  1. Not sure why BBTS can't just check on their system to see who ordered the Regult w/fig before the cutoff date that KC seems to be requesting....pretty sure KC did not tell them no one will get a Regult w/fig who place an order for one....perhaps what we have here is failure to communicate bilingually!....
  2. LOL...that's some brutal bar you've set for yourself!....there has been nothing good film-wise from Disney Star Wars since Rogue One....a Skeleton movie would have been just another Star Wars flop...your tolerance for mediocrity is apparently way higher than mine or perhaps you simply forgot that fact....I think Obi Wan was also initially marked for a movie, but like Skelton Pirates, at the end of the day, it just wasn't good enough and sadly both weren't good enough for TV either....then again, D+ is becoming the place were Star Wars dies....
  3. Is anyone watching Creature Commandos? Pretty entertaining show so far. I'm looking forward to seeing how Gunn is going to make all these characters work together.
  4. Yes....this could very well happen....and then D+ will have no series that started good and ended good....
  5. I guess I have much higher standards....I want quality entertainment start to finish...like I have said before, I'm running out of reasons to keep D+, especially now that they are releasing their shows on disk...the only thing that has been good so far is Andor...a story that pretty much follows the same tactic as almost every other D+ show of giving us the backstory for something or someone that we really didn't need....but for Andor it's working...Skelleton Key seems "new" but I am completely underwhelmed by it....Disney's Star Wars is creatively bankrupt...
  6. Well...that's more than I can remember about Skelleton Crew...lol
  7. Nah. There's nothing memorable or at minimum worthy of a spectacle...like some of the scenes in other D+ duds....such as watch Kenobi battle Vader even if the whole concept was ridiculous it was still cool to watch....kind of like good fanfics...same goes for Acolyte...the not-Sithlord battles were fun even though the show overall was awful.... With Skelloton Key...there is nothing.....can't recall one interesting thing I've seen and the show is still fresh in my mind....I have not forgotten what I've seen, there just isn't a thing worth remembering....
  8. Half way through and this series has already proven to be nothing special....no wonder they opted for a tv series rather than a movie.....on D+ Disney has a captive pre-paying audience....on the big screen this would have been another monumental flop...lol
  9. Can't compare a kit to a toy....someone in the market for a completed ready to play toy is not the same as someone in the market for a need to assemble and build kit....completely different markets and customers... Everything you stated as being an additional "value" is valueless to me....I have no time to waste on kit building and more importantly, I collect macross TOYS not kits...so again, no value whatsoever in kits for me.... For you, it's different, you apparently have the time for kit building...so good for you...not my thing, even if I did have the time or was willing to spend any of it on building a kit...
  10. Good point....it would be nice for KC to release a "deluxe" 6" version someday.....
  11. Can't really compare a kit with a toy....I personally do not have time to waste building kits....plus it would take more money to build it to match the exterior details of the KC.....it's not just the price of the kit.....guessing most collectors of toys place a higher value on a finished product than something that requires a lot of time to build correctly....and as they say...time is money
  12. Right....they said they would be shipped with no additional shipping charges...maybe this only applies to folks that purchased straight from KC?
  13. ....dark science...cloning....secret sh!t only the Sith knew!!!!...more available at AT-AT-Aladdin!
  14. They are and have been doing that retroactively since the first D+ series debuted....it's like they didn't want to be accused of rehashing the EU to create the entire storyline for the PT....but they more or less did...just changed around some of the names and settings....in the end it's all about the return of Palpatine....heck they even brought back Thrawn!....Hopefully, but I seriously doubt it....the Ahsoka show goes on a different path away from the Skywalker Saga and re-emerges to combine with the upcoming Rey movies, which really need to become their own thing...perhaps dealing with whatever new threat is revealed by Asokha & Co.... Who am I kidding!....Ahsoka will also just lead straight into TROS....lol
  15. Exactly....just bad writing....somehow
  16. Yep.....and the next big event in this part of the "Skywalker Saga" is the return of Palpatine.....somehow
  17. You are over-thinking things....it doesn't need to be significant or important...it just has to lead toward Palpatine's return...by default, it already does...every D+ Star Wars show has, Lucasfilm can't help it or just has no idea how not to....
  18. Maybe the 'gag' required a 'Commander-type' Zentran for this scene.....
  19. I feel there is some potential for this...for example, Zentran designed to pilot the Glaug would be bigger...not necessarily bigger mecha within the same type of mecha....I believe the Protoculture specifically designed the Zentran as per the roles needed for then to fill...thus the wide range of sizes among their soldiers and commander types...again, this works for my head canon....
  20. Yep....like I said, when earth finally made it inside the crashed ship, they would have seen that everything was built for a certain sized being to walk within it...such as the huge doors seen by Hikaru and Minmay when they got stuck within the SDF-1....it would have made no sense to then design the VF-1's battroid configuration to be at a disadvantage to whatever the 'avaerage' size that was estimated by the 'top men' involved with the development of the VF....at least that's my head canon...LOL
  21. Exactly....nothing shown in the TV shows, OVAs, and films can be taken as fact.... "In-Universe" it would make no sense for Humanity to develop fighting machines that, based on the data gathered within the crashed ASS-1, would have put us at such an extreme size disadvantage to a potential alien adversary...
