  1. I think Boyega is strong enough to do a show, but his character was weakened a bit too much. Although I guess that since he didn’t end up with lil miss Skywalker that they could try and do something a bit more detached with him and Rose. But that involves using one of the more hated characters. Personally, I think they should just move ahead without using any established characters in a new adventure that doesn’t rely so much on cameos, but gets the narrative moving beyond the Rey era. Basically just leave the past in the past and give us a new beginning
  2. I’d be more interested if this were in a smaller scale. There’s a lot of close to six inch versions out there already
  3. Yeah, I’ve said in the 1/18th thread that these are way overpriced for what you get. The wheel on the front of the bikes don’t even roll. They’re simple no detail add ons to a small low detail figure. I still think the figure should be ten and maybe as a bike and figure set something like twenty to twenty five. I think they look cool, but not at the asking price
  4. That’s actually what I noticed before the jeep. First was the big Queadluun Rau, then I spotted Max giving chase, then the crew in the door. I kinda thought it was just some debris until I looked closer and realized it was a jeep. A lot going on in that little hallway
  5. I think it actually looked far better animation wise. The hand drawn look always appears better than the simplified cg almost AI look of the majority of modern anime
  6. Wasn’t he a marine or something? Anyway, I didn’t mind him at all in the first of those movies. And he seemed far less nerdy than Boyega who was supposed to have been a life long soldier.
  7. I’ll take Southern Cross easily over all this Tronime.
  8. I don’t see why not, but i think that’s more of a plamax thing. Anyway, look at that jeep, definitely gonna be next in line for the tv Macross kits. Maybe it will even come with that ground crew 💩ing their pants
  9. Yeah, the modern stuff is mostly trash. I miss being excited for anime, but I’m oddly finding more excitement for American animation these days. Can’t wait for more Invincible and curious if Black Knight gets a full series cause that teaser was awesome. But I do feel curious about the upcoming Macross show, although I really know nothing about it
  10. Looks like they went with the classic with Max chasing her down for the showdown
  11. Some people are showing issues on the P Bandai American site. Seems certain items aren’t showing properly. Sometimes things don’t show if they’ve sold out, but this time around most of the stuff didn’t, they’re just awkward to find. One of the items I wanted and was one of the only kits for G Quuuuuuuuuuuuuuux that I don’t think is totally ugly is that Gundam 01. For me it didn’t show on the preorder page, but I had to go to the hobby section and then to the hg section and it still didn’t show in the preorder spot, but I did find it at the recently added list that you scroll to the sides with. Anyway preorder is there and it’s pricey, but it’s there.anyway, I preordered it, even if I’m somewhat regretting my financial decision and did get a confirmation.
  12. That has got to be the most epic opening crawl ever. Not sure if we get an intermission after those two hours before the movie actually starts or if the movie only has a two hour run time and credits just roll after the crawl
  13. It depends on the style. Realistic ones can get away with a wash, but actually painting the eye can help. With anime figures, especially the higher detail ones, the best way is with water color pencils. Start with a dark wash like a darker brown or black if it’s a female character with eyeliner. Then use a water color pencil of white to get the out line of the eye and a sharpened darker one to outline the pupils and such. If they look a bit buggy you can do a quick top coat and then a bit of a light gray wash to tone the whites down
  14. I thought it was a different movie. The more infamous Troll 2. I don’t even know if anyone actually saw the first Troll, but everyone seems to remember Troll 2, but usually not for good reasons
  15. Sometimes a movie can make far more than it’s budget worldwide, but I guess other things like hardcore marketing can cost far more than the budgets and I’d imagine that spending on that one was quite a bit. I remember a lot of commercials for it compared to the more recent film that seems to mostly just have a YouTube spot here and there.
  16. I still really enjoy the high energy of their first two albums. They had an almost desperate kinda sound, like if they play hard and fast that they might just starve to death and it made for a really aggressive sound compared to their albums that came later
  17. Mercy Rabbit is definitely back, but not too sure if that’s the final art for the box. Some of the other kits recently had shown different art at the shows than what ended up on the actual box, but they are getting close to that supposed deadline for the tv Queadluun Rau release and maybe it is just needing a background.
  18. I’m actually hoping those come from Bandai in the hg lineup
  19. Looks Awsome. The articulation sounds good as well.
  20. Another Led Mirage in the way in 1/100
  21. Kinda curious about articulation. I know there are a lot of joints, but there’s also a lot of armor that probably block movement, just wondering about its range of motion
  22. Definitely not a Sith, he was. Knight of Ren and Stimpy or something
  23. Watched the first episode of Ha Ha You Clowns on Max or HBO Max or whatever it’s called these days. It’s a new adult swim show that I knew nothing about. I had a few minutes to spare and the first episode is only 12 minutes, so I figured that if I hated it that I wouldn’t have lost much time. Honestly, since I went in with no information about the show, it was a complete surprise. There’s definitely some adult humor, but I guess I kinda figured it would be more of the adult cartoon style done to death kinda shows. The characters are fairly dimwitted, but the difference here is that the characters aren’t naturally aggressive and the show really doesn’t deal with hateful or even spiteful humor the way most modern adult cartoons do things. If not for a few adult jokes, I’d actually say this is the most wholesome tv show I’ve seen this century. It’s definitely not the smartest show and doesn’t have a lot of big gags or anything, and nobody is antagonistic, but I really liked this for being such a different type of show. Basically it’s a household about Three meat heads and their father after the mother had passed away and just trying to work together to get through a rough emotional situation, but everyone has eachother’s back. Anyway, if you’re looking for something different than the usual then this might be a good way to spend 12 minutes of free time
  24. I actually liked the character as a crazed baddie in the first and maybe even second film, but the third film went so far off the bent rails from the second movie, that there was no way that train wasn’t going off a cliff. Let the sequels be and move on and please don’t do a prequel type story either
