    Hundreds, not thousands. We don't have a firm size range, but the one branch fleet we have definite numbers for (Vrlitwhai's 67th branch fleet in the TV series) was implied to be on the large side for a branch fleet and consisted of 1,213 ships. Not that there's a huge amount of practical difference in being outnumbered hundreds to one as opposed to thousands to one in a stand-up fight. Indeed. Even in 2058, an armed confrontation with a branch fleet was Serious Business even for the largest and best-equipped emigrant fleets like Macross Frontier. The sort of emergency situation that results in a major mobilization of the New UN Forces and any supporting PMCs alongside them, as seen in Macross the Ride. The sort of affair that you dust off the Special Forces for. If we take Master File at its word (and a grain of salt is strongly encouraged) even the largest emigrant fleets are about 900 ships and a main fleet is the sort of thing where you're not just sending in the special forces... even a small main fleet of a few hundred thousand ships is a "get every fighter, every ship, and every reaction weapon that every planet and fleet in range can spare" sort of occasion. Like what the New UN Forces did in response to the main fleet that bombarded Spica III. Fewer than usual... those Logitech G815s hold up commendably well.

    If there was a Mount Rushmore for heavy metal Ozzy would definitely be on it. Dude was a legend.

    Rest in Peace, Ozzy. You were truly one of a kind, and the very best sort at that!

    RIP Ozzy.

    Sounds like they’ve had some issues, but this is going to some extremes. I’d never buy from them if they required that. Maybe try contacting them about the situation and explain why you and probably every customer they have wouldn’t feel comfortable doing that.

    there's this too. I got my 1/12 jazz inc version with far more detail, so I'm all good. https://mcfarlanetoysstore.com/drawing-board/

    I remember as a kid we didn’t have MTV because our family didn’t have the money for cable and the radio station (Pirate Radio 100.3 for those from So Cal back in the day) had announced he was gonna do an interview. I was really looking forward to it because I was curious about what he had to say. I’d never heard his speaking voice at the time, only his singing voice. Then I was just sitting in my room when the interviewer finally started and I was not prepared for the hilarity that ensued. It was like an episode of Lassie where the guy doing the interview would ask these important sounding questions and all you’d hear from Ozzy was mumble mumble mumble. The interviewer would respond saying stuff like “You heard it here first”. This kinda went on for a while and to this day , I always think back to that day and how I still have no idea what he was saying

    I was just watching some of his stuff. It was tough seeing him have to perform from a throne, but also joyous to hear him one last time. This one really hurts. I love Ozzy’s solo stuff and his classic Black Sabbath songs. Always on my play list on the drive to work. I think we all knew it was coming, but I guess I thought he’d have more time to enjoy his retirement

    RIP Ozzy. grew up watching him and his fam.

    I’m seriously in disbelief that you’re on a public forum talking trash about your fellow designers in a franchise you both work on. How can you have a job at all anymore as you proudly proclaim you “refused” to work on a sister show? How did Discovery hurt you exactly? I don’t love all of Disco’s designs, especially for the Klingon ships, but I like the Discovery itself. It only takes mild inspiration from McQuarrie. It has a great silhouette. Much better than either alternative you present. You didn’t fix anything. Since you’re criticizing others, let’s talk about your designs honestly. They’re not really original. Your design for the false federation ship is just the NX. Your Nebula class is exactly that. Your cargo ship is messy and its base is a Constellation. All your designs have saucer tops that match the JJ films, not SNW at all. Your pin striping belongs on Refit era ships. You don’t seem to know the show you agreed to work on at all and I can see why almost everything you’ve done has been relegated to the background.

    Yes, it's clear in the original Japanese text that he is talking about the old version being left in battroid pose the entire time and that's probably why the joints have weakened.

    Legit or not, there’s no way in the world I’d do that. Giving that information out to strangers on the internet, with no idea of how secure their data storage is or how long they will keep it for, is insane. That is serious identity theft waiting to happen.

    Pre-orders for AMT Predaking going up in August. That combined mode look winner and there is also some good articulation to be had. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/792414

    Been a while since I've been to this thread - how many keyboards have you gone through, Seto? 🙂

    I know it's just X translation. I wonder if he's saying that his older toy has weak joints because it's been on display for a while. I wish he'd clarify if the new version is well made or not.

    Ah man, this one hits hard. Another legend gone, RIP Mr. Osbourne.
  22. Tking22
    The Osbournes was hilarious, and thinking back how long ago it came out, it was kind of at the forefront for the coming reality TV renaissance. I loved that show, it felt like getting to grow up with the Osbournes to a degree, seeing this legend just living his life, constantly picking up little dog turds and getting subtitled every time he speaks, good times, RIP Oz.
  23. TangledThorns
    Besides being known for his music Ozzy was funny af for his reality and live performance shows. RIP
  24. Sildani
    He died as he lived. There will never be another like him.

    PUTAQUEPARIU.... Black Sabbath's last show was truly his last. Thank you for the iconic songs from my rock life.
  27. Tking22
    Holy crap this sucks, RIP to an absolute legend. Whether it was Sabbath or Ozzy solo, the man was a rock legend and brought me countless hours of joy with his music. Once again, RIP to a legend, he will be missed.

    Well I checked Nin-Nin's FAQ, and it seems legit... I suppose this order broached some kind of limit.
