    Promising start. Kinda tripped me up that Omega's Still not feeling Echo's armor, and he still seems redundant with Tech there. Is he supposed to be the team's defacto droid? Also, I was hoping the credits would list Dee Bradley Baker's name multiple times instead of the one credit line he got! Lastly, I guess Anakin was successful in getting that Padme noseart removed on the Batch's ship. EDIT:

    Whats next for Arcadia?

    What’s interesting is Max’s 1A doesn’t have that stripe at all on his legs. In regards to Milia’s 1J, I suspect the Yamato folks played it safe and smart and didn’t get too crazy with the accent colors. They went with gray for the leg stripe and white for the leg circles, the backpack circle, and the forearm triangle. Again, it’s a tricky balance when red is the main color.

    Well it does have one busted shoulder, but I guess that’s par for these toys after all these years! Moggy’s not holding a grudge about getting a SDF-1 with busted shoulders!

    Honestly, I just didn’t feel like searching for every single thread for each movie mentioned (or creating new threads for the new movies announced). I went the lazy route. Regarding the tie-ins, it was pretty nuts how they were able to perfectly time the release of the old Winter Soldier movie with the story unfolding in Agents of SHIELD way back when. In theory, it should be easier to tie the streaming shows with the films, since they don’t have to worry about timing it with network TV schedules now.

    As I said in an earlier post, it’s rare to find a red with blue trim scheme that works well. The bike looks good, since the blue trim is being used to accent just a few key spots. But you know red is the main color. If the mix proportions are off or if you add too much of another color, things can get really ugly really fast. . . as in the case of our VF-22 and its Jetfire nose cone mated to Thundercracker’s wings. It’s interesting to note that the 1/48 1J Max has a small red accent on its legs. But the 1/48 Milia opted for grey (instead of blue) for that same accent spot.

    Of all the color-schemes to place on a 22. Red and blue schemes just don't mix. Pick one or the other.

    I actually have that pic on my DVD box set of Macross. I thought it was a cool pic before, but now I can't unsee how odd the proportions are. Thought maybe the pic on the box set was stretched out or had better proportions. . . . nope. Oh well, guess I'll keep displaying the Hik' and Misa side of the box instead.

    Thanks, Shawn! No worries, it’s not like you told us that All things considered, it was a pretty smooth change-over.

    May not be the most accurate thread to put this in, but they’ll probably push the + “premium” option. So, I’m using that technicality. Sizzle reel, titles, and release dates for Marvel’s next slate of movies:

    Looks like we lost the spoiler option on both the laptop and mobile/cell phone versions of the board. But no issues with photos: Either as attachments from our computers or devices: Or from our personal MW galleries or old attachments: And slurmty frakks crap-heads. . . censors are working.

    EDIT: Re-posting on the correct thread.

    Other than the lack of the 2-seater variants, Yammie’s 1/48 line wasn’t too shabby. I’m just surprised we didn’t see as many customs with the Version 2.0 Yamacadia 1/60’s. I suspect the economy at the time and the sticker/decal aftermarket drying up had a hand in that. Back on topic, I do handle these Valks with kid gloves (after slightly wearing out a few stickers on my custom). But it’s still impressive how clear and well these Anasazi stickers have held up through the years: Along with all the trouble I went through to panel-line these two.
  13. Mog
    I see it now. Just got distracted by all the purty GBP variants in that post’s first pics.
  14. Mog
    And here I thought I covered all my bases getting all the 1/48 VF-1 head variants. Didn’t know about those differences in the TV and DYRL 1A heads. Guess I should look for a Low Viz now! j/k
  15. Mog
    Very nice custom. Didn’t notice it at first, but I like the subtle bird silhouette on the nose.

    Season 4, May 13th "Why the f*@k would anyone do that?"
  17. Mog
    Yup, that’s the one. I only have one GBP armor, so I’m good. If there were to be some Misa ones, I wouldn’t mind one that was like someone’s old “Sour Puss” avatar (for those folks looking for something more on the comical side of things). Or a sketch of Ryuji’s ridiculously good kitbashed models/figurines (for those looking for something more in line with the classic WWII nosearts).
  18. Mog
    Wonder if @Anasazi37 still makes stickers. I remember there was a set of nose-art designs that could spruce/“spice” up the inner part of the GBP leg armor. Just wish there was a design or two for Misa.
  19. Mog
    No Thunder Hammer armor, @Kicker773?

    At the very least a top hat. Nothing says classy like rubber-suit ‘zilla rocking a top hat.

    I suspect the serum was a threat escalator. Without their serum, Sam and Bucky should be able to handle the un-enhanced Flag Smashers. Without the serum, the Flag Smashers become your garden variety terrorists (or freedom fighters, take your pick ). Without the serum, there would be no need to bust Zemo out of jail. Without the serum (and being whupped by the Dora Milaje), Johnny Boy wouldn’t be motivated to inject himself with the super-soldier serum. It’s the plot macguffin that the story revolves around. I’m just glad they were able to add some layers and subtext to that plot device.

    Oh, that optimism wavered a bit. But he kept getting up and trying. They really did a good job of showing Sam earning and owning the mantle, which I doubt would have worked as well in a shorter movie format.

    Finally got a chance to watch the whole thing. No longer feels like it's trying to be "Avengers but done with DC characters." It's definitely long, but a tighter story with more moments for all the characters to be given more depth. You could probably subtitle this cut: Justice League: Daddy/Father-Figure Issues (half-joking, half-serious). I can see why Ray Fisher was ticked: In this cut, Cyborg's absolutely front and center to the core of the story and grows the most out of all the heroes. They also spread the wealth, so that each of the main heroes and the Amazonians get their "boss" moments. TL:DR Version: Bit of a slog to get through, but a solid story. All that said though,

    Resurrecting this thread for some worthy additions. You can probably pick any scene from these two series, but these are some notable ones: Dude knows he can't escape and just says, "Screw it. Time to fight 'em.": Someone re-edited this to make it in chronological order. Usually it was Daredevil dishing out the hurt, but here he meets his match: Frank Castle: Ass-Kicker, no, DESTROYER: And ending it with the scene that made you realize a karambit is a vicious close-range weapon:
