    Here is my take on this joy ride of an action movie. Which first I didnt have to pay for but made me go to the big screen to enjoy the sound and visuals. This movie is quite unique both this and the original is that it lacked those jackass points in the movie where bad guy would exchange all of his plans until the good guy in slow mo kicks the gun from a stupid akward direction with his big toe to end up shooting the bad guy to win the day. This bad boy keanu gets his ass beaten, which makes sense. For parts of the movie they dont forget that he has reoccurring injuries and needs to take drugs to keep going. I like that he acts like an assassin. Doesnt hesitate to get the job done and chooses efficiency in his kill style. Overall you feel the rage in the character. This movie was not garbage and your hard earned buck worthy. It makes me think of the movie Parker

    I will give my prequel review so I dont need to waste my time writing my take on this garbage Thankfully I wont have to pay to watch this garbage Yet again another string of mindless boring sequels that didnt actually have to be made because the original as much as it was dumb was a place for its time Russia vs US and pretty much like watching a modern day MBAY movie with endless shots of the american flag surrounded by a backdrop of sunsets and motor oil and Budweiser. This movie will be garbage

    Here is my take on this movie. And thankfully I didnt have to pay for this semi garbage. Major just seemed awkward in this movie. Like boring awkward. Yeah I get it, in the OVA the major seemed emotionless but it comes across much better in anime format The anime has sort of a transitionless moments where you have a break from the characters and action or story to encapsulate yourself in the surroundings or backgrounds of the world the characters live in . The movie didnt have this. It missed the mark of what the philosophy in the anime was about Most of the movie was blah blah blah and blah blah blah oh look spider tank. It was a fancy bland and boring movie that left me wanting to go back and watch the anime This movie was semi garbage.

    Thankfully, I did not have to pay for this garbage. And why would anyone. Bollywood has be reprinting the same ol garbage and then feeding you trailers. The characters. Not only were expendable but were dumb which made me not even watch how brutally expendable they are. Can someone finally shoot the F*&@ing android already. Shaw is an idiot. Which explains a lot since most of her crew were also idiots. No one clues in on the creepiness of Albert or Wong or whatever his name was cause I didnt care. Which then makes me wonder how far disconnected from the original premise of the movie it was. A mysterious 3rd party alien that didnt you know look like a another human. Or that they created humans. Or that a dysfunctional bi pedal terminator robot scientist created a pretty stupid alien. Look at a panther. A friggen cat has more sense than this dumb ass monster. This movie was just dumb. Thank god for torrents. If movies came with a satisfaction guarantee like most things bollywood would probably divest itself from self important SJW lieberal bad actors and bad directors and endless after endless or rehashes or sequels prequels and comic book movies

    Funny how some collectors have taken my criticism in the wrong way. Even calling it a meltdown. And the case is not at all. Its a more of a comment of what people are willing to accept. I just made a comment on another thread about the latest and newest of valks with broken parts. Essentially castrating them from the whole "Transforming" Concept. I think first off, stop making them so dam "busy" might be a start. And as I also stated, complexity should not be an issue when MP Starscream, one of the more complex of jet Transforming mecha has no issues. Even 3rd party cone jets such as Toyworlds and even KOs like KBB have no issues Paying 300 dollars for Collectables for Mid to high end collecting toys that break is just plain ridiculous. If I peruse the for sale thread there are a lot of valks there. Which means there is a lot of turnover on this birds. I know some it may be collector attrition but I think its pricing fatigue and just the many QCs even in 2017. Of all the transforming toys it seems Macross is the dodge of transforming toys. All of my Movie Prime Toys have never broken and that badboy is a rubiks cube of transformers

    In response to the Picture of the Broken Bird What a joke Macross collecting has become. LOL I received mine 3 weeks ago. I will never transform it. In jet mode it will stay forever! Thanks. I will no longer buy any valks. These things are a disaster. Funny. Hasbro can make durable starscream jets and so can the 3rd parties and even knockoffs can too, but the worlds biggest toy manufacturer cant. HA LARI OUS

    Talking about ships. For Fhawks sake, give us some new bloody tie fighters. Man would it be so cool if we could get Tie Defenders or Tie Hunters. Jeez. So sick of the basic Tie fighters. As bad as it was the Prequels were pretty original. I loved the Naboo Fighter. So sleek looking, general Grivous' Fighter and even the Jedi proto fighters. While I love. No ADORE the Falcon why cant we have a new runner ship. Like a YT 1930 or something we got from the rebels. Disney is being really lazy The new Rebel captial ships look like an upright YT 2400 and I hate that design

    I know some people are going to flame me. But hear me out. Being a fan of the Macross franchise is exhausting to say the least. Especially if you are into the cool jet designs and want a figure. Let me start from the show perspective I Know that Songs, singing, bad pop was always a part of the story. But it wasnt the whole part of the story. It actually aided the story along. In fact if it was it would be another musical but just animated. Argh. The original was more about a love triangle and a struggle of being lost in space being perused by aggressive aliens. It was a lost in space meets cowboys and indians with Top Gun machismo I always hated that a an alien race would go bonkers with a humans song. For all that matters their vocal cords and internal ear structures could have evolved into something that didnt even hear human audible sounds. Ugh, playing a guitar while flying around. Having a jet fighter strapped with huge speakers in space ugh. OK OK we can hear sounds from space ie radio waves with specialized equipment but the Zentrati could have just blocked those sounds. anyhoo whatever, I liked the fighter vs Fighter scenes. Honestly speaking story wise, I think Macross the Movie, the original OVA and Zero were the best shows. Although Zero started getting weird in that Evangelion way. The new show UGH. ....But the biggest selling point is also the Jets. When Yamato was doing it, it was cool 1/48 scale !!!! AWESOME !!! but they were limited. Often broke and were bloody expensive and almost impossible to get. And still they are with the new company whatever they are. Then bandai came around and a Great Eureka moment occurred. A chogokin Quality and quantity with a decent price. And then what we got were poorly designed jet with short gimpy landing gears, parts that break. I mean my Version 1 Blue jet, forgot the name and I got the edition with the Super part packs with the missile pods, just broke the other day, all I did was move the wing into position to pose in the cabinet, and only ever transformed it once to robot mode and it just snapped. LOL incredible. I know people here in HONG KONG are bathing in money, but for me money or not, its a just such a waste to have a collectable item break on you. I mean there are G1 transformers out there that have been taken care off that are still functional at that and that was 36 years ago not something from 6 years. Really piss poor sub standard chogokin from the Worlds Biggest Toy Fab company. And please dont make the excuse well its share of the market is low. I call bull. 3rd Party Transformers have a pretty small Market share and actually have a lot of costs that have to be adsorbed by a small group of people, 1) design, 2) pre fab, 3) QA and defect fixes 4) final assembly and then 5) sales Bandai doesnt suffer from any of this. Then Bandai sneaks in V2s with a price increase of a 100 dollars. And I guess people really dont know what to do with their money cause they seem to just replace the entire fleet with V2s Jeez. I wish i had that kind of miscellaneous speeding ability If you compare high end toys, like Hot Toys, sideshow and dare I say now a lot of the 3rd parties it seems that Bandai keeps giving the middle finger to collectors from the Gundam and Macross base. Trying to get a valk in 2017 is expensive and nearly impossible. So I am saying what is the point. With 3rd Parties branching into Ninja Turtles and now Gundam I really welcome 3rd Party getting into Macross. Screw the IPs if companies are going to be that brazen with a fan base then 3rd party should pick up that slack. It certainly has not hurt Hasbro.....

    This is what pisses me off about this P fhawking bullshit bandai stuff. Um the next earth quake I say we let bandai pay for all the relief. I kid I kid I really wanted f91. I didnt think people liked that mech. But I have fond memories as young University student watching that anime. AND BLAMO GONE! How BANDAI is the worlds biggest toy company is amazing since most of the time all the cool crap they dont want to sell overseas. And there is demand. Now like before I have to pay some fhawking a-hole scalper 600 bucks to own it. I wonder if I have to dish out 1000 fhawking dollars to own the MB Wing Zero!
  11. slaginpit
    Yes it literally blows up
  12. slaginpit
    That really sucks. I cant believe Planet X really dropped the ball. Your experience with the lights mimics anothers. No ability to turn off when installed. WTH is that when you pay that much for a toy. I cant even find any video reviews. Well Glad I read yours and anothers review before I hit the pay now button. Took out Set A from my shopping cart on RK.com. Seems not to many people are keen on the set. I wonder is this the one that breaks the company?
  13. slaginpit
    Whats is your take on it. I've seen some pretty bad reviews of it
  14. slaginpit
    So I received this figure today and I have to say its....small. Really small. Take a look at the pictures below. -Its smaller than 1/100 MG Gundam model. -I would say paint apps are the best part of this figure. I love the metallic look and you never have to worry about it chipping off. -Where I knock this figure is its joints. They are way to loose and will just flop over if you try to put it any dynamic pose like a bent A-stance. And this is what sets this figure apart from the original. Aside from the drastic Mini Me presence it has toe joints and an ankle rock. -Ratcheted Joints in the elbows and Shoulders. -Comes with a Orb Spark from the episode where he places the spark from optimus into his chest Overall, its decent figure but for close to 100 dollars for shipping really not worth it. If it cost 50 bucks plus shipping I would rate this figure much higher and the fact the knee joints are basically non existent knocks this down to one star. No point in a figure cant stand
  15. slaginpit
    Definitely
  16. slaginpit
    Just came in. The box is huge. Just like the Mini aint mini anymore, the master made deformed series are getting bigger with each iteration, but somehow retain the same height. And this guy weighs a lot more that the previous releases. Will post more pics with a summary review shortly
  17. slaginpit
    So you want me to move the pics or post the same pics there?
  18. slaginpit
    Leafs LOL Technically its a third party that received a license to print. Its not Hasbro or Takara. But my thread your website. Do as you like. Not sure if your asking my permission as I know the moderators are very VERY strict and will do as they please :/
  19. slaginpit
    Here is the HT OP. AS you can see its pretty bland. I hear its nowhere near posable. And when I saw it in person comes off as pretty cheap looking, which is unusual since HT is pretty well know for their paint apps.
  20. slaginpit
    NO Another third Party Toys Alliance. But they got the license from Hasbro Next up is Fall of Cybertron Prime then Megatron. Its very good and has the exact light plastic feel as the ThreeA transformers so its very posable, it has light up eyes and light matrix that can be lit up even if taken out of the chest. Unfortunately it doesn't come with the watch batteries. Its bigger than the unimetal but much much ......much cheaper. Really lines up well with ThreeA but not the diecast Comicave AoE prime AS a summary review. I would say for 150US you cant go wrong. I would say its the best non transforming G1 Prime. The detail is phenomenal, and the paint apps are stellar. Everywhere it didn't have small paint detail apps, its there. The tires on the legs are rubber so that has me a bit concerned. It holds poses like a champ. Something that MP 1, 2 and unimetal cannot do. The chunky aesthetics really don't distract from the overall presence. However, due to the size, like THreeA DoM and the toyworld Devy it wont fit in a detolf so it would have to go on top or you would have to take out one class shelf. It has butterfly joints in th e shoulders and all ratchet joints in the legs knees, angles. Double jointed knees and elbows. Great articulation in the neck and head area. I am very impressed. It has this weird metallic red paint that when in very bright lighting comes off as a bit pinkish to me but over all 4 out of 5 from me

    I think he fits in well with that muscular Prime G1 Look.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    slaginpit replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    OK Not sure these internet vendors are just frakking scalpers. I could be wrong. But i noticed. Pre-order a valk if you have even a chance, for around 170YEN but if you dont you can buy it for 250yen Pfft LOL JFC. And I do like the look of them but after my v1 VF-25 from Frontier shoulder broke at the wing transforming it for only the second time. Its left a fowl taste.New Century and still cant make a 200+ toy not brake.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    slaginpit replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    so I saw last night it was available on NY. I want one but wont pay 300 dollars for it. Canadian economy is sinking, my wing on my frontier blue jet just broke for no reason while i was transforming it for a 3rd time. These jet are way overpriced. Also I see a lot of these for sale by private collectors who just cant get rid of them. Bandai has gotten too long in the tooth with their macross stuff. I dont know why they are so overpriced to get items now. Oh well.
