    Also.. I love that Walt finally learned to roll a goddam barrel. hahaha. Anybody else notice you can see his pants from the first episode on the ground as he rolled past?

    Interesting news on MP-10 release. Only 800 units were made. With the YOTH release (which will probably be a TRU Asia exclusive) they are probably going to retire that mold soon. (Lots of use to do the renewals) Also heard a rumor that this new version of MP-10 will have improvements over the old version, but that's unconfirmed. Also hear that TRU is trying to corner the market for MP's, which could mean prices will go up across the board, less room for shops state-side to make a profit. Yeah that's two big reasons I had no interest in this toy. Too big, and the only decent mode was Robot mode. The other modes are a joke. The plastic looks super cheap too. I'll stick with my complete G1 from my childhood

    I think Skyler knew too. She said "I'm sorry". But I think there was a lot of truth in what he was saying... he was using his anger to sell it, like all his best lies. He's going down this road alone. That was the most brutal and uncompromising hour of TV i've ever seen. And the Darkest. Best. Show. Ever.

    I was going to post that earlier! haha. I loooooooooove that thing. Wish I could buy one.

    Always wanted a 1d.. but at this point... there are very few releases I'd pay more than 150 for. Arcadia got my back.

    That's another thing I love about buying from a domestic seller. I don't have to sign for the package when they ship it to my house. Such an annoying waste of time.

    I really enjoyed it. Nice slow pace. Like a good short story. The last 5 min were kind of lame. I'd rather there have been a larger death toll, but whatever. It was worth the money.

    I'll watch. Hope it doesn't suck haha

    I saw one on NY for less than 40,000 a few weeks back. Don't know how much it sold for, but yeah I think prices will keep dropping as arcadia starts releasing more stuff.

    Funny they can know all those languages.. yet they can't fooking combine a shipment.

    Yeah, that's not it at all. If you've followed the drama of MP buying with BBTS in the last year and half you'd know why he does it that way. Places like BBTS will put up PO's 8 months early (Wheeljack and BB) just to fill orders and then they just let the price flux up and down as they get information. Lots of people have gotten pissed off at the prices jumping... especially when MP-13 jumped like $100 bucks back in March. I remembered some guy cancelled all of their BBTS orders over it. Like $1000 dollars! haha. The price of the brothers might still flux before they are released. He constantly haggles with china to get his lowest price and is trying not to rip people off, while giving them a fair expectation of what they might pay. Once he gets a solid price from his distro he puts a price on his site. It may only be $5-10 bucks, but it adds up over time. But like the MP-08 was $70-$100 dollars cheaper. Prowl is the end of this month. Bluestreak is next month. No release in Nov. SS is in Dec. I doubt you could get those in the same shipment over 4 months! haha Good luck with SAL. After my Virgin road almost got lost in New York and took 4 weeks, I stopped using it. haha.

    Lunar's price for MP-10 is $290 inc shipping. $8 bucks cheaper than RK, and $9 bucks cheaper than TFsource. (Not sure if their free shipping is included as I didn't read the fine print.) $25 cheaper than BBTS with shipping!!! He's saved me about $100 bucks on MP's over the last few months.

    Man, the Max and Milia's are going up for sale all over. Like somebody knows they are going to be re-released soon! haha

    I'm not buying into the character's justifications, I'm going off the things the writer, directors, and actors have said about the show, and extrapolating. Also I've watched it front to back and know the themes pretty well. He is the hero for me. I'm a grown-up and I can pull for fictional bad guys if I want to. It's only a show. haha. That was a great part of Sunday's episode. They flipped the whole "Villain talks too much and gives the hero time to get away" trope by having Hank celebrate too long and Walt (the Bad guy) is going to get away because of it. It's brilliant. I am pointing out that, Jesse is only motivated by revenge and anger. I don't see anything about his actions involving "balls." Quite the opposite. I just think passive aggressive doesn't describe Walt in any way in this season. He directly tries to deal with Jesse several times. He isn't trying to be stubborn, or indirect to change Jesse's mind. He wants to engage him directly and "Do whatever it takes to work this out." Walt was passive aggressive in season 3 when he tried to cut Jesse out of the business when he first met Gail... but that was a different season. I think I don't agree with what you post when it comes to breaking bad because I don't think you're correct. BB isn't a vague kind of show. I think the directors/writers intends very specific themes for the show. Anyway, this is a good place to start: Anyway, I'm not trying to be a dick. I just love the show. I enjoy a good discussion on it.

    Dat Smokescreen!

    Thinking about preordering too. I don't agree that Walt is passive aggressive or doesn't want to be Heisenberg. He is Hesienberg, and still works off the knowledge he gained being a meth lord, (The confession tape, and his control over his legit business) but he's trying to get out of the business without violence. Walt just wants to escape consequences. You can see examples of him being like Heisenberg all through the show, way before season 4. The whole point, and something that Brian Cranston has pointed out, is that there is good and bad in all of us. Walt has always wanted control and respect, but took shortcuts and ruined relationships to get them. I think he just ran out of options, and because of his blind spot to Jesse, (He couldn't imagine Jesse ratting him out.) he allowed himself to be cornered. But the show is always about Walt breaking out of corners one way or another. This time the Uncles of Anarchy are breaking him out.

    They are doing another run of Lambor because the KO's are widely available. I think there is one coming in Dec. The yellow is ok.. it's the giant unpainted spots on the feet that got me. haha

    Yeah, I don't see that take at all. Jesse is terrified of Walt and thinks he is a monster. He showed zero balls. You could see him looking for a way out and looking scared during the shoot-out. His deal with Hank only exists to take down somebody he couldn't take down on his own. Hank wasn't quite smart or fast enough to catch Walt, and Jesse doesn't have the analytical skills on his own. Together they could do it because Walt does/did care about Jesse. Jesse gave up a long time ago, though. After he loses Mike he gives up. His entire character is pretty much a dramatic foil for Walt at this point and their won't be any reconciliation. Jesse was the Rabid dog. I think Walt appeared less menacing this episode because he doesn't want to be Heisenberg anymore, and he is really full of emotion, as Vince mentioned in the Insider podcast.

    I still think Skyler is going to die. Idk, the great thing about this show is that you know a lot of things that will probably happen.. yet you still have no idea how it's going to play out. Who has the balls to do a cliffhanger every episode!
  23. Gakken85
    Hank and Gomie are gonna get it haha. I think Todd will die and the Nazi's will capture Jesse to cook. Since they know about Brock they can hold him hostage.
  24. Gakken85
    Yeah MP-10 weighs 6 friggin pounds. Shipping in the states is almost 25 bucks.
