  1. Past hour
  2. The og version was probably the last of the old school figures I ever owned
  3. Today
  4. Is the Night-Viper a kit bash? For such a cool design this one isn't that impressive.
  5. I still have all my Binaltech/Alternator figs. I didn't have a complete collection, but I had the majority of the main characters. Out of all of them, the Mazda RX8, Suburu Impreza, and Ford Mustang molds were, IMHO, the best, the Mazda being my favorite. In spite of liking it, I never did get the Shockwave version, and I do believe I had opportunities to pick it up. I was good with Jazz, so I didn't bother double dipping even though I did double dip on some of the other molds. The vast majority of my collection is packed away and I've not seen them in some time, but I remember their being some impressive toys for all the working features and details in their licensed car modes. The bot modes often suffered, however, from lackluster articulation and generally a fair bit of cumbersome kibble. Still, these things approached then MP levels of engineering and retailed for about $20 (for the all-plastic American Alternators) and about $50 IIRC, for the Japanese Binaltech versions which had a fair bit of die-cast, which gave them a heftier, more premium feel. Ah, the good old days when toys were reasonably priced and widely available, for the most part.
  6. Not only that, but an android communicating and making buddies is kinda a bit too soon. The next movie will be a buddy movie where androids aliens and predators are just on a road trip
  7. Villain Decay™, brought to you by the Borg.
  8. Hmm... I dunno, my hopes are not high for this one. After rewatching the first couple Predator movies, I feel like it's not a great idea to make a Predator the protagonist of the movie. IMO, what makes the Predators work as the sci-fi horror movie monsters they were/are is that they're inscrutable. They couldn't be communicated with or understood. They were just these aliens hunting people for sport because they could. Once you give them dialog and have them explain their culture and the context of their actions to the audience... they're just rubber forehead aliens like in Star Trek and there's no pivoting back to horror after that. Basically the same mistake Alien: Earth made by revealing you can absolutely just talk to Xenomorphs and control them with language.
  9. It has not been specifically addressed.... I updated/confirmed my address info as they requested...maybe (hopefully?) they will include the "Adam" figs with this phase of the Zentran figs for all the early adopters that did not "cut in line" via BBTS....lol...
  10. Any plans to get Yellow and his bike?
  11. Aww heck yeah! I believe Alternator Shockwave was my first Transformer as an adult. No longer was I too old for toy robots!
  12. Makes sense. Disease won't rip through an entire unit, and can't be attacked by a custom-engineered bioweapon that targets a specific genetic sequence. On the other hand, it results in soldiers with diverse heights and builds, complicating supply of equipment. But the protoculture seemed to have solved supply lines with their typical excess.
  13. Yesterday
  14. And still no word on the battlepod pilots for us in the States?
  15. I’ve always loved that design. I still have the hg in my ever expanding backlog, but having to do those seams on eight large identical parts was kinda the thing that kept me away. I do want to get to it one day though
  16. Not sure if shipments will go out to US Customers.....I hope so? Please fill in your shipping address KitzConcept Ltd.Creator Dear Kickstarter backers, please fill in your shipping address via the Kickstarter system so that we can prepare to ship your products.

  17. @derex3592 you are brave. Yeah I don’t think that’s in my wheelhouse. I’m down for the challenge of building old kits but let’s not get carried away. Hahaha. Hey, it’s going to look amazing in the end though. 👍
  18. My own version of the old lineart...
  19. I started My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero's today and I thought it was a good 1st episode.
