Street Fighter - in theaters October 16th, 2026
kajnrig replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I guess we're running on different definitions of "straight," then. In my view, the movie not being ironic about its setting or otherwise doing a wink-and-nod to the audience is how it plays it straight. It doesn't raise an eyebrow at Ryu/Sagat being able to shoot a Hadouken/Tiger Shot, or Fei Long having a Shienkyaku, or... Blanka.- 49 replies

Ace Combat 8 - Wings of Theve coming 2026
kajnrig replied to davidwhangchoi's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Having finally played it a year ago or so, yes please... but only if they can maintain a relative facsimile of the flight model. It definitely feels like the games have drifted further and further from the AC3 ideal in the decades since. AC04 was still pretty nice, but AC5 and beyond, while still definitely fun, also definitely veered a bit too arcade-y. I think it's the reduction of inertia, mainly. It's still there, but in a very subdued way. ASdkasjdflk. Anyway. Interesting that the capitol city is named Theve. Also interesting that the Su-57's post-stall missile is called a "Parthian shot." This truly is a Strange Real world...- 18 replies

Great reviews so far. Depending on timing my wife and I plan to see it on NYE for a day date but its over 3 hours long and if we can't swing it we'll probably see Anaconda instead, lol. https://www.ign.com/articles/avatar-fire-and-ash-review

mikeszekely replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Yeah, but it's from the current comic book, apparently. At least it seems to be a separate kit, so you can skip it. The fusion cannon is the big fix for me, but I kinda want those gap fillers. Not sure if I'll get the full A kit or just the W.- 9401 replies

Early Sunday morning l finished up the hardest PE for the Texas. The rear observation tower and radar screen. I'm glad I saved this until last because I had been dreading it. All the techniques I had taught myself and utilized up to this point came in handy to get this part finished up with only minimal stress... LOL π. So at this point I still have a lot of little diddly PE to finish up but it's all rinse and repeat stuff I've done before so it's just a question of making time to sit down and do it.. (42 - 50cal guns / quad 50s /baskets and such, and the two aircraft cranes) Other than that, it's down to dropping down a million little plastic parts on the deck and before you know it..... It's gonna be time to start painting this bad boy!

Stampeed Valkyrie replied to davidwhangchoi's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
AC7 was... well it wasn't Assault Horizon at least. It was not good enough to keep my interest till the end. there I said it. The plot, the DLC nonsense.. I'm not holding my breath with 8, will wait for it to be out awhile before I decide to take the plunge.- 18 replies

That gun handle attachment just looks stupid. And is it me, or does the original shoulders look better than the bulkier ones on the upgrade kit?- 9401 replies

Oh yeah fun will be had, I saw the rivalry between this and the second Mortal Kombat movie is picking up, that first reboot movie was just okay, I'm looking forward to Street Fighter far more then MK2.- 49 replies

Thanks, that one jumped out at me as well. I have half an idea for a B/D/G style head and/or a two seater trainer version, but those will have to wait until I get through a few other things. In the meanwhile, updated the google link to add the 24F model for anyone who wants to play with it. Enjoy! https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1MEqAULkJDzBoGyFBrgRHBX7C7_ZVdfcg?usp=sharing

How do those work? Are they pre-printed cards and the artist signs them? Or are they drawn by hand? I've only ever seen an old picture of Miyatake signing a bunch of pre-rendered cards (the only one I own) I assume there are both types, how do you tell which is which?

Hello Fellow Macross fans, I'm new to shikishi collecting and was hoping for some opinions on this one by Mikimoto. https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/c1211283534 Any thoughts on the authenticity of the signature and or the art? Your opinions are appreciated. Thanks!

I never could have imagined the armor could be even mounted on the leg like that. I mean they had to take the thing out of the box to shoot it for the display right? There is some sort of reference!? Looks like its about to install some some laminate flooring.
