EXO

How about we ban the lying mofo?

I've seen what xstoys has, what about you putting up or shutting up. I'm sure Hurin will be here to point out the threads where we expose you to be full of crap soon. Then everyone will be reminded how pathetic you are.

The beginning of that trailer tells me how crappy the rest of the movie will be, but I enjoyed the action scene. Obviously, Mr. March has never seen me surf because that's exactly how cool I look on the waves, right up to the part where I pick up other surfers by the neck and throw them to the man eating sharks... The only thing you can hear after that is a faint, "I blame EXOOOoooo......"

No sir, I didnt like it... Actually that trailer was awesome... if only the movies were that good.

Here's my point before I close the thread as requested... interest threads suck! If the project was presented as completed or if there was something more to it, like maybe a translation project then it would have been recieved better. But a thread that asks, who's gonna buy my stuff IF I ever do it never goes over well and it seems to make the site and it's members a mob that loot copyrighted material. This goes across the board, not just books. So PM Mechinyun if interested... Thanks!

Wow, did you just win you're own argument? Does Macrossworld hand out internets? I'm sure that in the event that the real Zentradis attack Earth, we'll figure out how to jimmy gunpods unto those silly real life VT trainers that's costing us taxpayer money to maintain.

This is exactly what I'm talking about though. I feel that even though we're on the same page about what needs to be done, whether we should or shouldnt talk about stuff like this, I feel like a long post like yours (Js) shows the extreme hush-hush, 'hey people might be reading this' when it's a book being talked about, versus if it's a toy being bootlegged. I've never seen you or any other make a fuss over a recasting of a toy (actually models are more rampantly recasted), but drop the idea of digitizing a book then the need for urgency for the discussion to be stopped suddenly arises. There's like a degree of acceptance here. Toys and models, then videos or music that may or may not be available domestically to the US and then books. I would have rather if Menchinyun just did it on his own and then quietly offered it as a take it or leave it type thing. I think that's something that the toys and models people have learned as well as the people translating videos and offering it here. An interest thread has never gone over well with me. I know it seems stupid giving this away now, but it seems that some people just wont get it unless it said out loud. So I'm gonna say it once and never again.

done

That's the thing I dont get. I mean, the bootleg issue has been around before Rohby's JM and Cap's Legioss (and from what I remember it was funding that killed that project). I'm talking about the height of 1/55 recasting and out of production resin kits. If you look at the model section, there's still a pinned topic about recasting the Koenig monster (failed attemt to) even though Yamato already released it as a toy. The fact that it was pinned in the first place kinda suprised me. I'm not trying to discourage or encourage anything. I'm just trying to make sense where justification ends and where hyprcritism begins. I was in line to buy that recast but backed out as soon as an official version was announced. I got my copy of the Gold Book but would love a digital version to keep my hardcopy in good condition. I have so much toys and books and videos of Macross stuff that I'm pretty secure that I've done my part in keeping BW's pockets from being empty. But if it doesnt happen then I wont lose sleep over it.

Like I said, we should discuss the issue, so let's not count JsArclight's post as "downers" but it is a valid counter point to doing such things. You can't just put up a post saying I'm gonna digitize the Gold Book and sell it for cheap and expect to win everyone over. All you can do is put up a good counter argument. Like the fact that MW was built on stepping all over copyright issues, by bootlegging toys and selling resin copies of other people's work and selling original sculpts of toys and models based on BW lineart. And offering videos that we can't get domestically in the US thru the imacross servers.

yeah... the copyright on all the lineart and test still stands... don't make the mistake in thinking this is all legal. I'm all for discussing the issues in doing this kind of thing.

The Gold Book is out of print right? I have no problem with this... of course that's just the way I feel and not at all sanctioned by this site and it's owners, other members and all that legal stuff.i would think you would keep the donations low enough to where you'll out of pocket for most of the book and there's still the whole, what's to stop us from sending the files to other people for free since it's not yours to begin with. Just stuff you have to think about. Thanks for the offer though. But as for having it searchable... the whole thing is in Japanese... how would I search it?

looks like they're updating it again. everytime they update it, the member's info gets screwed up even though the features are better... thinking about a reboot.

Let me let tell you guys a little secret... the Transformers suck! Talking robots? There's only one good talking robot and that's Bender!

not!!! Great work though...

he has vader hands... too small!

this movie was booooring! Despite the fact that I loved Scott's Man On Fire, I was sweary of seeing this one because his Domino was so incomprehensively bad. But this movie took place mostly in that room where they were sitting around and talking about the technology more that utilizing it. Denzel jumps back into time just as the movie was over and by then you pretty much know how it was gonna play out. I tried staying awake but it was really tough to do so. Too bad, the concept could have been so cool if it was pulled off correctly.

Looks like someone already has a setup.

No idea... It just seemed that he starts coughing whenever HRG is around. I'm not gonna offer any explanations, just that observation.

Awesome review. What I don't get is why you have a bathroom in your balcony.

You know Sebastian... he's a backdoor lover... http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=58...=backdoor+lover

I'm guessing that Peter's cough has more to do with HRG than Claire. Also, when HRG is talking to the Haitian coming out of the police station, is the Hatian guy answering back?

You can blame me when the next person to try to ingratiate me gets the title "FIRECROTCH!"

As mentioned the flightsuit is off and the helmet is way too small! But I'm excited that we finally got pics and the line is continuing. Please they to get it as close to the anime as possible.
