    I started the anime and the title is misleading; no one is chillin'…

    That is a striking color scheme. I’m in.

    Maybe you get the Nadleeh as a base unit/regular release and the Virtue as a TWE add on set.

    It is a shame that the Dynames Repair III came out first. No all I’m thinking is why the Dynames didn’t get a unique mold.

    So TotK is the KotoR 2 to KotoR? I still need to finish Live a Live, before I can start TotK. That last chapter is really dragging its feet.

    I think the only exciting toy reveal was FoC Cliffjumper. More exciting were the sneak peaks: Strongarm and Shadow Striker. I wonder why they haven’t shown Prine Dreadwind yet. Seems like an easy prototype to create.

    If found a couple of SNES games while visiting flea markets and specialty shops. Nothing too exiting but I rented those games as a kid so I’m glad I have them in my collection. No box or manual and some or the cartridges are in a rough shape. But they all work and fit perfectly in my collection.

    There are several replacement tutorials on YouTube. IIRC they are not too difficult to replace. I bought my Switch in 2017 and I have never experienced the Joy-Con drift myself but I’m not a power user. As @azrael said sooner or later you will have this issue since Nintendo can’t or won’t fix the issue. Don't let this discourage you from buying one though. It is a fantastic system with a fantastic games library, especially if you play on the go. Probably my favorite console since the SNES. Just buy a Pro Controller if you are planning to play the Switch while it’s connected to a TV.

    I built the new Tie Interceptor yesterday. And I’m a very happy camper right now. I was most impressed with the size and how well it goes with the Solo movie Tie Fighter. What I don’t like is the fact that I had to buy a second space ship I have no attachment to… and at least the A-Wing from the Tie Advanced was a fully formed space ship. Also not a big fan of the gap between the wing struts and the cockpit. I think with another iteration of the design they could have got rid of it and made the cockpit more round. I also don’t like that the lasers of the wing tips aren’t angled to a bore-sight point. In fact due to the tension in the wings the laser point outwards. I think this to could have been fixed but maybe I’m expecting too much from it. Overall the positive sides and its very existence massively outweighs the few issues I have with the toy. Only a couple more vehicles and my Lego Star Wars collection is finished.

    For a second I was worried that this would be another Strike Gundam flyer set that is not the Skygrasper.

    Sadly the Falcon Armor is not the same quality as the Mega Man X one. I still super bummed that Truforce never did other armor designs or the robot masters. Could you imagine a Storm Eagle with the same intricate design, build and paint as Mega Man? It would be sooo good. I’m also bummed that I never picked up the black version of X when it was reasonably priced.

    Seeing that the Shin Burning Gundam gets a kit makes me hopeful that the Build Fighters shows and designs have had some impact on the Gundam fandom (since they are my favorite Gundam show and have the best Gundam designs). I wonder how long I have to wait for a full Metal Build Build Fighters lineup.

    I have seen some lukewarm reactions to the Ninjago City Market. I can see where they are coming from with the empty space in the middle but I think it will look stunning combined with the the other big Ninjago City sets.

    Because gas mask Bumblebee is the face of the Transformers brand. How would people know that this is a movie in their beloved franchise if not muffler face is on the poster??? Also you need to keep in mind that the movies need to keep Lorenzo di Boneventura's personal head cannon straight so they can never change this pillar of the franchise!!!

    I bought the Tie Interceptor and the Endor Speeder Chase diorama with some of the May 4th discounts. I really need to get a couple more Speeder Bikes and Scout Troopers from the set. I there a good option to just buy the Speeder Bike on Bricklink?

    Titan Class Nemesis revealed Odd arm proportions are still odd. More images: https://news.tfw2005.com/2023/05/02/legacy-evolution-titan-nemesis-official-reveal-481854

    I think that was fake. Not sure but someone mentioned it was photoshopped IIRC.

    Yeah, Bandai works in mysterious ways. They could put out the Providence instead. The only thing that is scheduled that excites me is the Dynames.

    Jang's thoughts on the Tie Interceptor:
  23. Scyla
    I find it sad that Bandai seems to be slacking off with the Metal Build line. First no new deco for the Strike Rouge with Grand Slam and now no new weapons for the X1 Patchwork (I’m not allowing to count the effect parts).

    The Crossbone Gundam X1 Patchwork is available at Anime-Export for preorder: https://www.anime-export.com/index.php?product=67869

    Thank goodness, not another Metal Build announcement.
