Its 2025.... where are you in the macross universe

Hopefully, I'm in one of those places no one ever talks about because the colony mission was quiet and uneventful, and found a peaceful planet far from any bullcrap. -
Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
JB0 replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
Zentradi don't have to worry about hereditary diseases, since there's no inheritance. Protoculture thought of everything! ... Well, everything except "how to dispose of an evil time machine", "how to dispose of a galaxy-wide brain asploder", "how to stop your clone army from waging tntal war across your empire", and "how to keep interdimensional space vampires from destroying your civilization". Minor details, though. They thought of all the important things! -
It's kinda weird how the proportions look perfectly fine to me with the 171, but it looks off with the 17. And it's not because I'm comparing it to the line art. Just looking at these 2 images side by side makes the 17 look awkward. Maybe it's because of the head design? Seeing a Frankenstein's monster head makes you expect that the rest of the body should be stocky?

The woman represents no. 506 super sylph in the intelligence gathering, Special Air Service of the FAF. Code name MINX. her open and alluring posture represents her names meaning. The tarps unit attached to her, is a reminder that despite her alluring curves she is a deadly threat, ever vigilant and ever watching. Sealed with a kiss for luck or the kiss of death. If anyone would like this as a decal i'll put it up

Okay don't be too harsh on my artwork. I know there is no official Super sylph MINX motivator on unit 506. But if there was and General Booker had a soft spot for this one as kind of the squad mascot. would he send over to System command and commission some art for the inside of the vertical stabilizers? it's a fan fiction what if. So this is what it means- Minx Share definition An alluring, cunning, or boldly flirtatious girl or young woman. Has unusual seductive powers such that she could commit acts that would otherwise be considered inappropriate, while still maintaining an air of class or poise.

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
TG Remix replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
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. Which serves to be ironic as when humans started to clone themselves to bolster their numbers to avoid extinction, they had to stop because they came across the issue of hereditary children's diseases popping up 2 decades after. It seems like DYRL made the cloning process a bit more uniform, as the trio seem to be a lot closer in size then they were in the TV series, not mentioning how Exsedol and Britai doesn't have as noticeable of a height disparity as well. -
If @guyxxed can provide a .stl file of the head, I can print it for you in high-resolution photopolymer resin.

Game of Thrones: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
Duke Togo replied to sh9000's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Love Dunk & Egg, but I have to wonder how they're going to deal with Egg's actor aging over multiple seasons if they have a lot of downtime between seasons. If they aren't releasing a season every two years, he's going to age out of the role. -
Hey Seto! First hi! It's been awhile, and second. Do you know how they compare to the Hi-Metal releases? Am tempted to buy the Silvie and Nex versions to complete my little Macross II bluray release shrine. The hi metal look nice, but am not sure as I have never bought one. Thanks again and good to see you!😁

Ordered my first HI-Metal R Figure. I have always wanted a Red Shoulder Scopedog and finally pulled the trigger. I also ordered a Chirio Cuvie 1/6 Statue. Both of them are on the way.

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
M'Kyuun replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
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.- 17722 replies

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

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.
