    But Superman easily could have saved him. It’s still a terrible scene 

    He could but the point was not to reveal he's not a normal human being. Doing so would risked what his parents have been doing since finding Clark. 

    They could have explored Jonathan's death a different way.

    And then the dog Pa Kent was holding escapes the tornado, demonstrating that Pa Kent had plenty of time to escape without the aid of superpowers anyways. The entire movie is full of crap like that.

     

    He wasn't holding the dog. It was scared to go out of a car. During the process, a vehicle was thrown close to them but crushes his leg. He was able to let the dog out of the car but he had a hard time getting out. By the time he was out, he couldn't really run given the condition of his leg.

    Is this really what the metal build infinity was meant to be?

     

    Employee pitch: we'll call it metal build infinity because we'll try to release infinity backpacks for the Strike.

    Bandai exec: I like it!

    Why don’t you want to give us a Metal Build Skygrapser Bandai? WHY???

    That'll be for the 100th year SEED anniversary and will coincide with the 25th repaint of the Strike Gundam.

    Well, Hot Toys set an awfully high bar to clear...

    I mean they did back then to their credit. Their stuff is years old compared to this new one from Queen Studios. I'd say though Hot Toys still couldn't get the likeness down in their last attempt which was the 1/4 scale and that should have been easier given the larger size.

    Queen Studio's Joker borders the customized following and the price reflects it. While the seamless wrists look good, I do wonder if the tradeoff of not having articulated wrists is worth it.

    The question will be if production pieces can match the quality of this prototype especially with the headsculpt and rooted hair.

    Wow! Two 1/6 Batmobiles announcement? :shok:

    So it's a question of whose release is going to be superior between Hot Toys and Jazzinc, right? And it looks like Jazzinc is weathered and has more features than Hot Toys.

    Jazzinc will offer weathered and non-weathered. Hot Toys is only a tease so far and they're known for teasing products and not following through just to scare the competition. Hot Toys can be quite petty if you know more about them. Jazzinc is farther along in development as they have a working prototype and will most likely release earlier as well.

    Nice. Who makes this one?

    Jazzinc. Expect it to be around $1500 without shipping and this will come from Netherlands.

    Product details: 

    “I am vengeance.”

     

    Introducing The 2022 Batmobile, an iteration of the Dark Knight’s ride that’s unlike anything we’ve seen before. And just like the titular hero himself, the 2022 Batmobile is also menacing, intimidating and muscular. Almost immediately upon the film’s release, The Batman car definitely qualified as a truly iconic vehicle worthy of awe and appreciation, if you’re a fan, and fear and trepidation, if you’re a supervillain.

     

    Jazzinc is proud to introduce the licensed 2022 Batmobile in Deluxe ⅙ Scale with every detail replicated according to the schematics as specified by director Matt Reeves. From the interior lights, to the V8 engine, to the OMP steering wheel, every aspect is accurate, every detail carefully considered and developed.

     

    The Jazzinc 2022 Batmobile features rumbling motor sound effects, an emitting smoke exhaust, a remote control and an universal power supply. Weighing in at 14 kg (30.8 lbs) and measuring at 905 x 431 x 247 mm (35.6 x 17 x 9.7 inches), this deluxe collectible will practically transform any display space into the Batcave.

     

    The 2022 Batmobile Includes:

    Light-up Display

    Light-up Headlights & Taillights

    Working Smoke Exhaust

    Rumbling Motor SFX

    Remote Control Operated

    Universal Power Supply

    100% Accurate Detailing

     

    Measurements: 905 x 431 x 247 mm (35.6 x 17 x 9.7 inches) 14 kg (30.8 lbs)

     

    I don't know what working exhaust means but I'm assuming just some lights emitting from within mimicking light from a flame. I can't imagine fake smoke coming out of it.

    I hope the Metal Build line steers clear of SEED, 00, and Crossbone UC timelines...  We've had enough already.. MOVE ON! 

    I would like them to at least release Infinity Justice, all inclusive Akatsuki version, Providence, and Legend THEN they can either drop the line or continue doing garish Astray variants that people continue to buy. 

    I want them to complete Wing as well but at the speed they're releasing and focusing on variants, I may have quit this hobby entirely or the last of Wing or SEED fans don't care to spend money on toys anymore. I would say time is ticking against Bandai as well when both series become completely irrelevant.

    I don’t think I understand the thinking for the two options. I understand that Bandai wants to give people the chance of owning the Red Dragon without buying the new Astray Red Frame as well but why doesn’t the set include the parts you need to make it one? Like the additional pods on the legs. And why not include the Neo Caletvwlch blades but the attachment pieces for the regular Caletvwlchs (that come with a version of said pieces). 
    I’m confused :unknw:

    Because... Bandai?

    That's not the Chief's voice, Cortana's supposed to be blue, and the whole "upgradeable and controllable" thing doesn't sit quite right with me.

    Also, since when did the Covenant have Humans in it?

    Problem with Halo is a lot of the needed information comes from the books. I felt there are details in the game that needed to be read on to get a background of it. At some point, Halsey was working with the Covenant so I wouldn't be surprised if that's been the case even earlier on since I haven't read any of the books.
