I got it. I'd like to be put into 'cryo for as long as it takes for this thread to pass into obscurity...

Is there any way to determine which 60g models carry the chip?

This guy's probably never even seen the '48. He'll wet his pants when he encounters it, lol...

Yamato vs Masterpiece? They're not even in the same league. Yamato's in the process of releasing a new 1/60 scale version of the VF-1 that features perfect transformation, so if I were you I'd wait for that come out. Actually, scratch that; to totally blow your mind and expectations away pick up a 1/48 scale VF-1J with fast-paks TOMORROW. You'll throw that Masterpiece into a wall...

I wouldn't do it for 1 minute. Ever see Vanilla Sky? I am Legend? How hellish do you think it would be if you went to sleep, woke up and then realized that everything and everyone you knew and loved, and the world you lived in was gone? I wouldn't give a damn about Japanese girls with big tits or advanced machinery. Every person has a finite amount of time on this planet and they should live it when they're supposed to...

I've got a good feeling about this one. After all, the new QC guy is BoB...

Crack the BSG code? Gay....

"Puts down '360 HD-DVD add-on..."

Thanks for the link. I happened upon that site but didn't scroll down far enough to see the section you pointed out. Well, I have to say that the final showdown between Desslock and Wildstar was a powerful, evocative scene, every bit as strong as I remember it from the '80s. This story really kicks in during the last 8 episodes or so...

Right. Gotcha...

It's a knock-off. The 'Strike boxes did not have "Super Hardware" printed on the side of them. They didn't, did they? I'm not gonna' dig mine out to check...

And this will be the last, last, LAST movie that Jet Li makes...

Ok, thanks for the clarification. I still think it's silly that they decided to respond to Teresa's call, only to decide that they needed to head back to Earth pronto and help fight the Comet Empire...

Thanks for the link to the HK sets. Not too crazy about the idea of buying into the HK stuff, but what's a man to do. As for the story, it just doesn't make sense to me: the Starforce and their hijacked ship bite and claw their way to Telezart just so Treleina can tell them something they already know. I don't know. Like I said, I'm hoping the uncut version can fill in the pieces...

I've spent the last decade or so, dreaming about the day I'd be able to watch Season 2 of Star Blazers, the Comet Empire. My own memories as well as the testimony of fans all over the world state that season 2 is the greatest of the Space Cruiser Yamato stories and timeline. So here I am watching it finally, and I'm completely underwhelmed. Hopefully, one of you guys can help me make sense of the story at the very least and keep me from throwing the box set into the streets. Ok, so Derek and the Starforce go out of their way to hijack the Argo, in the process destroying units of the Earth Defense Force, risk their lives for about half of the season just to get to Telezart and meet up with Treleina. When they meet with Treleina what happens? Nothing! She proceeds to tell Derek and the gang that the Comet Empire is about a month away from Earth. Great, it's not as if everyone in the universe didn't already know that-hell everyone knew that BEFORE the Argo even left Earth! They wasted half of a season on a pointless journey, from what I can tell. Now, I'm assuming that the hacked up US version of season 2 is responsible for this confusion, and I'm hoping that one of you is more familiar with the REAL story, if there even is one. Nostalgia? Meh...

I think I'm jealous. I might be able to buy one 10 years from now when they start to fall into the hands of the mullet legion...

Bingo. Besides, it's either keep her in the school girl outfit or put her in some ridiculous 80's-esque Super-Robot-Pilot outfit. Also, those crazy animators and their fans love under-aged girls in school girl outfits...

Don't bother with 'Spider 3-it's the type of movie that has you embarrassed for having even sat down to watch it. As for Bourne, I couldn't sit through it as I found it so boring. I'd explain why, but I'm afraid I'd fall asleep at the keyboard...

Why would the insurance be cheaper on the '08? By the way, post some 'pics please!

Lol. In any case, if your co-worker can't sell the car for a higher amount will you resume your offer with him?

Lol, Brokeback Air Force indeed...

Oh yeah, I forgot about that episode...

Honestly, I don't even remember season 3 as it was so long ago-long enough for me to forget it anyway. If anyone shares your feelings about season 3 I'd say it was because the show is starting to "jump the shark," as they say. I mean, they're at the point in the story where they're out in space, headed towards Earth and there really isn't much more that you can do with the story except, well, get to Earth. Anything else in between that arrival, if it even happens, will be just filler-recycled material at best...

That's exactly what I'm planning to do. I don't want to "re-invest" in the VF-1 but I need at least one '60 scale VF-1 to pose with its '60 scale 'Plus descendants. Finally, getting the 2-seaters will be the long-awaited bonus...
