  1. Dang...thought something cool had just been announced....still dreaming of some Chinese KO crew super-sizing the original chunky monkey!
  2. Speechless...I am
  3. Next new mold MUST be the TV SDF-1.........if Arcadia is the boutique collectible purveyor everyone seems to be insinuating in order to rationalize their pricing structure, then the TV SDF-1 would surely fall into the "boutique" category of a high-end collectible....limited release....high price....and still would completely sell out....
  4. No better way for a "critic" to call attention to him/her-self than to disparage a movie that is more or less universally liked by the fans of such things.....in other words....bashing Star Wars and defending it are more or less the same thing.....just sad attempts at calling attention to yourself and/or getting likes/views on YouTube...
  5. Was thinking the same thing.....I will buy the stand alone release of TROS to complete my collection of sequel movies.... The only "fancy" set I would sort of buy again...would be an official release of all of the OT films as they were presented on screen on their day of release
  6. LOL...who still needs to be "sold" on Star Wars being "really that good"? Not only has it dated well...stood the test of time....is still relevant....and kickstarted the greatest franchise of all time! Additionally, not much else that has come after it...in terms of its sequels, prequels...has been able to match it
  7. Empire Strikes Back A New Hope Return of the Jedi Revenge of the Sith The Rise of Skywalker The Force Awakens Attack of the Clones The Phantom Menace The Last Jedi It was a toss up between TPM and TLJ....I placed The Last Jedi at No. 9 only because it now seems completely meaningless...at least The Phantom Menance introduced the concept of "The Chosen One" which....
  8. I had said a while back that JJ was brought back in to end this all as safely as possible and IMO he did exactly that. I enjoyed it. Could it have been better...probably. Would it have been easier to make a better ending without having to retcon many of the nonsense from Ep 8...you betcha! I think this was as best a course correction as we could have hoped for. Heck....the best line and the biggest wink to the fans comes from Luke Skywalker.... 'nuff said! Amen to that brother! It's been a long fun ride for the most part.....glad it is over....well, it's never really over.......(patiently awaits the next episode of the Baby Yoda Show!)....
  9. Waiting for the "Patrick Nagel" version of the WW-84 poster....is it just me or do those mugs already copy the style?
  10. Was it the first time we see one of these in a live-action SW? It was one of my favorite toys from the original merch releases from back in the day....feeling dangerously nostalgic....not a good state of mind to be in, particularly for your wallet, during the holidays!
  11. Great cliffhanger episode! Who will bail them out? The Mandalorians....New Republic Commandos?.....Ahsoka?
  12. Wouldn't be surprised....it's now apparent that his "suggestions" on how to bring "his" story to a close were all scrapped....guess that's what happens when you sell your franchise....whodathunk!!!
  13. I recall that mentioned in an article back in April.... https://www.inverse.com/article/54877-star-wars-rise-of-skywalker-kylo-ren-helmet-in-episode-9-reference-japanese-art Yeah, makes no sense for Ren to incorporate it into his "look" based on his whole viewpoint from the last movie...JJ just simply threw it in as something "visually cool"...
  14. Once again...the music was the best part of anything related to Wonder Woman...well, other than the actress portraying her...

    Hi-Metal R

    Don't forget.....Bandai already gave us a preview of what they may be releasing down the road.....so far it has proven pretty spot on... Bandai pretty much released the FB 2012 VF-4....the Macross Plus YF-19 (and now the YF-21 s coming)....the MII VF-2SS..... Based on the pic....we will probably get either a VF-19 DX or an upgrade to the original HM VF-19.....as for MF.....my guess would be an HMR VF-25 line rather than "re-inventing" the DX versions.....same goes for the VF-0....which still seems to be an Arcadia property......time will tell
