    I'm not usually a fan of mashups or dubstep (even the melodic kind), but this one is great:

    From a bonifide member of the Mio Akiyama fan club: I prefer this one with just Mio on vocals.

    Something in line with Black Valkyrie's suggestion: If Streets of Rage 4 had an option for a custom soundtrack, I'd definitely put this one on.

    I can almost see the Taco Bell promotions now.

    Yeah, he still has unsavory attitude towards the F-16. Well, per this website: Lt. Col. Pat "Gums" McAdoo, USAF Ret., one of the first F-16 pilots at Hill AFB, recalls the origin of the name "F-16 Viper": Even when F-16 Fighting Falcon became the official name, Viper stuck around and became the unofficial nickname for the F-16. The name "Viper" is even officially used for the Joe Bill Dreyden "Semper Viper" award, which is awarded for excellent airmanship by F-16 pilots.

    My USAF mechanic buddy just called them lawn darts.

    Well shoot, that tells you how long I've been out of the TF loop. Time for some window shopping.

    I'm holding off on this MP, but I'd be all-in for a Sunstreaker in police colors.

    Taking a closer look, I think it's the Max Factory Max Gokin Big O.

    This was a pleasant surprise. The WANDER ARTS figure line is back on track. Grille Sechs in Centipede color scheme and in urban camo (Front Mission 3): Kyojun in Glen's Special and urban camo schemes (Front Mission 5): Frost in red Hell's Wall and urban camo (Front Mission 1): I had thought this line was dead after HLJ cancelled my preorders. HLJ and even AmiAmi went on to say that after the first figure with its two variants was released, the rest of the line was cancelled by Square Enix.

    Whaaat? So we can't have a cross dressing rabbit that shoots audience members for coughing at his piano recital anymore? Lame.

    Some interesting insight into the redesigning of Blaze and Adam for Streets of Rage 4. I'm kinda irked about Axel looking like a hobo that likes grunge, but I'm still gonna play the hell out of this game.
  13. Valkyrie Hunter D
    The Big O. Kinda like a mix of Batman and Giant Robo.

    This guy just took Gunpla to new level.

    After quite a bit of searching, I found the rest of the gang: Was it worth the wait? Yes. A resizing of an already beefy design on Defensor sounded sublime, especially after missing out on the original Maketoys release. It's also very stable in a low stance: Major joints like the shoulders, hips, and knees have solid ratchets on them. However, the elbow joints cannot support the massive gun with a bent arm, it's just too heavy. Just a couple of complaints come to mind. Yes Model was all too faithful in resizing Guardia; they didn't even bother to give Katana rolling rear wheels, just molded-in tires. Yes Model could have also made an improvement by finding a way for the gestalt's head to actually face different directions. The head is on a ball joint, but is caged to face forward by the ladder base assembly. And then there's the presence of fake screws scribed into Vulcan's hip joints. I reckon the original Guardia had real screws there, but Yes Model decided to leave them out to save costs. But why scribe the look of having screws there? Why not just smooth the surface out? It just seems odd. So yeah, not a lot of complaints from me. It's a great IDW-esque combiner made out of four Deluxe-sized limbs and a Voyager class torso. Anyhoo, I'm glad Yes Model went all the way through to complete the team-I had strong doubts about that. I highly recommend their KO.

    Yes-Model's oversize KO of Maketoys' Vulcan finally arrived for me this week: I wish I could at least provide a pic of its fully combined mode, but the limb bots are at another location. Regardless, it looks good and feels solid so far. The printed instructions are absolute crap, so thank goodness there are transformation videos already out there. I'll post a few pics once I go home and grab the other not-Protectobots.

    I only have one That mix works quite well! I have only one set of the Aoshima Dropship/APC combo-I regret not buying more. I can't believe it was 15 years ago, but I did a mini review of of that Airwolf.
  18. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Very interesting indeed. I'll probably get one for my Saturn as I am still not happy with its emulation.
  19. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Yes! Perfect RC-like controls for a giant super robot. You just had to move your main character so they could see if their mech was close enough for melee combat. The Red Baron over there particularly reminds me of the RAD mech that transforms into a land vehicle of some sort.
  20. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Seeing the trailer with the blocky mecha made reminisce of R.A.D. for ye olde Playstation 2.
  21. Valkyrie Hunter D
    I haven't played it in a while, but I remember Android Assault/Bari-Arm being a fun shooter and one that isn't terribly difficult. It has a Thunderforce III type of feel to it, if that helps. Definitely worth a try.
  22. Valkyrie Hunter D
    I would be more receptive to these if they had at least given them different face sculpts.
  23. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Despite their Ride Armors breaking, Sentinel and their Riobots have a pretty good batting average in my book. So chances are high that their Legioss will be of good quality. Personally, I'm excited about the red one.
  24. Valkyrie Hunter D
    As a forever fan of Wakko, I have to say that those are some awfully big shoes to fill.
  25. Valkyrie Hunter D
    That must've taken forever to make. Could we ask for a Res Comet Zaku and Lady Gaga follow up?
