  1. Firefly had a lot of comedic moments, this series, doesn't appear to be that funny, though I heard that Taika Waititi is supposed to be the comic relief.
  2. I have one of these, never even opened. I don't even know where it is....should dig it out one of these days.
  3. That's an insane amount of Valks, holy. Need to get a decent camera, set up some epic hanger shots or something with that collection.
  4. Lol, fixing that would be well beyond my skill level. BTW, this has probably been discussed to death, but I was asleep at the wheel, but why Lando's version of the Falcon still look like it has patchwork paint? It's supposed to be the same ship, but newer, and in better shape, but I thought the paint work on it would just be better, and at least somewhat match what it looks like by the time Han gets it.
  5. Maybe they'll release an accessory pack for the accessories, ie, you'll have to buy the engine separately, lol!
  6. The voice didn't seem to match the face. I pictured that voice to go with someone who appeared a bit older. Yeah, I know, not her real body, but that 5 seconds took me right out of it. Not knocking the voice, but would have preferred her to appear older. Maybe I just prefer cougars.
  7. Re-posted from another thread. I was messing around and added some panel lines to a previously enjoyed Max. Some of the stickers were peeling and there was some minor discoloration but nothing catastrophic:
  8. Will be there in two weeks! What are the chances they will actually have anything for sale? ETA: $hit, I just checked there hours. I'm going to be there on a Monday morning, but they're not open until 12pm.....and it might be some sort of national holiday that weekend so who knows if their hours will be affected.
  9. Yeah. I saw those, nice Valk by the way. I noticed that on my VF-1S Hikaru the stickers didn't adhere very well either. I trimmed mine so there wasn't a lot of extra clear sticker showing, but they do stick out like a sore thumb and I wish they came tampo'd on. I would consider decals (might have some left-overs from my Hasegawa 1/48....if I ever get around to building it), but worry about them scraping off if I handled the Valk too much. BTW, does anyone here have all four 1/48s? Club M Resin Yamato Hasegawa Bandai DX I realize that the Strike kit for the Bandai isn't out yet, but I'm kind of surprised nobody has done a side-by-side comparison yet.
  10. My kid got this toy set a few years ago when he was two or so, and the thing it still isn't broken and he's 4 and change now. Not too bad, seems to have held up rather well. I know it's not a perfect replica, but it's not horrible considering it the price point. I threw some Tamiya panel detail onto it think it looks bit less toyish, but he can still beat on it without worrying about breaking a fragile model. Before panel lining. After. I may have gone a little overboard with the panel lining.
  11. Picked up this toy for my 4 year old, and I have to say, it looks pretty sharp. I thought the silver paint application for weathering affects was a little overdone. So I figured it couldn't make it any worse by adding some panel lining. I may have gotten a bit carried away.
  12. Bought this VF-1A Max a while ago, previously enjoyed, some of the stickers applied and now peeling. Anyway, the thing was cheap so I decided to experiment with some Tamiya panel lining. I did half first, and I'll have to go back and clean up some of the messy bits. The FAST packs didn't take the panel lining so well, but you can sort of see it. It bled a lot, so again, I'll have to go back and clean it up a bit.
  13. Yeah, gross. Well, the Chinese aren't exactly noobs when it comes to knock-offs. I guess I shouldn't be surprised companies like Kitz Concepts would pop up waiving the Robocrap banner.
  14. The size of this thing still boggles the mind. I don't live in big house or anything, but I can't imagine how much real estate these things hog up in smaller apartments, lol!
