• Pardon the dust while the boys rebuild the site.

    The board will be in a state of disarray as I get things sorted out, for a little while at least.

    The new incarnation is using Xenforo as the system software. It is much like what we are used to, with a few differences. I will see about making a FAQ to help point out the differences for the members.

     

    One IMPORTANT difference for all of us old timers is that the 'mail' system is replaced with what are called 'conversations'/

    There is no 'Inbox' or 'Out box' or 'Sent' folders anymore.

    Think of Conversations as private 'threads' or topics that don't exist in a forum, that you start with another member. NOTE: Conversations can include more than one member if you or someone else in the conversaion, likes.
    Takes a little getting used to but I am sure you all can get a hang of it.

     

    Only a slightly modified default default Xenforo style is available for now. Once the new SAG style is ready it will be available.

    All existing users should be able to login with their usernames and passwords once the site goes up.

     

    If anyone has difficulties logging in please contact me at sixthvanguard@gmail.com.

     

    Thank you for your support and patience. I know it has been a loooong road.

And the winners are .....

I don't believe it ! There are so many great figures in this contest. So many phenominal artists. I am totally blown away. Thank you ! Thank you to the vendors and folks who supplied the prizes. Special thanks again goes to all of you behind SAG and for having a great forum with a great bunch of guys and cool contests. I was just telling Dougmo that figures weren't my forte. Lots of stiff competition and congrats to all for participating. Lots of great bashes and inspiration. This is how its done and its only done on SAG.

Thanks to all the organizers and congratulations to all the participants.
Thanks for the recognition of my figure.
Great job Dennis and a very well deserved gold medal. The momnet I saw your tanker it was my favorite figure too.
It is amazing how you wer4e able to get so many garments to look natural on a figure. I have a feeling you maybe began with a very small nude to compensate for all the clothes!
Interesting how you used parts from probably all the 1/6 manufacturers!
Again great job! :!:
Que siga la fiesta!

Well, that was alot of fun!! A VERY BIG thank you to all the organizers and of course to all the participants. There was an amazing array of top notch bashes and I am hunbled with my third place. I don't know how the judges were able to even judge this one with the quality of the entrants.

Again, thank you to all, it was a BLAST!!!

The zipper pull?

Congrats to all. Outstanding work, one and all.

Geno. :-P
 
Drone, There isn't a zipper pull thats scale in 1/6 . BBI's is enormous compared to Dragons. Do I sense A little hostility?
 
Drone's onto something with the zipper pull. It's not the size that's the issue; it's the side. The zipper pull should be on the right side, not the left. I'm assuming that 1/6 manufacturers reversed this as a result of the majority of collectors who would be zipping up the jacket would (probably) be right-handed. I have the OJI version; and it also has the zipper on the wrong side. When the jacket is zipped-up, it's impossible to tell.

This "manufacturer's defect" takes nothing away from an excellent kitbash!!
