  1. Yeah that's all well and good, except for the immutable fact that: Maybe Artmic had something else in mind when they designed the Ride Armor, but the show is pretty clear on this. Hell, even the transformation line art shows the forearm armor just sort of....appearing on the riders arms, by sheer force of will. And people who are worried about losing parts for their toys need to pick their stuff up off the carpet before mommy vacuums. You've been told I don't know how many times about this, don't make me say it again.
  2. Why the hell would anyone want to reconnect the struts to the ride armor in the first place? In the anime they completely disappear during the transformation, so what are you gaining by doing this?
  3. No, I'm going to go ahead and disagree. To argue that fictional undead creatures can only be portrayed in one particular fashion is juvenile at best.
  4. Uh....I'm not even sure how to reply to that.
  5. I just hope they don't go overboard with "teh CGI" on the Gunstar. That would totally ruin the spirit of the first movie...you know, with the models and all.
  6. Only on MW would a positive review (8 out of 10, IIRC) lead people to cancel their preorders.
  7. http://www.cinemablend.com/new.php?id=7990 Ok, so...is there really a demand for this? Are there legions of fans on laststarfighterfan.org (or dare I suggest...Starfighter World?) clamouring for a sequel? I mean...it was an amusing enough film in its day, but one that's certainly aged poorly in ways that don't only include its special effects.
  8. All I'm going to say is this: If the Beagle design gets canned in favor of the sure-to-be-craptacular Toynami version, I will drink George Sohn's milkshake! Drink it up!
  9. Sonuva.... So let me ask you, Macross World; Deal, or No Deal?
  10. I gotta say, DA...finally seeing a picture of your namesake is really disappointing. Worst Super Robot Ever?
  11. We should support any and all Toynami/MegaHouse and Toynami/Beagle "Cyclones" because it might mean they'll produce the Beta.
  12. Maybe if we just ignore this news, the whole thing will go away. That worked for the longest time on the DragonBall movie. Treat it like a T-Rex in Jurassic Park: It can't see you if you don't move.
  13. Something stinks here. This means that Toynami is potentially looking at no less than Three different "cyclones" toys? Megahouse, Beagle and their own vaporware MPC?
  14. Well there is this awesome ratty old couch that I inherited, out in my front porch, that I've just been dying to take pics of. Maybe I'll pose some of my single action revolvers on it, for sort of an "antique" motif.
  15. Damn fine at giving me a headache. I'm not susceptible to motion sickness, and can play FPS's until my hands cramp into tiny little talons of hurt, with no ill effects. But 5 minutes on the Virtual Boy made me feel like a Sykes Fairburn had been shoved into each eye socket.
  16. The scene in EXO's Akira (2008) where Kaneda & his gang go to Frank & Sons completely took me out of the movie. Way to rape my childhood...er, adolescence, EXO.
  17. As I implied HERE the version of the story I'd read said just such a thing WAS HAPPENING. At which point, you have to wonder why they'd even use an ethnic name like Akira in the first place? Why not something completely milquetoasty-anglo like "Alan?"
  18. Everything we thought we knew about the development of veritech mecha = out the window. The Robotech RPG Blogsphere will be on fire tonight. Every Robowiki in eistance will need immediate updating in light of this.* *if you completely ignore just how out of place and downright archaic a mecha like the "condor" would be in Robotech in the first place.
  19. Make fun all you want. I for one am VERY interested as to how this Major Find affects the Early vs Late Return debate.
  20. Three cheers for incidental throwaway designs never intended for more than 2 second's worth of scrutiny!
  21. Then I can disappoint you with two words: New Manhattan.
  22. It would have been in about 1987 when I got my copy of Robotech Art and learned the shocking truth. I'd built the "macross" model kits beforehand, including one or two from the movie (without understanding why the mecha and uniforms all looked so different) but reading the whole story blew me away. To my 13 year old mind, it must have been a shocking revelation on par with the end of Sixth Sense.
  23. "You fought in the Format Wars?" "Yes, I was once a HD DVD fanboy, the same as your father. Now the HD DVD is all but extinct." 'Bout damn time one side or the other lost. Now I can think about upgrading to Hi Def.
  24. After looking at some publicity stills, I'd say it was a Browning M2 .50 cal, slightly redressed to resemble some sort of ComBloc piece.
  25. Has Toynami ever confirmed the release date in the first place?
