    Yeah, I'm watching it now. So far, the story is as stupid as I remember it being... ...although Hux's sudden reveal that "there was another transport in the desert" (carrying Chewie) doesn't seem like such a cheat, now that I see it was visible in a quick establishing shot. Okay, J.J. I'll give you that one.

    I really hope this Echo "buisness" is finished now... the Bad Batch have gotten a little tiresome after four episodes in a row. Hoping for a new setting with different characters next week.

    In Brofessor's defense, I think this is an apt analogy. Just look at Facebook; among the myriad Robotech fan groups is one specifically for The Masters War (which is mostly fan art of Southern Cross characters and mecha). It has 1400 members. FOURTEEN HUNDRED.

    Oh, so right back to the Comico days. It's the end of the circle.

    What the hell...? Who approved that fat-ass EVA? It looks like a fanboy wearing a costume!

    I knew it. I knew it! The release has been delayed AGAIN.

    Ya. Fair enough. I should probably just stay out of this thread.

    Macek used to claim that Harmony Gold had the rights to Orguss as well, but just couldn't come up with a way to incorporate it into the Robotech concept (primarily because of the Emaan's problematic antennae).

    17.5cm, according to BBTS... which would make it about 1:450 scale.

    I spent over $1300 on Blueberry Crabs -- just to ensure they'd get produced, mind you -- and multiple Kings as well, but I got stalled trying to source appropriately strong joints to articulate the Kings (I want action figures, not static models!), and... other projects have since occupied my attention. Oh, I much prefer the Helper Crab. Those ball-joints solve all sorts of problems. This one's from @duckmodelkits in Chile.

    I love the flickering orange lights on the console... Looks like a smoldering furnace under there. I can practically feel the heat!

    Way ahead of you, buddy.

    The crabs are back! Contact Moscato Hobby Models on Facebook (or Return 2 Kit Form for overseas customers).

    Over the last twenty years, the prequel trilogy (and spin-offs like The Clone Wars) have metastasized into Star Wars canon, so fans don't question it any more... but your point still stands. As much as Rian Johnson shat on the legacy of Luke Skywalker, Lucas himself did far worse to Darth Vader. But hey, at least the toys and models were cool.

    Rumor has it that Disney doesn't have to pay royalties to Lucasfilm on designs that are "legally distinct" from a pre-existing OT design, thus they can pocket 100% of the merchandising profits (which conveniently explains all the new Imperial troops in Rogue One, the lame speeder bikes and walkers in Rebels, the Falcon's radar dish, C-3PO's red arm, etc. etc.)

    is Mad Max the pilot?

    Funny, TakaraTomy didn't play those games with the Clones. Both sets were regular retail releases. Again, the Transformer Legends releases were sold in boxed sets... ...and while they're as small as some of the Studio Series deluxes, I think they're a little too big and bulky to be called "Legends scale..." ...maybe...?

    Sure, if you wanted him slumped down in the seat like... ...well, you know.

    No atmosphere on Cybertron... no gravity in space... no animated depiction on Earth... so, no complaints from me. Just yesterday, I was asked to acquire a set of the Japanese Legends releases, specifically for their Targetmaster pack-ins... I hadn't realized they'd already doubled in value!

    I'm surprised how well The Force Awakens holds up on repeated viewings -- much better than Attack of the Clones, for instance -- but The Last Jedi quickly became unwatchable. I have no intention of revisiting The Rise of Skywalker, as I can't imagine it being any more palatable the second time... But yeah, we've still got the OT, the games, The Mandalorian, and new Clone Wars episodes to look forward to, so let's just forget the sequel trilogy and move on.

    Well, you're not gonna find one at MSRP now... What would you consider a "decent" price?
  22. tekering
    There's very little content worth commenting on in this thread, but I have to ask about this... What possible reason would you have for using the "animated debut" Boba Fett for these pics?
  23. tekering
    Not much to spoil, really. It's mostly a lackadaisical vacation in paradise with the Rikers.

    I sure hope Roger Waters is getting royalties, since they've been hitting us over the head with "Another Brick in the Wall" for over TWO YEARS now!

    It's a repainted Takatoku/Matchbox 1:3000.
