    I am watching Digimon Beatbreak. I am really starting to hate tomoro and gekkomon, I wish they would both stop whining so much. It is getting on my nerves.

    If anyone was curious, I found out the problem. After cutting away at the back of the head with an x-acto blade, I was able to pry the head apart with a thin spudger with good leverage. Anyways, here's what the inside of the head looks like. The culprit was excess flash on the washers. These washers rotate along with the head laser and then get jammed when they hit the bumpers. Thankfully the washers are easily removable and plastic, so filing them down with sandpaper is easy. Now that the excess flash has been filed down, I don't have to worry about snapping the head lasers when rotating them around. Hope this helps anyone who encounters the same problem Fugu FG-01 Jetfire. I don't normally buy bootlegs, but I don't see anyone ever making on official version of this toy since it'd be a licensing nightmare.

    Probably the best A-stance I can pull off with this little fig’. . . . especially since I lost one of the battroid feet and need to use the Gerwalk foot as a stand-in 😬:

    This dvd set has been sitting next to my desk the past year, I picked it up shortly after Thom Christopher (Hawk) passed last December and just started watching an episode here and there (watched 21 so far) which kinda makes this hit harder ... many fond memories watching his adventures with my brother.

    Man, I still remember him in Sidekicks. R.I.P. Mr. Gerard.

    Okay, here's goofy for ya: And an extra bonus:

    Taking it seriously made it far my goofy IMO, it's still the same absurdity, but they tried to make it edgy, realistic and cool in the same setting with the same characters, it made me laugh as much as the Van Damme film. I will never not laugh at Ryu staring down a giant villain then they start shooting off fire and lightning, you just can't escape the stupidity and over the top nature of the source. It's cool, and a fun movie, but goofy as hell. Attempting to adapt the source material seriously won't just make audiences take the absurdity of this franchise more seriously, it's just another avenue that leads to the franchise being goofy and over the top, trying to take it seriously is cringe. I think that the only decent balance was the YouTube Legacy and Assassin's First series, even then, it still fell into the trappings of trying to take an absurd series seriously. It looked real, they took the source more seriously and attempted to ground the characters, setting and fighting, but it was still dudes fighting and shooting multi colored fire balls at each other. Better to just lean into the chaos.

    You've already been too kind, my friend. Appreciate your support no matter what form it takes.

    If I can find it on Mandrake that would be ideal for sure

    And the hits just keep coming. Nvidia plans heavy cuts to GPU supply in early 2026 (Overclock3D.net) Samsung reportedly raises DDR5 RAM prices by 100% with 'no stock' left (Tom's Guide.com)

    Remember to also check Mandarake since they have great service and check everything before it's shipped! 👍🏻

    Good deal. Maybe I'll be able to get one as I was away from my computer during the first round. And as much as I am a die hard Anime Export fan because of their stellar service, that current price is just a bit out of reach in Tariffs are included.

    was holding out for a remaster/remake with all the recent ports but decided I couldn't wait.

    My thoughts and best wishes going to you and the Mrs, @pengbuzz. Not much I can do but offer my support from a distance. And send a little something to hopefully give you something to occupy your time while she recovers and hopefully comes home very soon. Thom

    I don't actually connect with GL itself as I never watched the anime, but when I first saw the toys it strongly reminded me of character Bishamon in Capcom's Darkstalker fighting game. The demon torso thing is kinda cool, and I bet Capcom used GL as the inspiration for it.
  26. Thom
    It's so far been one, and the first, trailer. Let's give it another one before crapping on it.

    Farewell Captain Rogers. May the next journey be as exiting as this has been.

    UPDATE: Checking in- had to rush my wife to the hospital last Thursday via 911/ ambulance; she has AFib (Atrial Fibrillation) and COVID; the latter is especially dangerous, as Chemo patients are very susceptible to infections due to the number they do on the immune system. Currently, she's in ICU while they try to knock down the COVID and address the AFib; to that end, I needed to isolate from her to protect her from anything else (have seen her a couple of times in full gown, gloves and gear). It's delayed her next Chemo treatment, as they cannot give it to her while she has an active infection. So basically, just sitting at home with nothing to do aside from call her when she's up to talking on the phone. Not expecting her out before Christmas... and the house feels utterly empty. Nothing for models; no materials or kits available to me (no good hobby places nearby within walking distance). Priorities are food, medicine and transportation (buses to/ from medical center). Thinking about masking taping the cat, but painting the critter would be hard as they probably won't like the tape. (I find this puzzling). Stay tuned...
