  1. Past hour
  2. Is it Michael, or Michelle? been rewatching frontier lately and my old bootlegs were a bit confusing over spelling. They’d waffle back and forth. The Hulu subs spell it Michel and it sounds like it’s pronounced like Michelle. I know here in the States it’s extremely rare to be named Michelle and be male, but he does seem to have a French last name, so I wasn’t sure on which name it’s supposed to be.
  3. That's one thing that irks me in regards to Heppoko Samurai's post, no further explanations on why so and so doesn't work and there's no proper explanations on how to fix it. I get this is first impressions, but its like he's condoning that this version of the revival 27y is not up to snuff.
  4. That’s definitely one that’s probably true and just as funny as how Dave from Foo fighters gets a bus to do free concerts around certain overly religious protests. I like that some of these guys can find fun non violent ways of dealing with things. I think the real question though isn’t wether it happened with Ozzy, but if he knew it happened, like maybe he accidentally joined the march not realizing that he was protesting himself
  5. I'm stuck between the Scorched Xeno and the Big Chap Version 2, but the issue with the melting jaw with the first iteration of the Big chap has got me on the sidelines for now. Waiting to see further confirmation of the possible changes to solidify my decision.
  6. The Punisher, all super heroes, needs a v-shape. He's too bulky/rounded in the upper torso. That's throwing the whole look off.
  7. Yeah, Iceman looks far better than I expected, although I kinda wish it was a two pack with a non iced figure of him. I actually kinda like the head a lot on the Punisher. As far as the outfit, I think it needs some work. Looks good from the side view, but straight on a little weird. I think I’ll just hope the figure is popular enough that they do a second version down the line, kinda like how they did a few versions of Wolverine and Cyclops
  8. Looks like that Heppoko Samurai has not been reading in between the lines in the respective threads in regarding the yellowing of the various valks in its proper threads or just experienced it now.
  9. Depends where you order from. Any US distributor it will be $100.
  10. I just tracked down some of my Mospeada preorders and it looks like I somehow preordered 4 Treads. Jack Daniels must have inspired those purchases because sober 26662 def doesn’t need 4: i don’t have room enough to display even 1, but here we are. :-) Maybe I was protecting myself from unexpected cancellations from one or more distributors? Anyway, more to the point, one of the Treads was ordered from Nin Nin. They didn’t require any ID this time.
  11. That iceman looks like the no-brained design he always should have been. Looks good. Hope it’s not $100. uh the punisher…his silhouette is off. I know the belt is tricky but. Try harder. The skull looks like Mickey Mouse’s skull and the head is weirdly shaped. I say go back to the drawing board on that one
  12. Today
  13. I’m still contemplating if I should preorder this. After Rodimus got such raving reviews I want something cut from a similar cloth. I have no use for AMT Rodimus because I have the Kuro Kara Kuri one but I get the feeling Takaras build quality cannot compare to Flame Toys.
  14. Same re: prepayment. I *think* I ordered treads from Amazon Japan and fighters from Amazon US. I’ve honestly lost track of all of my preorders. Stuff just shows up on my doorstep unexpectedly.
  15. We don't know who became Michael's legal guardian after his sister passed in 2055. The most likely candidates to serve as Michael's legal guardians (or at least guarantors if he continues to live alone) are his friend Klan's parents. We don't know what his exact living conditions were, so it's hard to say how he would have lived after his sister's passing. There are (rare) circumstances under which a teenager can legally live alone in Japan, though these almost always require the consent of a parent or other legal guardian who serves as a signatory and guarantor for any contracts like apartment leases and such. IIRC, the most common such case is students from very remote rural areas being given permission to get a place closer to school... though staying with relatives or in a school dormitory is vastly more common. There are also very rare cases of minors living alone (with permission) either due to the child wanting more independence from very trusting parents or not getting along with their parents to the point that neither can stand to see the other, both of which are used in popular fiction far more commonly than they occur in reality. In Macross 7, Mylene Jenius is one such case of a minor (aged 14) living on her own with parental permission and support. Macross Frontier's Alto Saotome also started living alone at 16, renting an apartment in the Senzoku district of Island-1.
  16. Keep in mind, Threadripper IS NOT for the average consumer. If you need a Threadripper, then you are either using it for work or run serious computing tasks. Yes it can game but you are wasting money (or you have FU-monies) if it's just for gaming. You should be crunching through large datasets or training a bunch of AI models if you need Threadripper.
  17. Weird, my previous posting seems to have disappeared? In case anyone missed it, AMT Predaking pre-order will open in August. https://www.taghobby.com/archives/792414
  18. As annoying as it was, kinda glad Amazon Japan asked for payment upfront for the Tread. Didn’t have to worry about any changes in shipping prices or in the price itself in the interim.
  19. Iceman will be a nice addition to my Marvel vs Capcom collection.
  20. Iceman is better than Hasbro has ever tried but....eh.
  21. Destructions are ready to download! 08.HEIC 09.HEIC 11B.HEIC 12B.HEIC 13B.HEIC 14B.HEIC 15B.HEIC 16.HEIC 17.HEIC 18.HEIC 19.HEIC 20.HEIC 21.HEIC 22.HEIC 23.HEIC 24.HEIC 25.HEIC 26.HEIC
  22. First Look.
  23. One of my favorite stories about him is how he once joined a religious protest march against himself outside his concert venue. I don't know if it's true, but with Ozzy, it's plausible.
