Do the flux bands glow, or just the headlights? (I'm pretty sure the box is even more BS-y than usual, I doubt we have LED's in the wheels for a flame effect, so I can't trust the box to even really be "semi-accurately hinting" at what parts actually do illuminate)

Captain America: Brave New World - February 14, 2025
David Hingtgen replied to sh9000's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Saw it yesterday, did "dinner and a movie" (where they serve you at your seat)----I liked it. I think the B/B- rating is about right. Is it great? No, but nothing's as good as Captain America: Winter Soldier. And it's 10x better than true junk like Eternals or Quantumania or The Marvels. People are acting like this is bottom-tier MCU, and it's not at all. It's a solid movie IMHO. Just not, 'amazing'.- 103 replies

Hi-Metal R Fire Bomber (VF-19 Fire Valkyrie, VF-11 MAXL, VF-17T)
David Hingtgen replied to sh9000's topic in Toys
Yeah, it's pretty clear the VF-19 mold wasn't designed with the sound booster in mind at all. They are 2 completely separate ideas, with "a completely made-up ginormous bracket that doesn't conform to either half" smooshing the two in tight formation. (I won't even say they're connected, they're just "quite close, and moving in sync")- 329 replies

The Third Party Gundam Thread
David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I've been thinking about it too, but I just can't bring myself to buy one "so close, yet so far, to doing TV colors". Just, way too much black on the upper half. Bandai constantly releases "EW colors", then makes proper TV colors only P-Bandai, and only HG not MG. Then 3P comes along and does "almost" TV colors. My kingdom for a nice big TV-colored Tallgeese. Besides my ancient Tallgeese 3 kit built as TG 1 and repainted... *if they'd made it with too much white, it'd be easy to paint black. But the opposite is way too much effort, especially if you want it to look good and not interfere with joints etc---primer, layers, etc.- 2166 replies

The computer and electronics super geek thread
David Hingtgen replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Possibly, but with how apparently random it is, and how many BIOS tweaks/quirks this PC has had over the years, I'm loathe to try to alter anything, when I can simply "not buy the one that might have issues". -

The computer and electronics super geek thread
David Hingtgen replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Seems the SN850X has some compatbility issues with my mobo, so will probably go with a Samsung SSD again. Just haven't decided exactly which one. -
ThreeZero ROBOTECH (Macross) Toys
David Hingtgen replied to kyekye's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
That is the main reason I'm considering picking this up---it's a VERY nice red. My previous fave red for her is the 1/48 Yamato. (the second-biggest reason is that I'm suspecting Bandai will never do M&M---they're already ridiculously overdue with not even a hint of them coming---it would be very much par for the course to make a 1J head, and then ONLY use it for Hikaru) -
The computer and electronics super geek thread
David Hingtgen replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Definitely overdue for a new OS SSD. I'm looking for the most reliable, longest-lasting one I think. Performance is secondary (all SSD's are fast). Probably just 1TB. (If I go for 2, I'd probably just make that my new storage one, and convert my current 1TB storage into my OS one). On that note---I really don't feel like reinstalling EVERYTHING. Do cloning programs etc really work? As in, Windows won't freak out, or python paths etc. It's truly a clone, and everything should work? ::edit:: I've always had Samsung ones in my PCs, but am open to trying others. -
Yeah, but Arcee already has the MAXL's coloring, (and curvature), Minerva has neither.

Proper on-screen-accurate dull olive green would be nice for a change...

OMG, now that you mention it and I look again---that explains everything and it works so much better. It's not a G1 Prime+VF-19 hybrid, it's 2001 RiD Prime (Fire Convoy) as a VF-19... I just might buy it now... (I LOVE the RiD toys---but am quite disappointed in the new Omega Prime---it's like, why bother making a new toy from scratch, just to make it 99% identical to the old one? It solves none of the major issues, it basically doubles down on them). And this should be far cheaper than "new Omega Prime".

Yeah---comparing it to the OG seems kinda pointless. The darker grey feet etc are not new compared to the previous release.

It's weird how consistent it is. Gotta be where a sprue-gate for the clear-parts mold is or something.

No, not the stand itself. Just the logo. Not red/blue/yellow/green, but black. A simple black circle with a white skull and bones.
