No big loss. He's not movie-accurate anyway.

Holy crap...

No prob. Judging by all the responses, you have your work cut out for you.

Robotech: New Generation (if you haven't already watched it) Megazone 23 (consists of 3 OAVs) Gatchaman (consists of 3 OAVs) Super Robot Wars Evangelion

Good to see they're still standing by their product.

True. I've noticed that designers don't take advantage of the larger TFs' size. I'd like to see the same kind of clever engineering used in certain Deluxes...only taken to the next level. Seems that's expecting too much.

The original Garland has had the most trouble (crumbling shoulder joints). The Proto Garland from MZ part 2 has gotten alot of positive feedback.

Cool! That's the first time I've ever seen a pic of the Gakken Tread. I'm not thoroughly impressed, but I still want one.

Thundercats is a cartoon from the 80's. The pilot episode is fantastic...definitely worth a look. I don't mind that the aliens look like Thundercats, but from what I saw, they just don't look real. Time will tell if Cameron taking the title from M. Knight was worthwhile.

God I hope so. We need more Transformers with hip katanas.

Best of luck to you guys. If eugimon's 360 gets the RROD, then none of us are safe!

As I understand it, Arcee, Chromia, and a third motorcycle combine into one robot.

Hahaha! Is it a V.1 or a V.2 (HDMI)? I ask because V.2's seem to be less likely to fail.

I agree that Game Informer is a scam. But I'd actually bet the failure rate is even higher than they reported. Every person I know with a 360 has had it.

That's a thing of beauty.

EA may put out a few decent games, but the company is pure evil. Ever since the company started trying to torpedo every endeavor made by Sega (while putting out lesser games, even), I've seen EA for what it really is. An Envious A-hole.

Billy Cruddup as Zartan?!? Seems like the casting is waaaaay better on the spoof!

I don't blame you. I keep mine away from the TV on a stand out in the open, rather than putting it on one of the shelves in the stand.

Has anybody mentioned Microsoft's extremely high failure rate with its Xbox 360? The so-called "red ring of death" plagued the initial release of the 360. Every person I know with a 360 has had the RROD. The problem is caused by a certain type of solder used in the main board that reacts poorly over time to heat. Microsoft then modified the 360 to run cooler, rather than switching to a less troublesome solder. Guess what? Even with the newer 360's (identified by an HDMI port on the back) the red ring problem is slowly starting to crop up again. Hope everbody's still under warranty.

I was sorely disappointed with the one major flaw in Street Fighter 4. The replay value drops considerably with its multiplayer lobbies...which are limited to only 2 players. Even 3 player lobbies would be a vast improvement.

Haha! That's bound to end up in somebody's sig.

Which is which?

Does anybody know if there's any credibility to the rumor that the director quit after a bad test screening? I know DiBonaventura said that it actually tested really well, but he may have just been trying to put out the fire...with lies.

I'd say so. He's got 4 modes...most of them clever. Do you mean the '07 movie version? Because the same mold was used for the ROTF version. I have no idea. Maybe somebody else has the answer.

That sounds right to me. Also, anybody who was going to buy only one of the $200+ Beagle/Toynami armor (like me) most likely already bought Stick/Scott. So of course the Ray/Rand release was going to sell less. Had Fuke/Rook been the second release it would have sold much more, but it probably still wouldn't have outsold Stick/Scott. I think Beagle should've expected that difference in sales. They're clearly familiar with the characters and with what their demographic wants.
