  1. Since it's already Feb. 26th in Japan, figure it's an appropriate day to post these (in memoriam): Really dig the song that starts around the 5:00 minute mark, but the first one is rather chill:
  2. Definitely a solid ep. Asajj should have remembered that you gotta use Force powers to beat Greivous. Actually like how the Nightsisters ain't exactly allied with the Sith. As much as I hope they continue to focus on Asajj's path, I have a sneaking suspicion the focus will continue to move towards a certain horned, tattooed, red fella.
  3. Don't worry you ain't the only one. The reboot was lacking that underlying theme/allegory on the human condition that's usually found in all of the good (read: even-numbered, except for ST Nemesis) Trek movies. I'll give JJ credit: he can write and film a tight plot. But there's something about his style of story-telling or the substance/content of his stories that I personally find lacking.
  4. ^^Yeah, I think I've seen practically all of his works. The level of detail he pulls off at such a small scale is nothing short of amazing. He's easily the best Star Wars figure customizer out there.
  5. Now all we need is a VF-4, a VF-17, a YF/VF-19, and a YF-21/VF-22 in the white/yellow/black color-scheme, and the Skull Squadron will be complete! Heck, you're already half way there.
  6. Nah, that's gonna be for the new daddy. Congrats, man! They're a LOT of work, but they'll bring you a TON of joy, especially during the small unexpected moments.
  7. Sorry but after seeing this custom first (Link), Sith Fire 30's custom Darth Malgus puts Hasbro's version to shame. Correction: It Force-chokes the Hasbro version, hits it with a bit of Force lightning, slaps it around a bit, slices and dices it up with a few choice lightsaber cuts, then Force hurls it into a million little bloody parts, chunks, and bits. It's that freakin' good.
  8. Were you able to get it before or after the new Treads/Betas started getting released? If it was before, I'm almost scared to ask what "relatively cheap" means!
  9. I don't care if it's lacking in articulation; I so WANT this figure : http://rebelscum.com...es/image124.asp More pics of upcoming figs (that I'll never see at retail) here: http://rebelscum.com...r_Wars_Figures/
  10. In the second image, is that what I think it is?!
  11. Not too shabby of a four-ep arc. Loved the final battle. Not sure I agree with the return of whiny, "They don't trust me!!" Anakin. I'd rather he have said something like, "First the whole mess with Master Krell. And now this? What's happening to the Council?" Tie back to an earlier story, show him more disillusioned or disappointed, and tone it down on the whining and over-righteous anger. Nobody likes whiny bitch Anakin.
  12. Wow, that Retaliation Lady Jaye looks horrid! And can someone please explain to me why Jinx in her classic get-up is gonna be a super-hard-as-hell-to-find SDCC exclusive? Lastly, regarding the Super Bowl trailer, it's okay. But the first one was so much better, and the music on the first one just meshed so much better with the on-screen action.
  13. From the shocked (but not completely shocked) department: RIP Whitney Houston. (P.S.--Anyone posting "I Will Always Love You," I'm pullin' your Whitney fan-card! ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Il2EmkH5lA A personal fave:
  14. Time to get ya' learn on! BOTSWWWWWWWWWANA!!: Bonus points for setting it to the tune of "Turkey in the Straw":
  15. Stop mixing your Macross World memes!! Speaking of memes, how the hell did I come up with this religious dissertation on Yoshinol? http://www.macrosswo...ndpost&p=693696
  16. ^^Don't forget, Rex also had a little cameo in this current arc, when he hesitantly disclosed to Mace and Yoda that Anakin wasn't around to guard the Chancellor. Since they seem to have been assigned guard duty, I'm sure the 501st is getting a good-old fashioned mind-frakking from Mr. Palpy. As for these last three episodes, it's been a pretty solid effort so far; let's see how they finish off this current arc.
  17. TV-style SDF-1 please! I miss the old girl, gawdy colors and all.
  18. Very nice! Looking at the battroid pics, I now see why you painted the front canards yellow. I agree with the rest of the guys: the pink just doesn't mesh with the rest of the color scheme. Thanks, though, for all the WIP pics; it has been a fun project to follow!
  19. English translations of the new Eureka AO manga are online now: http://mangastream.c...n_ao/71451535/1 Damn, looks like I'm intrigued enough to get sucked into another story.
  20. Hell Yeah! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVDGETKbzuc&feature=related They also have enough good, rare B-sides to make another album out of:
  21. Not too shabby of an ep. Palpatine is frickin' brilliant in his brief scenes, such the master manipulator. Liked seeing Anakin teetering on the edge of the Dark Side when walking into the bar. And got a chuckle over what the Bith ship dealer did.
  22. Careful, George still has about a week to screw around with this and make some unnecessary changes (like making one of the dogs howl "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!")
  23. ^^Don't forget, Graham, even with an improved connection, the tailfins on the Legioss are still gonna stick out a bit in combined fighter mode, and the yellow array on the Tread will still stick up and not sit down flush. After doing a little searching, it looks like it was a different person. Credit, though, goes to our resident Tread-Head, wwwmwww, for originally posting this many moons ago (Link). More pics from original site. Remember, this was a scratch-build made prior to the Toynami Beta being released (maybe even before the CMs version was announced). Looking at it now, it's surprisingly "boxier" than the Toynami in bomber mode. And the chest looks a just a smidge smaller than the two toy versions. But considering it's a scratch-build, it's still pretty damn impressive. And if the Tread/Beta ever came with a big maama-jamma Gatling gun like that, I'd cry tears of joy!
  24. Yeah. . . .that's pretty freakin' awesome. Is this the same dude that did a transformable Red Tread a few years back? Just a general comment about all these Legioss/Alpha toys: the Legioss really needs ratchet joints at the shoulders though. You rarely see it posed with its arms extended straight out, parallel to the ground.
