    I can't help but wonder if they wouldn't have been better off making (multiple) one-piece flexible hands like for the bike riders.

    No, I think the listing is a glitch. I was able to login and even though it states 1 left in stock, when I add the item to my cart, my cart shows empty. I thought it was fishy that I hadn't received any nofifications from HLJ after I added the item to my wishlist last weekend.

    Aaaand right when I go to sign-in, I get an error message saying The account sign-in was incorrect or your account is disabled temporarily. Please wait and try again later. What the actual f***?!?

    Spidey's holding Lee's feet while he's doing killer sit-ups; get your mind out of the gutter!

    If anyone wants to part with their Sentinel Legioss, please shoot me a PM.

    Just a heads-up to everyone: I'm going to be re-issuing the King Crab (Inbit Gosu) in July, so the whole 1/48 Space Crab set will available again for a short time. Price will be $336 Canadian shipped to all Canadian/US locations. International orders may be directed to Brett over at Return 2 Kit Form.

    QC issues aside, I really like what Sentinel did with the Legioss. While I would have preferred it to be at least 15% larger and have more painted plastic (because in a few years, that nice white plastic will be quite yellow) it's still a great effort that gets extra points for ingenuity.

    Bad guy mecha don't usually sell well enough to justify production runs typical of even collector toys. The other problem with the Inbits is the notable disparity in size of the various types. In short, get used to garage kits or do without. Oh, and I'm re-issuing the Blueberry Crab on June 1st. Photo courtesy of derex3592

    I have a distributor for international orders now. You'll have to contact Brett over at @Return To Kit Form for that information.
  11. captain america
    Yup.

    For those who might have missed-out, this is currently being re-issued.

    The way the shoulder hinge is designed, the hinged ankle guards, and the way the LERX mates to the mid-fuselage indicates that they "borrowed" from my 1/32 Beast, and them butchered the design in other areas.

    Oh, and the kit is officially out! Simply PM if interested. Scale is 1/48, and actual size is 17.1cm in height.

    Hey all, Episode 42 of the Scale Model Podcast is out. If you want to understand why my new mecha design looks the way it does, you need to listen to this! https://scalemodelpodcast.com/podcast/scale-model-podcast-ep-42-john-moscato-part-duex/ I've also uploaded the instruction files for the new kit on Facebook, for those who want a look. There are too many plates to upload here (36) so I'll just leave you with the painting guide.

    No. The broken part needs to pivot while also having a hint of flexibility. CA glue has very poor resistance to torsional loads, so not only will it not work, but it'll also leave your parts caked with unsightly CA residue. Best bet would be to back-engineer the part and 3D print something in ABS.

    You may be thinking of Tsukuda.

    Has there been a stated size or scale of these new RG offerings?
  19. captain america
    In as much as Meptoys announced production of SC merchandise, I won't be poking the bear.
  20. captain america
    Very clever how you made the cannons removable!
  21. captain america
    Heads-up guys! I'll be re-issuing the Pinky and Baby Space Crabbs as part of Crabb Awareness Month; pre-orders go live next week. I'd upload a pic, but the site is malfunctioning ATM.
  22. captain america
    I hate being a voice of dissent, but that's just horrible. Whatever may have been said about the aborted MAAS offering, the previews they had shown were leaps and bounds ahead of this. When will people ever learn that quality is the cheapest and fastest path to success?
  23. captain america
    Well Fuke me! That Bartley looks excellent! Hopefully the new Sentinel versions are what they'll use for Genesis Breakers. Nicely modernized yet faithful to the spirit of the old designs.
  24. captain america
    Of course!

    IMHO, those were the nicest NGE EVA units. Shame that the pre-painted figures were so sloppy. I had the EVA-01 kit and was enamored with the proportions, but I loathe vinyl kits.
