Nice! I hope it comes with a figure and or pilot. I’ll find out today. 🤞

Agree....it was very cringe...anytime you see an older person trying to fit in with "the youth"...it comes off as weird... It also doesn't help that all we knew of Mon was what we have seen in ROTJ, Rogue One, and Andor S1....based on that, it just seems like something she wouldn't do....she always seemed like a very reserved woman...with that said, the showrunners went for spectacle to portray her breakdown, as they probably figured having her dissappear into some bathroom and cry uncontrollably would have been too cliche.... Anyways....it was not enough to bother me all that much....the first episode of the 3 was the best and got a little worse with ep 2 and 3....but I think now the real action will start.....I hope....

It’s that the traditional part is kind of a blend of things in a way that doesn’t feel off, but the modern part is way too on the nose with our modern that bugs me. I get that they might lighten things up a little, but to use 90’s music is where the problem is. If they had found a way to make it sound somewhat derived from our modern music while still being alien, it might’ve worked, but they just didn’t bother being creative in that way. Og Star Wars had a way of taking established music styles and giving it a twist that made things feel and sound unique. This was more jarring than Captain Kirk listening to Rage Against the Machine, since at least that was music that actually existed in that setting, just a few hundred years off. That’s why it throws things off and her dancing just comes off as cringy as well. They easily could’ve found a better way to convey their message both in sound and visually

Ah nice! I had this one a while ago, with the minmay figurine. Was my first macross kit.

So, I don't know how it is where you live... but in the Americas, Western Europe, etc. this would not even register as unusual to a lot of people. All it is, is a traditional wedding ceremony followed by a modern wedding reception. The pomp and solemn ceremony of centuries-old religious tradition immediately followed by an unrestrained party where the wedding guests get absolutely stinko at the open bar and dance badly to the set list of a DJ with questionable taste. A fair description of my own younger brother's wedding, TBH. The scene works just fine. It's an alien wedding on an alien planet with an alien culture... and even then, the wedding itself is noted to be abnormal because it's driven by the wants of a bridezilla who overcompensates in establishing her own cultural identity while living abroad by fetishizing her people's traditions.

Making it have more parts so a DX is more appealing later.

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread
Chronocidal replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I generally don't care for the giant combiner groups, but man if I'm not tempted to just grab that one. One of the best looking chopper transformers I've seen, and I'm a sucker for the type of plastic origami going on there. -
Just saw the new Slave I, might have to pick that one up since holy crap does it make the old UCS one look even more like garbage than it already did. Just wow. I hope the pieces exist in the proper colors to rebuild it in the OT scheme. Might grab that and the Tie Interceptor this year.. maybe two Interceptors actually, so I can rebuild one as the standard model.

Well then, that's a weird choice.. were they just incapable of making those shoulder fins rotate like the Yamato? I'm not sure I'm actually "concerned" about not being able to remove them though. This just makes me think that these will be coming with extra shoulders that make customization that much easier.

You know... a ALIEN(S) themed amusement park ride would be awesome. Disney Hollywood has part of ALIEN in their The Great Hollywood Ride but it was short for that part of the ride.

It was a long log time ago in the 70’s, dubstep was was only a long time ago compared to now. It just didn’t fit. Especially when they’re trying to show oddly mixed traditional styles from old school Asian practices and medieval European dance routines and then the rave starts and it just doesn’t work. Again I get what they wanted to convey with her, just that the rave doesn’t fit at all and just comes off as super cringy. It ends up a terrible scene and kinda screws up the other stuff that’s going on with Andor himself. Basically the one good scene from the first three episodes gets ruined by the Mothma dance scene

@nightmareB4macross That will make a COOL diorama! @Thom GREAT cockpit detail! I'm glad to see a little known airframe get some love! @Chas Your updates are looking GOOD! I don't know the physical difference between the two (I haven't seen Hasegawa's in person), but I believe the most accurate SDF-1 is still the good ole Arii kit, and it could save you A LOT of hassle: https://www.ebay.com/itm/256534032075?_skw=sdf-1+macross&itmmeta=01JSY5XY2NVEGNBSNP5MRHMR0F&hash=item3bba9eaecb:g:owYAAOSwGvRmX3Ch&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA8FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1c08UQTF0BSNandJSTeHQm7GfXKteB94MlA2SxKaFA72So0xVghBq5EjMQcjN94Y4XIeHn7A3JaPyTk3wrTszXaYsRYBmrt4GzRikbL4OfLrHGb%2FtuvnXWTg7GBjdE54zQqOs%2FnQGxX5nncTkx2H5vn4ukBAZC8k5K7ropAb1ewtBuQbspynLWWgZXR1EQejyaPPLPUAdtxccdOgFgrfBZCZX3y%2Fhqa6rICZ61%2BFDAWaLxyq8PHt8hcO1qevRFrrt1xm2M%2FDL2eDPhGBtC5UcqF09Gx6TH8QBH8hGLSikYhqw%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR77h98XPZQ They're so inexpensive now, thanks to Wise Guys, (if you guys haven't shopped their ebay or web site, you're missing out) you can save a lot of trouble. I almost thought of using Hase's Daedalus and Promethius on the old Arii kit, but I don't know how far off they are. It would be nice to have the small vehicles that come with the Hasegawa kit - if they're to scale. - MT

Leagues better and more authentic all around than Bane's appearance on BoBF

SXSW had an AE event booth to promote the series I think back in March. When I heard about it I thought it was gonna be potentially awesome and really wanted to check it out until I saw what ticket costs were and laughed it off. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DG6aHKlvVKS/?igsh=MTJ2dm02OGo0aDJ2eA== I managed to find footage someone took and man, did that seem like a big lack luster.
