    I just checked my status on GGInfinite cause they got photos of all their Pale Riders that arrived and I made their first batch cut off.....yet, nothing. I personally think GG is a price gouging crap fest right now.

    Thought it was okay, not the same impact as the first film which is always a problem with sequels. I almost went by myself till I told my mother that James Spader was Ultron and she shot right up and got her purse she's a big fan of him since she watches Blacklist religiously. Bruce and Tony fight was good, funny moments and such. But I felt there were to many verbal shots of comedy between characters. Way to many.

    That's why I said the models weren't right. But you can't exactly make a screen accurate and functional model kit. Bandai and their 1/72 VF-1's proved that. Titanium Painted sinanju is done. I like it, the only downside was the reverse wash not panning out right so I hand painted all the gold trim. It did mostly come out very well in that regards. Sadly the light doesn't really catch the titanium look to it which is a bummer. In person the kit looks great. It's proudly in display and now I must ponder on my next project. Straight build or painted? hm hm hm.

    Actually you guys......I was right. In the animation the 0 Raiser does have docking ports that feed into the GN Drive. This image shows that the Particle tanks of the 0 Raiser are right in place with the GN Drives of the 00. And here we see the docking ports or pistons feeding with the Particle tank of the 0 Raiser and the 00. Now in space, I can see this working out since weight has no baring everything and anything in zero g weighs absolute zero. Now in gravity that's different and the connection of the docking ports would probably be to stressful and the ports could snap. Then again, scifi, gundam, it could work in it's own universe. As for the 00 model kits....I was wrong. It clips very closely to the GN Drives using snap in pegs giving the illusion. As a model kit, it has to be done, but in terms of design accuracy it's wrong. Like I said, I could of sworn I saw it in the animation and it bugged me just a bit. Atleast I found it while it nagged at me the last few days. Now as for that Vrabe, I enjoyed it, and I did a pretty nice build on mine. Silver and Gold my friend, carry some Silver and gold. Also if you don't wanna use the chrome green stickers, Titanium Silver and clear green amp it up. I'll be adding that when I got more free time. I spent last 2 days touching up my Titanium custom paint Sinanju. The reverse wash (dunno if I mentioned this) failed. Something with Testors paint just eats away at the gold even the clear coat and I was left with gray primer. I cleaned up what I could and with a fine tip brush and a tooth pick just tried to carefully go over the gold trim again on Acrylic Gold Leaf. I didn't do bad, my hand skills have really improved over the last year and I'm grateful for that indeed. Right now the remaining parts are being gloss coated and tomorrow I can finally finish this damn kit and move on!

    I'll tell ya one thing, he can do a better job at acting than Megan Fox with an arrow pointed at her chest.

    I don't see the problem. Hockey mask, check. Hockey stick? Check. Guy who loves outdoor activities and can parkour and well beloved actor? Check.

    Yep! Was wanting to wait till the series was over and binge watch it. Then with the whole pirate bay mess I realized I now have to wait until it's on Netflix in the fall.
  8. Hikuro
    ugh I haven't watched this series since season 201. T_T I'm boned

    I could of sworn they plug in thru some port of the GN drive. I know in the anime they do they illustrate it. Like I said don't got my MG but could of sworn. I DO KNOW that there are much less color separation bits on the RG than any of the previous kits.
  10. Hikuro
    I've been looking at images on completed promos for the 00 riser and I wish I could look back at the MG I built but it seems the RG is not correct. The risers wings are suppose to peg into the ports of the GN drives which fuels thru and spreads the particles like an exhaust port. I think the MG does it, but the RG does not.

    Only stands available for gunpla are the bandai action bases you see there. There IS another design that contains the neo zeon emblem but I think was aimed at the sinanju. Amuros nu gundam comes with a stand to display his funnels too. But there is no custom stand for his sadly.
  12. Hikuro
    Different angle and setting and all that crap....they got nothing. I got.....7 more days to see this film.
  13. Hikuro
    Made a little progress today. But there's been rain on and off so at least getting the titanium paint on the Sinanju has been a giant step forward.

    beginning of the article reflects pretty well with how I felt about the series. But near the end I feel like he just said he was a sore loser in some fashion like, we're all to shallow to understand his story and that when we're older and looking back we're gonna smack ourselves and go "okay this wasn't that bad back then." The action scenes just don't gel well with the story line at all......and having only 26 episodes just wasn't enough and this is also a problem with some of his film works. F91 didn't gel well as a movie but I think would of made a great series if it could have the 50 episode run typically seen. Same thing with Zeta Gundam New Translation......there were things in the films that just don't jive with me at all, rush edits, bad scene to scene transfers, some bad dialogue and a horrible audio track.

    Dunno how they'd pull that off without it being a reboot. Even then....

    Nicely done on his part. He doesn't get mad he doesn't throw a tantrum he just gets up, excuses himself and walks out.

    I think it's actually a glitch here cause it happens to me once in a while.Anyone order chars origin zaku? I just got notice from hlj that mine sent out last night. This should be very interesting of a build I really wanna see how different it will be compared to the original HGUC and RG versions in person.
  19. Hikuro
    by holding it the correct way!!!!!
  20. Hikuro
    Always like the deltas they're cute. I guess origins char zaku was released today. So if you all ordered in Japan you should be very very soon receiving notifications. I'm just waiting on hlj to get it done.
  21. Hikuro
    Should be any day, most likely closer to the end of the month just like the RG 00 Riser. I'm kinda twitching for it.
  22. Hikuro
    And it's selected kits so not all on their stock which is lame as hell.I decided to start the prep work on my titanium sinanju. Got frame parts gunmetaled and white parts pearled. That's at least a progress thing for today
  23. Hikuro
    Heads up b&n are having a 50% off sale in store only until 27th
  24. Hikuro
    After seeing this I'm grossly disappointed, but it's got affleck in it and super heroes just aren't his bag and I feel absolutely horrible for those involved.
  25. Hikuro
    There's no wrong way of doing one or the other. I still do clean builds with panel detailing but no weathering at all. Only reason I'm doing it in the thunderbolt is because it took such a huge beating from the constant use Io put on it. Actually if it were possible I'd do a final battle variant that looked as beat to crap as it did in the manga.
