Jenius has some good photos comparing vols 1-3 and it's clear 1 has brighter intakes, but I don't think I've ever seen a side-by-side to compare Vol 1 pre-1500 to post-1500, though. Can anyone confirm? As promised, here is the comparative picture, left after 3000, right before 3000, not really beautiful isn't it? Edited September 24, 2019 by varitechs Quote
tekering Posted September 24, 2019 Posted September 24, 2019 Looks like the first 1500 were the mistake, and the next 1500 were the apology. Quote

To be honest, I didn't know that they actually ever got around to putting out more than 3000 of them. I have one of the early numbers. Thanks for putting up the side-by-side. Quote
arbit Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 Great animation Pedro! Really brought back memories. How long does something like that take you to complete? Thanks for sharing. I am subscribed! Quote
Tober Posted September 26, 2019 Posted September 26, 2019 Meiccoms MEP have a scale poll on Facebook for their upcoming Invid Scout. 1/55 or 1/48. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=410673689590529&id=110599236264644 Quote

no3Ljm Posted September 26, 2019 Posted September 26, 2019 Not sure if this was already been discussed or mentioned. I received an email from Amazon Japan regarding Yellow's bike release. Estimated delivery is first week of November. Quote

mechaninac Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 The Inbit Scout is such a tiny mecha "in real life" that 1/48 would be better than 1/55, for no other reason than it would be slightly less fiddly and fragile, and it would look better next to even 1/55 scaled opponents. So, my vote goes to 1/48. Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 Voted 1/48, although my go to Iigaa Inbits are my Moscato ones. Quote

Awesome video, well done! Hope you make more! I like the recoil effects on the Inbit, don't recall seeing that in the anime, but I like it. One suggestion however: Maybe less recoil with the Legioss and it's gunpod. I always imagined that the gunpod would behave more like an MP-5SD rather than a 50bmg (scaled up) and the Legioss would have better recoil management. My two cents. Quote

A colleague mentioned that he must have greater retraction in the legioss gun, but ok they are different points of view. Thank you! Quote

You could add in the shell casings ejecting for something of a different effect, don't recall seeing that in Mospeada, though I have seen shells eject from a Valkyrie's gun pod. Anyway, just some suggestions, hope to see you do more awesome videos Quote

Don't think there's much recoil on something like that. Quote

I'd be inclined to think they borrowed from the design too. Quote

Don't think there's much recoil on something like that. Interesting. So a beam gun doesn't have rounds fed from a magazine....so the banana shaped mag is actually actually battery or something? Also agree that if it is an energy weapon, it would probably have no recoil, and no she'll casings to eject. Quote

The most I would have given it is mid 80's. Quote
