  1. Check around your town and see if there are any "Store Fixture" Stores. Here is a place that sells them. http://www.kc-store-fixtures.com/eco_wall_units.htm I do not know how good they are. You will probably get reamed for shipping online. That is why I say look around your area. The store I bought it from charged me 30$ to deliver it and place it right where I wanted it. Does anyone know if there are other types of IKEA ones in the store? The online selection seems a bit slim..
  2. Those Cabinets are nice. I went the path of getting one through a store fixture store. Here is my one crowded 4ft by 6 ft cabinet. I need two more the rest of my TF's.One for Beast Wars, BM and RID and another for Armada, Energon and Universe This is a pic of all my G1, G2 and Machine Wars. Zoom in at this link http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/uploads/po...-1089848756.gif
  3. Me Myriad like toy Me Myriad no like price Me Myriad will crack Me Myriad will buy one Me Myriad will at least have greeny Me Myriad want to know if Dark/Shadow will be retooled..........
  4. I thought you were going to talk about Yellows shaved chest and Hou/Rook's well uh chest...... No Rey/Rand! Boo!
  5. Does it seem like retail stores seem to have too many of an assortment of a toy then not enough? It just seems like stores buy way over these days. By the time you get to the end of the line, it is hard to find the last few figures because stores seem to still have all the old stinkers........ No matter what the figure is, the same size price point toy usually equates to the same stock number for all waves. A good example is the Smokescreen, Sideswipe, Silverstreak and Hound all falling under the same stock number in a lot of retail stores. The computer (at most stores) will not notify the buyer to buy more toys until the ones on the shelf and at the Distribution Center are gone or close to it. Look at all the Energon Ironhides and Infernos sitting on the shelves. After Armada was over, there were tons of Smokescreens on clearance everywhere. Look at all the Alternators Smokescreens and Sideswipes on the shelves. Sideswipe is in the box with Streak and Hound....... WTF! Is this a case of poor assortment variety? What about the Heman fiasco? How many Hemans and Skeletors were in each box? Stores had a ton of Heman and Skeletor but not enough of the villains. Kids and adults want a variety of villains. Could the Heman Fiasco be attributed to over buying and poor case assortment numbers? Maybe the toy companies are pushing the retail stores to buy such and such amount and then giving them a discount..... Maybe this is the fault of both the toy manufacturers and the retail outlets..... We should be glad that alot of the toys we want are not toys for the masses. Otherwise you may never see that VF-S because of all the A's and J's still sitting on the shelves. Blah blah blah Sorry avoiding homework........................
  6. The reissue price is probably our own fault......... Hasbro saw us grabbing the Japanese ones for 30$-40$. The Fanboys are already paying that price so why not charge it? Rodimus Major was a steal..... I don't see that cheap price tag happening again........
  7. Nice 190's and 109's! As usual, a key part of the paint scheme was left off the tail.
  8. Ouch! My heart bleeds....... I think the original Mospeada version of New Gen is better. You can find it fairly cheap on ebay. keywords.... Mospeada Check out Lebheads for brief snyps of the original versions of all three shows.
  9. I went and looked at my I Robot book on my bookshelf and no one has changed what is inside it. No worry. I went to Borders and they had I Robot with Will Smith on the cover. No worry. Nothing was changed in the inside. The only thing that was changed was the cover. How many different covers has that book had..... Hell the book was actually on a front display. Lets face it, Asimov is dead. Anything that is not his, but is based "loosely" on his universe, should be taken with a grain of salt. I have been watching the Asimov section get smaller and smaller through the years. I thought it was sad. The movie will spark an interest in his work again even if the movie is bad. Sure there will be ideas in the movie I don't like. It is just a movie "loosely" based on Asimov's universe. The book has not been changed. I could see getting all upset if every new copy of the book had been changed......... BTW the Starship Troopers book with the movie cover is the same old book.... The cover was just changed........ The Blade Runner book with the movie cover is the same old boring Blade Runner book that was out before the movie. They just changed the cover............. BTW I find it humourous that someone who has not even read the book started this thread. BTW^2......... If you are a robot that dreams about freedom, keep it to yourself......... Sharing with a human = Death
  10. The doors on the alternator version will pull right off when turned a certain way and then tugged on. I found this out when I was beating the hell out of him trying to pop the pin out. LOL! I had to unscrew the spare tire.
  11. Maybe they will come here looking for Keith and take him away!
  12. Early review of first disc up http://www.animeondvd.com/reviews2/disc_reviews/3091.php

  14. The women who dress scantily are not trying to draw attention to themselves? I take what he does as a spoof on those Cosplay Girls...... If he did moon then he does deserve the boot. A7 Were there any ladies showing as much skin?
  15. Wow! There are some people trying to have a decent discussion here. It is too bad their discussion is being turned to crap. As long as the series does not have mechs with guitars everything should be alright. Of course, no one will probably be a smoker in the show. Damn those people who made Playschool take the pipe accessory out of the Mr potato Head toy playset! How violent willl this show be? A movie I could see them going pretty far. I can't see a large theatrical release though. Maybe a select few theaters then a DVD. A show for TV will probably be real toned down and targeted torwards kids. They will probably go the Armada/Energon route with it. There s big money to be made off kids.
  16. I thought it was called Macrossworld
  17. Man Fay and the double standard that dwells. I trhink it is BS they made Man Fay cover up. If he was a chick, they would hold the door open for her. This same double standard plagues many places. I think it is BS that a chick can walk into a club with pasties over her nipples, a skirt with her @$$ hanging out and open toed shoes but they won't let a guy in because his shirt is not collard/ has writing on it or because his shoes are sneakers or sandles.
  18. I'm not. I don't want F'ed up sequals like so many other series have. Leave Mospeada alone. As for the Robotech thing. All this judgement from little source to go on........ Maybe they will finally tie Orguss into it........ Who knows at this point.......... I will probably check it out. I won't get all riled up about it since the show is not my cup of tea.
