    I still have that poster on my wall.

    IMHO it fell into the same trap as most SW stuff---more homage than original thought. It followed too many things too closely. They weren't homages, they were flat-out copies.

    Will I have to leave the camera in the car?

    If I ever get out to the LA area, seeing the one remaining F-20 is at the top of my list of things to do.

    Big points for making it actually look like a *lion* and not just a generic big cat. Heck, half the Voltron stuff I see looks more like wolves or something.

    My vote goes to Gillian Anderson.

    If they'd have picked the YF-23 back when, the F136 would already be in-service...

    There ya go. PS--Miho is beating out Sally in M7? Surprising.

    Why not use your mod-powers and rectify the situation?

    Yup. Boeing likes raked wingtips-----the 764, 772LR, 773ER, 787, and 748 all have them instead of winglets. Boeing hasn't designed a plane with winglets since 1989. (though newer 737s almost all have them now, they are not part of the original 737NG design). Generally--they'll retrofit a winglet, but if starting from scratch they want to rake the tip. I figure it also can't be added later, or they'd have used the 764's tips to retrofit 762's and 763's.

    It's been a long time since I've seen an actual Skystriker--going from memory, I think many 1/48 decals would work?

    Gray and orange are kind of odd for house colors, but here's the first pax 747-800: (I refuse to call it 747-

    You forgot Roy's VF-0S.

    I posted that like, 10 posts ago--it's still on this page. Anyways---seems Takara's next 2 "Masterpiece Movie" figs will be Leader Sentinel Prime and Ironhide. Hmmmn. Price vs paint will certainly be a figure for which version to buy.
  15. David Hingtgen
    If only.

    It was obvious months ago they were going with "iconic art on box" Bastila, not "how she actually looks". I think that's mainly to placate the non-gaming fans, who have likely only ever seen that one pic that's always shown of her. I too much prefer the orangey-coral-pink version. (it's hard to describe that color)

    That struck me in the first second they showed it. Sure, she's probably learned a lot from Anakin---but Anakin can build working starships and droids from scrap...

    It's a Bioware game, so you know how the dialogue tree/choices work. Combat is more old-school quasi-turn driven, akin to KOTOR.
  19. David Hingtgen
    Looks to me like they angled/curved every button and switch in an attempt to look "cool" with no thought given to ergonomics.

    I just saw something mentioned but it's one of those things that's impossible to get good search results for: It seems that Takara-Tomy is going to re-release a ROTF Prime mold again? Will this be yet another Buster Prime or what? I missed out/waited too long and never got one, so if they're doing it again I'm very interested. (especially since I am so not impressed by DOTM Prime---dare we hope for an even better one in the future?)

    New "iconic" Storm Shadow is neat. Skystriker engines--weird. My money's on the guy just went to images.google.com and typed in "F-14", and didn't realize that F-14D engines won't work for an F-14A mold, but tried to scribe them in anyways.

    Technically POC, but it is so a 25th Ann Techno-Viper: http://www.theterrordrome.com/wp-content/gallery/toy-fair-2011/poc-techno-viper.jpg

    This could go in several threads, but I'll put it here. Future SDCC exclusive crossover. Skystriker re-release as Starscream with flightsuit Cobra Commander with Megatron as his pistol. Pic credit to http://GIJoeClub.com

    Future can be brushed on by hand to a smoother finish than many clear coats can be airbrushed. The difference is most noticeable when applied to a canopy or windshield.

    If that thumbnail was any bigger I'd consider it a fairly major spoiler.
