Nah, I'll stick with the Wave version that doesn't explode when you look at it the wrong way.

OK, got mine today, and I'm very happy with it. Despite it's smallishness, it's uber detailed and the colors and paint job are superb! EDIT - OK, I just transformed this wee beastie for the first time, and all I can say is......WOW. They really thought this thing through. Everything locks together in storm attacker mode nice and tight, and it looks great! I really love finally having real ARMD platforms too. This is a keeper to be sure. It looks so good that I really don't care that it's not as big as the old Bandai version. Anything bigger would be too vulgar. Eat your heart out Yamato, if you can't make one half as cool as this one, DON'T TRY!

If this were a Yamato product, we'd all be screaming shenanigans by now...

I'm gonna go with....YES

You see the hat? I am Mrs Nesbitt!

Don't forget about the hi-tops, and a crooked baseball cap.

Next up will be the Urban Bling Bling edition.

Well, frak, I think the video just sold me too.

Video?

Now that would be awesome!

It does...and the reasons were in order... 1. Flaming. 2. Needless reporting of thread/posts. 3. Not responding to warning. IE - Flaming again 4. Telling a Mod to go F himself and declaring that he was "done with this place anyway" Plus, it's been proven that the guy was an arsehole on another forum where he got the boot as well. Sure, that was after the fact, but validation is validation. Not that I need any because in my opinion, aside from indirectly proving that the Macross has frakking KNEES, he was contributing not a damned thing, and bringing the thread down. Additionally, he was attacking US, not just myself, and the other mods, but US, OUR SITE, that we all know and love. He was attacking Macross in general, and sorry, but this definitely isn't the place for that. Could it be much more cut and dry?

That is SOOO going in my Sig line...

Is the whole thing die cast? Long term floptasticness is a worry for me. Ultimately, I'd be leaving it in cruiser mode anyway. Looking at the shot of it in cruiser mode, it's kinda raping my childhood a bit that you can see the big gap between the legs etc. I always got the impression from DYRL that it was a little more contiguous in cruiser mode. Ultimately, I shouldn't decry it completely on price point alone. I really just want to see one in person before dropping that kind of loot.

OK, here we go again... The KNEES weren't the issue. The issue was that he was clearly flame baiting. And for the record, he wasn't banned straight away. Read the posts, he was warned, he kept up, he was suspended for 14 days, he told me to go F myself and that he was "done with this place anyway" I gave him his wish, plain and simple. He's gone, it's over. So, it has an ass?

Well, to be 100% accurate, he told me to "f--k myself". In any case, yes, the knees were not the issue, clearly, it has knees, as you pointed out the first time you posted the screen cap. The issue was that he was being a douchebag, and insulting our beloved 25 year old cartoon. Nobody picks on Macross and lives! So, anyway, enough of that. Let's get back to talking about the tiny, ugly, overpriced toy.

And with this lil' nugget... [attachmentid=40936] He bought himself a one way ticket outta here. Resume topic please.

Y'know what...FRAK THIS. YES....the knees bend, be it animation error, or intentional. NO...the head does not turn. YES - You cannot keep your yap shut to save your own arse. Cry foul if you so desire, but you've just earned yourself 14 days to cool your heels.

OK, let me be perfectly clear here... STOP REPORTING THIS THREAD FOR FLAMING I strongly suggest that you stop posting this crap and stay on topic. Any further attacks on members here and/or how we choose to celebrate our fandom of Macross will result in you being banned. If you want to talk toys for toys sake then go elsewhere. In case you haven't figured it out, this is not the place.

There was gunplay and I missed it...

I for one thought it was a good episode. If for no other reason than we finally got to see some more of that military type stuff they have forgotten for the last umpteen. Vipers in atmo? = good. Looked fantastic though of course, it raises the whole argument that those things would be lawn darts in atmo, but hey, they look good. I honestly don't think they'll cylonize Starbuck. I think she'll appear as some sort of vision or evolved being or some crap that points the way to Earth. If that's the case, I'm cool with it. I was sick to death of her angsty, frakked in the head BS, and her character had reached a point where she either had to have an epiphany, or die. Hopefully, she will evolve a little, and when she does show up as an oracle or whatever, she's not chomping a cigar and talking smack. Flowy white robes and all that is what I want to see. Making Baltar a cylon makes sense only in the capacity that having multiples of him would finally allow him to love himself that much more, and be even more self centered.

Great googly moogly, look at the gaps in that SV-51. I certainly hope they fix those by the time it reaches the ABS stage...

If I were Hikaru, I'd have chosen Misa. If I were Roy, I'd have chosen Misa...... while she was doing Minmay And we'd all switch places when I ring the bell.

Any other time I would agree, but I Staff Otakon so I can't get out of it.

Damn! Mari will be there and perform....and MWCon falls on the same weekend as Otakon. CURSE YOU FATE!

Not a Valk but I just couldn't resist.... [attachmentid=40633]
