    I'm surprised nobody posted anything new yet. http://www.taghobby.com/1-0/1-3/%E4%B8%8D%E6%96%B7%E6%9B%B4%E6%96%B0-2015%E5%B9%B410%E6%9C%8830%E6%97%A511%E6%9C%881%E6%97%A5-tamashii-nation-2015-%E7%A7%8B%E8%91%89%E5%8E%9F%E6%9C%83%E5%A0%B4%E5%B1%95%E5%93%81-s-h/ I don't care for any of the DBZ stuff, I got SS Goku and a Broly, I'm fine, but that original trilogy Star Wars gang, Hawkeye and Black Widow? Um, frakking yes please. Beerus, Freddie, and a bunch of others went up for pre-order the other night, I snagged two Freddies at AmiAmi, I need all of the Star Wars stuff, the Avengers, minus any extra Iron Man armors and the un-armored Tony, I need a Pikachu for my Smash collection, ugh... Edit: It looks like in the reflection to the left of the original trilogy Star Wars figs I see a Jango Fett standing there, maybe Boba, damn, Bandai really went all out, they literally want all of my money next year.

    You fools don't you see! With Figuarts Breetai announced that means we could possibly get some Figuarts Zentradi and Meltlandi!

    So yea this is all really amazing news, and now, I have zero reason to own any 1/60 stuff. I'll be selling my pink Arcadia 1J, and I've cancelled my Arcadia VF-4 pre-order, if there's a chance we're getting one in the Hi-Metal line, I won't even bother with Arcadia's expensive version, especially since I really only like one mode. In fact, ditto with the 0A, I was interested in an Arcadia VF-0, but they are charging far too much, and their QC is far too spotty for me, once again, if I can get one in the Hi-Metal line I'll be very pleased, I'm officially not even looking at whatever Arcadia announces from here on out, Bandai is truly attempting to put them out of their over-priced misery., and I'm very happy for it.

    I read this rumor last night, very, very stupid stuff. As if this movie doesn't have enough to worry about already...

    Indeed, I'm excited. I hate NBC, they really suck.

    And I'm pretty fine with that, in my opinion the Grodd episode was one of last season's strongest, and a personal favorite of mine. The fact that they're attempting episodes with characters like that is admirable enough. The King just looked so good, and his appearance came from absolutely nowhere. Yeah, earlier Patty found the teeth, but I figured it was just a little nod or easter egg, or a setup for something later in the season. But no, bam, there he was, and right at the most ironic part of Barry's speech. The show must have gotten a decent budget jump, being CWs highest rated show in their history paid off, plus I'd say Firestorm's effects looked better overall as well. Oh yea, and the new Firestorm, so that's how he's doing Legends of Tomorrow without Ronnie. Jax seems okay, I'm fine with the actor and character I guess, I kind of expected them to bring back Jason Rusch, he was already introduced, did he die, or did they forget about him?

    Damn, so, how about that last 2 minutes of last night's The Flash? From what I read, that little snippet with the King cost a pretty penny, but he looked really, really, really, really, good, like, I was damn impressed they managed to pull that off, well done CW.

    Don't know if anyone here's interested, but I'm definitely pre-ordering one. http://lego.gizmodo.com/here-are-the-first-official-shots-of-the-lego-ghostbust-1738932397 The set is a little pricey, but that's a lot of pieces, and it looks fantastic. From what I've read, the Ideas Cusoo Ecto-1 will fit in the garage too, I'm glad I grabbed one a while back, I guess now I'll have two official Ghostbusters mini-fig sets!

    . I figured as much. Syndicate is a good bit of fun in my opinion, I agree with you, a lot of people were turned off the franchise by Unity, I sure was, after going from Rogue to that I just couldn't fathom how it was the same franchise. Syndicate is pretty great though like I said, if you haven't touched an AC in a while I'd recommend it, the stealth is useful and fairly well handled, the combat is fast and brutal, more like Black Flag then Unity, London is huge, and there's tons to do, naturally. The main thing I'm liking is having two protagonists, it reminds me of GTA V, you can swap between the two pretty much whenever you want, Evie is the more stealthy of the two and gets beefier exclusive stealth upgrades, meanwhile Jacob is a brawler that gets the more intense combat upgrades, either way, both characters are a refreshing change of pace from the more boring assassins like Connor and Arno, plus both get some crazy exclusive moves and kill animations.

    I'm 5000% sure you're remembering wrong, or you're being insanely sarcastic or something. It's called Black Flag, as in pirates, you were Edward Kenway, pirate turned assassin, it had ship battles with pirates, and muskets and flintlocks, with pirates. I think you may be remembering Unity, which was set in Paris, and was very meh for a lot of people, myself included, plus it had an infamously disastrous launch. I got Syndicate, I like Syndicate quite a bit, got roughly two hours into Unity and quit, never came back, Syndicate is much better then Unity, I would recommend Syndicate. What exactly is it you're not convinced about? Rogue was like Black Flag, it was essentially a frozen Northern version of Black Flag, but yea, once again, I think you're just remembering you ACs wrong. If anything Syndicate is a bit more like Unity, but not completely terrible.

    To be fair, this friend is more of a brother, I've known him since I was 3, and we always exchange beastly Xmas gifts, I've already hinted to him that I NEED a PG Banshee model kit.
  12. Tking22
    He looks okay...I guess. No, honestly, he looks quite terrible to me, I'll definitely stick with the FansToys version, whenever they decide to actually release it...
  13. Tking22
    I got another. The one I recently bought went to my girlfriend's brother, this one will go to a friend of mine for Xmas, zero interest in owning one myself.
  14. Tking22
    The price looks good, but I've got too much coming out in February, I gotta get me Legacy Thunder Megazord, VF-4 is cool, but Thunder is a personal holy grail, so I gotta pass.

    I locked down a Roy at NY, paid in yen, price was better then USD. I just need a Hikaru 1S now, and some more Regults...

    I got my special news paper, and a case of Back to the Future Pepsi Perfect, I'm good now.
  17. Tking22
    Ugh, I bought even more Legos... I also got in my Figma Armin and Cleaning Levi, Levi's box was too damaged however, so I sent him back. I'll just go without I guess, all I could get was a refund instead of a replacement, I also got one of those bamboo roof stand things.

    That was their intention, as that is exactly how the source is. Lol this is kind of what I mean, I'm not defending the movie, it obviously looks crazy and over the top, my point was that this is exactly how it should look, the novel starts out and seems like a simple retelling of Pride and Prejudice, then the zombies pop up and everything gets cranked to 11. Being older doesn't give you some magical extra sensitive garbage film filter, everyone is guilty of watching over the top brain dead garbage from time to time, not a single person can, with a straight face say, every film they enjoy is widely praised and liked. This film will be no different, some will make it a guilty pleasure film, and yet most will just see it as too over the top and ridiculous. Plenty of people of all ages can discern if something looks too stupid or crazy for them, nobody is forcing anyone to watch this, being able to decide if it's not for you based on a trailer doesn't you make you some wise guru, my point is that obviously not every film is for everyone, and yet films like this will always have their place, and they will always have fans who are excited to see them. Like I said, I doubt I'll ever see it in theaters, but being familiar with the source, it will definitely be a rental or red box, it's not a property I'm head over heels for. I've just gotten tired of reading the same boring comments in every thread for a film that pops up that are exactly the same, (Oh wow, this looks like garbage, this reminds me of X, this looks so terrible who is this for?), there's just so much boring negativity on here it hurts my head. Yes there's a lot of crap coming out, but damn people, god forbid one day you happen to sit down and watch one of the movies you damned based on a 1:30 trailer and you actually end up enjoying it...

    Fargo had a damn good season premier, it's so dark, and yet so funny too, it's got a huge ensemble cast, excellent performances, (I'm not a fan of Kirsten Dunst, but I can already tell she's going to be pretty great this season), and it's just really well written. I needed it too, my girlfriend is making me watch the Snoring Dead every Sunday again, ugh.

    Also, that Figuarts Bowser is super disappointing, I didn't expect him to be too big, but that's too small. I'll still get one, I really like the Figuarts Mario releases, I'm just upset they couldn't at least have made Bowser as big as the crappy, cheap Jakks Pacific one I have. I guess I'll keep the Jakks version for my Super Smash collection needs, and get Figuarts Bowser just to go with the Figuarts Mario stuff.

    Yea when it comes to MW members opinions on movies, I don't even take them with a grain of salt anymore, I blatantly ignore about 90% of them. MW is unfortunately full of boring old people that complain about remakes and reboots of things they grew up with, and they complain about things they aren't familiar with, many can't help but ask who is this for? Obviously not you if you're asking. I haven't read the novel since college, but like you said, it looks like campy fun, and since I'm familiar with the source material that's a draw too. Doubt I'll see it in theaters, but it does look like it could be some dumb fun, the novel was a short entertaining read, so who knows, I may give it a go on a matinee or something.

    Cleaning Levi and Armin are on the way from another site . The maneuver gear can get a bit fiddly, but overall, they're damn fine figures, I just wish someone made some kind of titans to go with them.

    Wait, what, Figma Ultron? Do you mean Revoltech?

    I noticed this issue popping up last week, I went to pre-order a Figuarts Ultron from NY, only to get a message saying due to Bandai's new policy with premium items, I would have to pay for Ultron immediately. Kind of sucks, I paid for him then and there, and I had already paid off my Hulkbuster months ago, but it seems tons of people are getting royally screwed by this sudden, "Surprise! You owe us lots of money now!" approach Bandai is putting on their premium items. And I'm still not sure what items are even affected, I pre-ordered Figuarts Ranma just fine, pay later as usual, but Ultron required immediate payment.
