    I thought the movies were just movie versions of the series... Such as DYRL was to the original series. They had such different endings, with the movie version going along the lines of Macross Zero, where the hero just disappears. Whereas in the series, Alto was last scene flying through the skies rather than disappearing into the aether and going who knows where. Not the ending I liked by the way and is thus - except for the squadron of Macross Quarters at the end - forgotten... Personally, I think if there should be some crossover characters, it should be the second string. I'd like to see Klan again, and Luca and Nananse and especially Ozma and Kathy! Even as just little spots just to see how they're doing. Perhaps to find some room away from Michael's memory, Klan takes a new assignment with Macross Delta! Maybe she'll be the main character! Please Kawamori!!

    Love the Widow. Real nice work on that. I have two of the GWH P-61s in the stash, just waiting to go. One will be stock, the other will use Lone Star's conversion to an F-15 Reporter.

    That's a great looking Yamato! Makes me want to break out my 1/1000 and just Do It! But until then...
  4. Thom
    What size would it be in 1/1000? And did someone mention cost or did I miss it..?

    Nice work! I see the Invid (or is it Inbit) are here in force! I personally welcome our new overlords with open arms! On my bench is...

    It's good to see kits coming back out of the box! I know I have too many still waiting in limbo. And she's a Skull, huh? Cool.

    Great work going on. Nice builds on those tanks and the Invid. Nice color choice. I started putting decals down on mine.
  12. Thom
    Also working on this... This is my own version of the Jolly Roger tribute Valkyrie, like the one seen here before. Some of the decals that will be used. And the Skull Squadron ensign that will be in grays on the back.

    Well, when it comes down to it, which Yuki version is screen 'accurate..?' Or close to? I will say that though I do like those more generaous proportions, Yuki is more slender and lithe - and I like that too... But whichever one - keep 'em coming!

    Even the gravely Batman 'voice?' After one or two viewings, that just got annoying.

    See, that's why I didn't give him (Bay) a dime! At some point it'll be on TV and then I'll watch it, and probably pat myself on the back for spending the money on watching Maleficent again... Until then, I'll forget it even existed except for the odd moments when I see something Transformers related. Yay me! Hail me!

    I think it's still doing okay. I still have a problem with the Captain leaving the ship at the drop of a hat though. Somehow he considers himself expendable and his XO, who in private and not so private has stated his doubt about the 'mission,' will for some reason continue said mission if the captain is killed on one of his jaunts... And... SPOILAGE ... why are they still tied to the pier with a 'friendly' inbound..? All they had was a sexy English accent on the radio and the call sign of a known British ship. For being the last US Navy ship in the dying world, they can sometimes act all fat and happy...

    He still can't talk?!?!? He talked at the end of the first movie! The damned All Spark fixed him! Aaarggh! Must be just for the gimmick...
  22. Thom
    Well that was good, just not what I meant.. I mean a live action Transformers movie the way it was supposed to be...
  23. Thom
    When will they make the G1 Transformers movie..?
  24. Thom
    SPOILAGE!! Pretty much most of what I was having trouble with too. Plus, the Captain leaving the ship in an extended time of crisis? Much less putting his own life on the line in order to restart the ship..? What was he doing in the engine room anyway..? He has a crew to oversee these things while he commands all from the Big Chair. As for them choosing a destroyer and not a carrier, I can see that as our carriers are pretty much followed wherever they go. If they want secrecy to safeguard the hunt for the vaccine the best thing is a small operation that can hide within an extended weapons test mission. Plus, the Doctor stated that their mission - at first - had low priority. They wouldn't be tossing a carrier task group around the globe on what - at the time - was a simple scare. Of course, after the Government discovers how bad the situation really is it is then far too late. If eighty percent of the population is already infected and dying then more than likely most of the military is within that eighty percent, especially onsidering all the travel they do anyway. The best thing they could do would be to find as many Navy ships as possible - before they founder - and stockpile as much hardware as possible at a hidden location. They're going to run out of missiles and bullets and shells real quick, especially if any warlord with a ship or plane is going to try to fight them for the cure. And is it just me - or does anyone else feel a mutiny coming on..?

    If it had a different director, I might go to see it in the theatre. But I have no confidence that Bay has progressed passed the happy platue that he has reached in his previouse films, Pearl Harbor, Transformers 1 and 2 and 3... All aspire to too much grandoise machismo to cover up plot lines and scripts that are pretty much crap... And I've stopped hoping that it will get any better with the next sorry attempt to keep his ego boosted. But hey, maybe this will be better than before. Perhaps in a week or two I might go to see it in the theatre if I hear that it is better than the schlock that has come before. Or I'll just go see Maleficent again... Damn, Jolie is hot with horns...
