    Looks like that ship has sailed. 😐

    I had a friend in high school who drew derivative mecha like that. Very similar proportions. We weren't impressed with them, either. 😒

    Yeah, with all these ugly (and unnecessary) design changes from Sentinel, MoShow, and now Pose+, it's beginning to seem like they're deliberately avoiding copyright infringement or something... 😒

    You'd think, with all that blatant Photoshopping in their promo pics, they wouldn't leave half the windows unpainted... 🤨

    I've had KFC's "Rhinohorn" for years, and it looks nothing like yours... Looks like they must've gone back to the drawing board. 😶

    Seriously, guys? Am I the only one who thinks Playmates did a better job THIRTY YEARS ago? 🤨 Sure, the lack of "aztecking" is still egregious, but at least they'd bothered to paint the escape pods and phaser strips, back in the day... 😐

    Nah, that's not personal preference, it's canon. The "Fokker Special" doesn't have black ears. it's just another one of those baffling KitzConcept mistakes. 🙄 Thanks for the great comparison pics!

    It's shoplifting, pure and simple. Any of us can take advantage of inconsistent distribution, lenient return policies, and ignorant and apathetic staff, and profit off our crimes on the secondary market. The only thing stopping us is our (rapidly-eroding) sense of morality. 🤕

    I remember those... As starved as we were for new content, most of the Eternity stuff was a disappointment -- not as eye-searing as Comico, but poorly-illustrated nonetheless. Malcontent Uprisings were the only Robotech comics I actually enjoyed reading.

    Mattel's JP toys display quite well with some of your higher-end Transformers figures, actually... 😁
  11. tekering
    Almost. 🤕 And that's what's keeping me from pulling the trigger. These are barely a head shorter than Yamarcadia's 1:60 VF-1s, and barely a head taller than KitzConcept's 1:72 VF-1s... Just awkwardly-scaled enough to need a shelf of their own, and just awkwardly-scaled enough to be incompatible with everything except Hot Wheels cars. 😐

    Mattel's new "Hunt 'n Chomp" Tyrannosaurus Rex: Doesn't appeal to me, though. 😅
  13. tekering
    Oh man, if I hadn't decided to back this I'd be kicking myself right now. 😅 Removing molding imperfections from the surfaces without damaging any of that crisp detail may prove difficult, however... 🤔
  14. tekering
    Oh, I can resist that... ...but I definitely couldn't resist that! 😋 NECA is absolutely killing it this year.

    Double post. 😡

    Looks like one of those Playmates dolls. Maybe they couldn't get the rights to use Nana Visitor's likeness...? 🤔 And couldn't they at least have used a metal chain for her Bajoran earpiece? 🤨 "Museum Grade." 🙄

    Finally, you'll find some unreleased packaging art published in Transformers Vault: This book. It's quite a comprehensive tome, and indispensable for any Transformers fan.

    It is indeed... despite this awkwardly-prominent sticker. 😅 Some joints could be a little tighter, some joints are decidedly too tight, and the headlight gimmick is a little problematic: One side doesn't fit as flush as the other... ...and yet the opposite side won't pop up completely, so neither functions perfectly. 🤨 Still, minor nitpicks for such a handsome dude. ☺️

    And yet, surprisingly, this sexy beast showed up on my doorstep today... 😲 I had to check my pre-order history. When did I order this? Last September...? Actually, it was September of 2021...! Well worth the 22-month wait, if you ask me. 😁
  20. tekering
    Glorious.
  21. tekering
    Definitely the best I've seen yet... but still pretty bad. 😒 The surface detailing is particularly egregious. 🤨
  22. tekering
    Oh, I'd love to paint and weather that up. Great work!
  23. tekering
    ...and the canopy is still FUBAR. 🙄

    Ironically enough, the same is true of The Force Awakens, which (like Dial of Destiny) wasn't written or directed by George Lucas. It didn't have any real dialog or performance issues, so it was much easier for audiences to get past whatever issues they may have had with a broken, depressed Han Solo, whose marriage to Leia had fallen apart after the loss of their son. Now that Dial of Destiny presents a broken, depressed Indiana Jones, whose marriage to Marion had fallen apart after the loss of their son, audiences are probably getting tired of seeing Harrison Ford grapple with the same story issues. 🙄

    Wow. After years of Kimetsu no Yaiba merchandise flooding Japan, at a wide variety of scales, styles, and price points, these McFarlane figures are easily the worst I've seen. The poses, the proportions, and the articulation is shockingly poor. Heck, their AKIRA line produced better anime figures two decades ago. 🤨
