  1. Schweet. They even managed to get a wheel on his back in bot mode.
  2. If you want a Devastator that will tower over your deluxe figures, it might be for you. Hercules is quite sturdy and I have no problem manhandling mine. However, I still prefer Maketoys' Giant. He may not be as tall as Herc, but the individual bot modes of each limb are generally more articulate and look better than Herc's counterparts imho. And by a slight margin, Giant's combined mode looks better to me.
  3. This is reassuring. It's been getting fairly good reviews on various sites too.
  4. Please don't suck, please don't suck... Did anyone else see the gameplay footage of X for the Wii U? (X footage at around the 35:00 mark) Combat is defnitely Xenoblade-ish.
  5. I'll be throwing a fit if Sherlock wins out.
  6. Finally some pics of Roadbuster, and it looks like a new sculpt too!
  7. Yeah, it was the same for me, but I never thought about taking a recording of it. I should have, considering how rarely I saw the machine. Well, not EVERY stage, he biffs it on 2-2 and later on, but I never knew you could "bump" your way through the statues on the Mandara boss! Those things always drove me nuts.
  8. FIRE IT UP! FIRE IT UP! I really want one, but I'm kinda dubious of the durability of that leathery material.
  9. I have always had a deep distaste over that Robocop game ever since my childhood 7-11 store replaced the SHINOBI machine with it. SHINOBI was soo much better... I only saw this game twice during my youth in all the arcades I've ever been to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_LY94PmqmA I remember thinking it was the bestest game ever. Now that I got it to finally work on MAME, it almost brings a nostalgic tear to my eye when I boot it up.
  10. Not too shabby, I'm really liking the helmet. Is this a voyager or leader class size?
  11. Nice, it's official!
  12. Yup, the 770. I haven't run any games on it yet, but I am setting my sights on Titanfall to be the first one. And it was reassuring to find out that demos for Titanfall were using the 770 card. I'm also waiting for GTA V (It'll happen!). For now I'm just getting all my emulators up and running from my old computer. How does it measure up? I really don't know, I mean I haven't really ran anything that can showcase its specs. Numbers-wise, it's got a i7-4800MQ @ 2.7GHz, 16GB RAM, and the GTX 770M card. So yeah, I haven't really seen anything from this thing that blows me away, however, it is SOOO good to finally play Asura Blade in such a smooth and silky fashion on MAME.
  13. I thought I was done with valks after getting a 1/48 Strike Hikaru VF-1S, but then the ver. 2 1/60s came out, then the 1/60 Mac Plus valks showed up, and more recently the VF-4G. Mac Frontier valks never got my love, so after getting the VF-4G, I would been perfectly happy with not getting anymore valks...then the new YF-19 was announced. It's a downward spiral, but it's a great ride.
  14. I reckon the warranty is still good, I haven't altered anything, I just opened up some covers and re-seated a memory module. I'll have to read the fine print to make sure.
  15. My Sager arrived last night. Imagine my disappointment when I saw a blue screen of death greeting me as my brand new computer's first output message. Further horror ensued as it kept restarting itself with every attempt to at least make it to the desktop. Before calling the company and berating the first QA rep that I made contact with, and after an hour of deciding whether I should just toss the sucker off my balcony, I took it apart to see if anything was amiss. Lo and behold, a memory module has been dislodged during shipping. Once the module was properly seated, the laptop worked as it should and everything was right with the world. Now the wait begins for Titanfall...
  16. I can only wonder if Arcadia will foray into more glorious 1/24 Patlabor goodness. I would love a 1/24 AV-X0.
  17. Weird, it was the complete opposite for me, I gave up my pre-order for this to get the YF-19! It has been just a perfect storm of expenses recently and I had to give up some things. The Ghost does look nice though, it reminds me a lot of the Gespent from SRW.
  18. It seems like Arcadia is just carrying out previous Yamato plans. It was already rumored that a VF-0D was in the works before Yamato closed doors. Maybe the VF-0D was close to completion and Arcadia is simply taking the ball and running with it.
  19. The big toys A7 brought up were not from the Arch Enemy line; they were almost a foot tall. The Arch Enemy line toys were approximately 7 inches tall, but I'm not if they were US exclusive.
  20. IIRC, "transforming" was the buzz word Bandai used on the packaging for that thing.
  21. I still have those around here somewhere. Sturdy bastards, huge too. The Sazabi is my fave though; you can totally man handle it unlike the MG. I miss the days when Gundam can be found at the local TRU.
  22. Many thanks for the heads up, dwc, but I ended up ordering a Sager NP8275 last night. I'm happy with the specs, and I'm pretty sure it'll handle anything I throw at it. Can't wait to mess with it!
  23. Yeah, it's absolutely ridiculous considering the average valk is only 10 inches long. Back on topic: hells yes I'm down for a delta winged valk, assuming it IS a VF-0D. Everybody wants the D!
