I don't know how anyone could want a *non-armored* VF-25 toy after this ep... Anyways, regarding Quarter and Battle 25----if Battle 25 is attached to Island 1, where does Quarter attach to? (Until people here started discussing it, I didn't think there was a Battle 25, and that the Quarter was in its place as "the main gunship attached to the front of the main colony dome ship")

Yup. You can easily find Region 2. (And the region 2 versions of season 1 and 2 have EVERY ep, FYI) We are really getting screwed here in the US. Season 3 for sale: http://www.forbiddenplanet.com/products/29...vd/Product.html

Found tons of new Classics(Universe)---just no Octane/Tankor, the only current one I want. I want the NEXT waves---Sideswipe, Bluestreak, Galvatron. PS---underside of Universe Silverbolt in jet mode: http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh187/PascTF/100_4465.jpg I like the B-2 on his gun though, but no way I'm paying that much for a minicon-level transformation. And for all those who thought he wasn't nearly as bad as movie SS undercarriage-wise: http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh187/PascTF/100_4466.jpg

The whole wing swings up, the outer half swings down. So it can do high-speed mode. (and transform). Kind of makes an "M" when viewed from the front. Also known as gull-wings.

The pic above is 1000x better IMHO. Honestly, the NSX is the ONLY Japanese car I've ever really thought looked cool. But the new one--not at all.

It's a half-year or more late at this point---while it came out months ago overseas.

Because it's COOL, and that's reason enough to do it. Why merely lower the flaps when you can get a bigger effect by raising the whole damn wing? PS---the F-8 is so sleek that even with a normal wing, that and the fact that it's the last of the gunfighters means it'd still merit being a "cool" plane.

The coolest planes aren't that well-known. Heck, even people who like fighter planes often know little about the F-8, and bomber people don't know the Vulcan. PS---Ace Combat 5 has the Vulcan in it.

I'm finding posts from January asking if it'll ever come out, and no word since then. I'm currently really doubting it'll ever come out---a LOT of the Buena Vista "90's toons on DVD" series have "stopped". I'd buy the R2 release, but I have no means to play it. (though I probably could just buy a really cheap DVD drive, set it to region 2, and leave it like that---but I really prefer watching stuff on my TV, not my PC) Season 3 has my 2 all-time fave eps, so having season 1 and 2 doesn't really help "satisfy" my desire for Tick episodes...

Awesome job, but I agree on the weirdness of requesting the 5 be changed to 45. For those not in the know, "45" is impossible for any runway to be numbered. But 5 is fine.

Will wait until full armor is announced. Or at the very least, normal FAST packs.

Pretty sure it's vintage. Sorta on-topic: Iran photoshopped their missile launch: http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/07/1...many/index.html

No comment needed:

The last couple years have proven to me that ANYTHING can be riced.

transfan52---you've been temp-banned before for flaming. And it was for a response to an old post last time too. Quit bringing up month-old discussions for the sake of arguing with someone.

Oh, Wraith. I don't really see how he's "robot-y". Thought the very-obviously-robotic BAT was the topic of discussion.

You mean the BAT? That's one of the best-known figures/characters. That's one of my most-wanted figs since I heard about the 25th line. (technically it's B.A.T. but few people use the periods) Anybody know of final/comparison pics for Dusty? Is he only in that DVD pack with Serpentor and the BAT? Because I'd prefer a red-mask BAT, and I do want Dusty, so I might just buy that pack instead of those 2 individually--but only if the DVD-pack Dusty is very "normal". (His face stripes look too "extreme" from that pic)

I'm still debating on encore OS. I mean, I had the original---but I frankly don't really remember him---despite his size. So maybe he wasn't that great? As opposed to Trypticon, which is the toy I want most of all from my childhood. Trypticon just ROCKS. (Metroplex is so inferior to Trpyticon it isn't even funny IMHO). But OS? I think I'll buy MP Megs instead. Unless somehow, OS is actually really cool, and I just couldn't appreciate him when I was 7... PS---Animated UM is PALE BLUE instead of WHITE? Deal-killer for me, sorry. That just screws up everything. Also, the "thumbs don't match the fingers" just looks stupid, as does the "not quite closing" flaps on the rear in vehicle mode. So close, yet "stupid little errors" crept in. I was almost going to buy him, but not for 40 bucks now. And the "likely Japanese version that's WHITE" will be too expensive to be worth it. Magnus=white and blue, not two-tone blue. BLURR is two-tone blue.

Another angle of the America: http://www.navytimes.com/xml/news/2008/06/...america_800.JPG

July 4th---nowhere seems to have gotten anything in just before or since. Also, my nearest Wal-Mart still has NO animated deluxe/voyager etc.

Any reason not to upgrade XP to SP3 now? I'd like to do so before I install Mass Effect. (Like everything, the first 48 hours after release caused issues----but are there any issues with a current version?) ::edit:: Well, running SP3 now, checking things out.

Ultraviolent?

I assume that due to anime magic (as in, you can easily control a full battroid well enough to make it play the piano while standing on one foot using little more than current airplane controls) having a WSO etc to operate radar/weapons would be unnecessary.

Hey, I like Leviathan a lot too. How about a review for that?

That's what I thought. Anyone else notice that the pill was type 639?
