  1. Without spoiling did any of the non Japanese ships like Prinz Eugen or Iowa show up?
  2. What the hell am I looking at? Whatever it is I like it...
  3. Let's see if I can explain this... The old expanded universe when it was under the publisher Bantam had some very good entries with things like Timothy Zahn's Thrawn trilogy and the Rogue/Wraith novels. Even Kevin J. Anderson's books while a little cliched were still enjoyable. The continuity was fairly tight too thanks to the relatively small circle of writers used and their willingness to work together. Then Bantam lost the publishing rights to Del-Rey who tried to mark their take over of the license by going all dark and edgy. They started hiring garbage Star Trek novel writers to write books, killed Chewie, and introduced a new big bad from outside the star wars galaxy to wreck everything. Who were these guys? The Yuzhan Vong, a species that doesn't exist in the force which can best be described as Cobra-La from the G.I. Joe movie mixed with sadomasochistic tendencies and a disturbing interest in body modification. They hate mechanical technology and all their stuff is bioengineered.
  4. The only mention Tannhauser gate got was when Soldier was unconscious and the doctor was reading the names off his tattoos and made it clear they were in reference to battles.
  5. This Mark Hamill thing reminds me of what happened to Shia Lebouf and The Crystal Skull. He was open about his distaste for it and was basically warned to shut up or else by Harrison Ford of all people.
  6. Sorry guys, I'm usually more articulate than that. It's peak season now and I'm putting in 60+ hours a week so the few times I've been able to post here have been when I'm on break or on the verge of falling asleep. Anyways this is the kit I'm talking about. I've built it and it's not very good. I do have to disagree with Kakarot that if you want a HG Strike Dagger you should get the 105 or Slaughter Dagger instead. The kits while being descended from the Strike have too many different parts, it would be like telling someone who wanted a HGUC ground GM before it was released to build the HGUC Blue Destiny Unit 01. Yeah its close to it, but its not it.
  7. Every time I see someone talk about SEED, I'm reminded they never made any model kits outside of a crappy non grade for the Strike Dagger. That and SEED is a mostly an annoying rehash of Original Gundam from 1979 with more obnoxious characters and idiotic factions.
  8. Yeah... What you said isn't much better especially in today's social climate.
  9. Best MRE's I ever had were the spaghetti ones and one called "buttered noodles". It's been 18 years but I'm still trying to find the buttered noodles ones again. I just haven't found anything like it in grocery stores.
  10. They changed this back when they first launched the website in the early 2000s. It's not anything new. The miniatures game even used the SDF:M.
  11. I don't know man there's something about when non Japanese artists and sculptors try to copy the anime look and can't quite pull it off that turn me off.
  12. Here's the transcript from the HG v FASA lawsuit that spun off from the lawsuit FASA brought against Playmates toys and their Exosquad line, that they also lost. http://www.kaempen.org/alex/harmony_gold_v._fasa.html If you want I can provide context and background if you have any questions about the various lawsuits.
  13. Oda Non has become one of my favorite erotic artists, right up there with Hiroki Yagami, Sei Shoujo, and to a lesser extent Shunya Yamashita.
  14. Yes she comes with an alternate set of legs. At that point they should have just made it a separate figure.
  15. Needs Shunya Yamashita's Poison figure to go with that.
  16. You're not missing anything, just what looks to be a behind the scenes pic of three dudes standing around a work table.
  17. I just finished helping my 9 year old nephew build his first kit! A Petitgguy chocolate version.
  18. Oh god. They went full robotjox with it?
  19. I bought the toy of this thing. It has two left hands.
  20. You know what I would find hilarious? We find out Captain Phasma is Finn's mother in a big reveal during their duel and it's Grace Jones under the helmet. What? Vader was voiced by James Earl Jones and had a white guy under the mask.
