  1. So I read the synopsis of the new Robocop, I am not impressed.
  2. Very cool, if it does come out I will think about getting one, though it will likely cost as much as an arcadia valk, ugh Legos are so freaking expensive...
  3. Holy Shnikies that is awesome. You need to take some shots with it next to other 1:72 Macross models, do you have any VF-1s or Moscato creations?
  4. Gargoyles was great until it went to saturday mornings, once it did that I rarely saw it and when I did I didn't like what I saw.
  5. So my wireless router is getting ready to die, not bad for a ten year linksys, anyone have any suggestions for a good replacement, that can handle up to 10 devices online at once?
  6. Primary reason, it won't fit. The F-100 is a shorter, wider engine, while the J79 is thin and quite long. There was testing early in the F-16 program where they put J79 into an F-16 as a just in case type measure.
  7. I would love it if it were a gatling airsoft gun, epic awesome right there
  8. I always said that these movies would spell the end of the TF toy line producing any kind of quality toys.
  9. Am I the only one, that wants to articulate those cannons and use the model as chop sticks, assuming its the right size?
  10. I would agree that Peri is one of, if not the, hottest companion ever, but Clara is definitely up there too. THing is with Peri they were really exploiting her looks, I think she is the only companion that they consistently had in revealing outfits and bikinis. I would count Teela, but her leather getup was actually pretty covering, and she wasn't stacked like Peri.
  11. While I understand the hate on Donna, I actually liked her. She was what the doctor needed, especially after the longing puppy that was Martha Jones. The Doctor and Donna had an almost brother/sister relationship and her story arch came to a good conclusion at the end. Honestly, she could be used again after how they left her, in a way she could be part of the Gallifrey returns arc, if done correctly, but she would end up sacrificing herself in the process. I know my wife would vote Rory for worst companion of the modern series, she never liked him. But, me I liked Rory, but only after the Roman story arc. However I will say that Amy and Rory both started to seriously bug me towards the end, particularly after the Battle of Demon's Run. While they were reunited with Melody/River in the next episode/series, there was never any fallout about loosing their daughter beyond that. Amy especially should have been constantly reminded of the loss every time they encountered a child in need. Instead the only mention of it is at the Dalek Asylum when she says that her inability to bear children was why she was divorcing Rory. I'm a parent, and if something happened to one of my kids like that, you better believe I would continue to go after the doctor to get them back, especially as a child. That is why I would vote her as the worst companion amongst other reasons. I like and dislike all the companions for various reasons, but I think it is important to note why the modern Dr Who focuses so much on the companions and their relationships with the doctor. Female viewers. Many female viewers do not like the old series becuase the Doctor's relationships with his companions were so cold. Adding a sense of longing/romance to the characters draws in more female viewers. My wife and I have gone back and forth on this many times, and even she likes the relationship with Clara, because, while she loves the doctor, she is not in love with him, more like a good/best friend. Amy bugged us both because she just wanted to bang the doctor. River worked as his "wife" because she was the closest to a female timelord he'd encountered in this timeline. Donna, neither of us liked at first until we saw the more bro/sis relationship. Martha, we liked for her smarts, but disliked for her unrequited love. Mikey, he was a whiner, but he had his good points, and was probably the weakest companion. Capt Jack, was so awesome he got his own short lived series, and needs to come back in some form. And Rose, I never liked the love story with Rose, not a first, but it did grow on me and ended the only way it could.
  12. I applaud the fan effort for sure and will like to see it, but come on guys, could you at least have used a yammie to make your valk model?
  13. That trailer had more cheese then my last pizza
  14. ANyone here played Space Engineers? It looks interesting and might even have full newtonian physics. I was thinking of building some of my designs in it to see how they handle, but understand it has problems with really big ships. Anyone here play with it and can verify?
  15. this build is great, can't wait to see more
  16. Tropic Thunder is not a Tom Cruise movie, he is in it, but he is not the focus. Cruise can make some good movies, but I don't like what I see so far with this one. I mean why make an exoskeleton like that with no additional armor to protect the pilot. It's almost as bad as those stupid mechs in the Matrix sequels. Also, care chases, really why? Were the battles scenes not enough?
  17. I think the general concesus is that those are turrets that the macross was rebuilt with. IIRC they even open up like a smaller scale macross cannon. As for the destroid mounts, those are in various places across the ship, I would be willing to be that you could find Destroid "mounts" in place of destroyed turrets as the story went on, but those weren't shown.
  18. Wow, that looks like someone took the excellent IMHO Dean Koontz Frankenstein continuation novels and crap all over them.
  19. Maybe with better casting and a powered suit that didn't look like ass... The source material is interesting
