    Oops; I forget sometimes that while my local area quit airing the show after "Rebirth", that wasn't the end of the show. So after a quick search, I'm confused; is Headmasters part of G1 or not? "Rebirth" appears to be the first 3 episodes of Headmasters; and again we sacrifice OP to bring back Rodimus, completely rebuild/rename both cassette bots. Yeah, I didn't miss much!

    He only appears in part 1 of "The Rebirth"; or the very last shows of G1. He shows up to the fight, tries to do some spying and then gets taken down by the wolf and bird twins from the Decepticons; maybe 60 secs of screen time total. You do get to see all 3 modes, albeit briefly.

    In the opening scene, I believe its all low/mumbling Spanish, until the SNAFU and "Shoot her!"; end scene. The overall mention of the actual project size is mainly found in the throwaway comments from Nedry or SLJ's character and computer moniters. I believe the girl even comes across "Site B" when she is rebooting security. The birthing scene only throws more confusion into the wind. Personally, I say just reboot the whole series and do the entire first book this time; as throwing the missing pieces into the third film was a, "We're already lacking in story + new dino".

    So when the first film opens they are simply moving what will be the head raptor, from one holding pen to another? Doesn't the first film make mention, even if only briefly, that the project is several islands with the Park being the largest?

    The standing pilots seem to be more of a 1/72 scale than 1/100, to me. I say this only due to having used the Armored Factory crew and a Bandai 1/72 Minmay for my little display. My 1/72 Minmay seems to more at the same height to the Valk as the pilots in the photos than the actual 1/100 Armored Factory crew is when I compare them. So long as Minmay remains in the foreground its hard to tell the difference but as soon as you place her next to an actual 1/100, she becomes an Amazonian instead of a teenage pop-star. Just wanted to share for those who are thinking/intending on getting the toys for the figures to use with the Armored Factory; and if you no longer want the Veritechs leave me a PM and we may work something out.

    I only managed to sit through two episodes of Longmire, seasons apart I might add; so its hard for me to make that call. Yellowstone is going to be more about trying to maintain one's empire and power, all while trying to decide which of the kids will take the reins of the Ranch. I view it more as a "Corleone tale" with a cowboy twist and no M. Puzo.

    Caught an encore presentation of Yellowstone's premiere; the new K. Costner show on Paramount Network or what was Spike. Went into the show expecting a 1 hr premiere; its 2 hrs and well worth it to set all the pieces into their opening moves. Massive Cattle Ranch dealing with everyday life, encroaching civilization, and of course a Reservation and Casino; this is before we get into internal struggles on the Ranch or Reservation. Well worth checking out!

    Hi-Metal R

    Wolf-1 replied to joppewo's topic in Toys

    Loving the look of this! What exactly did you use to add to the original kit; I've been wanting to do something similar but have only purchased the Tomytec aviation platforms to separate the two bays or add additional floor space. I've found its difficult to place more than 2 toys on the bays w/o them becoming overcrowded, start placing crew and set pieces and it gets small really quickly. I've also found that taking a 1/72 double seated cockpit and cutting off the back half and reattaching it at 90 degrees allows for a passable raised seat from a 1/100 figure with the head pitched forward.

    So close to being the bar scene. Points need awarded!

    Was Johnny a champion his junior year or not? He says, "I never lost a point my junior year," while talking with Miguel; if he was never hit, and wasn't disqualified, how could he not have been champion in '83? The only reason I'm asking is that while everyone recognizes that Daniel was a champion, its never acknowledged with Johnny. While the show does say the Cobra Kai's have a lifetime ban from competing, nothing is said of championships/records expunged. This is my only issue with the show and in the end its so minor it doesn't really matter; awaiting season 2.

    For what purpose or enemy, in particular, was the VB6 Monster given a third transformation into battroid for? Given the transformation and placement of its weapons afterward I fail to see any advantage or strategic value in it.

    Cap's new shield has a concealed/closed option; he is wearing it in the scenes of the armies charging one another. War Machine seems to be fine, as long as Col. Rhodes is in the suit at least. No sign of Hawkeye/Ronin, yet.

    Personally, I always preferred Children's Palace over TRU; though I never made it to NY for FAO Schwarz. The last few times I had to visit a TRU to look for gift ideas for my nephew I was very disappointed even with half the store being stocked for his age group, toddler. Why do I have a sudden urge to re-watch "The Toy" now?
  15. Wolf-1
    You are correct. However, you could save some money and just buy the super parts kit instead and save a little unless you want two super siegfried's to display.

    Mikumo and therefore Junna is supposed to stand out from others, hence the lead vocalists. As far as her "drowning" out the rest, that is the show and the studio; from what I've seen from concert footage Junna's voice when joined with the others doesn't overpower but instead lends to the overall harmony that makes the groups foundation. As the lead vocalists we are going to be bound to hear her more or seeming to overpower the others as this is the design, rarely are all 5 singing at once. It isn't until we hear the songs that are designed to highlight the others of the group that she tends to melt into the background on CD/show. The only footage I've seen of their DYRL cover, Junna is emotional prior to the song even beginning and when her solo comes she actually falters; didn't detract from the performance in anyway.

    Was curious as to whether anyone here has purchased DX-9's "seekers" sets yet and how they might compare scale wise to HMR or the Toynami line. Always wanted Roy or Max to shut Starscream up as a kid, since Jetfire couldn't get it done in the show, I'll go ahead and add Dirge to the list as well! Pics, links that show comparable scale much appreciated if you have them/know of them.

    Roid is up for presale on HLJ.com, Sept. release.

    1. Yes the OVA, is there yet another version? By dramatic, I don't mean changes the story but instead adds to it, even the M1 Garands being used in the celebration. 2. Sharon showed signs of awakening before the neurochip, the fire and phone calls in particular, she specifically had to track down Guld's car phone,not to mention Isamu,who wasn't even on base. So even while incomplete she was becoming aware and one way to get an emotion program is to achieve a physical living form. 3. Sorry I didn't mean to imply Sharon had planned out the Mikumo scenario; that was Roid's doing, though Lady M is quite aware of the Protoculture Ruins. Mikumo/Sharon mirroring each other; Mikumo's hair style and facial bone structure is not much different from one of Sharon's preferred images. Both have had the most commanding voice presences of any of the female Idols, ability to project not range. Sharon was created with Song/Music being the basis of her existence, oddly enough in Delta Mikumo says at least twice, "Music is purpose/life". Even if how the mind-control/hypnosis is different both are defeated essentially the same way, our hero just happens to hear "another" voice, helping them break the hold of hypnosis/control. IF Sharon could have escaped, given Myung's last few sentences to Sharon, saying her heart was in the right place but her actions all wrong, I instead see Sharon trying to make amends not repeat history.

    Guess I've just missed it, all apparently, still not the Spidey I know, regardless of the reboot. While it makes sense as to Tony building the suit for Peter in the cinematic universe, it takes away from how genuinely smart Peter was. As I've said, I stopped reading the books just before things started getting really askew, to me. Have roughly kept up by browsing or conversations with other fans who are more current over the years. I fondly recall Spiderman, Amazing, Spectacular and Web of; I know I'm no longer the targeted market just haven't adjusted even after all this time, damn nostalgia. Aunt May is indeed looking younger however all but the bottom are qualified given their actual age; I doubt even Miss Tomei's head of hair is still natural without a few strands of wisdom at minimum. Classic Aunt May just rocked it.

    I know the general consensus is that Lady M is Minmay due to the photo of her in Frontier and the little tidbit in Delta about Megaroad 1; I know most here don't want a generations show, personally on the fence depending on the how its achieved. Just got my M+ movie version, didn't realize all the little yet dramatic differences in the two, until coming here. Anyway, If Sharon can run an island wide concert, fly the ghost and a Macross class ship, hold a conversation with Myung while captive, the list goes on, all this at roughly the same time. How is it that she couldn't figure out to upload herself elsewhere far, far off, even after the warning of how "self protective" her emotion program was? Patiently awaiting a way to return. Lady M(yung) was very involved in the development of Mikumo, who just happened to essentially do the exact same thing as Sharon only on a much larger scale.

    The figure above; I own all the Marvel films, yes, even the crappy VHS Captain America, so while I've seen Civil War, while the cowl and pants seem the same the hoodie is a late add on I believe. I have no further insight into whats going to actually transpire in the film past the trailers already released, different perspective, but that is it. I'm not so sure Tony will take the suit away from Peter and he will then have to rely on the original; I think Peter will realize Tony is tracking him with the suit and ditch it in order to prove himself worthy. Tony is too much Big Brother for Spidey who was traditionally only a reserve member of the Avengers. I think Peter will add the web-gliders with the help of "Death Star" friend, pointless addition, the friend not the webbing. This Cinematic Universe has been great about dropping not so subtle and subtle hints on where its going once there is no more Tony and Original Capt. Since Sony actually owns the rights to Spidey this would allow them their own shoot-offs, should they be desperate enough to go the Spider-Clone/Spider-Island/Spiderverse route.

    Is this supposed to be their take or play rather on The Scarlet Spider? Are they really going to open up that box? Isn't this what helped bring Marvel to its knees in the mid 90's; I know I quit reading all the titles just before they started it. Just give us Kraven's Last Hunt already!

    Papa McMannis passed on in the second film, just after taking out Peter Fonda's character so not an issue at all. The second film was centered on his origin story and the betrayal that set everything in motion. There are several things that Hollywood and humanity should leave be, unfortunately that is not in our nature.

    Both Scripts are finished! Two, I say, one for the 3rd film. The other for the upcoming prequel t.v. season(s). New brothers will be found for the t.v. series; however, other cast members from the films will make appearances, some as those we know, others will take on new roles to help build on their original rolls. The film will have the brothers we all know and love back and picking up where they were left at. Simply befriend Boondock Saints on F.B. and Troy Duffy(creator) has several videos explaining what to expect and where the funding is coming from and its not "crowd" funded.
