  1. Past hour
  2. I just got a notification from BBTS that the Sentinel Tread and Legioss preorders are processing in the next couple business days. In addition, for what it is worth, it looks as if both are now listed as available for preorder again. Incase anyone is interested.
  3. Yes, I am really hoping he touches that old gold nugget he used to have.
  4. that looks sweet!
  5. Today
  6. As was mentioned, Sentinel compacts the snot out of the legs and feet for fighter mode. Toyrise’s is like most Legioss/Alpha toys in that the feet stick out well beyond the arm boosters.
  7. Awesome comparison pics. Thanks. Not measuring from zero is madness though. I assume you were balancing the ruler on the arm of the Legioss and had to center it. The Tomy looks 7.5 inches long by my read, and the Sentinel 7.8ish. But I think they're supposed to be longer...
  8. I also received an email about pre-order shipping soon for the Sentinel Riobot Tread. BBTS has them for pre-order on their site at this time for those that would like to pick one up. MB
  9. After much much delay and many months of patience, I finally received the email my Tread from BBTS is arriving. They normally have never taken this long to receive sentinel products but I’m happy that I was able to get one none the less
  10. Don't know how many units they produces in the first run but seems sold out in every shop. This turned out good if they didn't just preoduced a limited quantity.
  11. Same here, I really hope Takara-Tomy will go for it.
  12. if only Bandai will unscrew its head from its ass for a bit, so that we can officially have a Mirage armour release from them... https://twitter.com/itachi_neko/status/2040070447866564821 sample snap:
  13. Yeah I picked up some of the Vallejo putty. I'll try to fix the leaks this weekend. Should be an easy fix. Don't think I'll attempt any other fixes as I'll probably just make it look worse.
  14. The teaser image looks great. Probably one of the only replacement heroes that I actually like. That and Phantom, but his whole backstory has always been about a lineage of replacement, so not sure if that counts
  15. As far as these second season announcements, I’m surprised that Wonderman is getting a second season. The show was totally boring and other than me and my lady trying to power through it, don’t know anybody else that even bothered with the show. Even in the marvel shows comment section here, I only saw that one other person watched it. Must be really easy to secure those second seasons lately
  16. Eh, I’m enjoying the show well enough. It’s basically a Star Wars underworld story with characters that are not completely good or evil. Even the lead investigator falls into this with an estranged wife and his being an absentee dad to his son. We’ll see how the story and characters pan out. But there’s enough here to keep me interested.
  17. Teaser for Laser Powered He-man
  18. Hamil is also a voice actor and Filoni is a cartoon guy with lots of power in a world with very few production studios. Never trust the praises of a working actor.
  19. It’s so super subtle in fighter mode that I can’t see where the Kai and Optimus forms meet. Wow. 🫠
  20. Seems to be a bit of a pattern lately. Didn't The Acolyte initially pre-announce a second season and then walk that sh*t back after audiences laughed the show out of town? I'm not so sure. Starfleet Academy was absolute dogsh*t, but it at least made an effort to appeal to both die-hard Star Trek fans and casual viewers alike. Maul seems to be a creatively bankrupt exercise in pure fanservice that has no appeal to speak of outside the die-hard Star Wars fandom. The plot doesn't even make sense unless you've seen, and clearly remember, Maul's return and his extremely short-lived stint as a crime lord in a tertiary story arc in an a cartoon from over a decade ago. It's a pretty cringe-inducing in its own right given that the 51 year old co-president and chief creative officer of LucasFilm served up a story so thinly written it feels like it came from recording a ten year old playing with their action figures. Kurtzman's actually a pretty capable writer of action serials and mindless action movies... he was a writer on the likes of Transformers, Hercules: the Legendary Journies, Xena: Warrior Princess, Alias, the Hawaii Five-0 reboot, Sleepy Hollow, etc. He's just hopelessly out of his depth when he has to actually develop characters. Remember, the OT cast have historically described George as a terrible writer whose work needed a lot of polish to be remotely usable. What was it Harrison Ford said to him? "George, you can type this sh*t, but you sure can't say it!" Saying someone "knows George's (creative) sensibility" feels like a backhanded way of saying someone can't write for sh*t.
  21. 'Preciate the info. Seems a fairly straightforward toy to transform, although it does have some locks, like the crotch vent, that necessitate a certain order of operations so as not to break it. That said, hints like this are helpful.
  22. Mark Hamill giving Filoni some deserved love. 'He Knows George's Sensibility' — Luke Skywalker Actor Mark Hamill Gives New Star Wars Boss Dave Filoni the Thumbs Up https://www.ign.com/articles/he-knows-georges-sensibility-luke-skywalker-actor-mark-hamill-gives-new-star-wars-boss-dave-filoni-the-thumbs-up
  23. I hadn't even considered that possibility but now that you mention it, I'd love a version in Skywarp's theme.
  24. Hobby Japan Web has an interview with Koichi Takazawa "Wave" and their continuity of development of their 1/24 scale kits wich we should know soon what the next release should be.... The new kits are quite nice and detailed, But lack the paint application from the Bandai Hi-Metal R line but are also made for the modeller! But I think both lines are the best we can get at the moment in both toys and models! Maybe the golden years of Votom's? just hope they don't overdo it and people have no more interest when the marked is flooded.... But for now the releases from both Bandai & Wave have a high degree of quality! 🤗
  25. The nice thing is that it's water-based, as opposed to the Tamiya stuff, which is more lacquer solvent-based. You can just use a wet q-tip to wipe the excess down while its wet so there's no sanding of any extras. It's too bad they got the B-deck stripe colour wrong, I think I might re-paint that light grey and do a wash on the saucer edge sensor bands but otherwise it seems like a pretty nice representation (if I ever get mine and the seams aren't too bad) https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1CgLE81yPn/ https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EgrP6kLh2/
