    Yeaaaaahhhhhh after just finishing all the accessories I gotta say it's one big ass floppy mess. I can't get this thing to stay standing most of the time, parts don't want to lock in place almost at all....fighter mode to me is the best option to display but when you turn to Battroid you really do notice how big that head truly is.....yep. I still got the strike parts to do, but I feel so not motivated now.

    Hope they make some improvements on it, it's pretty top heavy and looks pretty cheap even if it's a prototype. I'm pushing for the best though!

    I've been tempted on paying for a Quake wave on and off for a month, best to just set that urge a side for a good long while. I seem to of found release dates for MMC's predaking....sadly we're looking at some long dates. August 15th for Bovis, September 30th for Leo, I can't remember the other release dates but they were going Q4, so that's some time from now. I'm wondering myself what's going on with Function X project by Fansproject? It was december when they officially released CODE, Quadruple U and Smart Robin have been pushed back every month since April's projected date. I ended up contacting TFSource and telling them I wanted to cancel my prepaid and get something else that's coming in stock which might be MP-12 Lambor or my final Not stunticon piece with a little room to spare. Good news is 1 week to go before Hexatron is released!

    In DYRL, Hikaru eventually becomes Skull Leader after Max "disappears" and fights with Miriya as a Zentradi. So naturally Hikaru's valkyrie becomes 001.

    Well there's mine, it's 90% finished. I got some applications for the right leg I need to add, and the Gunpod and missiles. Think next week I will do the fast packs. All in all here are my impressions 1) Chara-figures need limbs glued...unusual tactic from Bandai. 2) LOTS of stickers, and some added details are missing unless you use the decals...that's rather odd. 3) Hands are awful! I wish there was a better pair they could give you that were like HG types not MG. 4) Not a bad first impression, it's miles ahead of the VF-25's, and light years ahead of their old 1/72 VF-1 kit. Eventually I'll have the other modes pictured.

    I've also owned one of those old Bandai 1/72's, infact I owned 3 of them and they all went to the trash eons ago due to how crappy they were. See, there's the odd thing, Bandai's chara-figures are usually 1 whole mold, not several pieces. That's why I'm scratching my head on their decision to do this not only on the pilot figure, but Minmay as well. Another thing that's irking me off now are the hands, they're stubborn and small as hell! They're very much like Yamato's design, but of course it's putting them together that's the bitch of it all. I can't even get them out of the arm compartment and I think it's cause the fore arm panel that seals them in is just to thick at the connection point to the fore arm side panels.

    1 thing so far really bugs me, which is odd for Bandai to make this move, you have to glue the pieces of your chara figures to complete them. And I didn't even put that together until it was to late and had to make repairs to the paint job. Either way, I think this was one of the better paint jobs I did on such a tiny little figure I've ever done. But after 5 hours, I've built most of the body and stickered and STILL feel like I got more to do.

    you DO know it comes with the markings you need to color it? Sticker and decal forms. Fair enough it does need some painting but VERY little from what I've been looking at parts wise. Infact, there's probably a lot less to paint on this VF-1 then there was on their 1/72 VF-25's from years back. I've got parts soaked and air drying before I start the gloss clear coat and start panel lining it.
  9. Hikuro
    I got mine today, I think off the bat it's a gorgeous looking kit. I want to do an panel wash on the kit but as been stated, clear coat could probably scrape and such right off it and that wouldn't be bueno.

    As it turns out, I just got charged for a full set with packs when I thought I had canceled them. Sadly had to ask my girlfriend for 60 bucks cause I didn't have the money to completely cover it. Wow. But hey, I'm sure this'll be a fun kit I mean k'mon, it's not a 150 dollar toy what can you expect?
  11. Hikuro
    Yeah I read that this evening and was shocked to see that. This was way out to left field for me. My dad loved watching sopranos.

    35mm is the standard in theaters, then Digital 3D and IMax 3D. At least, on my phone it says the option being 35mm.
  13. Hikuro
    From what I've read by the critics it's a lot of flash but no substance that makes it a Superman flick and not calling it superman. So for the time being I'm just seeing it on 35MM until I know I like it.
  14. Hikuro
    I'm enjoying the soundtrack for the most part.
  15. Hikuro
    Hm, sounds like more delays from MMC.....I guess that's to be expected. Just kind of tired on waiting for Hexatron if they're already shipping out the gray mold type so quickly. As for the Rex-cons, I'm not in any hurry over, I can't even afford them right now!
  16. Hikuro
    Hm, think I'll pass.
  17. Hikuro
    oh yeah very hip on that guy right there. He's on my preorder list, may have to push some OT so I can afford all my July crap 0_o

    See that's where I don't feel like that was his mother. I don't think outside of Susan we've ever met another family member so how could that work? This woman just shouted Ramona to me and made ton more sense.
  19. Hikuro
    She is? I thought she was that old woman in the End of Time movie?
  20. Hikuro
    I'll stick to MMC. TC now looks like the copy cat.....haha...I made a pun

    Received my minmay as well today. Beautiful sculpt for such a low price. She'll fit in well with my brown and white bunnies!

    Could still happen though. Either way, heard rumors that Damian Lewis is up for consideration, that would mean the Doctor could finally be Ginger! However I don't see the actor right now BEING the Doctor. There's also rumors going around of Tennant coming back. No idea how that would all play, but Paradox's do happen.
  23. Hikuro
    If it were not a PDF file, but something I could import on Pepakura, I could make these in a breeze with my cutter.
  24. Hikuro
    Well, 6.29.13. I'm in, What's the worst that'll happen? I don't like it? It's a valkyrie of course I'll like it!
  25. Hikuro
