  1. I'm really confused now about how Yamato's Japanese owners are approaching things here in the states. Funimation just announced on their facebook page that they aquired the rights to the live action Yamato film. This is in addition to them already owning Resurrection, and yet Voyager is going it alone with subtitled StarBlazers 2199?
  2. 1.There's never many topics because they almost always devolve into pointless arguments, and people looking to just be d-bags. That goes for both sides of the coin. The threads usually end up locked. 2.HG is really up to nothing right now outside of working with WEP to make a Voltron comic crossover, that will supposedly lead to more stand alone robotech comics. Other than that they had Robotech:Love Live Alive come out and are still waiting for the Live Action film to progress. 3.They have no interest in selling the rights to Macross anytime soon.
  3. I thougt it was going to be about what to buy, a valkyrie or a scopedog from votoms.
  4. Just saw the Desolation of Smaug. A big improvement over the previous film. My biggest complaint is waiting another year to finish the damn story.
  5. I agree, and its hard to call it a waste of money when ID4 made back over 10 times what it cost to make. As for the American Godzilla, I know I'm in the minority but I liked it as a pure giant monster film. As a Godzilla film its utter garbage, but that blow has been softened by ToHo firmly establishing Zilla isn't the same as Godzilla. To be honest I would rather watch 98 Godzilla than some of the other Japanese ones. Godzilla All Monster's Attack(Godzilla's revenge) is sheer torture, Godzilla vs King Ghidorah is convoluted with way too many crappy references to hollywood films, and Godzilla vs Megaguirus is boring at best. Also whoever the **** designed Godzilla Jr in Godzilla vs Space Godzilla needs to be shot.
  6. And the VF-1 has still been refered to as a Valkyrie in Robotech going back to 1985
  7. Well wether or not this movie is bad we know one thing is for certain, Angelina is gong to chew up the scenery.
  8. Sean Bean is in this, so enough said.
  9. I had the Hunchback, Bushwacker, and infiltrator, To be honest they were crap next to pretty much everything. Cheap chintzy plastic prone to breaking, poor limited articulation, ugly colors, stupid exploding gimics, and all around poor design. They look like a toy that would have been at home in the 70s than the 90s. Then again they would have looked inferior to the Shogun Warriors too.
  10. Well to be honest it looks generic as hell, and the cgi doesn't look like it blends well, but I'll give it a shot too.
  11. Just to clear things up 1.It has never been established, not even by FASA in court that TCI ever had a legitimate license to give to them. 2.The Exosquad "Madcat" never made it into production, the lawsuit was triggered by playmates advertising its prototype at toy trade shows. Originally FASA and Playmates had been working together on a toyline based on the upcoming cartoon, but the deal fell through. FASA ended up pairing with Tyco to release their Battletech line. It was at this point Playmates promoted the prototype, and FASA took them to court. 3.Playmates then got Harmony Gold involved and counter-sued claiming FASA didn't own the rights to designs they said they did. 4.In the first suit the Judge ordered that Playmates didn't have any rights to the Heavy Assault E-frame(Madcat) and to stop using its image, there was not enough evidence to establish monetary damages and the case was dropped. 5.The counter-suit found that despite FASA claims that HG relinquished their rights to the designs by not bringing them to court untill 1996 was not enough as it was established that HG had provided a cease & desist since 1985 and had a contiuing correspondence with FASA since then to stop using the designs. After this FASA fearing a lawsuit voluntarily dropped all the licensed designs from their works. Court records Harmony Gold v. FASA http://www.kaempen.org/alex/harmony_gold_v._fasa.html
  12. To make this easier and a bit interesting how about weight classes like they have in boxing or MMA? For example: Grunt divison(Zakus, GMs, Leo's, etc) UC Gundam division(RX-78, GP-02, ALEX, etc) UC heavyweights(Unicorn, Dendrobum, mobile armors etc) ALT Gundam divison(G gundams, Wing Gundams, X, SEED, 00, etc) UFCRX ONE(no rules, all entries accepted)
  13. Didn't care much for the first one given its "already been there" plot and Peter turning into a whiny douche. This trailer doesn't excite me either, and all I could think is movie Iron Man could kill all 3 bad guys fairly easily. Still I will most likely give it a shot.
  14. RGM-79SPII with the backpack off the test type GM from 0083 and the twin gatling guns from the Heavyarms custom EW version. Melee weapon beam javelin. Paint scheme? Neon yellow and black. Personal logo? A spoked wheel with cartoon bumblebee wearing a WWI flight cap and scarf.
  15. Especially when you have games like Bioshock Infnite, Fallout 3/Vegas, Assassin's Creed, Skyrim, Dishonored, Tomb Raider, God of War, Uncharted, Halo, and Borderlands. Truth be told, and you can argue against it all you want, but the game/s that defined this generation of systems is the Call of Duty series. No other game has sold as well as it, or has been played more by more people on this planet than it. Everybody on this forum has at least tried it once as far as I know.
  16. Good god! They hired one of the Japanese Yamato girls to promote the series in the U.S in badly formed broken english... Who apparently can't count either as they announced the 26 episode series wth be released on 6 dvds with 4 episodes each. 6X4=24??? What about the other two?
  17. I think I did pretty well for black Friday. I spent a little under $200 and got Assassin's Creed IV Lego Marvel SuperHeros Skyrim Legendary edition Dishonored GOY edition Bioshock Infinite Resident Evil Racoon City I Decided against the PS3 because I really didn't have the space for it, and I really had no interest in owning Arkham again. Money's also tight this year so that played a factor. I really envy a lot of you guys that can drop $400+ on a PS4 and scantilly clad anime figures or valks all at once.
  18. One main title? Yes! Cena vs Orton for it? NO!
  19. Is a PS3 with 250gig HDD bundled with last of us and arkham city for $200 a good deal? I never owned a PS3
  20. If you think that's bad try image googling Yuki Mori, an "actress" took that name in honor of the character!
  21. So basically Survivor Series was F*** this S*** in the A**?
  22. I'll be perfectly honest there should be at least a single general sports thread allowed on here, but the powers that be seem to be vehemently against it saying its not Sci-fi or anime related. I find that a little strange give some of the threads that are allowed here like the MMA, music, automotive, weapons, and photography threads that really have a tenative link to sci-fi or anime at best if at all.
