    So while looking at the vendors at a nearby sci-fi con I found these three little ladies. Might take the second Sheryl with me to cheer for my knights on the battlefield.

    MB's batting average is meh. Haven't seen ep 20 but if most of his critiques are invalided that is a good sign that Franxx is heading up and not down as (per the video) ep 19 was a low point. Personally I found it akin to ep 19 of Delta when Berger gives a brief history lesson of the franchise and before Seto drops in, yes I know some/most of the stuff he was spewing was wrong. If we take his critiques on just ep 19, yeah he has a lot of valid points. The episode itself was really not needed, at all and opened a lot of plot holes.

    Primaris aren't too much of an issue for knights. Two main weapons shown on the above models, the avenger gatling cannon (12 shots S6, -2AP, 2dmg) and the Helverin autocannon (2d3 shots S7, -1AP, 3dmg) are very well suited for primaris. Also I've fought bobby G with knights (per codex) and he lasted a turn before he was thrown from the field. Seriously two fails against a 6dmg weapon and his out. On a side note one of our Tales group is doing Imperial Fist primaris, he hates my knights and they are only getting worse for him now that we have a proper codex. Soooo many good relics, praise the Omnissiah. And to keep on topic, it's a bit rough, but here's another WIP of the small knight.

    Honestly I have to re-watch the 90's LoGH soon, most likely after the season is done since it will be months before we see the season two movies. Give a good side by side for eps 5+ I will say that after listening to the book, LoGH is the most direct adaption I have seen to date. Like it seems that the script is just the novel with maybe a small tweak. Heck up until ep 7 it was running at a chapter per episode.

    Noticed it's been a while since we got a new post. So I pretty much finished my first full knight for House Jenius, I just need to do the house emblem. Also going to be working on another xenotech version of a new kit GW is releasing this weekend. Hope to have it done by friday night for a game this weekend.

    They might be going to a series pilot turned movie, see if any network is up for taking it up. That and/or Polygon's art style (Knights of Sidiona, BLAME!!, Godzilla: Planet of Monsters).

    Might it have been a stylistic choice? Not all animation has to be HD or life like.

    How long ago was that? It took a month for me to get in. The question is to get bots and your reply seems human enough. It might be that the admin just hasn't checked for new applicants recently.

    The Wisecrack one is more on the story structure issues then anything else. Actually it was them that got me through TLJ, their themes explained video gave me something to hope for. Otherwise I would have walked out during the bomber scene.

    That's the way to do it. For events like the current ticket based one what I usually suggest is to auto set with LUCK so it will pull your highest luck plates. Score isn't a big thing while farming rares. If your doing the three daily pulls plus the 10 pull when you get 500 crystals you'll end up with a few decent 4 star plates. This will help you farm more tickets (level doesn't matter, but the pattern seems to be one gurenteed rare per 25 luck). If you can I'd shoot for the emblem and all the event plates then sit back and relax.

    K2s0 was much better then L337 and a better personality. L337 is a perfect case-study for why droids need regular mind-wipes.

    I'm sure there is some interest in backstory for most of the original heroes. Just that from what I was seeing when Solo was annouced that was the biggest question, why? Personally I wasn't interested even before disney took over but that was because I liked that his adventures were things of rumor and clouded. I was more interested in his post-RoJ adventures in the EU but that's me. The movie wasn't bad, it was neat seeing the Kessel run and Lando was the best part. My only major complaint was L337, she was just grating, like near Jar-Jar levels of grating.

    Did a little digging after I had time to digest the film personally. Have to agree on a few points: 1) Too close to other major releases. I'm not even talking about it being less then 6 months after TLJ, Marvel releases about every six months and does fine. Speaking of, yeah releasing so close to IW and with DP2 moving up it was a nice cock block against Solo. 2) Bad press. Granted Rogue One was reported to have production issues, it didn't have nearly the amount of bad press Solo did with issues going back almost a year prior to release. 3) Meh reviews. I believe this was mentioned earlier, but the lack luster reviews of the film by critics didn't help with it's already lowering expectations. 4) Poorly timed release. Believe it or not, Memorial weekend has been a low point for summer movies going on for almost a decade now, combined with point 1 it just hit even harder. 5) Why Solo? Seriously, of all the characters to choose from, why Solo? There was little interest in his origins past what we got in the OT and that was fine. There is more buzz on getting a Obi-wan movie and that was before Solo was announced. All of these factors just caused it to flop (by Disney standards), hopefully they learn (doubtful) and we get a better movie later.

    Saw it over the weekend. It wasn't bad, but honestly it was as I figured, a straight to video release. I'm not interested in origin stories of the main SW cast, the original trilogy did that already anyway. Honestly unless they make a X-Wing/Rogue Squadron film (or series) I'm out after ep IX and that is just to finish the Skywalker saga.

    Not so much a toy purchase as a purchase for my toys. Got a pair of Detolf display cabinets so i can start collecting more Macross and Gundam.

    Having them re-issue the fleet boxes would be great. If you want some of the ships seems there was a line that did get re-issued recently. Follow the link to hlj and see the suggested and they pop up. From the looks they are ~9 inch resin models, though at $50 a shot it's anyone's call. Personally I like the redesigns of the Imperial ships and hope that the if we get models that they include clear canopies for the parts that seem to have them.
  17. Focslain
    I kind of want one now.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Focslain replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    Your ok, the bit of the VF-31 with the draken and the mirage 282 is from the movie, not the series.
  19. Focslain
    That's it! Next purchase I do is a display case. Bandai finally broke me. For frak sake..... *looks at Ikea website*

    Been a while since I last updated. I finished the mini-knight seen here munching on some xenos: And his bigger brother Here's more work on my next Imperial Knight of House Jenius I'm doing.

    Most of SDFM, yeah. We're like maybe half way through Frontier and Mac7 and 2/3 of Delta. Plus they did say they are looking in to getting some OVA support.

    I'm all for getting a strike/super pack valk, also adding Roy in general. Not sure if we are getting a new valk soon though, most of the focus seems to be on the costumes.

    As you play you'll get a lot of UC currency plus those SLive items pop up during events (I'm sitting on 500 and haven't bought any in three months). So while they seem limited they aren't rare. As for 0-G Love, it's a part of Memory lane which unlocks as you level, guess that means the site was out of date... sec. Just checked my own memory lane, if the pattern holds true, damn 0-G Love is rank 70. Question have you gotten Barsara and Mylene yet. By my count at 18 you shouldn't have them (they should be around rank 24). Also as you try for higher difficulties you'll need to speed up the game (I run at 8 doing mostly very hard). Try it on hard to get your rhythm, as for practice it's just in playing the game. Go for survival first, then super diva mode, then full combo. Don't worry if you mess up and if you need a break, take it. As you level you'll get more stamina to play for longer stretches but you regen at the same rate. (Currently at rank 72 with 74 stam). Rank EXP is earned at a rate of stam usage +1 x10, so completing a hard mode song gives 130 xp while a normal gives 90. Also when you level you get a full set of stamina Also when we get a ticket event these don't use stamina so can get you some extra plays for free xp. Higher scores will come from better plates and high combos. If you have any other questions just ask.

    @rdrunner Yup, thank you. I just needed the ranks of the song unlocks. From the looks it seems on the even number levels for the most part, Welcome to My fanclub Night being the exception, and capping so far at 30.

    Considering I just freed up funds from a con I'm not staying at... I might have to look into this and just do a slight mod to make it a captain uniform.
