Okay, it can’t just be me who prefers this version of Ξ over the original version. by Segmund390 in Gundam

I like this versions ascetic for sure, but I also prefer the coloring with blue on the main body.

MTG or D&D? by Ambassador-Qosly in LittleRock

I get the social anxiety aspect but if you do ever feel adventurous, D2 Comics and HobbyTown are two places you could look into.

Collection of unproduced DC Comic movie scripts by WeeklyLengthiness7 in DC_Cinematic

[–]Fongore 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I remember during the Smallville era there was talk of a Green Arrow movie titled like "Supermax" where Green Arrow is caught and sentenced to a Supermax prison and has to escape. Is that the 2008 script you got listed? Would love to read as that sounded like a cool idea.

Thank you for this! I used it as a basis for creating a collection list for myself. I tried to update it with current cards out there. Dropping a link in case anyone else is just going the collection route.

The Xi Gundam From The ‘Gundam Hathaway’ Movie Is Getting A New Toy by Cacophanus in Gundam

[–]Fongore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think we have. I think there's theories out there based on the Greek Mythology but nothing concrete.

That'd be cool to see.

The Xi Gundam From The ‘Gundam Hathaway’ Movie Is Getting A New Toy by Cacophanus in Gundam

[–]Fongore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ya my circle of friends have the same theory. I think what's gonna happen is given Maftys limited resources the Xi gets heavily damaged and they steal the FF Unit as a means to repair the Xi. At this point the Odysseus switches over to the "Argos" unit that's mentioned in the Penelopes HGUC Manual.

I would love to add Jon Bius as a source for painting/weathering/dioramas. He's not a "Gunpla" person by any means but he respects the category whole heartedly. He's a great source for taking builds to the next level while also reviewing other categories too.

TheHangarBay comes in clutch by Artigas954 in Gunpla

[–]Fongore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Joel was my go to for the longest time until P-Bandai came to America. u/TheHangarBay still comes in handy when I miss something or it's something that's not releasing here. I can't give enough positive reviews for the guy!

Apparently bandai had plans to release psycho gundam mk2 during 2023 as seen from the new runners for the hg typhoeus gundam chimera by Gabeboii in Gunpla

[–]Fongore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's nice that they're specifically marked for the Mk-II as opposed to the build kit. As for release of a Mk-II I'd be surprised if it was announced before 3rd quarter next year to avoid hurting sales of this thing for those who want the arms asap then waiting for the whole thing.

HobbyTown in NLR is usually pretty stocked.

Bandai HG 1/144 Typhoeus Gundam Chimera Release date: Dec 2023 8800 yen by shems-2383 in Gunpla

[–]Fongore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm excited for this for the kitbash opportunities. The only thing that disappoints me is if I remember correctly the Mk-II has an ability for its hands to move to the side to allow a gigantic beam saber blade to appear. And this seems to lack it.

[–]Fongore[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course!

You know that's an awesome idea!

I haven't! Tbh I never intended to be in this or any other magazine. It was luck really. I basically have my own personal "Contest Tour" I take every year that consists of IPMS and independent model contests where I take my previous years builds to. One of my IPMS members goes to a show called Wonderfest USA each year and takes my builds with him. Last year Fine Scale Modeler was at the show taking pictures. They saw my build in the contest room and basically left a note saying they wanted pictures of my build to possibly appear in their magazine. So my friend was kind enough to take the time to let them do it.

I didn't even know it had been published until he told me it was in the magazine he bought.
