First model kit I'll be building in years...

Losing interest in this show. Loved it, but episodes with Lucy the giant butterfy, and the Cats ongoing clumsiness to begin the plot is annoying me.

There's no need to come across as emotional by stating to me "just stop". At the end your "opinion" has as much value as everyone else's "opinion".

Secondly please read a person's entire string of comments before half replying to them. I based my view on what Ridley Scott said, that the expected sequel to Prometheus will further deviate it from Alien. Both from the same Universe, both on different sequence of events. For starters Prometheus lands on Lv223, and the ending heads off to a new unexplored possibility. Evantaully this "might" lead to Alien remade for an alternative universe?

Also the Nostromo isn't a mining vessel, it's a towing ship.

Finally yes, most of the negative reviews are from fanboys, as they mention and compare Prometheus to their praised Alien. Enough proof there.

And while most of these critics are saying Prometheus doesn't set a bar like Alien did, I'm asking what bar? Aside from Giger's vision, Alien is structured off a teen hacker slash film, but set in space with the teens replaced by adults, and a guy in a rubber suit doing what the physchopath with a knife does, kill. Great during it's time when anything neatly directed set a bar in a industry that was still developing standards.

In my view Prometheus has its flaws, like every other film, but it was never meant to be a slow horror or a first person shooter spree. It's about the driving relantionship between Shaw and David, which highlights humanity's need to know and create, while conflicted by personal perspectives just like the Engineers that created us. That is the story.

Peace and later.

Alternative universe.

Great soundtrack. Great CG. The rest was too childsafe for a dark film.

My biggest gripe is that Kristen Stewart wasn't very Snow White pretty. Amber Heard and Ashley Green would have been better choices. And they can act.

The negative reviews are from people that loved Alien, and expected another slow film with building glimpses of tension to build the story. That's where those fanboys fail. They're so stuck in what they wanted to see repeated from a seventies film.

Prometheus was always going to be a diffirent film. A modern re-invention of Alien. The expected sequel, as stated by Ridley, will further deviate from Alien.

Again no ways this is the intended prequel, besides the advance tech, too much happens in Prometheus to never be heard again in the four Alien films.

If you liked the Avengers comedy, you'll most likely not enjoy Prometheus.

If you hated the Avengers comedy, then you'll probably like Prometheus.

Also Prometheus deserves a prequel. Lol

As Ridley recently stated, if there's the most likely sequel to this film, it's going to further deviate the Prometheus saga from Alien. Aside for the whole movie, the ending does confirm a relation to the Alien franchise, but the Prometheus film is pretty much on it's own rebooted timeline. Let alone the technology gap, too much of great importance happens to never be mentioned in the four Alien films.

Be careful, Zombie-ism is an STD.

Nice one there.

Time to loot, pillage and rape... Wait that's pirates... errhh we're Zombie hunters. Still can't we still loot?

About time.

So umm... I have absolutely no idea who this character is, or what piece of media she's from, but I've decided that I need to have it.

It's Ignis. Very popular character from the Hentai game, Chaos gate. There have been plenty of figures of her in the past. Actually Yamato is also making a fully articulated version of her, due some time this year.

I couldn't resist this one!

but it has Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel.

Exactly! Now if only their vicious fighting ends with some making out together action...

Happy Thoughts there... And with that, goodnight my friends.

This is the greatest thread ever! Depressing, but great!

I put my boxes in other boxes to conserve space.

Yay! Someone else does this.

Girlfriend saw the trailer yesterday while he watched MIB3. She poked me asking why it was so familiar. I did my arnie voice and she snarked, looked at the screen and said "Oh god why?"

Really? Aside from the name, this trailer basically has zero resemblance to the original?

Walther WA-2000 sniper rifle, if I'm not mistaken.

Yup!

I love what they've done with the VF-25 renewal, but actually transforming them just isn't fun for me. I actually do enjoy transforming my Yamatos every once in a while, but with Bandai's stuff, I'm constantly paranoid that I'm going to break something, or scratch off paint, or whatever else can go wrong.

Totally agree. My issue with the VF-25S is that it requires a lot of squeezing and tightening to get it back into plane mode. Yamato VF-1 v2 nicely clips into place.

Nice toy, but really does have the Bandai mass-production feel.

Did Bandai have to close a bunch of factories recently? None of their production decisions seem to make a lick of sense lately.

Try Kotobukiya figures. All of their top sellers are once off productions. Their still very available figures still get re-releases...

Must be a personal Japanese joke against the world.

Poland - the only country in the EU that has not had a recession...though growth has slowed pretty dramatically...still...technically no recession :-)

I like Polish girls. Stunners of note. But found them too eager to get married and etc as soon as they're 18.

Back on topic, are there a lot of Macross collectors in Poland?

It was mentioned in another forum since that picture is on HT facebook account. Considering the size and cost it could go in production but probably really limited or just for show for upcoming SDCC maybe

Ah, ok. I think collectors will still buy it regardless of the price, just to complete the set.

Don't know if they will actually be in production.

What makes you say this?

Macross Zero.

Point taken. The Valks there do look more... superior.

Another big one.

The Batroachwing, from The Dark Knight Rises!

Emiya Kiritsugu from Fate Zero! Love his sniper rifle!
