    Same! ... fellow old school BG fan here who sprang for the 3D cylon head packaging edition with lenticular sensor eye sticker!

    Bear McCreary's BSG music makes some GREAT driving music! Just sayin!

    If the wings from each variant are easily swapped, I will swap the "unorthodox" wings on the variants with more conventional wings from the initial purple/yellow release: I bought waaaaaay more purple/yellow ones than should be allowed for any one person, and it shouldn't be difficult to color match the paint.

    Thanks! Oh wow! It does, haha. Took a snapshot of the back case

    One minor correction: four seasons. But it was one hell of a show. Flawed characters that actually grew and changed over the years. Fun and memorable dogfights. Themes and stories that are even more relevant today. And yeah, it may not be a traditional orchestral sound, but Bear McCreary made some damn good themes for the series.

    Sweet! 👍 i thought the new Viper designs were an equally respectful homage. Again, I'm happy to validate your feelings, but you do understand the intention there, right? Like every other aspect of the show, the cinéma-vérité realism extended to the space battles, applying the same documentary-style camerawork we've seen on the nightly news since the Vietnam war. That's how real dogfights have to be shot -- panning and zooming to follow the action as it happens -- and applying that aesthetic to a science-fiction space opera was truly groundbreaking... ...if a little jarring to oldskool fans. 😝 As opposed to the 1978 technique of reusing the same six model shots in every single episode? 😛 The original series was just so compromised by technical limitations, budget cutbacks, broadcast standards and practices, and television executive oversight, it's a miracle that it lasted as long as it did... until it became so unwatchable ABC canned it for good in 1980. Ironically, NBC made the same mistake that same year, retooling Buck Rogers in the 25th Century for its second season, with results almost as disastrous. 🫣 NuBSG, on the other hand, was so successful it not only completed its entire five-season epic, it spun off several TV movies, a prequel series, and a web series... and regardless of whether it satisfied your personal expectations, you certainly can't deny the universal acclaim it's received. So say we all!

    So with all the wing variations they're doing, I wonder how that'll impact potential Tread connectivity? No skin in the game (yet) but I thought it a logical question.

    They still make merchandise for this trashy franchise 😅.

    The OG Line looks impressive but pricey. I am just waiting for the Seekers how they would turnout, Im hoping for a OG Soundwave, always wanted a SW in proper vehicle alt mode.

    This unexpected, whats next a Legioss with Jetfire color style.

    It would have been infinitely better if they had used the shaky cam and quick zoom-ins sparingly to emphasize very specific sequences in only a few episodes per season, to sell the dynamism and intense chaotic nature of certain engagements of high significance, instead of turning the techniques into overused gimmicks.

    Goshogun. But I remember watching some episodes of it in the 80's as Macron 1. It somehow stuck, especially the corny opening song, . Here's the much smaller gokin figure of it I got 18 years ago.

    Star Wars TVC Darth Vader Emperor's Wrath.

    Just curious, what toy line is this Predator from?

    I do find it amusing that they didn’t pack Elisa with a gun. I mean she is a police detective after all. Nice to see they got most of the mains out though.
  18. Mog
    Just curious, what mecha is this from?

    Awesome find!

    I'm not sure how long I'll continue collecting these HG lines or keep some of them in Gerwalk and Fighter modes. Some of the Battroid proportions are looking more like Blokees Transformers.

    Akuma is finally in stock at The Chosen Prime.

    Paul McCrane's included signature was a nice touch.

    lol only now I realise the implication of that name. Pretty naughty of Toyrise.

    For the most part, the visuals were great, but I hate shaky cam! Or the sudden, rapid zoom-in, as if I have telescopic vision. In comparison, that's not so bad, but just hold the dang camera steady!

    I'll still be getting SS TFTM Shockwave because I like it more than the Siege version. I wish the front cannon was removable though. As for cannon mode, I'm just going to flip spaceship mode upside down.
