    Base Wars? Now there's a name I've not heard for a very long time. I think the closest we've ever gotten to it was Baseball Stars/Super Baseball 2020, the Mutant League games, and the horrible MLB Slugfest.

    Rumble Roses too.

    Well if you wanted to get rid of no talent Divas this is the girl to do it. She has a reputation similar to Vader's of working very stiff. Heaven forbid she gives Nikki Bella a nose like her boyfriend Cena's or ruptures some other Diva's bolt ons. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8fSxPcH744

    Isn't this like the third time DIsney themselves have made a live action Jungle Book?

    That's a laugh. The Yamato's range finders and gun directors were old even by first world war standards. The fact that the IJN didn't take radar as a tool of war very seriously at all really hurt them. The American ships on the other hand integrated radar range finding very early on making their guns deadly accurate.

    There are also premium ships that you can purchase that are based on specific ships from history. For example we have the HMS Warspite which a Queen Elizabeth class ship. The standard QE ship will be a part of the British tech tree, but you can buy the Warspite which has slightly different stats/weaponry and allows your crews to gain experience faster. As of this point there isn't a premium for the Yamato, but it wouldn't surprise me if they came out with a Yamato kai premium based specifically on her late war armament. It wouldn't shock me either if the Musashi became the stock tech tree model and the Yamato becomes the premium ship.

    The company was Palitoy. They also made Action Man the british version of G.I. Joe of which one of the vehicles was a retooled TIE fighter.

    Patrick Stewart did a version of Macbeth couple of years ago. It was pretty good and made me see him in a different light as the lead role.

    That's pretty much the way its always kind of been going back to the days when table top wargaming figures were made of lead and pewter. For one thing it was always easier to manufacter in multiple pieces with less of a chance of defects ruining the whole figure if the moulding didn't turn out right. This also enabled a bit of dynamic posing which if you are going through the effort of preparing, building, and custom painting a figure is something you look forward too. Still there is a big difference between the 6 or 7 metal pieces that allow for things like a head looking a certain way or a torso twist, the 15 or so plastic pieces that make up a Warhammer space marine, and these Robotech figures. The elephant in the room is the fact that I believe HG and PB were trying to kill two birds with one stone by making a universal design they could upscale with little effort to make normal model kits and it blew up in their faces.

    I think the implication is that a lot of people will make assumptions about the robotech legal situation without knowing any of the facts or doing any research.1.When HG made the deal with Tatsunoko they got full international merchandising rights outside of Japan for anything to do with the original tv series only. Merchandising being model kits, toys, comics etc. After all the lawsuits and settlements in Japan this remains uncontested because it was part of the deal Big West/Studio Nue made with Tatsunoko originally to help get them to fund Macross in the first place. 2.Nobody with any connection with Battletech has a leg to stand on when it comes to the Macross desgins. FASA never actually had a legitimate license for the designs after being scammed by 21st Century imports who had no connection to either Tatsunoko or Big West. This came out when FASA sued Playmates over Exosquad and Playmates brought in HG in a counter claim. FASA then volountarily removed all non FASA created designs(including the crusher joe and dougram ones etc) to avoid legal troubles.

    I'll be blunt. Did anyone that was the least bit familiar with the way PB operated in the past expect any different out of this?

    For those of you too embaressed to own bikini or 3 sizes too small one piece swimsuit Celia there is this. I actually like it a lot. A lot can be said for a girl still looking sexy dressed in full armor.

    The same bullshit logic that has me hoping for a mass retail release of an HGUC RGC-80?

    I hope her face is pre painted cause that's going to be a bitch.
  19. renegadeleader1
    Wait that's actually happening?

    I want to go to Castle Anthrax.

    The guy they need to bring back is Jack Davenport who played Commander Norrington.

    That's nice considering like Iron Man 3 and Extremis you aren't getting anything like that. Especially since Fox has all the mutant related stuff.

    The Froggy has a higher overall speed and slightly better turning, but that's about it. The Hoggy has a slightly heavier payload with more varied loadout with a much greater range and loiter time. Biggest difference is survivability. The SU-25 just isn't built as sturdy as the A-10. Part of this is its general layout(single rudder, engines in a position vulnerable to groundfire etc).

    Maybe if you didn't sound like a living breathing advertisment for a certain aircraft manufacturer that you may or may not work for in real life maybe people would be willing to engage you in discussion without ridicule. That and not trying to skew facts in your favor by omitting things or making false insinuations like below. Yes the A-10 lost 8 aircraft during the Gulf War, but what you failed to mention is only four of those were directly lost in combat. 3 others were damaged and able to make it back to base before being written off. The last made it back to base, but crashed on landing due to bad weather conditions killing its pilot. The A-10 was not withdrawn in late February because of losses, it was withdrawn because the war was over by the 28th of that month! Nice BS attempt though. So How many F-16's were lost in that same conflict? Seven. That's right the "grevious cost" you claim the A-10 paid is only one more than that of the aircraft you put above it. Also between the British and Italians they lost a total of seven of their Panavia Tornados. So a loss of eight isn't that bad compared to them. I do know there's no way a F-16 absorbs the amount of damage a A-10 can and make it back to base or loiter on the battlefield the way the Hog can and that's enough for me.

    You know what the funny thing is about that "What went wrong?" video is? The part where he references Alien 3. There's no doubt the film was hurt by the studio interfering with David Fincher, but the direct implication of that is they gave too much control to the director which happened to be a french man who couldn't speak a word of english and was know mostly for surrealist arthouse films and that became a clusterfrak. The real problem with both films is they gave too much control to the star Sigourney Weaver. With 3 she didn't want to work with Cameron again and demanded her character be killed off. With Resurrection she demanded choice of the director as a condition of coming back. She was so afraid of being typcast she sabotaged both film. The sad thing is when her time comes and she passes, no one is going to remember her for any of the dozens of so called serious dramas she has been in. Those roles she held in higher esteem than some low brow scifi role. Sure Gorillas In The Mist might get a mention, but nobody cares about things like The Year of Living Dangerously. No the thing people will always remember her for is the role as Ellen Ripley.... Well that and maybe Ghostbusters. I think she realizes this which is why she's all in for the Blonkamp film.
