    I still refer mine matte thanks. I don't think there is debate on which looks more realistic, as most 1/72 models and diecast aren't glossy. They just look that way at the distance. Not that there is any issue preferring one over another of course.

    Dogfight is not about fancy maneuvers...it's about who has the higher initiative and more kinetic energy. The only advantage you have doing flips and cobras is to point your nose at the adversary with high instantaneous turn rates but even then your missile will not be in its optimum kinetic envelope if you launch it at 150mph. With current boresight helmets and all aspect seekers it's not really an advantage anymore. Even the ruskies themselves admitted that these are mainly for airshows and is not really an integral part of their WVR merge training for active frontline units(as opposed to test and stunt pilots).

    And promptly gets blown up by a missile with higher kinetic energy with a proximity fuse.

    Just got mine, really surprised by how long's the ventral EW fin. Think it would like better with super packs but that's many months to come argh.

    I wish all of frontier's gunpods are in the color. What's with the bloody purple.
  6. raptormesh
    Were you referring to the RVF?
  7. raptormesh
    Nice, but what's the Prometheus and Intrepid doing in there?

    Mine just arrived in the city, quite excited about it to be honest. Brb, gonna put a shrimp on the barbie(Protip: that's what aussies do when they're excited and there isn't any roos nearby to box).

    Maybe this time the aliens will turn humans into zombies, to capitalize on that zombie craze we have now. You can turn them back if you stick an iphone into their buttcrack. 505th: Kirin sucks, L2Japanesebeer. Try Yebisu or Suntory premium malts, and I'm not even getting into the craft beers.

    Well done charger, guess ill leave my weathered v2 19 in fighter mode as the gullet doesn't really bother me.
  11. raptormesh
    This is so bought. Think it matches the existing YF-21 rather well, my VF-19S did.

    Quite enjoyed the preview - thanks for posting that. Looking forward to the rest.

    Well as long as it's not a Will smith and his kid thing again. I kinda enjoy the first one, if only for the massive furballs.

    I'm this >____< close to buying a flight ticket just to visit the museum...

    Pretty sure I could tell the bots from the hoomans.
  16. raptormesh
    Actually hoping they pay zero some attention first. They are really due for a renewal.
  17. raptormesh
    Thank goodness else I thought the Excalibur has a third mouse mode.
  18. raptormesh
    I'm so in love with the 21's high speed mode.
  19. raptormesh
    I never had a 1/48 VF-1, were the flaps really that bad? I think they add to the display options.
  20. raptormesh
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=JrQ0qMRZ_1Q I needs it. Ah imagine just coasting the galaxy in one of these..
  21. raptormesh
    Yes flaps as well please. If they could do on 1/72 real world fighter models why not on a 1/60.
  22. raptormesh
    What's surprising about this? Isn't this pretty much the norm for bandai valks?
  23. raptormesh
    Please do not sully Max's name by comparing him to Michel.
  24. raptormesh
    Still like A best, then E perhaps.
  25. raptormesh
    I would rather they take on new designs rather than revisit the 21/11 as they are pretty decent now. Don't get me wrong i would be more than happy to pick up a few but they don't have infinite resources ya know.
