They should have used it in Orguss instead . . .

Nice frame, great looking cel. Surprised that is 20 year old animation - the style of BM looks pretty modern . . .

Saw a new Cavalier got for 21,000 Really great valk - one of my favorites . . . https://www.rinkya.com/en/auction-186631155

Double-stick tape. They were dropping off in 3 minutes time. If I were to ever display it long term a better solution would be needed. ---- Toynami - why couldn't you add some simple plastic pins / pegs in the waist area of the Beta?

Packing up the Unit 1 last night it was clear the waist will need the fix. Reviewed the repair pdf - sheesh. Anyone do this fix? Can I send you mine? Need an authorized Yamato repair tech . . .

Toynami never looked so good. Big thanks to PerryCh for GIVING me - I say GIVING me - the CMs gun to make this shot possible. The Veritech missiles on the Beta's wings were left over from the first Robotech war ( couldn't resist ) . . .

Nope. I had Unit 2 already. When I saw the seller was from a suburb adjacent to mine I took a chance and contacted him. Asked him if he had a Unit 1 - he did and I snagged it. Picked it up locally. Whoever DID get that Unit 2 for $320 got a good deal IMO. --- Noticed above one of Unit 1's chest lights is sagging closed, must fix that . . .

Got a Unit 1 from the from guy selling that Unit 2. Had not listed it yet and I took a chance and pinged him. He lives one suburb over so I just picked it up. It had a white paint splotch on its chest near the badge and I was kind of put off by that - but when I raised the issue he GAVE me a completed command car! Nice. Think my 1/24 collecting is done. Was able to take the white paint off mostly - and I got some pics at sunrise today. Just another beautiful day in Cleveland, OH . . . A few of these pics look 'real size' - That looks like a giant Ingram leg to me . . . Got some very cool sun spot action - and this one sort of looks real to me too . . . My favorite from these. That is the ACTUAL Cleveland sky this morning, its not always snowing here . . .

Those are pretty cool customs. Think they might actually sell at that price since those toys are around 400 or 500 each anyway. Its only 2 dogs though - he's using the clean one only as a reference for all he's done with his: ---- Anyhoo - I was packing up my LRS TC last night and I kind of freaked out for a minute about the side chest vents. Thought I was missing a longer set that accommodates the side weapon attachments. Then I realized I had borrowed the longer vents from my Oddon Weapons set. Thought that the LRS came with both short and long vents - but it does not. Did not know there was a difference but it does follow the line art . . .

If it smells like Provolone - leave it alone. And I'm glad they left that sketch alone too, and refined our VF-1 into an icon...

Something about this thread makes me laugh when I see a new post . . .

To dig a bit more deeply, the cel IS the actual thing that created the fandom for everything else. They ARE the origin. Other Macross collectables are simply passing though history. " This, this IS history . . . "

GREAT Joe cel - someone should grab this! Would look awesome in a frame . . . https://www.rinkya.com/en/auction-r116676358

I'm not really a modeler either, and I won't have any time for this for a LONG time. But, I mean, this is a CAP custom made Inbit GOSU resin kit for pete's sake - ! - Anyone liking the idea at all should reach and get one - JUST IN CASE. Later you'll be kicking yourself for not going for it . . . -

In. Would really like it if the canopy opened and the cockpit area deployed down if you can pull it off. EXO needs to do some seated pilot figs for it too . . . -

Looks like they might have tried to photoshop what it WILL look like by putting these stripes around the parts. Is that supposed to be a glow effect from the 'cooling' parts? Is that in the anime? OR - it won't look like that - they are just trying to point out the parts included. Hard to tell from these pics. But why a web exclusive its its nothing new?? Must be something new. The did cut the cooler stand to save funds though...

I was outbid once at 100,000 yen for a Volks 1/8 Scopedog TC kit. Was like -- "What?!?!" -- and at the same time "Oh - Thank God, what was I thinking!?!" . . .

That 1/24th Unit 2 went at a very reasonable price - $310 - IMO. Like Votoms, if it were in Japan, it would have gone for at least double. ---- For Diecast - have you tried the Bandai SPEC line? They are VERY nice . . .
