  1. Yeah....both sides should be equal militarily.....once again its the Force users that will determine the galaxy's fate....Luke and Rey vs Snoke and Kylo....we all know who ultimately wins....
  2. You are conveniently leaving out the biggest sources....the films themselves...the showrunners stated at the onset of this new "reboot" of the franchise that the only canon material will be the films, Clone Wars, Rebels, and new ongoing media (which if you really think about it is arguably a far worse scenario that what we had before when the EU was not official anyway....now you can't even expect to be fully informed about the entire plotline of the movies without all of the new EU content via a multitude of external sources)...so to borrow the line from Han Solo.......it's all real! Midichlorians, Force Ghosts, Darth Plagueis....maybe they will include an extended version of that scene where he mentions EVERYTHING....including Greedo shooting first!...LOL
  3. But you are not providing any answers, at least not concerning the three topics you listed...it just seems that you are trying to add to the confusion by making it seem that any concepts derived from the prequel trilogy are somehow part of the EU that officially no longer are canon...like it or not, the PT are part of SW canon....so if someone asks a question...answer it based on the available sources....if you can't do that, then you have nothing to offer....
  4. LOL....that reminded me....in all the years Han and Chewie have been together...not once did Han try out the bowcaster? And aren't those too much too handle for non-Wookies...or at least humans....lame
  5. Yes....I remember Macross and other "Robotech" cels being available from different shops, including Books Nippon....I might still have a listing of what they were selling at the time via "mail order"....they were cheap relative to today's cel prices
  6. Regarding the Force ghosts....Yoda said that Qui-gon "taught" him how to commune with him....per ROTS Yoda then teaches Obi-wan...but who taught Anakin? Or is this what Plagueis meant by "cheating" death?....or is the "Force Ghost" ability the light-side version of "immortality"?
  7. Regarding the whole Snoke-is-Plagueis theories....why mess with a muggle sith-wannabe when he could just manipulate the midichlorians into creating a vergence of the Force within a new lifeform? And speaking of that....it is probably no longer canon....but do any of the books ever go into this "virgin" birth of Anakin?
  8. Just wondering....Why wouldn't Anakin appear to Ben Solo and tell him he is wrong? Also....just got through a second viewing...knowing all the background info made it more enjoyable....thankfully there are folks out there willing to post all of the stuff Disney wants you to buy... Anyway....were those ashes where Kylo set down his helmet during the scene when he is trying to extract info from Rey? If so...Anakin's ashes?
  9. Thanks! The Takatoku quest is over, but the general Macross search will never end...😊
  10. Nice....looks like a hanken...glad you got it...most Macross cels are now being bought on yja and sold on eBay for more than triple the final auction price...
  11. When I first saw this pic on my phone, it looked like a giant pink Gubaba with angry eyes on the shoulder of this valk....now I can't unsee it...and after listening to the review...perhaps the imagery was deliberate...
  12. There has been a reawakening of interest in Star Wars at the jvmacross residence....my Macross budget senses a great disturbance....
  13. But if the Clone Wars series is now canon...it proves there can be more than 2 Sith around at any given moment.... Additional, the new movie has gone into the disturbing path of not being completely self-contained....you cannot get the full picture of what is going on without get the plot holes filled via all the "extended media"....which is the weakest part of the movie....

    Hi-Metal R

    Dunno....but looks close enough in scale with what has already been released.....it'll be awesome...

    Now way....this is the only way to guarantee a GBP with yellow-tipped missiles!

    Hi-Metal R

    I think they started that nonsense with the release of their recent 1/72 kits....it's more noticeable on the Milia I think.... But, I can forgive it at this scale and for this line....plus, the armor isn't exactly TV canon anyway....so I'll just think of them as some DYRL post-SWI variants... 18K-22K for the Monster.......

    Hi-Metal R

    Hopefully, Bandai goes websclusive/made-to-order on the Monster....as awesome as it is...that beast has the potential to be a line killer if let loose as a regular release.... ...I don't want this line to die yet...need that TV Q-Rau and Spartan! Maybe for the Destroids Bandai can partner up with some hobby mags and sell them as exclusives....that would be a fun chase....
  19. So are you saying that before you got the whole "canon" view of the SW universe by just watching the films....but now you need to buy into the books, comics, etc to really get the complete picture?
  20. LOL.....kind of reminds of how another Ford character, Indiana Jones, should have just left Belloq and the Nazis take the Ark, open it, then just carry it off after they were all dead.....hindsight is 20/20 I guess....
