    I am seriously really enjoying The Orville, and I'm not a Star Trek fan at all in the slightest, I've literally never watched a single episode of any of the series, and I've only seen two of the JJ movies. Funny enough, I find Orville to be a better Star Trek show then Discovery, which is middling at best. If a parody/homage series is better then the real deal then you have a problem. edit: Also Orville wasn't what I expected at all, I'm sure myself and many others were thinking Family Guy Star Wars special, but no, Orville is quite literally just a big, expensive fan series/homage to Trek, with a few jokes here and there. Like I said, surprisingly good, and quite touching at times. Seth isn't just Peter Griffin in live action in this, he's a bit of a goof ball at times, but there is real character growth and he's slowly becoming a real Captain.

    Love the 19F, best 19 Yamato ever made. I have fond memories of when I had 3 of them .

    It happened, after getting him in Saturday evening due to TCP being the absolute BEST in third party retail within the US, I finally got to crack open this massive, absurd beast. Funny enough, even though I collect G1 MP exclusively, I only owned one single G1 toy, Omega Supreme. My older cousin got him from our grandma for his b-day way back in the day and rudely passed on him, you see he just turned 14, so he wasn't in to toys anymore. He got reamed and I got to go home with a beastly, old school Transformers toy. This release was special to me, even if I didn't collect G1 MP I feel I would have gotten it anyway. But I collect G1 MP, so I have literally dozens of other bots to re-arrange in order to fit this monster into my collection. Assembled, not exact, but he's about two feet tall.

    How many random, crappy spin-off X-Men shows are there? I've lost count at this point. I say crappy but Legion was actually pretty damn good, Gifted, not so much at all.

    Did this guy just go up for PO in Japan or something? I pre-ordered him from BBTS weeks ago.

    Wow yeah, after seeing the trailer, I WHOLEHEARTEDLY disagree! This looks amazing, and like a ton of fun! The CG looks perfectly fine to me, and I'm not seeing anything Power Ranger like with the new drift suits, they look fine, no worse of more PR like then the first film's suits. The CG looks phenomenal, plus it's not hidden by rain and darkness, a big issue I had with the fist film. To each their own I guess, I can't wait, it looks way bigger and better then the first!

    I can't wait!!! I absolutely LOVED the first one, this one looks like it will be a ton of fun too. What looks like a kiddie show exactly? The new Jaeger designs?

    D Amazing reviewed Jim Lee, er, tiger stripe Mezco One:12 Wolverine. He still looks Jim Lee to me damnit!

    I am getting VERY excited for Howling Meteor. I don't own a single MP seeker, not official, or KO, I've been waiting on something more, something better, and this guy looks like it. Oddly enough, I blatantly HATE the toon direction the official MP line is going in, and HM is clearly more toon accurate then MP-11, but I still think he looks superior in pretty much every way. Early reviews are solid, either the nearly 100% toon look is your thing or it isn't. As I said, for me, it USUALLY isn't, but once again, this guy looks leaps and bounds better then MP-11, so I'm excited to finally get some MP seeker action.

    I'm admittedly not the biggest X-Men fan, at all really, so I can say I definitely can't see or tell the difference, that Mezco looks Jim Lee enough to me! I saw Hasbro is working on a 12" "Jim Lee" Wolverine, it looks pretty good, I don't like the massive scale or proportions at all, is that the figure everyone is excited for? Came home to a package after spending five hours waiting to donate blood today, very dark day today in Vegas, gonna be working lighter hours and helping out at some places throughout the week. Shitty people suck.
  11. Tking22
    He looks amazing. Mezco Web Store exclusive, he's long sold out, releasing this Christmas.

    Nintendo seemed to wise up this year, it was easy to get a SNES Classic, not like the Nintendo Classic last year. Fans Toys Phoenix is a MUST HAVE figure in my opinion, he's easily my figure of the year so far, he is a massive, perfect, G1 cartoon MP Skyfire. Mezco Deadpool is really awesome as well, highly recommended, any variant will do, there is also an X-Men colored version and a X Force version. I wanted this more classic Deadpool to go with my eventual Jim Lee Mezco Wolverine...

    Same here, I just need that sweet, sweet MK I announcement and I'm good on Figuarts Iron/Tony stuff. I'm certain MK IV will also get a Bluefin release with another Hall piece, but I bought enough stand alone Halls to make it to 6, so I'm grabbing this stand alone MK IV at NY. Very expensive month September was, I gave NY a ton of money for new POs, Kurogane Chogokin Big O, Figuarts MK IV, ANIME Gelgoog, Figuarts Maul Speeder, Side Labor Unit 3 Patlabor. These guys get a healthy chunk of every check I make.

    I have a bunch of different friends that are getting in on Fortnite specifically for this. I also read this morning that the creator, or somebody important having to do with PubG, cried to Epic claiming they were stealing the idea for Battle Royale from PubG, as if PubG invented it, or is original in any real way, which it is not. Very hilarious stuff. Not knocking PubG, it's great at what it does, but to claim they somehow originated battle royal, multi-player death match games, is ridiculous. Kind of a random suggestion, but if you're looking for co-op, me and several buddies are getting VERY much back into Killing Floor 2. Very excellent game, very fun 6 player co-op, and lots of mindless, but very accurate and smooth, horde base zombie killing FPS gameplay.

    If they did then that's a happy accident I guess, from what I've read, people that went with AmiAmi and HLJ absolutely did NOT get the BB when they ordered separately, but those places also had the clearly labeled bundle sets available. Did NY have the bundle campaign set on their site? If not then there's a chance even they didn't know about the promotion and felt obligated to give out BB units to people who ordered separately since Bandai really flubbed this whole campaign set deal, or, they felt the whole thing was stupid anyway and just gave out the BB to everybody who ordered both figures either way while supplies lasted. I'm not sure about CDJapan, if they have the bundles listed separately maybe you'll get your BBs, maybe not. Once again, Bandai really did a piss poor job with these BB campaign bundle set things.

    Early, early in the morning, it was about 6:30am Vegas time. I was still insanely, irrationally pissed that I missed out on the classic comic Punisher figure, so there was zero chance I was missing this sexy beast of a Wolverine figure. I'm glad Mezco got their crap together and were a little more up front this time about the PO for this guy, that Punisher debacle left a really bad taste in my mouth.

    If Bethesda can get Doom running at the same buttery smooth 60fps that it was on the PS4 and X1, then that will be an experience. Even with a resolution down-grade, playing that portable will be one hell of a time. I personally feel the new Doom was one of the best, tightest, most well made first person shooters in years, it was an incredible game, literally everything about it.
  18. Tking22
    Me too. And it looks like the PO is already down.

    I honestly have never seen a yellowed Yamato valk, but I've seen a number of older V1 VF-25s that looked as if they were made in or painted yellow, crazy stuff.

    Apparently everyone's sarcasm meters are off due to an over-abundance of salt in the atmosphere...

    Nintendon't do third party games, Skyrim coming out is a miracle, that game is also as old as dirt. I NEVER expect any form of third party support for my Nintendo home consoles, it never happens, and if I never expect it I will never be disappointed . Very annoying though, Nintendo did promise more third party support this time around compared to the abysmal Wii-U and even the Wii. I wouldn't expect to be seeing new Assassins Creed, COD, Battlefront, Overwatch, or anything of note on the Switch any time soon. I'd love to eat my words, but I highly doubt it will happen, history has proven this time and time again. I just need Nintendo to get off their asses and put out some more first party titles, the Switch is neat, I always mess with my buddies at work and whenever I'm at someone's house that owns one, but I just can't bring myself to get one yet with it's lack of interesting games, BOW isn't enough, Mario looks great but that's still a little ways off. The system is definitely under-powered and that could be a factor for third parties, the PS4 and X1 are both getting/have gotten updated versions of their hardware put put already, going even further beyond what the Switch is capable of.

    Got a few more things in from HLJ, NY, and BBTS. I should have got at least two Tyrant Labors, they are REALLY neat figures. Qui-Gon is great, standard Jedi robe Figuart stuff, but with a Liam Neeson face. Two more Figuarts Hall of Armor sets, making 5 total, six when BBTS gets in my MK II and Hall set. I FINALLY got my hands on a Masterpiece Huffer, BadCube delivers once again with another fantastic MP mini-bot, these things are top notch, Takara will have to do something special to make me even consider their versions a decade from now when they get to them... Roy/Arsenal to go with Ollie, beautiful release, his bow is easier to draw then the one that came with Green Arrow, which is nice. Hannibal is what I've been waiting on, I love Silence of the Lambs as much as the next guy, Anthony Hopkins was my first exposure to Hannibal and Red Dragon as well, but the Mads Mikkelsen TV series went above and beyond in my opinion, it was brilliant, and far too good for how it was treated.

    The Hi-Metal R valks are far more fun then my older 1/60 and 1/48 stuff :). They're in a funner line as well, more interesting stuff then just the same figure over and over with a new paint scheme. 1/60 were fine for what they were back in the day, but I think this Hi-Metal R scale and these valks are much nicer overall, easier on space, funner to handle and transform, I think the mold is fine for the size. Different strokes I guess. The perfect transformation on the 1/60 and 1/48 never really wowed me, they aren't Transformer figures, they are transforming Macross toys, I'm fine with partsforming.

    Isn't that just the newly released AutoArt Falcon Interceptor? Not the Mad Max version? I have the older AutoArt Mad Max Interceptor with the dog and the extra dirt and mud paint apps, that looks quite a bit different from this.

    If you added them separately then no, but if you bought the specifically labeled two pack set that says it comes with the special campaign BB unit then yes. Only certain sites were selling the two packs campaign special sets, AmiAmi and HLJ had them for sure. This is what the campaign set with the BB unit looks like: https://hlj.com/product/BANSW1712 And then these are the stand alone releases, which once again, if you got separately and not the bundle, they won't be coming with the BB unit. https://hlj.com/product/BANN18657 https://hlj.com/product/BANN18655 It was pretty dumb how Bandai handled it, it confused a lot of people, and then promo shots of Rey showed her with BB-8 like it came with her, which it does not, BB-8 only comes with the Kylo two pack campaign special set. Very poorly handled, and then they didn't have the detailed info for the campaign special until nonsense up until the day AFTER the POs went up.
