    I kinda did the same. I had a bad feeling that it was gonna be one of those permanently shelved projects. one of those jokes where nobody was laughing. Hopefully this ends up just as fun or even better than the first one.

    That’s what it’s looking like. It’s gonna be weird if the go to live action movie still remains the Dolph Lundgren version. It’s such a low bar, but if they can’t clear that, it will definitely be a waste of time

    I can’t think of any active type incidents that went down that way. And they didn’t expect a chance she would speak, otherwise they wouldn’t have gone through the trouble or infiltrating papa Organa’s escape crew. I personally would think it extremely believable and far more realistic that would have happened. Her speech was a bit flimsy and there seemed to be a lack of evidence over what occurred. Not only that, but far fewer people were killed there than the squishening incident that happened not too far before this and I don’t think they’d have cared much. Then there’s here actions during her escape that would’ve realistically sawed people on her side to have changed their minds. There was a security member murdered in front of several witnesses(not saying she didn’t deserve to die), but also a limo driver in front of others. A smarter writing team would’ve found some way to get her to escape the situation without leaving any bodies behind, or at least to do it in a way to hide what had to be done. If they had done that, it would’ve made it far more reasonable to believe that other senators would’ve sided with her

    I expect a very silly He-Man film.

    Crazy that we got to see anything. What a joke that the lawsuit is.

    Keep in mind also that the Emperor is pretty arrogant, and isn't overly concerned at this point. He probably doesn't even consider any speeches by a single senator to have much to threaten him with. And even if she got away, life for her is over. Her political career is gone, her connections are going to largely disown her (save for those to the Rebellion), and friends and family may prefer to remain on Palpatine's good side rather than stick their necks out for Mon. At least, that's how I think the Emperor would feel right now, but I'd like to know your thoughts on what I said just now.

    The Imai kits do have a certain charm, and can actually be nice builds when some work is put into them:

    Update from MEP toys. According to the website the hope is produce a 1/48 scale Hovertank. To fund, there will be clearance sale on his old stock and then a kickstarter. https://www.meptoys.com/new-projects

    I can think of a few incidents where there were warnings or at least investigations afterwards revealed that there were at least hints of possible future trouble that were overlooked or not considered serious enough to investigate, but I think its going to be difficult to provide examples without violating commenting policy. And they were also not expecting Mothma to speak; Organa out rules-lawyered them at the last moment. Her speech was also fairly short once she laid out her background, which may be why they didn't shut it down in time. At the end of the day, though, sometimes drama just gotta drama. 😄

    @nightmareB4macross I need to hunt down some official art and see what’s missing and if I want to add anything. There isn’t a blaster so maybe I take that on somehow. @Big s They have some wonky parts which is totally manageable, but I agree they were ahead of their time for sure. I really like the scale and proportions of this Gerwalk. Going to be lots of masking/painting fun.

    Yes, it was originally supposed to be released in 2023, but because of that it's coming out now. In fact, I even questioned whether this was official on the channel I got it from
  19. Big s
    I’d heard it had a bunch of lawsuits to try and get things moving after all the live action stuff was completed
  20. Big s
    Still gotta say that Imai was way ahead of their time

    They learned A lesson. Prince Adam is in this, instead of just He-Man.
  22. nightmareB4macross
    Will this be a straight build and paint plan? Or will you be adding a few touches? Very cool.

    Test fitting the IMAI Gerwalk while finishing up the M.Lover Lieea. I don’t know why but I love these old kits soooo much. The detailing and fit is interesting I suppose, but they are so endearing. The price is right and it’s fun putting lipstick on a pig. Not sure if that’s the right expression?
  24. Big s
    I guess it’s another He Man in our world. I guess they didn’t learn their lesson
  25. Big s
    Maybe by underdeveloped countries, but I can’t think of a first world example

    Indeed, but not by a large enough force to conclusively lock down every single potential entrance and exit as we've seen in real world examples. As far as the Empire is concerned, it's peacetime. At this point in Star Wars history, the Rebel Alliance doesn't exist yet. The Empire has yet to encounter a Rebel movement that's large and well-organized enough to present a real military threat to its control of the galaxy. Up until now, they've only really encountered independent rebel cells of squad or at best platoon size that carry out nuisance attacks on lightly defended Imperial ships and bases. The game changes when Mon Mothma declares the founding of the Rebel Alliance after reaching Dantooine, but even then the Empire doesn't truly start taking the Rebellion seriously as a threat until the destruction of the first Death Star.
