    Thanks. There's no real gap to speak of, and the metal hinge is only vaguely seen on the inside edge of the wing:
  2. Tober
    They look great. What colors and paint brand did you use?
  3. Tober
    Those pics are a few weeks old, at least. I'm looking forward to MP Star Saber tho.

    I have the first release versions, which are nice. The metal finish just looks gaudy to me.

    Arcadia should be at Summer Wonderfest, which I think is in August.

    My definition of fit is that it will fit. No, it doesn't snap into position, but it isn't loose (unlike other YF-19 parts... ). The raised sections are there for a reason, as are the shoulder holes.

    That's some nice modeling Mr. Kurisama.

    The V.2 Super Parts will fit. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=39470&page=114#entry1110844

    WHAM have metal-finish versions of their Fighter 1 and Fighter 2 toys up for pre-order, if anyone cares for them.

    ^ I feel your pain even though I didn't read his second batch of spoilers. Even saying that whoever is still alive in book 5 means that their enemies probably aren't... I was reading the books after watching the corresponding season, but it seems they are now offsetting the events in the books to compensate the varying lengths of the books. Last I heard there are seven books planned and seven seasons with the possibility of a movie to finish it off. I like to discuss GoT, but it's hard to avoid spoilers.

    Me too. Let' start a cult!

    Good to know for those of us for whom it's difficult to find the spare two hours to listen to it all. Thanks for the pics and report from the crew! Okay.... How about how much the box art will/won't suck, and how big it will be..?

    Might want to tweet how to spell 'Phoenix' as well... Wonder if the blue in the background CAD image has been desaturated to reflect the final colors or if it's just this camera settings.

    Awesome work Capt'.

    HLJ, three transformations, all good.

    OMFG!!!! In the background... on the drawing pad... is that what I think it is...? YES!!! You use the same silver drawing pen as I do!!! Are you taking hints from Yacadia or just plain teasing with that Bioroid ortho?

    The VF-27 with Super Parts set didn't appear to sell very well, so at a guess we might see it later in the year as an exclusive release.

    If you PayPal is linked to a credit card then you have that extra protection, on top of PayPal's.If you are linked through direct deposit then you will need to open up a dispute through your bank. Amiami's 1400jpy reimbursement is pathetic, but to be expected. If your bank does side with you and force Amiami to refund you, you will of course be blacklisted.

    PatPal will only assist if you paid less than 45 days ago. There is no point in contacting your credit card company until you have heard back from Amiami. You will need to prove that Amiami is in violation of consumer laws before the CC will do anything. Your bank will request all communications with the vendor as well as all receipts and shipping notices etc - so don't throw away your EMS slips. You could try contacting parts@hlj.com even if you didn't order through them. Include your customer number etc (if you have one). They used to have a service that sent out replacement parts even if you didn't order through them, but they may have stopped that a while ago.
  21. Tober
    Obviously you should take it up with Amiami first - as the seller it is their responsibility. If the pics you are sending are too large then resize them or send links via Photobucket or similar. Tweeting Arcadia is pointless. And as a general rule, buy premium yoys from HLJ or Hobby Search - they will actually try to help you out. Anime Export will probably just ignore you until you charge back - just saying.
  22. Tober
    Yeah, although I haven't figured out what was stopping them modifying that piece so the intake lip was conformal in fighter mode.
  23. Tober
    Looks great. You should set up some proper render frames. 1920 x 1080
  24. Tober
    It's no coincidence, they fit well enough, just a bit awkward.
  25. Tober
    I half expect there is a way, but I couldn't figure it out. The Alto packs I tried were the wrong shape. Maybe some one else has some ideas before resorting to Shapeways... The wings are extended beyond their normal limit via the diecast swing-arm, and the Frontier packs are held in place by that swing-arm and sit on the sides as securely as the other super part pieces. They hold, but I wouldn't say they are secure.
