  1. I like this one too!
  2. It's a missed opportunity for Bandai if it doesn't.
  3. And it begins! First coat of Tamiya dark blue applied, I'll be using super fine sand paper in a few days to buff it out before a second coat. So far the Mr. SURFACER primer is worth every penny and the Tamiya as usual goes on really smooth. @peter I thought about using Tamiya putty to seal up some of those gaps and thought, nah I still want it to have that look and feel of the toy that it is. @MechTech Hope the weather works out for you so you can get in some painting! All of May it rained out here and most of last week too, nice to dry out for a bit. @derex3592 Looking good on the TITANIC, good choice on the red.
  4. I pre ordered 3 kits from HLJ last night. If they make the right & obvious choice to include a figure, I'll PO a few more.
  5. "Now we're talking!" 👍
  6. Well it's not Macross related, yet when it's time to preview ( a few months from now) I'll put a post up here so you all can see it.
  7. The story I'm working on is the opposite of all of the above. 🏴‍☠️
  8. Video of the old Hound 1/20 kit. Two different figures came with this one.
  9. Someone make a properly scaled figure (Hiro) and we'll be set. I've been wanting these since I saw the movie forever ago!
  10. I see I'm not the only who uses that line.
  11. You Star Trek fans are having a field day lately!! Already looking better considering how yellowed it was.
  12. Got the arms & part or the fuselage/cockpit areas done. Next will be the legs, the internal section with the landing gear will be the trickiest part to reassemble.
  13. ^^^ These are all of my thoughts when making a custom like this, since I'm a huge fighter mode fan this one will probably remain that way which is fine by me. I believe @Anasazi37 is still putting out some top quality decals, after my experience with my previous 1/72 VF-31A & RVF-19 kits, 5-6 coats of Tamiya clear and those decals are on there. First time I've veer done it properly and super stoked on the results.
  14. Whoops, that's an old school Yamato 1/48. She'd seen some serious yellowing from the previous owner, so ideal for a custom. Helmet on the workbench... Nice!!
  15. @derex3592 That Titanic is off to a great start, liking it!! Taking some baby steps with my yellowed VF-1J and one of these days it becoming a 1A or maybe keep it as a 1J Cavaliers. Just want to say that Mr. SURFACER is amazing! May not be Anime but a couple of customs WWII & Vietnam helmets on the old workbench as well.
  16. I just PO'd both sets from HLJ. So nice to just easily pre-order something.
  17. Nice! I had all of these except for Roy. I'd be on board for these.
  18. Your profile pic is from Project A-ko... Nice!!! Also, as for Cowboy Bebop, I'll give it a try... you never know, might actually be good.

    Hi-Metal R

    Love it! I have 2 Sylvie's & 2 of Nexx, sure wish Faerie Squad & White Ox (green stripe) were going to happen.
  20. Arad's isn't to shabby either.
