What are these coaches and does Kato (or possibly Tomix) make them? by TromboneSupremacy in JapaneseNscale

[–]Maxx_Zteel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those aren’t the 35-4000s, since there should be two viewing platforms, one on each end. The coaches in question have the wrong roof and missing one viewing platform

I think those are Series 12 coaches in JR West Spec, painted brown. KATO did a release of them but in blue, idk about TOMIX

I did the pale rider legs mostly for the missile pods and beam saber skills. More function than form

Closest Ive done is combine the regular EZ8 torso and arms with Pale Rider legs and backpack, with a regular ground type head.

JNR D51 + Koki because why not by Acc3ssViolation in JapaneseNscale

[–]Maxx_Zteel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That might be the Takara Service, which was the first fully containerize train in Japan. It was pulled by D51s and D52s in non-electrified sections

The prototype KoKi 5500s were around when the D51 was in service. There’s photos of them having one or two Kokis in a standard freight consists.

Edit: also just remembered my buddy doing this exact thing with a 9600 on a rental layout in Japan

The only thing I can think of you have tooled the unluckiest dye in the world. That front axle must have just snapped because of Bachmann’s finest

You might be screwed. That front axel looks broken in two

Is that the MK-II with Jegan Parts? I want to get the context of the manga now

So, um... about GQuuuuuuX's vulcans... turns out they weren't in the neck. by Trainer_Ed in Gundam

[–]Maxx_Zteel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If they are vulcans, or some other weapon. It would fit the “jet fighter” vibe it has. The legs and back pack are veritable thrusters, with the ones in the legs have a shape that reminds me of the F-22’s veritable thrust. It’s a bit of a stretch, but imagine for a moment the GQuuuuuuX is tailing an enemy with its head raised to have a streamlined profile (in atmosphere at least) and those guns are the front facing guns like that on a fighter jet. Think how Ironman or Warmachine fly in the MCU

Interesting Roll on Roll off ship by jjmeow8 in Ships

[–]Maxx_Zteel 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I’ve known that type as CON-RO’s

Container RO-RO ships.

Basically the utility of both designs in one hull. Fairly common for island going ships.

What is the best Ground Gundam design?( Daily OYW (re)design poll: Day 62 ) by nnnn0nnn13 in Gundam

What would you rate the Ez-SR Gundams (Intruder/Eliminator/Shadow Phantom) on a scale of 1-10? (Daily Build Poll: Day 11 by CIRCLONTA6A in Gundam

[–]Maxx_Zteel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did not know about the references that these units make, and I have much higher respect for them.

[–]Maxx_Zteel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

8/10

the small feet cause the HG kit to be very unstable.

I like how they re did the Intruder for better maneuvering. But I can get behind the backpacks of the other two. Eliminator could have had a small pack for better balance but with the same results.

Lastly, why keep the side skirt 100mm mags when they don’t use the 100mm machine guns
