  1. I'm looking forward to it. It looks good, but I just need them to not Worf the finale - again! Just give us a live version of the book finale for once. And not to harp on the show, but I just finished rereading the Eye of the World after some thirty years since the last time, and it brought home just how much they changed from it. Yes, changes must be made for an adaptation but they really made it something different. Again, I'm fine with that as I have always come into this as it NOT being the Wheel of Time but something different altogether. I just need them to have a good finale. And maybe, some time in the distant future, someone will finally do a live-action version of the Wheel of Time.
  2. The naughty thrill of perusing someone else's stash!
  3. Hyped just for the news itself! That should go to show how ready I am for even just a wiff. There have been a few passing from the cast, John Matuszac and Anne Ramsey being most known. If this does through, I would imagine it would be multi-generational. If they do end up doing it, I could see them wanting to set up a new younger cast to keep a franchise going for the next ten or twenty years.
  4. My recent 'toy' purchase, being a 'statue' of Artoria Pendragon - Saber, from Fate Stay/Night. Just a slight scuff here and there and she needs a new stand. But I like her. Love the armored skirt!
  5. That's a cool looking pair!
  6. Good trailer, but it was too long and showed too much. (Never-minding that I have seen it before in animation.) It came across as a mini-movie. Less is more, chop off a minute and fifteen.
  7. True, but for modellers who don't use paint, it makes it easier for them.
  8. Seen it and also save the pics. With the new Glaug coming out, enterprising modellers can try and make a kitbash version of it.
  9. @Nyankodevice Nicely detailed look at the bridge. Gonna print it? @nightmareB4macross That is an intricate bit of work! @pengbuzz Hopefully it is good for relaxation. @electric indigo I forget the anime, but they have some real funky designs.
  10. It doesn't have to look pretty, or mean, to work. That being said, get it in someone's sights and it's not going to last long. Converted freighter's aren't made to survive combat, no matter how fully they are converted. But still, this could start a naval trend. Why spend billions on one massive aircraft carrier when you get a handful of some smaller (and more expendable) ones at a quarter the cost.
  11. I like her Peng, progress looks good!
  12. But what I want to see happen, and this is half joke/half hope, is have that kid get birthed out of a dinosaur egg, and they're all like, 'well, that happened.'
  13. I'll watch it and probably like it - but where did the kid come from? Why is there another kid?!
  14. Not much for super deformed stuff, but that is a pretty neat addition.
  15. Don't know if it can count as a 'purchase,' at the moment, but I recently did a Late-Pledge for the Saphira statue kickstarter, being done by Wraithmarked Creative in association with Christopher Poalini. They will/are doing a 12in tall statue of the dragon Saphira from the books which looks just awesome! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wraithmarked/saphira
  16. It looks like a fun ride, Repetitive, but till fun. And it has dinosaurs! And Scarlett Johansson!!!!
  17. The first few shots I wasn't feeling it, esp with Ben's huge brow ridge, though I know that is more comic accurate. But as it got going I started digging the 60s future-vibe, and the voice-overs of Reed and Susan were giving a nice emotional timber. I'd say one more trailer and then I'm more than likely seeing this in theater.
  18. That's all sci-fi and fantasy. It'll never happen... /s
  19. As always @MechTech your metal-FU is outstanding!
  20. The color on that looks fantastic.
  21. At last they'll finish season 2, hopefully in a way that closes things out. Damn shame too, as it is more than Gaiman who is feeling the effects of this, as these shows based on his work employ a lot of people. But when someone that popular nose dives so damn fast the crater is going to be big.
