  1. It’s kinda amusing that the knock-offs (back row middle) show no yellowing whatsoever, while the official Hasbro releases yellowed like no one’s business:
  2. Since Milia is in her Q-Rau suit, shouldn’t her stand also be one of the bigger ones?
  3. So, was dorking around the MW galleries and came across this custom by @miriya: Not exactly the blood red and color scheme of that Axoid. But very similar.

    Joy of the hunt?

    Funny you should mention customs, because I think that’s where I get the most “joy” from nowadays. Whether it’s a slight tweak or a complete repaint and overhaul, I find myself gravitating back to those custom pieces I’ve done over the years. Remembering the challenges, all the thought and choices that went into the design, and the exhilaration of seeing all the work finally coming together in the finished product.
  5. When something said is so confusing, unexpected, illogical, and/or asinine, this is my go to reaction: But I also like this one for something so ridiculously awesome that you can only react this way:
  6. Dammit, who allowed The Expanse’s Jules-Pierre Mao to mess with the protomolecule again?! 🤪 https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/the-expanse-trends-jupiter.html
  7. Cake, you say? A fun cover that they unquestionably made their own:

    Joy of the hunt?

    Nah, the toy hunts have become utter garbage the past decade. Even when I was toy hunting in earnest, I’d be hitting up multiple spots to get one or two action figures. Now, you’d be lucky to find anything other than peg warmers at most brick-and-mortar stores. Add in the price of gas and the more limited time I have, and it’s just no longer worth it. Regarding Macross stuff, Bandai’s pre-order hell takes a lot of the joy out of it. I do miss the old days when there were a few more domestic dealers you could get your Macross fix from. But it is balanced by it becoming much easier to purchase from online stores out of Japan nowadays. At this point, there’s only a few “holy grails” left to fill out my collection. And even then, there’s space and display limits to consider. 🤷🏽‍♂️
  9. Regarding the spoiler, yeah, those are two possibilities. I just hope they don’t unnecessarily stretch out the whole Jonathan hiding his college situation from Nancy or Will’s hidden feelings for the entirety of Season 5.
  10. So, what’s the latest? About the only idea I could come up with for your dilemma @tekering would be to install sliders or a groove inside the lower/front white parts (apologies for the crappy rough sketches): . . . But I don’t think the design of the toy allows for that mod: Please keep us posted; I’m sure you’ll come up with a solution.
  11. Santino Corleone and Buddy the Elf’s biological dad?! RIP
  12. It looks like the custom head is just a smidge too big.
  13. Someone posted this on another board I frequent. Article with the original writer back when Obi was planned to be a film: https://thedirect.com/article/obi-wan-kenobi-commander-cody-scrapped-role-exclusive Some interesting ideas here and there, showing once again the shortcomings of the TV series’ writer.
  14. Maybe Gate has a fiancé that dies on the way to Earth. And then when she lands, she experiences her first ever thunderstorm.
  15. I’m sure they’ll just use existing molds and maybe add a part or two for the new Ride Armors. But yeah, I’d rather see the Tread get released first.
  16. The shoulders on the SDF-1 also sit too high up in Attacker too. Yeah. . . self-transforming and all that. . . . But we do need an updated, large scale TV style Macross.
  17. What if they go with the black and neon green of Version 2 Cy-Kill?
  18. If they had showed her being honestly conflicted about hurting Leia during one of Leia’s numerous captures, it could have helped sell her storyline better. Reva can be ruthless and angry about other things, but show her being uneasy when witnessing kids getting hurt. Also I’ve been wondering if having Obi be the one to get captured and sent to Inquisitor-Land (instead of Leia) would have made for a better story. There is a possible Season 2 idea out there using existing material, but I don’t think anyone wants another story involving Sand People and flashbacks. And other than being a cool story, what would it teach us about Obi and his growth into the Jedi we see in ANH?
  19. Just finished Episode 8. Lotta set-up, and am I the only one saying, “Nope” to a lot of the Hawkins crew’s plans? The Duffers are definitely setting up the table for some death, with all the quiet character bits, so let’s see if they can deliver. Lastly, EDIT: Yeah, that was a satisfying end to the season.
  20. I find the lack of sizzling steak and pineapple salad most disturbing. I hear those two items are TO DIE for.
