Doublepush Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Keep in mind I have two daughters, I didn't just happen to have a pink flowery guitar accessory lying around Quote
aaajin Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Now all it needs is a lovely pink hairbrush 😄 Quote
Doublepush Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 I have a picture on my old phone as well of the MG Nu Gundam Ver. Ka drinking a delicious looking frosty pink milkshake. My Little Pony toys can make hilarious accessories for mecha Quote
spanner Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Keep in mind I have two daughters, I didn't just happen to have a pink flowery guitar accessory lying around I prefer this guitar over the silly sound booster! Quote
mickyg Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 Still love this toy and all the posing possibilities. This one looks like a big, sharp, threatening X. Quote

mickyg Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 They are quite...substantial, aren't they? I think it's a tricky one to pose correctly, as it wants to tip over backwards. It's also a pain to photograph, too. Especially with a phone. Quote
Mommar Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 I've always felt like the 29, especially with the super parts, should fold over themselves in Battroid like the 27's wings do. Quote
mickyg Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 You don't like the "hang glider strapped to the back" look? Quote
spanner Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 What do y'all think about these: they are all good but I particularly like the 19 pose! Quote
Valkyrie Driver Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) Here's another 19 pose Falcon...PUNCH!!!! Edited March 30, 2015 by Valkyrie Driver Quote
spanner Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 You sure are enjoying them but don't over do it! those ball joints only get a certain amount of useful mileage before they go kaput! Quote
spanner Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Here's another: ok so while we are showing off some cool Alto poses I thought I'd join in! This is the best I can do with Alto. I don't particularly find him very interesting to pose funny enough.. Quote
Valkyrie Driver Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 You sure are enjoying them I sure am. but don't over do it! those ball joints only get a certain amount of useful mileage before they go kaput! That's what clear nail polish is for. Quote

I don't particularly find him very interesting to pose funny enough.. You are playing safe by not openning the low part of the gun! Quote
chyll2 Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 I pose it the same way (or everything is closed). I have problems with opening parts without anyway to lock or at least line them up properly/straight. Quote
spanner Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Yeah that lower section is a pain to keep aligned properly and I reckon the gun looks better with it closed anyways! @Valkyrie Driver.. I found using the clear nail polish a relatively limited solution.. it doesn't seem to be quite hard enough and wears out too quickly. Automotive 2K clear with a proper hardener is much better but not as accessible to many as others. Dries rock hard but u gotta be careful using it. Quote

I've used super glue before, and it's a difficult solution since you need to let it set before you go reassembling things. That Automotive 2K clear, is that a car polish? What might be some other alternatives to that? I've also used 2 part epoxy, though it has the same problems as super glue. Edited April 16, 2015 by Valkyrie Driver Quote

Yeah super glue can work but you gotta be careful using it. But it doesnt last very long. The 2k clear is the clear coat over your typical cars paint! It dries super hard and is far more wear resistant than acrylic based clears. Its just a little harder to get and trickier to mix in small amounts.. Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) So, haven't posted in this thread before, though about just putting it in the collection display thread, but I think this is a better fit. I tried my best to recreate this rather imposing Destroid Tomhawk stance, as it's one of my favorites. Also, destroid are awesome. I changed a few things; I like the missile bays being open, and I really like the look of the shoulder missiles beginning to open. I also swung the arm out a bit more for perspective from my couch Edited April 21, 2015 by Gakken85 Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Thanks bud. It's a testament to how great Yamato nailed proportions on these guys Quote
no3Ljm Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 That's cool. Never had those Destroids but I can say that they're worth the money, right? Btw, did Yamato release a Spartan as well? Quote
xrentonx Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 The Tommy is a sleeper hit with me. I didn't realize how cool it was until I bought an olive drab on hlj clearance. I do feel a little bad for not supporting the Destroid line though. Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) I think they are def. worth the money, though I never paid more than about $130 for any of mine. They really spice up a display and have great features. Pilots, switchable parts, diecast feet bits, and other cool gimmicks. Sadly they never got around to the phalanx or the Spartan, the Spartan being my biggest dream toy. The only real downside to them is that the waist swivel tends to be a bit loose but that's easy to fix, or ignore. They did 3 Tomhawks (Tan, Green, Weathered) 3 Defenders (Tan, Green, Weathered) And around that time they had money problems and cut the line. I think Jenius has mentioned they worked up model kits for the Phalanx. The green Defender is fairly rare. Edited April 20, 2015 by Gakken85 Quote
