You know the whole "waving your hand like that...who do you think you are, a Jedi?" trick does work on Graham.... (Graham = Sith lord)

Their probably just trying to get people to buy the crap....

That was suppose to be an un-mentioned cameo but IIRC, it was ultimately it was removed and just left as a no-name tech.

Nope.

It's "Lost" most of its flare cuz they're answering lots of questions. So much of the mystery is starting to die because they're doing that. Granted it can't stay a mystery forever, but much of what made the show good really can't be dished out, especially with the direction the show is headed in. We're getting too comfortable with it. The same is happening to BSG. We're getting comfortable with the theme and style of the show. So it slowly starting to lose it's luster. I fear Heros will suffer the same if it makes it to its 3rd season. I've watched it this season but it doesn't capture my attention this season anymore. The same is happening with BSG. I wasn't really paying attention to a few episodes this season. I'm getting too comfortable in its characters and story telling.

I know I have a picture of that Superior Gundam model somewhere around here. It was on a stand in front of a window. It was the size of a small child....

That is incorrect. There are several different companies that currently own a license for DYRL. HG is not one of them. The chances of seeing DYRL? is currently very slim due to the fact that this production has many licensors. Please see these threads: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=19303 http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=20738

That first pressing? Yes. That pressing is becoming rare but not so rare that it's not impossible to find individual DVDs or mini-boxsets.

It is the base from the Full Burst set....

That actually one of the new scenes in Special Edition 4 - "Cost of Freedom". It will air on Jan. 8 2007 ( yes, it's actually on TV) TBS: 2:20am Jan 8 MBS: 1:35am Jan 8

Yeh, that is interesting. It's $39.99 US...I would go with that one. If it's just a reissue of the Animeigo release, I would just get it. It's cheaper and faster than hunting for the 1st pressing on Ebay.

Don't worry, they will be re-releasing a normal release of the Full-Burst parts version (no stand or extra stuff included).

Nope, the SV-51 never even had a name from the start. The name "Phoenix" most likely originated from the magazines. Unfortunately, the magazines came before the final product. The DVD liner notes and Kawamori Design Works book do not carry that same information so that name has been stricken from the record and is no longer considered canon. The VF-0 is named, "VF-0" or "Zero".

Hummm...so that's what I preordered....I like the boxart.

That is actually a translation error. UN Spacy uses a rough version of the modern US Army/Air Force and WWII Imperial Japan ranking system. http://macross.anime.net/story/encyclopedi...pacy/index.html Global's rank is brigadier general. However, he is the captain of a ship because that is his position. There is a note on the distinction between rank and position.

From TFW2005's forums. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=116823 Frenzy is a... stick figure.

Dalong.net has a few scans. He'll probably have more later. http://www.dalong.net/review/mg/m95/m95_i.htm From the looks of it, it doesn't appear to have any changes made to it since F91. So it's just a recolor version with no stand. Kinda like Titans-color Mk. II version 2.

Seems like someone really wants that project to move forward. Speaking of which, we haven't talked about the live-action Eva movie only because it hasn't gone anywhere since this time last year....

I tend to look at Nikki as the Hulk...That split personality is the source of her powers.

The Matt story I'm guessing is going to follow the Haitian guy (don't feel like looking for his name), which will lead him to the cheerleader, etc.... Nikki, D.L., and Micah's story does seems kinda odd.... They should try to bring their story closer to everyone else. And yes Hiro does need to learn how to control his powers. But the problem is, every time he jumps, his story changes, which makes his story really hard to keep track of.

At this point in time, seriously, you are wasting money. The quality of film was from the Animeigo-restored masters, so video is the same. Sub quality is about the same. Animeigo took artistic liberties in keeping some of the in-jokes from Egan (and hence the creators), but it's not something people are going to miss. My discs are fine (I think only 1 or 2 discs are cracking, but I've watched them a few times). But really, if you missed the Animeigo release, forget it. Just get the ADV release. It's cheaper (the one jenius posted) and you're getting the same thing. Don't bother wasting time and money on Ebay for it either. It's readily avaliable from ADV.

Considering M0 is only around in HK DVD or fansubs, I don't see how you can compare Animeigo's work to M0. There is no official copy of M0 out so I don't see how they could be compared (for that matter, there is no official version of DYRL?, as I take it you watched a version with Hurin's subtitle addon). Animeigo is a waste of time (perhaps money as well). ADV's release of the series is perfectly fine and is a good grab for anybody who missed the Animeigo release. The ADV release is readily avaliable, so don't waste time hunting for Animeigo's release.

He also wants full frontal nudity from the article.....

Just keeping the Transformers live-action movie talk to this thread instead of the super thread... Anybody's childhood raped enough yet?

Well, it's partially their fault for not going with EMS. You should only offer EMS for international shipments. Sending it normal priority (or SAL) is often dead slow. It travels to the nearest airport until it lands in the country of where it should be. From there, it travels via ground. SAL shipments are send in loads. If the post office doesn't have enough to make a full load, they will hold off on shipping it. This part could take up to 2 weeks. It will be sent within the 2 weeks/14 days from the time you mail it, but it does not necessarily have to go before then. Once it gets to the country of delivery, it will travel by ground. The buyer in Argentina should wait an additional 1-2 weeks before asking where their stuff is. The guy in Australia is probably going to be your problem. I have experienced this since I did order from HLJ.com and have it sent via SAL. It took just over 3 weeks for it to come. HLJ sent me the shipping notice and then a few weeks later, it showed up. I learned not to do that again.
