  1. Wow, I wasn't aware that anyone considered the Mexicans "bad" since that little incident at the Alamo.
  2. THE COOLEST! Thanks!
  3. Sweet, thanks!! From that link I also found this place if anyone is interested. http://www.best1hobby.com/html/micro/micro.html
  4. With only two crappy hobby stores in my area, I can't find Microsol or Microset anywhere. One of them had microsol once, but I bought the only bottle and it is gone. Anywhere that can be ordered online?
  5. Well, now that you're ready, I'm sure Yamato will get right on it!.
  6. The Aliens stuff looks pretty cool too, but the Sulaco at 1/2400 will be a whopping 6 inches long, yay . Did anyone see the unpainted Spike Spiegel, and Trigun figs?
  7. COOL - do you have those in higher resolution? Some of them would be great desktop images.
  8. Well since three of the four people who give a crap about this have voted. I agree, it's a keeper. I'll let Paul know to go ahead with that one when I get home. Thanks d00ds.
  9. OK, here's a mock up provided by Paul of the case logo.
  10. Sorry, but the last terminator flick was ruined for me by that idiot kid that played John Conner. He plays a dumbass bumpkin in Carnivale on HBO, and plays pretty much the same character in John Connor. No more Terminator films for me, I will stick with 1 and 2.
  11. Well, when I was in Japan it was 1990-1992, and I indeed towered over everyone there. I'm not BS'ing when I say that I only met one person there in that time that was taller than I am at 5'11" and that dude was at least 6'4". But this was 14 years ago, so the generational thing may well apply.
  12. Apparently noone has seen the trailer for the new Jackie Chan flick "Around the World in 80 Days" I saw it in the theatre, and Arnold makes a cameo as Prince Hapi, some dude that wants to shanghai the chick they wind up traveling with. It's listed on IMDB. So, he's still making flicks, or this one must have already been filmed before he won the election.
  13. Patience grasshopper.... Look back a page or two, we have come a long way.
  14. OK , d00ds, here is the latest and greatest on the SDF keepcase.... I was able to acquire the image from Garoquel who designed it for Shawn. He very graciously sent it to both Paul and myself. Now it comes down to a vote..... The image is not layered so Paul indicated it would be tough to manipulate the existing "Macross - '84 Summer" text. But he wanted to know if we wanted it changed. DA and Blaine and I have been kicking it around and here are some suggestions. Macross (top) World - 04(Bottom) That way we are representin' as Blaine puts it, and showing the year of the case as well. (Editor's note - I think '04 should definitely be in there somewhere since it is the 20th anniversary of DYRL and all, and that this is the year we are having them made) OR Macross (top) 20 (left middle) 04 (right middle) World or World.Com (bottom) Remember, Paul said it would be difficult to manipulate the image so if anyone here thinks they can do it, LMK, and I can send you the high res original. I would rather not put any more designing stress on Paul since he is still agreeing to do the case for us despite the abyssmal number of orders we got versus what was indicated. Also, this logo would more than likely be used on the Mac Plus box that looks as though it is nearing completion as well.
  15. That kinda sucks, that's one of my favorite things about AC4 is that it totally reminds me of Anime, Gundam 0080 to be specific. On an anime related note, it's not listed on IMDB yet, but one of the guys talking in the beginning is Steven Jay Blum - AKA Spike Spiegel, I would bet money on it.
  16. AMEN. I was so disappointed when I used the A-10 for the first time, and the cannon had no difference from the onboard cannons on the other fighters in AC4. A Harrier would be SWEET as well!! But, ultimately, it would be even better if they had an unlockable VF-1 in there somewhere.

    I know this isn't from Series 2 but... ANYONE KNOW HOW TO MAKE MAO STAND UP????
  18. NICE!!! Glad to see you got the LED working. You've made a Q Rau fan out of me with that custom! EDIT - You should think of adding some more LED's inside the thruster nozzles.
  19. Tha's a bit pricy,.. I got mine off ebay for 18 bucks with S/H, you might want to be a bit more patient to get that DVDs, cause I found the HK verison on and off sometimes.. check within a week, I bet you will find one. Also, my box are different from that but I'm sure it's the HK verison. The quality are good, no complain. Hope this help, L, Yeah, that looks like alot, I have been searching off and on for weeks, and I have not been able to find it on Ebay, all I keep getting are the KITE hits...
  20. I decided not to put this in the Toys section since most of our members undoubtedly purchase more than just Macross stuff. I for one only like the big stuff, as usually (but not always) it has the best detailing, and the most bells and whistles etc. What about you guys/gals?
  21. I do an ebay search for Megazone 23 DVD, and all I get are hits for KITE. I search online, and all I find are RightStuf pre-orders for the upcoming ADV release. Seems ADV must really be cracking down on the boots, because this time last year, they were everywhere. I'm looking for the HK version that had all three movies in a two disc set. There was one with this hideous bright yellow cover that was supposedly the best one to get. I did find this one, anyone know of it's quality? http://www.animetoysonline.com/index.cfm?f...product_id=1811
  22. I will definitely be getting that Priss!! Let's hope they do the rest of the Knight Sabres as well!.

    I didn't actually LOOK, but when I was putting Sara on her base, you can see up her skirt, and I think she's going commando. Makes sense considering the back ass wards tribal culture she's from and all... Any Sara fanboys out there that can confirm this? It was a pain in the ass to get her onto her base, so I'm not taking her off now that she's on!

    Is there any way to tell what you will get if you buy an entire box? I got a set from TMP yesterday, and it contains 10, so, that should be one each of the regular, and clear hair figs correct? Or since there are a total of 6 figs if you include the mystery item, are the rest at total random? EDIT - and Melissas, I agree with the Misa repaint. Her Skirt is fine to me because on mine it is whiter than her jacket which is a full shade darker for some reason. If I had the skills, I would repaint her, but I do not, so I guess she'll stay as is. I thought the same of the Focker figure before I took a look at it, and noticed that his flight suit is darker than the armor parts, but that makes sense. So far, I have Misa, Focker, and Sara, and I have to say Focker is my favorite of them all.
  25. I suspect that the flight helmets have a built in 'Perm' function. They must be like those big beehive hairdryers that they have in salons these days....
