  1. Wow, that was.. rough... Compared to what we have as trailers today, that was just a mish-mash of scenes. Great movie. Bad trailer.
  2. I don't know which is more confounding. That someone is selling those for so much, or that one is already listed as sold?!
  3. That's a nice A-Wing! Seeing it mostly in flight, it looks odd up on any kind of gear.
  4. Avatar was a one-watch deal for me. It's an okay take on Pocahontas, but that's it. And I say that having never watched it in 3D. I find it too uncomfortable having the 3D glasses perched over my regular pair. Other than the 3D gimmick, there's not much IMHO to account for the money it raked in. I'll watch the sequel, at least once, but I really wish he was focusing on Alita. It's a far better story.
  5. Smoothing out the sides on the USS Saber.
  6. Been around for a few years, but I just saw this one. Stunning display!
  7. Took a trip to town today and bought the blu-ray. And yes, it was as much fun this time as the first six times!
  8. I imagine it would just melt off! I'm not fantasizing about that. Shut up!
  9. It is entirely possible that it's magically creating, like her dress during the Let It Go song. Meaning the dress really can fade out.
  10. Really looking forward to this. I did not see the first one in the theater, but I will be seeing this one.
  11. Haven't' checked HLJ, but here are the links for 1999.jp Tactical Pod Regult 1/72 https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10129343 Destroid Spartan 1/72 https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10129306 Anti-Air Destroid Defender 1/72 https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10129304 Tactical Pod Glaug 1/100 https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10034869 Destroid Monster 1/200 https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10129345
  12. Should have posted this yesterday... So, since Dec 2018, Mikey McBryan of Buffalo Airways fame has been shepherding the revival of a WWII Veteran, a DC-3 that flew during the D-Day landings. She hadn't flown for nearly three decades and was in pretty poor shape. Under the title of Plane Savers, he has been filming 156 episodes detailing the task of getting this old beauty back into the air on the 75th Anniversary of D-Day. Of course, happy to say they pulled it off! If you haven't seen them yet, and love the stories of these grand warriors being saved and put back into the air, then watch Plane Savers on youtube.
  13. So, it was a comedy, and this was the punch line..? I was thinking of getting DCU, mostly in order to watch Stargirl, but seeing how they handle this stuff, I might wait for the DVD...
  14. That looks awesome. The Robotech intro is playing in my head right now!
  15. I'm still hoping this isn't real. On one hand, there is a cool factor, but on the other it looks waaaay to Barbarella. Love her original armor and I hope they keep with it for most of the movie, but I wish they could have at least kept the pleated battle skirt rather than going with the leotard bottom.
  16. I'm liking the look of it. Looks like it will fit in real well with Gravity and Interstellar. I'll plunk some money down and see it in the theater.
  17. The whole model looks great, esp the water effect. The 'exhausts' from the packs on the otherhand, are the only things I don't like. Sorry. They look more like an explosion effect, rather than an effect depicting an exhaust, and also something I don't recall seeing in the anime. In my personal opinion, I think the model would look just as great without them. And thinking about what's going on in the dio, the Valkyrie is in more of a hover rather than trying to go as fast as possible, so I would assume that the superpacks would be throttled back in this instance.
  18. Lovely work. That is one cool looking Viper!
  19. You mean from the backpacks?
  20. Yeah, I preordered a couple of the Regults. Just wish the Tactical Pod was also 1/72 and not /100.
