eugimon Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 It's not much lighter, the way the light is hitting it makes it look more apparent than it actually is. The upper body and arms are molded in brown plastic and the legs are painted brown so depending on how the light hits it, it's either noticeable or barely noticeable.
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 The differences between paint and plastic is acceptable in my books, unlike how Bandai molds their valks in two different types/colors of plastic and different shades of paint.
SchizophrenicMC Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Projecting to the canopy is cheating, you know... Everyone KNOWS it's an HMD!

Cent Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Head mounted display. As opposed to HUD. Since its in the helmet and all... And not on the canopy.

honkhet Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 (edited) hi guys! js did a tribute to michael blanc in my blog, do have a look http://robot-island.blogspot.com/ Edited July 16, 2009 by honkhet
honkhet Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 this is very cool! i'd like to get that CF 1J next month
eugimon Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Thanks, I really dig the CF paint scheme on the 1j. Glad to see you posting up the pics from your blog here as well!
Vi-RS Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 ya got me thinking... Warning.......Warning...... Hikaru Ichijoe, you are too close to me, you are too close to me.........
anime52k8 Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 you really should put the stickers on your destroids, they look so naked without them.
eugimon Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 but I'm too lazy to cut the excess flashing and then seal the stickers...
Raptor One Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Looks a bit light. I thought it was to be more chocolate like in color as in dark brown? Pretty sure that's just the 1J body with 1A head (Kakizaki probably). The official CF-1A is indeed supposed to be a darker brown and doesn't come out till August
anime52k8 Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 but I'm too lazy to cut the excess flashing and then seal the stickers... I'm just too lazy to seal mine. I actually rubbed off all the black from the 'm7' on the back and chest, looks better that way though.
Vi-RS Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 you really should put the stickers on your destroids, they look so naked without them. I think part of it is because the toy is too naked in bear plastic, every destroid should deserve some serious weathering effect on it, I didn't like mine as well when I first got them out of the box, too plain. The Olive Drab version is a must have, now only Tomahawk is on sale, sooner or later Defender will be on sale.

Vegas Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Well what have you been doing this past week then? You must have some pictures of something... just been busy with work
eugimon Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 (edited) you know what would have been nice? If those red sensor bars on the top of the head were made of translucent red plastic and then there was a light pipe to the sensor eye so you could actually see that detail.
