  1. Maybe, but then again from what I understand Mcfarlane may have cut a deal with Hasbro. So it’s possible, but under Mcfarlane instead but with the backing of Hasbro
  2. The Doof Warrior and his wagon were highlights of awesomeness
  3. I don’t think they can do dyrl
  4. You’re lucky that it was available to you. It was very rare to see anything from 2000AD until almost the late 80’s. Oddly I think it gained a lot of popularity when Anthrax did the song I Am The Law. A lot of metal heads were requesting it in the comic shops around then
  5. Have you thought about getting him a real guitar. There’s actually a few really good learning tools to help out with the teaching that are available these days. They teach everything from tuning to the basics and beyond. I wish these kinds of things were available when I was growing up. You never know, you could end up raising the next Eddie Van Halen
  6. How about other stuff from Macross. I’d be interested to see them do a Queadluun Rau tv type. It probably wouldn’t be as cool as the hasegawa movie version kit or the tv version that Moscato did, but as far as toys, it couldn’t be as bad as the Yamato. That thing had such strange proportions everywhere.
  7. Probably end of the month
  8. I’ll take an army of Regults
  9. I read some of his stuff with Judge Dredd and loved the crazy look. Of course it was a few years after those stories originally came out, but it still had a very different feel and look than the American comics I was reading at the time. It had more of a Heavy Metal feel and look and in the late 80’s the American stuff was starting to get a bit darker, but not quite to that level
  10. That’s what I was wondering. He’s my favorite of the baddies, but usually gets ignored
  11. That’s interesting. I like the orange cat kits, but it might be fun to have the anime version as well. I’ll keep an eye on it. Hopefully it turns out cool
  12. I’m hoping they don’t go that route. There are significant surface details and shapes that don’t look right. There are parts that could be common use like the guns and hands maybe cockpit, but the lower legs and the lower arms are different.there are parts like the upper arms and legs that have little extra bits of detail that are there depending on the picture or screenshot. Personally I’d feel disgusted if they did a simple reuse of all of or most of the kit. I’d rather wait a while for them to get it right or hand the job off to Max Factory. I think most of us were very disappointed with their odd Macross tv arm version and had hoped they’d one day do proper TV version of the iconic ship in both modes.
  13. This year’s Ben fairly forgettable movie wise, I have no doubt this will be on a lot of number one lists
  14. Yeah, I don’t have any real info on it, but from the couple scenes and a couple of pictures I could find, that’s my theory on things.
  15. There's a bit of an inconsistency going on with the inside of the Queadluun Rau movie version cockpit. In one scene there the mess of muscle wiring and in the end scene when Max and Miria or Milia or whatever her name is , there’s no wiring, but a couple extra clips hanging down.as far as internals, I found this one for how the hands fit in.it seems like a complicated mess to set up and connect. I’m kinda thinking maybe that muscular wiring is in a retracted form until it’s activated. They show a couple of scenes where this stuff moves and I’m getting the idea that this biomechanical wire just connects itself to the pilot suit connection points. Like if in a parked state, you wouldn’t really see the wiring, but then when activated it comes alive and does the connections and allows the pilot to control it from there. When the purple grunt gets shot down and crashes into the enemy ship the bio mechanical system dies and that’s why it was still dangling loosely as the pilot fell out and then her light went out on her chest showing that she passed since the suit could tell she had died
  16. The inside is definitely something that needs a bit of work. It’s a bit like Dunbine with a somewhat muscle kind of structure here and there. I get the feeling that hasegawa knew mechanically how to make the outside and kinda didn’t know how to make that all work and still be able to open and close. I’ve found very get pictures that really show where all that stuff goes.
  17. The Bandai non Macross stuff has the same issues. It seems oddly to go by price of an item rather than weight or size. A low price item like a kit will only be a few bucks more, but a similar box size figure will cost quite a bit more. A $50 toy might jump to $75 even though the space takes up half a $20 kit that might only jump to $25
  18. Just rewatched Fury Road and in the beginning of the movie Max does mention that he was a cop. 45 years plus another ten or twenty between would’ve made max a baby pulling people over in a stroller. There were things like Furiosa having a clan set up for when she was younger. The only thing that sorta might make sense is if this collapse was a tougher thing in certain areas and Max maybe was a cop in an area that hadn’t totally fallen for at least twenty something years after whatever collapse occurred
  19. I guess that’s a thing I’m curious about. All the pictures and screen shots look really close to the kit for the movie version, the surface details seem to have less going on than the tv version and I also know that the moscato version has added detail that wasn’t on the original, like the rivets.
  20. I like your interpretation of the tv version, I’m curious on what you would change other than height on the movie version. To me the Hasegawa looks really great compared to its line art pictures and animation. I’m not the worlds best expert and don’t have every bit of technical info, so I would love to know what things about this aren’t up to your standards.
  21. It was a silly time, but I miss those comics now.
  22. Better late than never
  23. Lookin real good
