  1. I guess i don't find the concept of them taking away his healing factor all that interesting.
  2. The point is that Tony Starks obsession overtakes him. He's the type to work harder when he's stressed and he see's so many variable possibilities that he starts constructing ridiculous amounts of suits to cover every avenue. It's kind of like a replacement for his alcoholism in the comics. Severe OCD neurosis.
  3. People argue with me all the time but I maintain it is the best. It lost a lot of fans though.
  4. Weren't you just talking about great action, character development and stories that build? DS9 had all of that. His log entry there was brilliant and subtle. It's a man convincing himself he did the right thing when he knows he was wrong. Why do you think he keeps repeating he can live with it? He's trying to convince himself of the lie. It's hidden by the log entry thing at the end but it's really a one-man play, Shakespearean in delivery even. It really seems like you're looking for a reason to hate DS9 even though it embraced everything you claim you want in a story simply because it doesn't maintain that "ideal' Star Trek image which is boring to maintain to pretty much every writer out there. Really, if you take that whole show into account. If Sisko had embraced his image of being the Emissary in the VERY FIRST episode he could have prevented the whole thing. Every single death. He chose not to, went against all Federation beliefs and only in the end did he finally learn to embrace who he was and save The Federation. That's Tragedy there my friend. I think the movie was okay. I think he took it too far into Star War territory where it didn't need to be and still could have been an excellent movie. Then again, you're a fan of Battlestar... how many more of those shows are getting greenlit because they pull in huge numbers of viewers? Not to mention that they had pissed off half of their own fanbase by the third season and completely lost them by season four.
  5. HKC took a week before shipping the two Valks I ordered last month. Don't panic yet, they take their time.
  6. If Star Trek to you is cool characters and adventures you must not have been watching the same DS9 as me because they had some VERY memorable stories/characters. While that's true, JJ's version does lack most of the heart of the originals regardless of how popular the spectacle is. There's a chance they will get better. The captains lecture to Kirk about his Dad in the first movie was actually a pretty good start to that. We'll see if they continue. Certainly Gene's vision for TNG wasn't great and it improved after his death, there were still kernels of his ideas there.
  7. I tend to be out of leftfield in this thread a lot of times but the producer . Scott Hardkiss, just passed away yesterday at the age of 43 and he was pretty influential to me when I was a teenager.
  8. I kind of want to special make those Fast Packs of yours sketchley. I know they're redundant given how the VF-4's engines already function but I think it's a great idea how you implemented them.
  9. I'm wondering if the RVF parts are going to be Tamashii exclusives instead of being a separate release. As long as the attachment points are already there the actual 171 is identical.
  10. It's not a concept, it's just the only shelf I have. Yes, it gets ridiculously dusty (especially in New Mexico during the windy Spring Time.) I have to go over everything with cotton swabs in some cases every few months.
  11. Thanks, it's still sloppy. There's some stuff crammed in the back of the top shelf you can't really see. When I started introducing stands is when things started to get really crowded/awkward.
  12. Compared to many others it doesn't seem very large but there really aren't too many 1/60 Yamato Valks I'm missing anymore. Four 1F's, one 11B, Three YF-19's, a 21 and 22 and the Fire Valk are it really. In the case of disaster, they burn. They're nice and all but not worth killing myself over. The only real risk around here is a fire and maybe a minor chance of tornado's, flooding or earthquake (there's a chance of one of those anywhere though.)
  13. I still can't help but feel this is a gift horse in the mouth type situation.
  14. I'm liking the armor mash-ups here.
  15. That would interfere with the cockpit removal gimmick however.
  16. That's a minor gripe in Fighter mode IMO, I really don't see how it's all that far off in Battroid personally. With Yamato's fancier approaches to things on their latest toys I'd imagine they would have had a far easier time making the VF-1 closer to perfect now, however. I'm not sure there's any possible way to make the heat shield attach anyplace else
  17. What's wrong with where the backpack is now?
  18. I agree, I think the shoulder transformation on the Hi-Metal is superior as are the hips. Otherwise, I know some people want the head positioned lower but I find I prefer the look of the V2's being higher up.
  19. While I do own quite a bit I usually buy by what I think looks cool. For instance, I don't own a Kakizaki SDFM VF-1A because I won't care for his colors. On the other other hand I'm a HUGE fan of Max so I have is SDFM 1A and 1J, DYRL 1A and 1S and his 22. I don't have anything from Mac Plus, unless you include the Double Nuts YF-19 because it's the only color scheme I like.
  20. Would you like a Yamato FB2012 VF-4 now? How about a renewal VF-0? Or a renewal YF-19? Because you're not getting any of those at any price anymore.
  21. I do think it's amusing that so many people bitched and moaned about how expensive every little Yamato item was and now that the source has been cut off they're panicking and buying up everything. That's the epitome of looking a gift horse in the mouth.
