's hard stuff....toughest transformation I've ever had to do in many years.
-
I gotta say, fighter mode is the best. But I'd sure like to be able to put it back into that mode. I can't get the damn thing to close. I must be screwing up. but illustrations really don't cut it.
-
Well sadly today I was fiberglassing and it started to collapse even though I did the insides first. Very sad day
-
Indeed. Doesn't give the impression this is real. I about laughed at the aerial drone in the start. But I pissed myself laughing at the new ED-209. Can't wait to see what they came up with for Robocop......or I mean "RC-2000"......serious.....it doesn't sound cool unless you put 2000? Doesn't anyone know in hollywood, you put an X in there to make it official?
-
She's in the episode credits as guest star so yes Olivia Wilde did appear in the latest episode. At least we got some good back story.
-
Sigh......I need a new one.
-
Okay so I now have a bluray burner and plan to get a ripping program next month. so I'm just about ready. But something still bugs me, Robotechpodcaster still has my video. Any advice? While the video footage itself isn't mine, the audio is. I worked on it, my creation and certaintly my voice is being used without permission.

I got an email from NY if no ones posted about it. They WILL be doing preorders but wont say when and how much just yet.
-
I'm in, where do I sign up? I need a helmet for a project I'm working on.
-
What gave you that indication from a resin prototype? It's not even completed yet. I may email NY later since I don't check this thread to often if I miss the news

Hm yes. Decade probably made me feel a little better about the direction the Heisei era of riders has been handled lately. I loved Kuuga, and Agito, Faiz (horrible ending), Kabuto (though weak in the last dozen episodes) and Decade. I think if anything using "pretty boys" to relate to the younger crowd is almost insulting to the franchise. I need a Kamen Rider series that's dark, mysterious, full of drama and suspense. One moment you think an episode is going to go one way and it flips and goes somewhere else leaving your jaw shattered like glass on the floor. I haven't seen that in a long time.
-
Mines in LA as of yesterday. I'm guessing that it wont be here till probably Monday or Tuesday.
-
Let sentai be a kids show, I'd like to see Kamen Rider turn back into a teenager's show. A little drama, and mystery like in the past.
-
I'm still waiting on something dark and kick ass esque which hasn't happened in nearly 7 years.
-
I'm working on the review, so I will have some beautiful pictures today. still can't believe I forked over the money for it XD I remember years ago looking at it contemplating how long it'd take me to save up the money to do it. Nope, just sold a few items to do it. Man what a month this has been.
-
Yes! I found that sweet spot so it's not nice and secure in attack mode. The 01 and 02 ARMD numbers fit perfectly, I think I need to take the left leg apart a bit so I can get the city background on there. I mean wow I'm SUPER tempted to paint the city, I really am. But the paint will be so expensive to do right now. I am glad though I didn't buy the assembled kit....I'd of been so upset at all the screws I gotta deal with.
