Ya it would be bizarre to skip F and only F, when they're doing E, which is the one they DID skip in 1/72. I'd love VF-31A but it means new parts so I'm not counting on it. The real thing is, I wonder if they have anything planned once VF-25 and VF-31 series are complete? Almost anything else will be a downstep in recognition and popularity compared to what they've already done. I guess they could do SV-262, but does anyone really want to buy a bunch of slight marking variations for those? The best option is VF-0 with lots of variants to do, but they may avoid it because of the Wave kits. My hope would be a VF-11 series and some one-offs like YF-30, but they may not be seen as profitable enough. Or, hear me out..... VF-2SS. 🥰

M'Kyuun replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Ironically, I have the old Robotech: Battlecry game for PS2, and I enjoyed playing that game, even if they kinda overwhelmed you with incoming fire at times. Don't even get me started on the damnable Cat's Eye escort mission. Grrrr! But I really loved the overall format and controlling your VF-1 was intuitive, even for a non-talented gamer like me. Moreover, they imparted different abilities to each mode, which made them all seem purposeful, especially GERWALK, which I've always decried as a mid-step in the transformation. I'd love a similarly executed Macross game covering every entry in the long-running saga with a reluctant partnership with HG to get SDF:M in there too for Western release.- 7094 replies

Legacy of Kain: Defiance remaster, another Metal Gear collection, new Silent Hill, new Castlevania, and a God of War Greek Trilogy remake (I guess they forgot that there were six Greek games😒). Not sure about Control Resonant; I loved Control, but very unsure about the shift from atmospheric third-person shooter to a DMC-style action game. Here's hoping Sony keeps supporting PC. I do want that GoW Trilogy, but I'm absolutely done with PlayStation hardware.- 7094 replies

Oh my, poor Astrotrain. he's only slightly better than the previous version. at least the locomotive looks much improved, but what's with all the nasty kibble along his flanks and the weird cowcatcher-ish extension under the nose in shuttle mode? When the G1 toy did it better, there's something fundamentally wrong. His bot mode, too, which looked great inn the previous release, looks like ass this time around, and still would look a kibbly mess with the chest panels folded down. C'mon Takara and Hasbro, Mech Fans Toys, a legends scale toy maker made this: Why can't you guys manage at least this at a leader scale budget? I don't think DNA can clean that mess up, either, at least not without some serious part replacements. I so do wish some of these third parties would start making CHUG/SS86 scaled stuff when the official toys are this bad. Disappointing, to say the least. Shockwave is a bit disappointing, too. FFS, why can't they just do a space ray gun?!- pretty sure nobody's gonna think that's a real gun being pointed at them. And if someone's dumb enough to point it at a cop or a gun-happy redneck in the dark, they kinda deserve to get plinked. Megatron's Walther is understandable, but Shockwave's groovy purple space gun should get an easy pass. If Hasbro's wondering why TF sales are declining, perhaps they should re-evaluate some of these things before deciding to release them. Out of all these, Skywarp will likely be my only purchase.- 18100 replies

Well, @sh9000 just beat me to it. Dang dance class. Kranix is fine, if you really want those minor characters. I had to compare side-by-side with Siege, Shockwave is retooled by barely. I'm not happy, he really needs to be bigger to scale with the new Megatron. No surprises with Skywarp, and I guess I already own Wheeljack and Sunstreaker because they're the same as the ones in the Target five-pack. I don't know how I feel about Astrotrain, to be honest. Train mode is a huge improvement, shuttle mode seems a little worse at the front, better at the back, still not great. The robot mode looks noticeably worse, but I'm thinking that the chest is mistransformed and those purple panels need to be folded down. Oh, and here's the Matrix I mentioned. No SS86 Unicron.- 18100 replies

I promise if they do a Studio Series Unicron it'll be smaller and cheaper than the Haslab. Anyway, the teaser was for the Matrix.- 18100 replies

Two points. #1 Just realized this is the second Marvel live action comic book hero that Nic Cage is starring as. First was Ghost Rider but this role seems more fitting. #2 If this series is good then it solidifies my opinion that PRIME has the best live action (THE BOYS) and animated comic book series (Invincible) on streaming.

I doubt they’re skipping, more like going back one forth a bit. Then again, Bandai does like to forget a team member. But seriously, they’re gonna milk these as much as possible. The real question is if we’re getting the cannon fodder 31 rather than one for the main team

Stuff happens in the latest episode to raise the stakes and brings back Paul Giamatti. Who I don't find to be the interesting enough of a villain. Star Fleet really went down the toilet if someone like his character is the big bad. The show is trying really hard in this episode to make you care for what happens to these characters, but don't I really care. A problem for shows that have finished making all the episodes for a season before they even air is that they get zero feedback of what the audience thinks. No chances for course correction if they aren't connecting to your characters. Episode also features more stupid gaps in logic. That ship sounds like a dangerous place for training exercise are we the audience supposed to be surprised that something bad happens? In the previous episode SAM in an angry drunk state had superhuman strength. Why didn't they reprogram SAM to fight this threat?
