yeah I'm not down with these pearlized and clear plastics they're using...

Meh, I guess it's not too bad...I've certainly seen worse.

Now I sure hope they do a Binaltech or Masterpiece version of ol' Megs. That should turn out much better.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I've already had my feast and now...I'm........sleeeepy.

Time for a T-Day snooze!

Thanks for the pics Omni! I'm so happy it's coming with the old style hands (I want my valks to match dammit). The pilot looks lightyears better too! I'm getting very excited about this release!

What is that dark spot on the center of the visor?

I have completed a very successful transaction with indigofx28. Prompt and courteous communication, fast shipping, and rock-solid packing. I certainly couldn't have asked for a better seller. Thanks indigo...you rule!

I finally have a JM!!!

Geez down with soccer moms and all the mountain-out-of-a-molehill jerks. Stuff like that gets my blood boiling.

For my part, if my wife and I decide to have kids I promise all of you that that kid will have all the "violent" and "choke hazard" toys he/she wants, and you know what?......the child will turn out a peace-loving individual with high morals and no need to make the world a more irritating place like these people.

I don't buy into their theory at all. I grew up playing with toy guns and "violent" toys. I watched rated R movies at a tender age.....and I'm one of the most non-aggresive compassionate people you would meet. Same goes for about 99.9% of my friends I've known since my youth.

It's pretty clear to me now with this new round of pic that the Takara will indeed have the long 'stacks and no battle damage. I hate to see the people who are purchasing Hasbro loose out, but I think this is the way it's gonna be.

Better packaging, no neutering, paper trailer.....definently worth the extra 25 to me

That Hasbro packaging is a freakin' buzz-kill.... I need quality presentations!

Without a doubt, Hound will be mine. Binaltech rules! I'm so happy this quality line finally came out.

Edit: does anyone have pics of the old G1 Hound? I cannot seem to remember what he looked like.....

Hmmm...if it were separate I would possibly get it. Sold as a pack.....forget it. I'm done with 1/60's, but I do want GBP.

Are you sure about that?

First of all, can anybody confirm what show or where exactly these pics were taken from?---The reason I ask is if you look carefully, the placard at the top of the display case, in the first pic, has "TAKARA" on it. AND the third pic placard has "MAST" which I am assuming is part of "MASTER PIECE". IIRC, this is the (working?) title Takara is using for their version, while Hasbro is going with "20th Anniversary". I hope I'm wrong but this is really disturbing...

If you'll notice in the picture there are two versions of Prime. The robot mode has the battle damage and short stacks, and the truck mode has no damage and larger stacks.

I'm still betting the Takara will look like the truck mode version....

Oh , I almost forgot Ghost from Mars (or something like that) , starring Ice Cube (WTH is he gonna understand he ain´t a movie star ? ). This POS is the most horrible monstrosity you could ever let yourself suffer for, it made me want to cut my balls off with a fork and set them in fire just to have a light to find the exit door  DON¨T EVER MIX ZOMBIES , RAPPERS AND SPACE SETTINGS 

I actually kinda liked that one

I'll start with some obvious ones...

The Phantom Menace....which is more life-like, the backgrounds, the actors, or the witty dialogue?

Battlefield Earth....hoark-fest deluxe

Lost in Space (the remake)...why ruin a completely sub-standard tv show in the 1st place?

Edit: Oooh I thought of the worst one for me....but it's more of a mini-series...

did anyone see that lame British verson of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy?

That almost made me cry it was so bad....poor Douglas Adams

- VINCENT and BOB from The Blackhole

Whoa! That would be a easy and kick-as$ scratch-build! hmmmm....

I haven't thought of those droids in a long time. What was the evil robots name? Maxwell or something?

Anymore?!? How 'bout Number 5 from Short Circuit *gag*.... "Number 5 alive Stephanie!"

Nice find! I haven't seen that before. I hope the 1/48 line stays strong for a long time to come.....or at least until they release a VF-1A cannon fodder!

....I don't understand what you did to cause this

by the way Veifwan, what do you think of Arcee? Yeah I know...wait till they slap some paint on her.

I invariably think these statues look the best in their "proto" grey state. So yeah, I'd just have to wait and see...

Please post any current pics you have!

Edit: NM you already posted that! Yeah, I really think Palisades has pooled some major talent in their sculpts....I really don't know where this Optimus came from...and what's the deal with him and Meg destroying their respective logos?....if I was OP, I'd be treading lightly...

Yeah I can't say much for this one....must have been an intern.

It just looks mis-proportioned to me.

First, he looks like a rabbit, and 2nd his pose looks like he's about to grip his chest in a fatal heart attack. !No Bueno!

From what I've seen, Palisades has some major talent in their sculpting dept.

I've always came away impressed...just look at their Alien Queen.

Definently a company to watch out for...

WOW....

That is gorgeous!

Has there been any rumors that OP's trailer will be made? It'd be friggin huge....like 15" or so. With the ingenuity that's been going into the new line, I'm sure they could make it transform into something amazing.

Huh huh huh....that would be cool.

HAR HAR!!!!

That is one funny site!

Yeah that N-Gage is a design disaster heheh....

Yeah I think that's a pretty well known feature, but honestly I didn't notice it right off the bat either.

I hope we see a lot mre 1:24 scale Transformers.....

I would genuinely be dissapointed if they changed the scale. That was my biggest beef with G1(the only other TF I collected) even as a little tyke!

Takara's the way to go, and the one that I preordered myself. I'm still trying to figure out where the extra $20 difference is coming from....import tax?

I just got my #7 in too, but it is magically sealed shut in the form of a christmas present from my wife. Poor ol' smokey's gonna be crying for release from his MISB prison in the closet for a month plus.....Nooooooooo!

The fabled MMORPG FF. On PC.

After DAOC and SWG, I swore off MMORPG's, but a small part of me wants to see one suceed in the one catagory most of these fail to provide:fun

The FF universe is a cool setting for a MMORPG, I'd like to heard an update from you after a few weeks of play.
