    I still say go by the listing I provided for Graham: Did you play video games in the late 80's/early-mid 90's, especially Zelda? Have you played Guitar Hero or any fighting game?

    I must repost someone else's post: "It would have been cool if the movie advertising was a fake movie trailer of a Lucas Lee film and at the end of the trailer Lucas Lee comes out of his movie character looks at the screen and says "I'm coming for you Scott Pilgrim" and the ad ends with the Scott Pilgrim vs. the world logo." Following up on that thought---you know how a lot of movies now have multiple posters to display side-by-side for multi-screen showings? Well, they should have had theaters put up a Lucas Lee movie poster next to Scott Pilgrim. Nigh-viral marketing.

    Soundwave is also in boombox mode right at the start of the fight--that's how he's hiding. (and it actually kind of works)--a big truck in the corner of the room would be obvious.

    Mylene sings Sheryl or Ranka...

    Gah! Now that you said Wheelie, I can't un-see it!

    Seeing as how there's already several dozen posts about it in the main TF thread, I don't think we need a new, separate thread.

    That would be Shaak Ti, whom Ahsoka is at least "inspired by". (being the first and so far AFAIK only Togruta seen on-screen) http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Shaak_Ti

    Am I the only one that thinks that car mode looks "off"? I mean, I've seen the movie a zillion times, and own the G1 reissue so I have a pretty good mental image of how it "should" look I think. http://twitpic.com/2iyxuo/full (can't embed)

    I thought it was the "Hot Rod" face.

    Ok, *now* I'm convinced. And of course, now I'm hoping for a US release without the trailer, which would cut the cost down to like 40% of the JP Rodimus price... PS--I do not like the toon-accurate flame deco, with the black outlines. PPS---I was hoping the big gap ahead of the spoiler in winnebago mode would be reduced/eliminated. Surely they can devise something better, for a Masterpiece? I've never seen a "gaping hole" like that in any previous MP alt mode.

    "I'm Commander Secura, and this is my favorite episode of the season".

    So why can't the thing hover very well yet? I think this "more power" PR war is covering up a "trying to hide how fat it is" campaign...

    Is 155mph an electronic limit? Seems low for that amount of power/weight. (considering that my car will do 154)

    I keep thinking this entire thread is like an extended version of this page: http://www.therossman.com/digest/80stv/2.html

    Better than a Sovereign? Dang. I wouldn't be surprised at it being better than a Galaxy though--at least, a Lakota-spec DS9-era Excelsior Refit should be, based on the upgrades stated/presumed in DS9.

    Nothing grossly wrong from what I see, but I do think the front half of the engineering hull is too fat/stocky from most angles. Neck looks "off" to me---I think it's too vertical overall. The intersection of the neck/saucer seems to be missing the big gap/indentation, but pretty much EVERYWHERE misses that. Drawings, CG, Ertl. I think only the studio model has it. Planetary sensor array too long up front---I really think they copied the Ertl kit for that. Nacelles seem a bit fat, horizontally, IMHO.
  17. David Hingtgen
    Got pics? I know the Excelsior very well. (nothing like spending weeks building kits of them to really learn their shapes--same is true for planes)
  18. David Hingtgen
    Or even better, the original game came on a dozen or so 3.5in disks...
  19. David Hingtgen
    Is there any actual info on it besides price? I mean, for 1200 bucks--is it 3 feet tall? Does it light up in 20 different places? Did Peter Cullen sign the box?
  20. David Hingtgen
    Transformers aren't in scale with themselves, that's the core problem.
  21. David Hingtgen
    Doesn't change the fact that it shouldn't have been left out in the first place.
  22. David Hingtgen
    Being "stuck" in attack combos/animations is my biggest gripe. You really have to kind of "stop and let go" if anyone approaches from behind. But it works so rarely/slowly it's usually better to just keep on punching, take the guy out, and take the hit from the guy behind. In the long run, that's the better option.
  23. David Hingtgen
    Excelsior shouldn't be DLC. That'd be like making the A-wing or B-wing DLC. It's not the utterly most famous "star" of any series/ep, but it sure as heck is one of the bastions of the franchise, ship-wise.
  24. David Hingtgen
    All the VF-27's seen so far are from Antares squadron. Brera's callsign is "Antares 1".
  25. David Hingtgen
    Anyone here have/getting the CrossFire Bruticus add-ons? (I'm still waiting/hoping for a repaint to match the original Energon release)
