I'm moving to California in November, it's going to expensive, I've also ordered three sets of all the Hot Toys Guardians of the Galaxy releases. It is what it is folks, after seeing the 29 Ozma and a couple other releases disappear, I figured it was a good investment and an easy way to make some cash after the move while also leading into the super expensive holidays.

My first 30 is due in today, I've got two more due in by the end of the week, then, all three are off to storage! I'm tempted to mess with one before I store them, but if I do that I can't sell it as brand new later, quite the conundrum, fighter looks pretty cool but the rest is very meh in my opinion, especially that brace thing, that is totally weak.

I'm in for a sequel, I enjoyed it. Maybe Hot Toys can give us some Turtles for the next film, I'm really selective about their releases because they're really spotty as far as QC goes, but I'd be in for all 4 if they made them, a Shredder too.

Just got back from my 7:30 showing, I loved it, haters gonna hate. The Turtles were badass, Shredder was badass, Splinter was badass, the comedy was surprisingly tasteful, some stuff like the crushing on April drags a bit, but overall well done. The Turtles banter was spot on, I liked the voice actors, aside from some really obvious holes and cliches in the story I liked it, it was exactly what I wanted from a rebooted Turtles franchise, lots of call backs to the classic material both comic and cartoon, and the designs grew on me. Also, Shredder killed it, did I mention he was badass? I was also surprised to see a certain female Foot-Clan elite that I had heard no mention of before-hand, she didn't do much unfortunately, but still a cool nod to the recent series on Nick.

Wew, that's good. I'm fine with it being a DYRL release, I don't care what the box says, and if it's like the DYRL Roy 1S, it will be exactly the same as a TV version, bright white, which is what I want and am ready for. Grey goggles would be cool, I could care less if it's accurate or not, I just like how it gives a little contrast to the head/camera area, it breaks up all the white nicely in my opinion, I'll paint it myself if I have to.
-
Wait so is thing weathered then, or just the armor, or is that whole thing a custom? If it's weathered then that sucks, I just want a bright, clean Hikaru 1J, I'd have to pass if it's weathered.

I gotta get this guy, he looks good. I've got Showa Gozilla and Millennium Godzilla, I need the Heisei one you've got there, and of course Godzilla 2014, I need a version of every era of Godzilla in my collection!

Hm I didn't know that, all I remember was seeing Max Factory on the box, I guess it was before they started the figma line then? Either way, I'm excited and I'm getting one, Guyver unit 1 is badass.

Robotech Academy - You want a new Robotech series...?
Tking22 replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
So I haven't been following this at all, I could care less about Robotech, I figured it's been dead for a decade now anyway, and the only actual bit of Robotech related media I've personally experienced is Robotech Battlecry. I've spent the last half hour reading back pages of comments, damn, this KS business is crazy, it's funny, sad, stupid, a whole mess of things at once, the main thing I wondered, and I'm sure it's been asked, is why didn't Harmony Gold fund this, isn't that kind of what they're supposed to do as opposed to asking the fans for money? I became intrigued, all of this is damn amusing, but I came in late, it's already cancelled, I missed the party. That said, I decided to go through the KS itself and read comments, hilarity ensued, then I decided to go the ye olde Robotech.com main site, just to get a glimpse at the much talked about forum, and damn, it did not disappoint. As others pointed out, lots of playing it down, they expected it to fail, it was just to gauge interest, yada, yada, yada, but then I came across this gem, and I felt I had to contribute before this sucker gets locked up. posted by a dude named, of course, robotechisbetter: Why did you cancel? Maybe in the last day some rich guy would back all that is left. We still had hope. It is all macross fans fault, have you guys ever gone to a macross forum? They are all criticizing Robotech, they are all scheming against Robotech future plans. They are happy the Kick Starter got cancelled. Look at this post: Guess it's safe to call it... Time of death... exactly 10am, Aug. 2, 2014 Joking about the failure of the KickStarter. Why can't they just let us be happy? That's a quote from this thread here on MW, we truly are the ones to blame, these Robotech people have apparently been monitoring our escapades here, and they are angry. I needed this, good solid laughs were had. The blatant BS and crap being shoveled by that Mckeever guy is hilarious, not a single straight answer, and everyone's okay with that.- 2025 replies

I broke down and watched a torrent, I'm a bad person. The movie was okay, several actors got almost no screen time and became pretty much unnecessary altogether, like the second film, and the lack of R rating was disturbing, I can safely say Wesley Snipes was probably my favorite part of the film, he was badass.

I know GoT is over, but is everyone with an HBO subscription watching The Leftovers? If your answer is no, I can assure you you've been wasting your Sunday evening, the show is quite amazing.

I'm totally in for Guyver, I never got the original Figma releases because they became stupid expensive, but I'm definitely jumping on this one, and Guyver 3 whenever he gets re-released.

All Things Videogame Related: EXTREME VS!!
Tking22 replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Holy s#@%, there are actually other people out there that didn't think Last of Us was the single greatest gift to gaming? And more then that, the people showing disinterest aren't being jumped on and bashed for not praising it as the greatest game in the history of man kind? My mind is blown.- 6878 replies

Guardians of the Galaxy, on DVD/Blu-Ray December 9, 2014
Tking22 replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Got back an hour ago from my 7:30 showing, I loved it. I don't read Marvel cosmic so I can safely say I'm not familiar with the GoG themselves, but seeing NOVA, Nowhere, and some other really cool, important, major locations in the cosmic universe was awesome. Remember people, this is a Marvel Studios film, stay after the credits, it's not a scene that I would call integral or even necessary, but in my opinion it was f!$@#%& hilarious.- 344 replies

Deadpool, on DVD/Blu-Ray May 10, 2016
Tking22 replied to miles316's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Pretty cool test footage, I have zero faith that a full fledged R rated Deadpool movie would ever happen, anything less than R and the movie becomes completely pointless, in my opinion of course. -
Wow, I'm glad I have zero interest in Macross Frontier, Ozma, or the 25 Messiah, but I know everyone has been spazzing and twitching over this re-release for awhile, good luck everyone.

Tking22 replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Well I would definitely recommend Mass Effect, but if you're not feeling that I get it, it's also an RPG, so it's really slow at times. I'd also recommend Vanquish, any Halo, Halo Reach was good, you can't go wrong with a Gears of War, I recently started playing Splinter Cell Conviction again, it can be a shooter, or a stealth game, Half Life 2's campaign is always fun, I recently got back into State of Decay as well, AKA my favorite zombie game probably ever made, Crysis is a competent enough shooter, Borderlands is very addictive, the Bioshock series is great, Red Faction Guerrilla gets overlooked a lot but it was a ton of fun and had a gorgeous destruction engine, the Transformers Cybertron series is excellent, hell the first one is co-op so I'd be willing to buy it back, Lost Planet if you're into that, the new Deus Ex was pretty fun, a lot to digest I know, I've just played a lot of games so I'm a bit all over the place when people ask me for suggestions, I tried to fit the criteria though.- 6878 replies

So Expendables 3 leaked online, not just a trailer or a clip either, the whole f#*@!^% movie is online. I'm tempted, I haven't fired up Utorrent in months...Nah I'm no pirate, but I also didn't plan of watching it in theaters, this is a true dilemma, either way Stalone's probably pissed and people are going to get sued.

One or 360? Games with gold for 360 is getting Dishonored in the second half of August, depending on your platform I could make some suggestions, any particular type of game your looking to play? FPS, stealth, indie, platformer, etc.?- 6878 replies

Yup, looks like a VF-0 in gerwalk, I'll pop in now and then to see whenever they fix the color, because the Max look is just not doing it for me at all, molds looking good though.

At this point I'm 100% in for one, seeing as I don't even have a Hikaru 1J, so now I"m just wondering about price. As I posted in the last page I'm going to sell the armor, I really don't want it, but I'd like to have a reference for the whole figure's price so I'd know what would be fair to sell the armor for by itself. I'd like to get back what money I can for the stuff I don't want, and here's to hoping that by release they give us the grey goggles, I'll paint it myself if I have to but I don't want to.

Lol whatever, typo, The Demon. Also apparently WIldcat is coming too. http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/07/27/sdcc-2014-ras-al-ghul-and-wildcat-coming-to-arrow Pretty cool news, and as I said above, Brandon Routh is Ray Palmer, who eventually becomes Atom.

While Ant-Man is like the Aquaman of insects, he uses and communicates with what he needs, he primarily rides around on flying ants, that's his default ride, also, that's a cool f$*#@!% helmet.

It looks like Solid Snake is coming first, then yes, we will eventually get a Phantom Pain Big Boss/Punished Snake, which is awesome.

Medicom/Hot Toys and all 1/6 scale figures
Tking22 replied to EXO's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
So I would be in for Marty and the Delorean, but if and only if, we get a Hot Toys Doc Brown, if he doesn't get announced, it's no dice for me.
