  1. It's a MG conversion off the ez-8 mainly shoulders, arms and thighs of that kit, rest are all resin parts.Clear coat was to hot sadly and melted a good chunk of the paint but from a distance you can't tell. I seriously wish the forum would stop turning it sideways, this is the only place that does that to me.
  2. A few of the guys in my gundam group are rather surprised as they own the 0079 bluray series and say the footage is just so much better visually than it ever was before in past releases. But our theory is because Bandai/Sunrise have yet to release an actual Bluray remaster of Zeta which has us raising red flags on the ZZ release coming up in a couple months. Seems they're really just trying to pump out as many of the shows as possible to make a quick buck here in the US versus actually putting in some effort. The opening and closing animation is probably the best out of the entire package thus far and again, that just bums me out cause it's the same quality you can see in "HD" on Youtube, exact same thing. The english dub is still just as boring and almost lack of emotion as I remember back in 05 when I got the limited edition box set for big bucks. But at least the audio "enhancements" they did to that version aren't nearly as jarring as watching the 0079 movie trilogy, I mean we get the japanese audio but completely remixed audio track for sound....I just hate that. Why can't they just leave that stuff alone? It's why I couldn't even bother buying the ADV DVD's of Macross.
  3. Just gonna leave this here, mmk? Mmmmk. Ugh, whatever not gonna fix it. Go hurt your necks.
  4. hmmm gonna need another coat of paint on it all, it's kind of dusty. But once I slap on 2nd coat of blues and grays i can seal it then everything should be just fine.
  5. Yes he did, AGAIN. It's really noticing when he won in other ceremonies for that category and then aced out like he usually is by someone else. His brother flipped out on Twitter then had to apologize. I kind of flipped out as I thought he deserved it and the look on his face was sheer disappointment.
  6. Guess it depends where you get your MG kits. Right now my 30 kit backlog are 90% MG and then 10% NG/HG. There's a guy who works in a hobby shop in my build club who gives us 10% discount on any GUNPLA kit, that's kind of contributed to my collection as of late.
  7. Haven't seen any news in regards to something past the HG and NG side. Besides the NG models have a frame already.
  8. Been sitting on it for 6 months, but finally working on my conversion kit from RX-78(G) to an RX-78-BD-1. Cleaned it as thoroughly as I could with simple green for a day, rinsed and dried for another day, and tested my tamiya acrylic primer on it which seemed to work out well. Sadly ran out of primer so I'll have to go get another can.
  9. I got my blu ray copy of Zeta Part 1 and was a bit disappointed....footage clean up wasn't as good as I would of liked for 50 bucks, and we again don't have the original opening and closing themes. At least the japanese audio remained intact without the 5.1 screw up audio like the English version has.
  10. yeah but that made my interest perk a bit then I remembered the first trailer and cringed again.
  11. Pretty good turn out for Oscar wins is all I can say so way to go for mad max property!
  12. I was pretty surprised they won the majority of the technical department categories. Also was it just me or were the sound guys getting bleeped out? Sometimes audio feeds get cut when I'm watching tv cause direct sucks in my area.
  13. Tomino is different. A number of the character he killed off are characters people found irritating and unlikable. My problem with this is that a number of characters had chances to die that could of left just as much of an impact without it being a god dammit moment. I'm not happy in the least they made this move when a member of his specific family was already lost.
  14. Think those might be spoilers there but yeah I called it from about half way thru the series it would go in that direction and earth 2 episode stabilized it more for me.As for LoT and Slade, I believe Slade is about a decade or so older than Oliver and did mention he had a son while on the island but of a different name I think.
  15. Saying it's worse than AGE is fairly harsh. But I do agree that IBO is not all its been hyped up to be. I wanna say that the series hit its downfall after the controversial episode of shooting the first Corp guys.
  16. Hans zimmer, cause his crap is on EVERYTHING
  17. That's Bandai for you. They won't do an origins type anime but will remarked out unicorn is cheaper animation and drawn out dialogue. IBO has been bad enough in just using Gundam as a title name and then teases us with 2-3 minutes of mobile suit battles.
  18. Was at a convention this weekend, hanging with my cosplay buddies at the 405th and while roaming the show I catch this baby at the corner of my eye and spent 30 minutes thinking about it. Do I want it? Should I pass on it? I mean, it's official, it's a replica of the real film prop, and it's wearable! My friends wife acted like that little voice in your head going noooooooo nooooo you don't need that. While he's going DUDE! BUY IT! BUY IT NOW! REGRET ABOUT IT LATER! I bought it. I now fully understand why they can't hit anything. Like 2 inches to see thru and it's fairly blurred.
  19. I feel pretty blessed though it wasn't 1979 to see ALIEN on the big screen. Dark horse was holding a screening of the original print close to Halloween and it was just fun. I forgot that there were a lot of deleted scenes and kept saying "hey wait where's the infamous hard slap to the face?!" Or the Xeno smacking jones' crate.
  20. Hm a tad on guard as none of those previous write jobs or movies I'm fond of, namely ironman 3. Could Shane pull off as a director? Maybe good chance. I just feel that the monster franchise of this like aliens is stale even if you throw more money and ideas into it, won't mean it's a good movie. Predators had a good idea but imo bad cheesy story. Kind of like ALIEN, I think it can still be good, it just needs the right stuff to make it happen again.
  21. My mother is getting into legends after I introduced her to the series a week ago. She seems to like Mick a lot but he's a distant 2nd to her thing for Merlin.
  22. I think my blue destiny is a g systems so it's pretty well thought out but needs tons of cleaning and prep work to get things working. I haven't gotten any further than that as the weather hasn't been good to do paint work and the brass rods are still sitting in my car.But none the less the kit will look pretty good when you're done.
