lol... damn internet... not even when it's confirmed is it really confirmed. not really an MK fan, but this looks a lot better than that 90s film.
-
Yeah... I think Bandai and Mattel got their paperwork crossed.

A bike? You can get a whole space fortress for that price!

Better off as a cartoon, as it will be from Nicktoons with accompanying toys from Mattel.
-
This is from CHUD: I guess it's just been confirmed as a movie and not a video game trailer.
-
Maybe Y The Last Man was a spinoff...

That's so awesome that you got to put one together. I heard that it's molded so that you can wire it up for lights... Did you happen to see the evidence of this?

Best cartoon ever! And it came after Robotech... GI Joe was Ch. 13! lol.

Obviously you didn't get much farther than this:

Awesome!!! what a coincidence, I just built mine also over the weekend. Mine doesn't have the pilot though... YET! Where'd you get the stand. And white fans! I like it. I followed the Yamato pics and painted mine gray but I like the contrast on yours.

What does that even mean? What's Hollywood's history? Didn't I just give a small summary of Hollywood's history? The ones that made money for sure are the ones that stuck to the designs and respected the source. Christopher Reeve's Superman, Toby Macguire's Spider-Man, and even Robert Downey Jr's Iron Man, as updated the mechanics are stuck the basic look and scheme of Iron Man. Edward Norton's Hulk was a lot closer to the look of the comic book's than the first one and it was accepted a lot more. It's when the movie makers start to make these characters to look more like S&M freaks that they start to cheesy. I'm not saying that it's the costume that makes the movie. I'm saying that you can make the costume close to the source, and then you put people that can carry these "cheesy" comic book looks and pull it off because it's surrounded by an actual story that respects the character and his/her journey. IMO, Abe Sapien from the Hellboy movies looks like the he does in the book and is done very well. But because those stries they tell are so bad, they just lose the audience's interest. And if you check out Sideshow's Dr. Doom... and compare it to the "modern audience" safe version and it's clear that while the studios do have the right to make however they want... their fear of actually making the movie like the books keeps them from making a respectable version of something that they consider cheesy. The problem is that the studios are more concerned with formula than they are with a good story. And seeing how successful these studios are now if they keep thinking the way they do, as you defend them, March... then I'm sure that no one will be watching any superhero movies in the future... just like we're not gonna see any Bond movies soon.

I think he's the first one alive, out of all of them.

I've never bought a resin 1:1 gun... Is it goin to feel like a real gun or an airsoft? Or is is going to feel more like a resin model kit? Just wondering cuz Gallant would be awesome if you can handle it like an actual gun. Good luck with your project!
-
That Ultimates design is certainly cool. But the modern costume needs to lose the suspender straps and where are the wings on his head? Make them silver or something. That's like leaving the ears off the Batman mask.

I hate the term "modern audience". As if there's a collective that approves and disapproves on all things movies. The fact is if you're going to option a superhero movie... make it based on the character that you just bought. If the modern audience won't go for a character just because he has a cape, then explain Batman and the all the money it makes. If the modern audience won't go for a superhero in spandex, then what about Spiderman. And if a helmet is unrealistic to the modern audience, then why doesn't Tony Stark fly around with his head sticking out. The fact is, these people that make these movies are afraid of the very property they are responsible for. They love the idea of a built in audience. They love the fact that the movie might accept them as "one of them" because they too read comic books as a kid. But all it is is the fact that it's easy money and Kennath Brannagh hasn't made anything that anyone wanted to watch since... EVER. Now he's trying to worm his way into the mainstream audience's pockets by getting attached to a major comic book character. you always hear about the douche actor that says "Oh I always wanted to do a comic book movie" then they hand him the spandex and they're like WTF... I never thought about this part. I've never been a big fan of Thor but I always thought the wings on the helmet was cool along with the big fat hammer. I mean you have a guy running around with a glowing hammer and you're afraid to design a helmet with wings?

The thing I liked about Thundercats was that they actually used their weapons, vs... other cartoons that used their swords as blasters. Plus, it wasn't all stock animation. Thundercats actually animated each episode and would go to different locations. That and Mumm-Ra was a cool character. A twist with the fact that the bad guy was the one that had a secret identity.

Wow... we're like the MWCon A-Team... without a van! -
The fact that Bandai is involved with the toys means that they're pretty serious about it.

leotards for leopards! I think anime fits the Thundercats more. The beginning sequence of the 80s cartoon was obviously done by Japanese animators and was pretty badass.
