    ASUS reportedly says RTX 5070 Ti is no longer being produced, RTX 5060 Ti 16GB to follow Looks like the 9070XT will be the this year's price-performance buy/mid-range king. 'Glad I picked up one before Christmas.

    Before I click on that, is it AI slop?

    “Hey Houquet-girl! Why don’t you back that Legioss up on this and hook up with me?” 🤪

    +1 I actually like the color scheme, especially the darker green, and I like the AWACS aspect. The lance makes little sense, and the canards are ridiculously too big, but I could live with them. I don't care for the aft wing beavertails- they just don't look good and add nothing to the other two modes. Moreover, while I dig forward swept wings, these seem like they're in the way in Soldier mode. It'd be cool if, like the Sentinel, they were on armatures that let them swing back a piece. For now, I'm skipping both releases, although the Omega appeals to me more at this point. I am curious to see what other variants they roll out in the future. I own neither an Iota nor a Zeta version of the Legioss, so perhaps I'll snap up one of those when they're available. While I'm in for a Pose+ Eta, which looks like it's also being geared towards playability, it's a huge toy with an equitable price tag and I think it'd be nice to have a smaller, less wallet-killing yet playable Legioss toy to mess about with. It's funny- we've been starved for Legioss toys for decades, and now suddenly we have three options for good, to really good versions of it. Got up the courage to transform my Sentinel Eta last night with the help of @jenius' guide. (Thank you!) Mine's a first edition, with all the issues thereof. I had some trouble trying to get the legs to slide fully forward into the chest cavity for fighter, but eventually I got it, barely. It was resistant. The shoulders are a PITA to snap into position- they just do not want to align or snap in very easily. I managed it, but not without a lot of finagling and a touch of cussing. Gotta admit, though, she's a beautiful bird once you've expended the labor of getting there. I'm usually a fan of realism when it comes to aircraft, hence Macross' appeal, but I've always loved the look of the Legioss- it's just a great sci-fi plane design. I'm so glad we have some good toy options now.

    Yeah! Well, the fine molds did it better, but that one is still unbuild in my basement. Loved the GWH one though. It felt rewarding to build it. And thanks - I tried to emulate the Macross Zero look onto this one. Edit: rinse and repeat …

    Looking forward to this.

    That's not Oshii's style; he's the filmmaker most likely to embrace the latest technological innovations. I'm sure he'd prefer it was live-action.

    I always liked the ending images from Outlaw Star. They had really nothing to do with the show, but they sorta reminded me a lot of 70’s and earlier sci fi concept art that kinda got the imagination rolling.just a few of the pics from the end of the show

    So apparently we are getting a new OVA.... The Gray Witch! (Die Graue Hexe) 🥶 Always love it when the Japanese use German names. 🤣 A new animation of "Armored Trooper Votoms," one of the representative works of the "Sunrise brand," will be produced to commemorate Sunrise's 50th anniversary and will be released in 2026. It is a powerful collaboration with director Mamoru Oshii, animation produced by Sunrise, and production cooperation by Production IG. Title: Armored Trooper Votoms : The Grey Witch Director: Mamoru Oshii Production: Sunrise Production Cooperation: Production IG Official website: https://votoms-gh.com Official X: https://x.com/votoms_gh Revealed as part of the celebrations of animation studio Sunrise's 50th anniversary, a new anime for the classic mecha series Armored Trooper VOTOMS was announced today, scheduled to release in 2026. Mamoru Oshii will direct the new anime, entitled Armored Trooper VOTOMS: Die Graue Hexe (translated as “The Gray Witch”), which features animation production by Sunrise with cooperation by Production I.G. An official websiteOpens in a new tab and a teaser video were published for the newly announced anime. No additional details about the new anime were revealed at the time of reporting. The original Armored Trooper VOTOMS is a “real robot” mecha series directed by Ryosuke Takahashi and animated by Sunrise which originally broadcast in Japan for 52 episodes from 1983 to 1984, inspiring numerous spin-offs and sequels over the years. Armored Trooper VOTOMS: Die Graue Hexe marks the first completely new work for Armored Trooper VOTOMS in 15 years. The original Armored Trooper VOTOMS series follows Chirico Cuvie, a young soldier who is betrayed by his comrades after he accidentally discovers a secret weapon during an unauthorized, top-secret mission, forcing him to become a fugitive during a period of intergalactic war. Looks interesting! 👍🏻 More Hi-Metal R Votoms....🤗

    Bandai is notorious for milking molds, I have no doubt this will be coming soon
  19. Big s
    Yeah, kinda wish they’d go back to old school animation instead of cg but I’ll wait to see more
  20. Big s
    Looks pretty cool.

    I thought these are more sensible size classes too but then I remember that Dreadwind and Darkwing needs additional parts and engineering to combine. So I would suspect that Hasbro will sell Voyager toys at a leader price (the same way they do with Deluxe sized combiner limbs). Additionally you have all the extra parts for the Powermaster gimmick (even if it is not spring loaded). For Overlord I would expect a Star Convoy sized Titan (maybe even smaller). G1 Overlord has a lot of functionality - like the base mode - to recreate that faithfully I think Hasbro would make it a Titan class to have extra budget available.

    https://www.votoms-gh.com/ Looking forward to it. Wonder if it will be another chapter in Chirico's life or someone different as main character this time? "Die Graue Hexe" is German and translates to "The Grey Witch".

    Oof, tough teaser going full video game cut scene.

    VOTOMS is coming back this year Director: Mamoru Oshii

    I wouldn't say no to any of that, though I might be ok if Overlord is a Commander and Buster & Hydra are Voyagers. Need to see his hands and feet to be sure, but I don't really see any difference from the initial. I have the initial release, plus a pair of Sweeps, so I think I'm good there. I plan to preorder, but I'm waiting for Pulse. Speaking of waiting, there has to be a Transformers Tuesday or something coming soon. The only mainline stuff I have preordered currently is Sideways and Onslaught, then I have a handful of exclusive-stuff preordered at Pulse. Swindle was revealed awhile ago. In past years Hasbro would start soliciting preorders for the next wave around the time the current wave was hitting retail, and you guys just got my last AOTP review for the wave. I'll be wrapping up Studio Series this week, too.
