The Target I went to earlier had Arcee on the shelf already.

Speaking of ball joints... Why the HELL is Hasbro ignoring the ones on Barricade's arms that let you flip the front quarter-panels down. He looks infinitely better without them jutting up like they keep illustrating him. Right now I've got Barricade and Not-Lazerbeak. Kinda wishing I'd held off on Barricade for a little while. See if a Voyager mold pops up. Something with, I dunno, hands maybe. But he's still neat, head excepted(I REALLY hate most of the movie heads).

I hate myself for this... I'm seriously considering buying a trio of the digicam 'bots and claiming they're Reflector.

I think it's Prime's fault. If he'd written "Don't grab the handles! Stick your fingers in the holes!" on the back of the Matrix, Magnus wouldn't have gotten blown up. "And that's who you'll be from now on, Kup! Sh!tpiece!"

I know they weren't just going hunting with a REALLY fancy rifle. But it's funnier that way. Be honest, you laughed at the idea of a Tomcat launching a Sidewinder up a camel's "tailpipe" too.

Or Seamonkey. http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/

"Narrated by" is stretching it a bit. They ARE in character, though...

I still think they should have done SOMETHING with Flower Girl, instead of just finding a way for Basra to blow her off every episode.

"Yup, that camel almost got away. Was a tough fight, but I got the better of the dirty humpback in the end."

MY EPISODE PREVIEWS! THEY'RE SILENT! NOOOOOOO!!!! I was wondering how they were gonna handle that, since they didn't make much sense after being (un)scrambled. But... silence?

That was what I meant. But it looks REALLY good that way. Seconded.

Hmmm... that animation-paint Starscream... He looks a LOT better with the kibble not attached at the hips OR legs than he does with it hanging off of either location. Pity it leaves spare parts laying around. As far as the movie toys go... all I've seen is the 10$ ones. Damn Hasbro for making some of them look appealing! My wallet was glad I was going to sit this line out!

Supply permitting, I'll be buying my miniature shrine to Suzumiya Haruhi tomorrow... well, later today I guess. Broadcast order disks don't ship until the 3rd volume? I'd missed that. Thought it was a 1 per volume thing.

I still maintain it should've had minimal protection from hazards. A simple cord to prevent impact with the ground would've satisfied me, though I DO think that a locked plastic box would've been optimum for their goals. Anything other than leaving an important sample completely 100% alone would've been a good idea. Theft may be highly variable with the individuals involved, but gravity is constant. Indeed. The people that do it are at least the minority already.

That's a lot better than having to redo it from scratch. Like I said, even ignoring the possibility of theft, there's a lot of mishaps that could've befallen the thing that would've made it HIGHLY prudent to lock it up, tie it down, or SOMETHING.

I wasn't saying MR deserved it, or the thief isn't the scum of the Earth, or anything(though if I were on the Star Wars board where the news started I think I'd have to remind them that it's a replica movie prop, not food for orphans... they're taking it WAY too seriously). I was just saying that it was stupid to have something that important out in the first place. They placed what was apparently a critical part of the manufacturing process in the path of about a million different hazards, and one of them came through. It just HAPPENS that it was one of the more malicious hazards that struck.

I disagree passionately. I LOVE having the forearm swiveled so the missile launcher sits on top of the arm instead of to the side.

It's kind of stupid to leave a vital manufacturing sample out unguarded. Not just because it got stolen... what if someone had dropped it and it was damaged? I can understand if they were actually ready to roll with production and it was no longer needed, but ... well, they aren't and it is.

On the subject of multi-platform Live... It's a one-way process, right? You can import an XBox 1 account to a 360, but not a 360-started account to an original?

That'd be awesome.

Of course it did! How can you go wrong mixing the insane mech game masters at Sandlot(Robot Alchemic Drive) with the insane bargin-bin masters at D3(makers of such deep thoguht-provoking titles as "Zombie VS Ambulance")? It's a pity D3 could never get US licenses for their PS2 games. Apparently they tried several times, but SCEA always requested changes that either defeated the purpose of the game or cost too much to be viable. Hooray!

Shouldn't this thread be called "The XBox 360 Thread Elite Edition"?

As a combiner!

Ootake should work. http://www.ouma.jp/ootake/ But Ootake is SLOW. Author seems to be going for maximum accuracy, and speed suffers greatly. There's a few other emus, but I haven't tried them enough to give a verdict.

You just answered your own question. They also did Alien VS Predator VS Terminator at one point. Which is one of the most comically overdone, easily-mocked titles a comic book has ever carried.
