    I kinda wish I had missed it

    1D is cool, but I’m still waiting for the 1A to go with the Max/ Kakizaki fighters

    I do have to agree about Toy Story 2 and 3. But that’s definitely from a different era and management of Pixar

    I’m still wondering if Bandai will do an hg vf-1. I don’t remember if I mentioned it here or in another thread, but I’d probably really like it, but would probably be absolutely frustrated with trying to obtain three so I could have one for each mode like I did with the YF-19 and YF-21

    I don’t have them next to each other, but by memory they are pretty close to the same length. The hmr may be slightly longer, but oddly the tv pilot is almost the same size

    I personally love the slightly more realistic and smaller ones like the mecha from Front Missions Megazone 23 and Votoms. I kinda feel that if military mecha were to actually exist, it would be much smaller than a Mobile Suit from Gundam. I also tend to be a fan of power armor, like the Nue design for Starship Troopers or Ma K. But I do like when something seems a bit justified like Macross to be able to kick a giant in the nuts I don’t hate the fantasy stuff though, but I do like the ones that feel a bit more real personally

    The way things are going with Hasbro, it’s actually a pretty good possibility. They laid off quite a few workers and many of their usual toys from kids to collectors have been handled by other companies. I was recently and probably annoyingly complaining about their cheap D&D toys for the cartoon and all of a sudden, Super 7 is doing some that look better and will probably have far better packaging. Other companies like Mcfarlane are doing odd page punchers for GI Joe and Transformers. And these are only a few that are putting out stuff for them. Hasbro may take a good look at what Ramen is doing. They haven’t tried to stop them and that could be a sign

    Not necessarily a favorite, but Ideon always fits in as the overpowered lead. That thing destroyed a universe in the series

    Recently Hasbro has become more of an overall entertainment company with seemingly higher interests in films and games. They’ve been outsourcing a lot of their toy brands to other companies lately

    Macross is definitely a kids show. We basically call teenagers kids all the time, but they don’t get referred to as children. And I feel that Macross definitely wouldn’t be classified as a childrens show. 99.9 percent of all anime is designed for kids and there are a few rarities that truly are for adults. Visually more are for adults, but the stories are mostly still kids stories. It’s also not a bad thing to be a kids show and shouldn’t be an insult. As far as my thoughts on Dyrl, I love it. I don’t love it as much as the show though, but I still love it. The story is definitely too rushed and things make more sense with being able to see the series first. I absolutely love the animation and think it holds up really well today. Even though I love the Queadluun Rau in the series more, the enemy mecha has a more interesting thing going on with the biomechanics that make them feel more alien. It wasn’t until the recent Hasegawa kit of the Queadluun Rau that I started to realize how much of the designs were so biomechanic. The other thing that I was looking at were many poses in artwork that I didn’t even notice until I was trying to see certain shapes and how much I feel like I’m still discovering rewatching scenes from the movie. There’s also a certain sense of danger in a lot of the scenes. There were some great scenes in the series, but I feel like there was more tension. Overall, I still enjoy the series more than the film and if I knew a younger person that enjoys seeing some older shows or movies, then I would recommend it to them. There are a lot of young kids that do enjoy older stuff, even if most might not be too interested.

    That’s pretty wild for 1/24. Seems they packed a lot of action into a super small figure

    The kit looks pretty good. It’s in my backlog, but for those that just like to snap it up, there’s a lot of pre painted parts. and for those that are used to doing a bit more the seams seem to be in mostly simple spots and repainting those areas doesn’t look too difficult since most of them are marked either by raised or recessed plastic. I couldn’t help cutting the tape and tearing away the tissue paper to check out the parts

    I’m really curious about how things are gonna go. Here in C.A. we’re supposed to have only electric vehicles sold brand new in just a little over a decade. I’ve seen a more and more places slowly adding charging stations like malls and some work places. A lot of people currently have electric vehicles, but most still have gas and hybrids. I think the biggest fear for people is the battery charge on the vehicles. I moved to Crestline and when I’ve talked to people about them they’re very hesitant up here. There’s a lot of stories about how the batteries have charging issues during winter weather and it does get pretty cold up here occasionally. Others are worried the infrastructure won’t be set up fully in a decade. It’s definitely going to get interesting for better or worse

    I do it seems like an odd one since two full figures for less than a single seems a bit too good to be true
  15. Big s
    Nah, the others got it. They just don’t want to admit that they got it
  16. Big s
    That’s not an animation mistake, they’re just ……uh um uh….., frosty from that icy asteroid. Yeah, that’s it frosty feet

    I think we all unfortunately know the joke

    It’s weird, but I still don’t trust it.

    Oddly she was supposed to be French although not in Robotech

    I thought it was just an alternate package. I’m ok with two figures though if that is the case. It seems less expensive than their other cloth covered figures since there’s supposedly two I am a bit skeptical over whether there are two figures in one box though and hopefully there are. I guess we’ll find out for sure soon

    It’s unfortunate, but Males tend to have an average of around the 70’s whether there’s problems or not. The numbers kinda jump around a bit though. But some do live longer and some that have lived worse. When it’s time to go the best we can hope for is a peaceful night. The family had said that that was how he went. Peacefully in the night and for all the great roles he’s given us, I think that’s a great gift. He will surely be missed, but he has a great legacy to look back on.

    The joints are actually very simplistic, but a few kaiyodo toys around the time had similar joint styles. They were barely jointed, but the joint angles made it appear to get very dynamic poses with simple movement. The simplicity kinda made them fun to pose since it felt like no matter what, the pose would end up forced into a cool looking position. There were also some really cool little Devil May Cry trading figures that were similarly made for the first and second games. I think there was another line, but I’m forgetting the name right now

    I haven’t seen the actual show, but had seen the pilot a couple years ago along with Helluva Boss on YouTube
  24. Big s
    Neither did any of the other kids in his neighborhood
