  1. Neither do I. But unfortunately, severely underage girls are a continuous theme in Anime. So, either the anime market is aimed at people younger than we thought, or the creators are a bunch of pedophiles.
  2. Or, in keeping with the total gayness of the battroid mode, the monster could just bend over and grab it's ankles. Once in the bohica position, the cannons would be level once again.
  3. I wish I had taken pictures of the PG RX-78 Gundam I got in an Ebay auction last year. The thing was BROWN when I got it, and when I opened the box, the smell of permeated smoke nearly knocked me out. Luckily, smoke only causes external damage for the most part, I took all the armor off, and dunked them in a bucket full of Oxy clean & Water, and now it looks brand new.
  4. Yeah, we need more transformation videos... Ahh, the good ole days of MW
  5. Yup, for an ugly ass Bling Bling valk too. That Valk might as well have a big clock around its neck, and a ball cap on sidewayz.
  6. Amen... If anything at all, I want to see the Series Logo. Text just gets annoying.
  7. Hey Dobber, what's the packaging like? Standard Jewel Case type? Can you snap a pic of yours? Thanks!
  8. Actually, IIRC, Graham mentioned that the 1/60 Monster is still on. My guess for the 1/60th is that it will either never happen, or IF it does, I bet it will be a Dengeki Mail in Special like the Helmets and Shoulder Pads etc. It's already agreed upon that the thing is going to be spendy, I would say $300.00 is a very conservative estimate. So, I bet it turns out to be a Japan only exclusive if anything at all.
  9. WOW, that looks great! And FINALLY, some validation for me!. I spent the better part of 30 hours (yes, I kept track) cleaning, shaping, sanding, and re-scribing panel lines on the 21. The night before the Macross Panel at Otakon last year, I went to hot glue it together just to do a quick mock up and display it for the panel. At that point, I realized that most of the parts had no hope of fitting together accurately without even more MASSIVE alterations. I realized at that point that I was out of my league, and I gave up. And I thought I was getting so close!! It should be noted that the fit problems were not the result of the efforts of Jesse or MSLZ22's recasts. Rather, just the fact that resin kits, especially of this size and caliber, are for experts only. Sadly, I just lacked the skillz, and was tired of vacuuming up piles of resin dust and shavings every night after hours of ignoring my family. It makes me feel good that someone as awesome as Kurt recognized what a struggle it is to build one of these monsters.
  10. Personally, it's one of my fav episodes of Macross 7.
  11. 1/48 Two seater conversion kits!
  12. Yeah, some of the subs on the FX Mac 7 set were pretty bad. I couldn't decide if I was more annoyed or amused when, for several episodes in the first box set, they kept referring to "Planet Dance" as "PARRY STANCE" ! But overall, they are good, and I love the packaging, and the discs themselves. Definitely a good deal considering that we'll never see a US release. Please, do tell!. I'm a bit skeptical as to the vid quality if they are all on one DVD, but if the price is right, and the subs are good, I'll give it a shot.
  13. Ahh, cool, I didn't know FX did a version. I too have their M7 boot, so I'll go for that one.
  14. OK, I don't condone bootlegging, but hey, BW gave us no choice here. So, has anyone picked up all five eps of Zero in a set yet?. They're all over Ebay, but I'd like to get one that has some half decent subs etc. Thanks,
  15. I still see those 0083 ships in Kay Bee toys from time to time in the $5.00 bargain rack.
  16. She's a beaut!, but whenever I see a car like that, I just gotta quote.... Marcus Burnett: Hey man where-where-where's your cup holder? Mike Lowrey: I don't have one. Marcus Burnett: What the f- w'you mean you don't have one? Eighty thousand dollars for this car and you ain't got no damn cup holder? Mike Lowrey: It's $105,000 and this happens to be one of the fastest production cars on the planet. Zero to sixty in four seconds, sweetie. It's a limited edition. Marcus Burnett: You damn right it's limited. No cup holder, no back seat. Just a shiny dick with two chairs in it. I guess we the balls just draggin' the F along.
  17. For a minute there, I thought you were talking about the 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special..
  18. I was just about to say the same thing! Except that I was in the Army, so I never caught a ride from the Navy anywhere to go kill bad guys. The Army usually gets it's rides from the Air Force.
  19. Gotta say, I'm not really a fan of the scopedog, but THAT is really freaking cool!
  20. http://www.milkandcookies.com/links/17611/ Neat, but a testament to the fact that as Americans, we have WAY too much time to waste.
  21. UGH, can't they leave just one animated series actually ANIMATED? Besides, if Hollywood likes the artwork of Aeon Flux enough, then the next thing you know, we'll be seeing gayness abound in REIGN - The Motion Picture.
  22. Aaaah.... I for one am happy that I really don't like the Koenig Monster anyway. IF I were to buy one, it would never leave "gerwalk" mode since to me, that is the way a Monster SHOULD BE. I may snag one at some point, but will probably just wait for the 1/60 Monster.
  23. It is a question that until recently we thought had been answered. Miriya was always the Robotech version. Millia was always the official canon - Macross version. Then...... Yamato released the 1/48 Millia VF-1J, 1/60 Q-Rau, and CM Miria sets, and proudly printed MIRIA on the boxes! Confusion ensued. So, basically, it comes down to what Yellowlightman said, it's an R thing, we wouldn't understand.
