    I'm still hoping they sell off Warner's video game division to help put some black ink on the balance sheet.

    If Devastator doesn't fit inside, it's out-of-scale garbage.

    Besides the AI was used in upscaling, not generative imaging. The only Macross product to date that has used any AI generative imaging was the clip of Angel Paints from Flashback that's on the 4K DYRL release and it's very obvious (and to be clear to those not aware, it's a separate clip, not in the DYRL movie)

    Now that it’s staring me in the face and widescreen, those thrusters can’t possibly thrust.

    @tekering hahaha. Yeah this dinosaur has its issues but nature finds a way. Any updates on the Bioroid?
  12. TangledThorns
    Watched SINNERS on HBO Max last night. Crazy that it received so many Oscar nominations, basically ripped off Dusk Till Dawn imho.

    Looks pretty shabby to me. Those seamlines are godawful, and you'll need to make major modifications just to get a decent pose out of that dinosaur. 🤨 Philistines! 😡

    This disturbs me as deeply as it did when I was a chlid. 🤨 It continues to keep me up at night.

    No, the canard Fulcrum was there in the original release as well.

    There's two possibilities that I can think of: 1) they reused existing modelling assets and mashed them onto the MiG-29 (aren't the canards and micro-missile launchers directly ripped from the Sv-51?) 2) the publicity at the time of the remaster's release stated that they used AI to 'enhance' the images. Could this be an example of an "AI hallucination" during that process? Or could Kawamori-san possibly have used the tool to add additional details to the footage?

    Recently I've been rewatching Zero with the gorgeous new remaster and found this little guy. It seems like a mig 29 with sv 51 canards and micro missile launchers. I've seen Zero quite a few times and it wasn't until now that I saw it, also I have not seen it mentioned on the forums or the official renders on the artbooks. Nothing spectacular, but I find it really odd they modeled it just for the final battle.

    Mafex Rogue has been released. According to one reviewer she is disappointing.

    Celebrated a personal win with an adult beverage. Flipped through eBay. Mistakes were made.

    Can you speak to the quality of the Super7 O-ring figures? How do they compare with the original GI Joe ARAH 3 3/4 figures? I'm a nostalgia(?) nerd and haven't given Super7 a chance.

    Looking forward to Hound, Hot Rod, Scourge, and Outback the most for the month of March.

    The machine head zeta gundam is a great alternative for the ver. Ka and possibly the metal build. Here is a compare myself and a friend recently did. The machine head comes in 2 versions, precolored and clear. If your going to paint, grab the clear one as the plastics is a bit closer to gunpla plastic than the slightly gasphon feeling precolored ones.

    Six, actually. In their combined mode.

    This is the part that has me convinced it will go their way.

    Unfortunately, no third parties that I'm aware of are really doing main line styled G1 figures. Romulus was a one-off by Newage, and while I think it's a really good figure and I laud them for making it, b/c Has/Tak decided to increase the scale of SS86 OP, Romulus earned more than its fair share of criticism, which I felt was unfair, and likely put Newage, and likely Magic Square in turn, off to continuing making figs to fit Legacy. I'd love to see any number of legends scaled figs upscaled, but after Romulus, I suspect all bets are off and neither company is going to feel that the effort is worth the potential blowback. This fandom eats its own and f##ks itself out of potential opportunities. There are expectations and then there are dreams; I think this qualifies as the latter. 😄 They'd have to make a new size class for that- like grand piano crate scale! edit: Was thinking about this, and since Titan is a moon of Jupiter, the largest size class could be "Jovian"class.

    TBF, triple changers are more difficult to design. There has to be some built-in forgiveness for a degree of concessions. However, when we have toys like Fans Toys Thomas, which is IMHO the peak G1 Astrotrain toy to date, or something much simpler but as equally well-accomplished as Mech Fans Toys' Iron Sky, two very different toys at opposing scales that both do exceptional credit to the character, one wonders that Takara, the guys that invented the original Astrotrain, not to mention brilliantly realizing the idea of taking realistic vehicles and turning them into robots, couldn't 40+ years later do much, much better than this when a third party legends TF maker already created an ideal toy years ago. Takara wouldn't have had to copy MFT's toy exactly, although MFT wouldn't have much legal recourse if they did, but if they chose to make something very similar while adding their own slight touches, we'd all be the better for it as fans and collectors.
