    Apologies for the tangent - I actually just visited Super Nintendo World for the first time today, and I have to admit that it felt surprisingly small to me. Not claustrophobic in any way, but the designers use vertical space in a way which I did not "get" from looking at photos and videos of the area. Humorously enough, I went in the middle of the day on one of the coldest days of the year for Florida, and the place was still completely packed almost shoulder-to-shoulder. There was a higher concentration of people in Super Nintendo World than any other part of the park by a considerable margin. The main thing which annoyed me by this attraction is that, after visiting every shop in the park, I found a grand total of ONE small display with Legend of Zelda merchandise. The shop was even playing the "great fairy" music, and I was certain that I was going to find more... but no. No Metroid, Kirby, or any other first-party characters were found anywhere. That feels like a huge missed opportunity by Universal. Do better, Nintendo. Anyway, as far as Galaxy's Edge goes, I can't help but wonder if the static A-Wing and X-Wing fighters are going to be replaced with original trilogy versions? They had better be. Disney really needs to pay attention to detail with things like this. And I totally agree that there needs to be more "going on" with those displays. Maintenance droids, technicians, loadout carts, something...

    I truly hope that they also update Disney World in the same manner. And they can start by putting the ROUND dish on top of the Falcon.

    HMR VF-19P

    Amazon USA has this down to $159, which still feels pretty steep. Anybody recently seen a better deal anywhere else?

    I utterly loved Street Fighter II V, especially the part in the first few episodes where Guile beats the living hell out of both Ken and Ryu. 😁

    Very interested to see what you think of these. I hope the Max 1J is good.

    In case anyone is interested, a new PC game called Cleared Hot has an "almost-Airwolf" as a playable helicopter. I'm kind of tickled that the devs included this.

    DX Chogokin VF-17S

    Wrong gunpod stowage is just so very, very wrong.

    OMG. I wish I could use my USA Amazon account to order at that price...!

    Does this mean there's a Blazer coming?! OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG.

    Here's another thing which is bugging the hell out of me - If the Maginot had been out for 65 years, then how are some of the specimens still alive? Assuming that the specimens were collected at roughly the halfway point in the voyage before heading home, then wouldn't that make some of them potentially be 30 years old...? I am not clear on whether the specimens were put into cryo sleep, or even whether or not it would work on them. Seems like a big gamble to collect specimens and not know whether or not they'd make it back home. And do you think that they left Teng to tend to them the whole time when the rest of the crew was in cryo? The more I think about the writing for this series, the more it bothers me. I wish I could stop trying to analyze.

    I've reached the point in this series where I almost cannot wait for Weyland-Yutani to nuke the whole island (which is honestly what I hope happens in the end). And I have never once ever pulled for the "company" for any reason... until now. I wonder why Morrow didn't say something during the arbitration hearing about the crash being intentionally caused?
  12. Axelay
    I think one of my biggest WTFs about this show is that Morrow is supposed to be a cyborg apparently incorporating tech which is over 65 years old... but yet can still interface with modern tech like it's not an issue. That seems like a bit of a stretch to me. TVs from 65 years ago aren't exactly going to be able to interface (easily) with tech from 2025. Trying to imagine that level of future-proofing is very difficult for me to accept. I hope there's some bit of explanation for this. I honestly really want Kirsch to catch him.

    Too damned long. I was foaming at the mouth with the first photos. C'mon Arcadia, give me something NEW which I have wanted since college.

    That '97 Cable is just fantastic. I cannot wait to grab at least 3 of these for my little Cable shrine in my office.

    I am wildly excited about that Charlie Nash. God help me if they do alt colors for any of this line, because I would pay double price for the white vest + gray pants version. I had a 55 win streak with that combination way back when Alpha 2 was in its prime in the arcade.

    Got to see the leaked trailer, and I feel like the AT-AT is borrowing heavily from the Tardis' "it's larger on the inside" concept...
  17. Axelay
    That is a vast improvement.
  18. Axelay
    Quoted for IMMENSE truth.

    I wish the Max VF-1J would hurry right along...
  20. Axelay
    I legitimately laughed SO hard at this. Just the thought of your gun feeling depressed and not wanting to do its job is hilarious to me.
  21. Axelay
    Very exciting!
  22. Axelay
    I wholeheartedly agree with this sentiment. I've stopped reading other sites and strictly come here for Transformers news. This man is doing Primus' work.

    Full disclaimer - I have zero affiliation with this studio, but I have become a fan in a very short amount of time. The devs are apparently big time Macross fans, and so I thought I should try to bring this to the attention of gamers here. This game appears to combine similar elements from things very near and dear to my heart - Axelay, StarFox, Macross, Panzer Dragoon, and merges them with superior voice acting, an exceptional soundtrack, and a unique art style. There's a free demo on Steam now, and the full game is set to launch on the 25th of this month for Steam, Xbox, and Playstation. The MSRP is rumored to be only $19.99, which I don't even see how is possible. I was ready to go in all for $60. Launch trailer Into The Void trailer One of the first things which drew me into this was watching a livestream demo with the devs in which they were showing some of the livery options for the protagonist's fighter. I felt like I saw a clear pattern forming, and it hit me like a ton of bricks when I saw the names of the color schemes. There's one for Roy, Hikaru, Max, Miriya, and several others which haven't been shown yet. One of the weapons tech notes I found in the game's database is called "Itano Turbine," which uses "clusters of high speed and high accuracy missile deployments." I hope others here will consider checking this out. I am wildly excited about it now. This might be my completely unexpected game of the year.

    I absolutely agree. Having these in hand, it's almost undeniable that making Mixmaster and Scrapper be arms instead of legs just makes good sense. They make for quite interesting looking arms, and I always thought that they looked kind of odd as feet. From photos on TFW, I am under the impression that Hook and Long Haul may be coming next, so it will be interesting to see how these turn out and whether they have any particular innovations.

    I would be thrilled to have Captain Sulu. I honestly love the eclectic choices they're making.
