    It used the Diablo chassis, too? I thought it was just the drivetrain.

    ??? I can think of US female F-16, F-15E, F-18, and F-14 pilots. I don't recall a female F-14 pilot in combat, but a RIO for sure. I know VFA-105's current commander is female, and has personally lead low-level strikes into Afghanistan. Both of the current female Thunderbird pilots have seen combat IIRC, one in the F-15E, one in the F-16C. And there's the famous F-16C squadron at Eielson, which had so many female pilots they could do entire missions all-female. And while not technically a *fighter* plane---need I even mention KC "Killer Chick", possibly the most famous A-10 pilot of all? ::edit:: Or just go here: http://userpages.aug.com/captbarb/news.html

    No Tomcat=not a good movie. Seriously, Top Gun 2 should have been made like 1990 or so, when the F-14B was in service. Quick and easy explanation to the audience--"It's just like the original F-14, but with 40% MORE POWER".

    Vector W-8 (Countach rival) was ok, but I very much liked the Diablo-rival Vector W-12.

    Well, it's just that Animated Lugnut is the original*/definitive version. And he was teal and purple. Takara's is teal and purple. Hasbro's isn't. *please don't bring up some obscure G1-UK-comic-only character etc. The character of Lugnut is from Animated, just like Barricade is from the 07 movie, regardless of previous name uses.

    Nov 29, last I heard.

    Takara version of Lugnut looks SO much better than Hasbro's.

    Ok, so from what I gather from various threads, Klan's is overall purple-blue (would be an awesome color for Grace, but oh well). Who has the very Milia-esque one---Ranka? (guessing from a screen shot)

    Two very different versions of the same story? 7 is just 7, Plus is really just the full and the edited version. Only DYRL really offers a version to "compare and contrast" with the original. It is VERY different in some segments.

    Do just the 0D. I think Bandai would have more success doing "the valks you can't get otherwise" rather than "yet more valks you already own in 1/55, 1/48, 1/60, and 1/72..." (exceptions for stuff like the -19S of course, where they have greatly improved upon previous offerings)

    It's simple, use the same methodology as I have since season one: You will know from the previews if it's a Jar-Jar or Padme-centric ep. If it is, skip it. Of course, now you can pretty much add Satine to the list.

    Try the big "Trial Frontier" thread in the Games section: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=33557 Checking around--it seems that you can't.

    Hey, they're better than Playmates did with the new Trek stuff---you really can't tell a 1989 Playmates figure from a 2009 Playmates figure...

    Like the 1/60 VF-1, it's best to kind of "twist" the missiles on and off. Snapping them straight down (or straight up, when removing) does apply the most stress.

    Macross Plus isn't discussed much because it's universally praised. People post about what they hate--see Macross 7. People like to argue---if everyone agrees, not much is said. Plus is great, and everyone agrees with that.
  17. David Hingtgen
    That better have been a joke post.

    On jacks with the gear up, it looks like it's hovering.

    A bit late, but editing big spoiler.

    V4 KOS-MOS sucks. All others are better, the original is the best. I'm even more bitter because V4 is intentionally just copying V1 (it's a plot-point). Only it's like a cheap cosplay, rather than an upgrade.

    Foggy how? There's many ways to fix canopies.

    Episode was interesting, if a bit slow. (though that's been the main complaint since day 1). Episode could have been half as long.

    Re: MS security essentials. I don't know if it's good or bad, having your anti-virus by the same company who makes the programs (and holes) which most viruses tend to exploit.
  24. David Hingtgen
    Sherly? Surely.

    Sure, Mylene's not THE main character, but neither are Sheryl and Ranka. I agree with Emilia, but Mylene is far too important to be touted as evidence for "descendants are background characters".
