    Then you haven't been paying attention to Carol's transformation..... She is empty now....she no longer takes into account any compassion or potential for "a possible alternative solution"....as far as she is concerned, if you are sick, maybe you'll make it...but sorry, not even going to entertain that thought...I will kill you now and "spare the drama or tough choice to be made by someone else" no need for a committee,I'LL HANDLE IT BECAUSE I KNOW YOU CAN'T..... In the situation Rick's group is in...there cannot be two strong leaders with opposing viewpoints on how to handle situations.....that was tried before with Shane....There cannot be two dominant alpha "males" in a pack.....it does not end well for one of them.....Carol is like an alpha dog, as the alpha dog, her primary concern is the survival of the pack, not any individual member of it.... Carl and Little Kick Ass are CHILDREN.....yes, even Carl, no matter what he has gone through, or how bad-ass he thinks he is, he is still a young boy, he is a weak link in the group....just based purely on physical attributes between men and boys...he will be slower, weaker, less mature.....who would you want in a closed quarters fight with other EVIL humans.....Tyreese or Carl??? Remember what happened when they ran into that drifter group at the end of Season 4???? Carol changed when she was banished by Rick....she changed into someone that sees things more as black and white.....correct and incorrect.....she makes decisions on the fly without any thought of the consequences...except for the quick alleviation of the problem.......the reason why I think she was preparing to leave once again is because she has lost that feeling of "family" that Rick still possesses.....she essentially views the group now in a similar way that a corporation sees "it's family (workforce)"....basically "it's all a big happy family until it's time to shed some "family" to increase your stock price"...You wouldn't want to work for Carol, Inc.... Carol would get rid of ANYBODY, if it meant the survival of the group....And Rick does not fully realize that yet...... Does doing things Carol's way work...sure.....until her way of doing things directly impacts or threatens you or your family....she is actually very lucky that Tyreese did not kill her....

    Now we actually know how much more we are paying for an Arcadia VF-1 v. a Yamato VF-1.... Seems like they are up-charging a heck of a lot more for the VF-1's, than they did for the VF-19 Kai re-release........not looking forward to the price of the GBP combo set.....or a potential VT-1 and Max & Millia VF-1J Super combo sets....sucks to be a VF-1 fan...

    Please tell us if there is an item of Tamashii Nations you want to buy in this webshop. * MACROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amen to that!!!

    Well, just keep in mind....Rick really doesn't know what he is up against when it comes to Carol, he does not have the whole story after the events of the prison....that whole scene where she basically tells him that he was right..."she could survive on her own"....means she is back because she wants to be not because she needs to be....additionally, Tyreese specifically decided not to mention what she did with the "crazy" girl.....not sure what Rick would think of that, but to me, it means Carol will do whatever it takes for the preservation of her "family"....she will never be weak (in her definition) again, like when she lost her daughter.........I mentioned it before...she has become very much like Shane, basically an alpha male-type in direct competition with Rick on the best way to lead the group and on what actions are acceptable in support of the group's preservation....unlike Rick.....she would not hesitate at sacrificing a member of the "family".....she has done it twice already without asking for anyone's opinion.....I am not sure I would want to have someone in my group like that, especially when I have a very vulnerable member of my family in the group.... Also, it sure looked like Carol was ready to ditch the group until Darryl showed up.... I find the direction of the story interesting......the set of characters that are being brought together.....Beth, Carol and Darryl.....the Walking Dead Love Triangle of sorts.......nothing good can come out of that......

    Macross DYRL teaser promo poster....
  9. jvmacross
    Yep, that was my point about how having her in the group and her somehow "no hassle, no whining, no screaming, no crying" is so unrealistic....especially when they seem to portray the walkers as being very sensitive to sounds.....she would be basically a constant dinner bell.....and probably start making Carol think about "the good of the group".... tell me about it!

    Maybe you've never been a dad or just forgot...the emotional range of babies is either happy or not happy...with being healthy helping to keeping them happy most of the time!

    It's the latest "little giant"....now with OT!!!!!
  12. jvmacross
    evilcat005.....anymore hints from MasterMade on their next transforming Macross release? I surely hope it is not another SuperDeformed product!! Of course, non-transforming 1/60 scale enemy Macross mecha would suit me just fine too!!! Maybe it is time for another poll? "Vote for the next non-transforming 3P Macross release!"
  13. jvmacross
    Dunno. Anything is possible with this show.... Anyway, I hope they were able to find alot of baby formula in that pantry!!! To be honest, keeping a baby happy/healthy in their "world" is probably the most unrealistic aspect of the entire show....I've seen kids unhappy at Disneyland!!!! (yes, I know...it's a show that is already stretching the realms of possibility.....blah, blah, blah)...

    Little know Space War I fact: More Monster crew members were killed by accidental falls during boarding, than in actual combat!!!
  15. jvmacross
    Who are we kidding.....even if he is rescued and not infected...amputees don't survive too long.....scratch one, 4 to go! Besides losing carol, I also thought of another potential real downer of a season finale....and a way of re-syncing with some of the casualties of the comic version.....a lot of people thought Little Ass Kicker was a goner....I just couldn't believe they would kill off an infant via a walker......how awful would it be if the baby got sick and Rick had to "take care of her" before she turned? However, I'm still hoping the Grimes stay intact...that family unit is broken, but still somewhat intact....it is the only "good" thing that has survived the zombie armageddon in more or less one piece and I think many viewers of the show, myself included as a dad with kids, can relate to that...

    That's because the trick to getting folks to buy Destroids is to make them out of vinyl and charge small fortunes for them...it's got to be it!!!!!

    So is everyone in agreement that the likelihood of the introduction of a completely new VF is very high for Macross Delta? Afterall, every new Macross TV show has introduced at least one new VF to the audience. Besdies, I don't think Bandai would have it any other way.....low sales volume or not.....PT VF toy sales are one portion of how Bandai will recoup it's sponsorship investment in this new show......

    So the originally posted dimensions have also changed? If not, they may as well also say it is 1/1 too!
  19. jvmacross
    hope they include the back plate that lowers when firing the cannons....

    Bringing back a character or several of them from a previous Macross show is like a secondary "pillar of Macross TV shows"......it wouldn't be too far fetched to see it happen with the new series...but which one?
  21. jvmacross
    Nah....the "new" fans should also have to deal with vague and unresolved endings to their generation's beloved Macross characters...and just like some of the fans of the original Macross series.... be left longing for "closure" for decades to come!
  22. jvmacross
    Well, look at it this way....unless Arcadia announces a TV SDF-1....this will be the single biggest Macross expense you need to worry about in 2015!!!
  23. jvmacross
    Too bad it is not being released as a DYRL version...It would have been easier to rationalize the purchase as something "new"....

    Now all we need is for EXO to work on a 1/60 Spartan....MW calling EXO!....
  25. jvmacross
    Maybe...unless he has built several in the last 30+ years..... However, I'm getting a feeling that Luke did not train anyone over the last 30 years...and that maybe that was a mistake....so now he is coming out of "retirement" to save one of his own?....
