  1. Maybe it'll look better when it's actually released, but yeah, that doesn't look great. This release is quite loaded, lots of accessories and bits and pieces, definitely a must buy. Up at BBTS, price is very comparable with overseas pre-orders, I grabbed one here, done with NY, much easier with BBTS. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/124328
  2. I just finished my first playthrough at 39 hours to do and collect everything, I dabbled with classic mode but it's kind of lame, it's locked to easy difficulty which is way too easy.
  3. Finished FF7 Remake, pretty good, 8/10 for me, it's not perfect and it's no 10/10 but it was good and I felt it lived up to the hype and wait. I clocked in at 39 hours and change total for my first playthrough, super thorough and meticulous, did everything and collected everything. Combat is fun, story gets admittedly idiotic, this isn't a 1:1 remake, this is very liberal towards the end with the remake part, for better or worse, the future installments will be covering pretty much brand new territory. Game is mostly gorgeous but as mentioned above, there are some garbage, PS1 era textures throughout the game, really terrible stuff, NPCs look mostly terrible and lip sync and mouth movements look awful outside major cut scenes. I'm baffled at people paying scalper prices online for physical copies, there will be more made, and there will obviously be a future collected edition when the other parts release. Overall I enjoyed my time, it was 90% faithful remake, 10% crazy new Nomura schlock. I'm interested in seeing how they handle the sequel seeing as how it should be heading to the open world area, I'm also wondering how progression will work and if/how we can keep items and progress from this game to the next, the level cap is 50 so we'll see how they handle that too.
  4. Very epic indeed, it's been a long time coming but the end is finally happening, seeing various characters getting set off to their big Clone Wars movie locations was pretty chilling. That classic Lucasfilm logo was cool as well, definitely presented things as more cinematic imo. I know this is the end and the budget was going to get let loose but damn, the animation quality is absolutely incredible, I'm hard pressed to think of a better looking CG animated series.
  5. It's the first part of the new Remake story, covering the Midgar portion of the original game, lengthened and extended to a full release and story arch. It's not a 1:1 Remake of the original game and story, there will be more parts but there's no word on how many and when.
  6. I understand these aren't what a lot of people were hoping for or expecting, but I am so in for this whole line, it all looks pretty fun. I've gotta wonder if Lego is making a mistake not doing at least a few more traditional sets with mini figures though, I see a lot of fans wanted something more along those lines.
  7. The original Resident Evil 3 was already exceptionally short even by OG Resident Evil standards. Seeing as how Code Veronica was supposed to be RE3 but didn't get finished in time so they just made RE:Nemesis RE3, it was never even a full RE game, it was always supposed to be a quick side story game. It's a wait for sale for me, the only other reason the original was worth the money was because it came packed with mercenaries mode, this one just comes packed with a garbage, janky, wonky as all hell assymetric multiplayer mode, Resident Evil Resistance. Which after 5 rounds of the beta on Xbox I can confirm it sucks, it feels unfinished and unpolished. Resident Evil Resistance was going to be a stand alone release but I think Capcom wised up and realized REmake 3 wasn't a $60 title so they padded it with this awful multiplayer mode. Times are tough right now and money is tight, I went with Final Fantasy 7 Remake instead, RE3 should've been a $40 title, it's far shorter and has far less replayability then REmake 2. And yeah, spoilers abound for FF7 Remake, it's already been streamed to completion on Twitch, all the secrets and surprises are out. Apparently, without spoiling things, the game takes some massive liberties with continuity and the story towards the end, and it's not going to be everyone's cup of tea.
  8. Got my Mandalorian duo at HLJ after getting jerked around by amiami for over twenty minutes, either way I got them so I'm happy.
  9. Well, there's the full Beskar Mando and Child, as a separate release, how fun. I'm guessing The Child will come with his floating crib setup, maybe a little frog creature, a hand with Mando's ship knob. At this point I'm going to cancel the original first two episode figure and get these instead, I don't need a figure of the more short lived look.
  10. DYRL Kaki? Ugh, pass, I just want TV valks. Also, can't Bandai just release a TV Roy 1S with a Roy and Hikaru pilot figure included then problem solved? I don't remember the valk having any differences between when Roy and Hikaru piloted it, aside from eventual TV super parts. If people want a Roy 1S with both pilots they can just double dip the same way they would have to if Bandai did separate TV releases anyway.
  11. This. It does look good, but not really better then the Mezco One:12 in any significant way so I'll pass on this and stick with Mezco. I highly doubt we'll see a Jack Joker from either company, from what I've read he's very hesitant about okaying merch based on his likeness, the Hot Toys was apparently a stretch to get the okay as is.
  12. I managed to get my figuarts Toku Spidey and Chogokin Leopardon at HLJ, definitely needed both myself. I actually watched all of Supaidman! in college many years ago, it's definitely terrible, but iconic, and immensely important as far as Toku history is concerned. Both toys look great and honestly, not even a week ago I was checking eBay for prices on the original Chogokin Leopardon, glad I didn't bite, this renewal version looks fantastic, plus a nicely articulated Figuarts to go with it is a huge bonus.
  13. Yeah I read this earlier, very cool news indeed, live action Ahsoka, finally! Kind of agreed here as well though, I remember reading that Ahsoka's character model changed slightly from Clone Wars to Rebels to better resemble Ashley Eckstein so she herself could one day possibly play her in live action. But like you said, Rosario is frakking awesome so I can deal, no real complaints here.
  14. HOLY frakkING crap, I did not expect Nargacuga, that is awesome! So bought, so, so, so bought, on site, no matter the price. I love Monster Hunter so everything Bandai puts out in this line is an instant buy for me, this guy looks fantastic! I'm dreaming of the future for this line, I hope it sells, Diablos is necessary, Rathalos and Rathian, Azure, Pink, Silver and Gold repaints, Tigrex, Teostra, I'd take a Fatalis, my favorite Elder Dragon.
  15. There's almost zero chance you won't love it, it's polished, optimized, and a hell of a lot of fun.
  16. Lol very true. I remember my uncle brought that up every time we discussed the casting, that Mr. Mom himself was going to ruin Batman, and be terrible. He frakking loved that film :).
  17. Really? 89 Keaton Batman? I didn't expect this, but I'd guess that's the point, nobody did. I'm still plenty happy with my eventual Mezco One:12, but this is cool. I can only imagine he'll have a cloth cape, Bandai finally decided hard plastic, separated cape bits are dumb and look bad. If they do a Jack Joker I'll have to grab both, but if Mezco announces their own I won't bother.
  18. Pretty fun episode last night. Next week appears to finally bring in guest star Terry Crews! I've watched him live-stream some builds a few times, guy is a pretty big LEGO fan, he has a nice building and storage area in his basement.
  19. My physical copy of Doom Eternal just got delivered to work, I'm so excited to pop this into my Xbox One X later and fire it up. Doom 2016 was, hands down, my favorite video game campaign of the generation, it was pretty much perfect, and the soundtrack was music to my ears, truly angelic. Rip and tear!
  20. Obligatory. Looks cool though, nobody really does classic Apes merch anymore, NECA did a bit, but that was a while ago, I think the cloth goods will look fantastic on this guy, I'm in for one.
  21. When the first bridge held 1000 lbs. I was amazed, then the second happened and I was blown away, holy hell. Love this show to death, and agreed, I'd say Tyler and Amy, the LEGO couple, have been the most consistent duo since the first episode, not one bad build, no real issues to speak of, impressive episode after episode, I'm pulling for them to win myself. Tonight looks fun though, the children's ad lib looks interesting, there's no harsher critics then children, especially when what you're building comes straight from their imagination and direction. Gotta say, during the Mega City build, though sneak peeks and previews already showed it, my heart sank and I let out a very loud NO when the Bromance couple's tower went down, that was really hard to watch, it had actual stories built into each level, and a neat little elevator system, how heart crushing. Worked out in the end though for the most part, multiple teams got saved on that episode with the "twist" half way through.
  22. Holy crap, I need it, looks really clever, and far more than I expected, I of course just expected a Mario level layout with a Mario minifig.
  23. When was this announced? Or is this a surprise release? That's really soon, and I hadn't read anything about this, it does look pretty good though.
  24. While this looks good I already have the Star Ace 1/6 Jules and Vincent, the ones with the spare clothes they got from The Wolf, so this is a pass for me even if it's a slightly different look for Vincent. I'd absolutely be in for more 1/6 Pulp Fiction characters though, Bruce Willis' Butch and an Uma Thurman Mia would be great.
