House of the Dragon.....GoT Prequel series
505thAirborne replied to jvmacross's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I watched it Sunday night, I think I'll watch it again before having a full opinion. I'll say this, they spared no expense on the sets, props & costumes/clothing. Even though it's only the first episode these new characters don't pop out at you quite like in GoT yet I feel as the show goes on these characters will come into their own. The Dragons look awesome, again no expense spared on the CGI. -
Love it!! Can't decide which one I like better. By the way, a seller on Ebay 2 days ago had a Yamato 1/48 VF-1D w/custom Fast Packs made by Kurt... who here went for it?

I couldn't find a Robocop thread in the forums so hopefully it's ok to put this here. (If this has been posted before I'll have the Mods remove this) When YouTube has that ultra random selection for you.

@pengbuzz I thought about it but that one will be repainted as a Mac 7 VF-11C. Just arrived this morning, this is the other VF-11B I ordered, she's virtually paint & scratch issue free & no yellowing. Definitely needs the legs repaired and a new antenna. I found some other spare parts online so eventually this one will be good as new.
-
@MechTech I have Mr. Hobby primer & Tamiya white spray paint on the way! Those yellowed parts are doomed!!

This is one of two Yamato 1/72 VF-11's I just recently picked up, good & cheap too! (I'll post pics of the other one when it arrives) I forgot to take pictures of this one before I dis-assembled it so these are the pics the seller used & as you can see, she's sun bleached all over. With that in mind I'll be repainting this as a Mac 7 VF-11C, while this is the 2nd Release with improved hip joints, the metal bar that holds the arms & wings snapped/broke off, so I I'll restore this as either a Battroid or Fighter mode only... I'll flip a coin as to which way I'll keep it. Older Yamato's or not when this & the other 11B are done, I'll have a total of 6 VF-11's and I'm all good with that.

I did the same this weekend, Matt's reaction to Geddy & Alex showing up on stage was priceless. Matt clearly no idea what was about to happen, Trey is a true friend.

Nice score!!! Some day I hope I can find a CM's Max that doesn't cost a small fortune.

Definitely one of the better shows out there, I liked season 1, loving season 2... I have one more episode to watch (stretching it out). Very happy to hear it's getting a third season.
-
I can now say I that have a TV VF-1S w/fast packs in 1/48 scale & now in 1/60. Just need to find a Hikaru pilot figure for it to be officially completed.
-
Same here, I lucked out on a 1/48 TV set of Fast Packs for about $110.00 shipped. It's why I like Mandarake, their listings are up front & quite honest.

I've been wanting a set of these for a while now & for $88.00 shipped via DHL from Mandarake, I feel I did pretty good. P.S. For those of you still wondering if Mandarake is a legit vendor... Yes, yes they are and their packing is far better than most other shops.
-
With optional fast packs of course!
-
Nice! You now officially have the most complete collection of SDF-1's. Is she staying in the box or coming out for display?
-
Is it me or does the pilot for the Angel Bird seem to be more of an appropriate size? Meaning, this pilot doesn't look like tiny like the Hikaru & Max TV figures.
-
Time to dive back in, gets better with each episode.
-
Anyone else watching season 2?
-
You need to break them out and admire them.
-
5 Angel Birds... Nice! Will these be on display or stay safely in the boxes? I normally don't do TWE orders, yet I just ordered one from Genki, if you ordered from their store then must be pretty legit.
-
She's a bit over the top on Tampo yet one big reason & really one only that I'm getting this VF, is simply because I'm tired of NOT getting that particular or oddball Valk at Pre Order price, only to finally want it and have to pay 4x the asking price a year later. Yamato's Low Vis VF-1S, VF-11C, VF-X, Angel Birds and Virgin Road all come to mind.
-
I'm in for one, that's a good price!
