    Yup, though I (sadly) think I was the only one in the theater who got it. Sugar Rush's theme song is amazingly addictive though. (it's not only in the end credits, it plays during your first good look at the game) And I want a Mylene cover version of it. PS----Jennifer Hale is in the credits. And they still didn't have FemShep?!!?!

    Hmmn. Disney is extremely protective of their stuff as most people know---could be very bad for 3d party TF toys.

    That's Shannon Baksa (sp?), the "US" Mara Jade model. She's not the one I was asking about.

    There's more of them than the 757 or 767 now, they're everywhere if you fly across an ocean. They're even more common than every widebody trijet ever built, combined. (more than double the production run of the DC-10)

    I often wondered who was the model for the Japanese covers with Mara Jade----had a quite consistent look (and the covers were way better than the US versions). I assume that's one of them, has the same look/style, I just don't think I've seen that one before.

    Which year was that from? Because, I mean, if you already have Frank Oz there anyways, but you don't have Yoda...

    You could just slice it down to 95% of where you need it, then just rub for a few minutes to finish it off.

    Whoosh.

    An Unexpected Briefing: (Air New Zealand often has interesting/innovative safety videos, it's a hallmark of theirs)

    I just realized I really want them to make a 3rd-party Brawl for Bruticus/Colossus/Crossfire. Brawl's not-tank alt-mode has always bugged me. And I mean, it doesn't even need to transform for limb mode. Just make a basic little tank dude, and give it a perfect G1 drab-green color, and they'd sell a zillion. Even the latest G1-colored re-release of the Energon version still doesn't look right because it's simply not a tank (and doesn't look very Brawl-ish in bot mode) And then of course, they could re-do Vortex, and we could have an entirely 3rd-party-limbed Bruticus... (re-doing the core bot would be a LOT of work, and also would negate half the parts already released, while a new Brawl could use the existing foot and guns perfectly)

    Back to movies, Ep VII will be an "original story" and not based on Zahn stuff etc.

    One of the rules for getting a shuttle, was that you had to have an actual hangar to display in, so it wouldn't be exposed to the elements. Well, NYC got one anyways. Plus---an earthquake strong enough to destroy the shuttle's hangar would be a "CA breaks off and floats away into the Pacific" one which is darn unlikely. While all it takes is a strong tropical storm (IIRC, that was the rating when it went ashore there) to damage one sitting on a carrier----it lasted what, 3 months? There's a reason the USAF museum with many one-of-a-kind planes is in the middle of a field in Ohio. (and they too wanted a shuttle---and considering that like half the early shuttle flights were classified ones for the USAF, and the USAF's own shuttle launch facility in California still partially exists AFAIK, they sure had the rights/involvement to it, far more than NYC)

    Yeah, there is no way I could do ZOE 2 in THAT short a time while actually watching the story/scenes.. (Damn Vic Viper battle...)
  14. David Hingtgen
    Bump, it's out this Friday!

    It's simple---Endor's moon is named Endor. Just like the capital of Luxembourg, is the city of Luxembourg.

    Gah, I should have noticed the catapult bar. (and hold-back).
  17. David Hingtgen
    Random thought, but I sure hope that's the B-model. Because there's no excuse for the A and C-model to have such poor rearwards visibility.
  18. David Hingtgen
    That's new to me. Interesting. Green still looked better though especially with the richer yellow it had before.
  19. David Hingtgen
    Green was way more realistic for canopy color--it's a common tint for glass, sunglasses , etc.

    I figured I'd be the first to get MP Sideswipe. Anxious about the paint job, never did think a fully painted MP was a good idea.
  21. David Hingtgen
    Last TF I bought was DOTM Ransack so I can justify it on averages.
  22. David Hingtgen
    Sideswipe. And presold out at HLJ. He was my first TF ever and the Countach is still my all time fave car.
  23. David Hingtgen
    Yup. All the "official" CG lineart is early and has errors. Alto's especially. Lots of mirroring/swapping issues. So having "topside" markings on the bottom of the wings doesn't surprise me at all.
  24. David Hingtgen
    Really? Please do be a Tamashii web exclusive. Then the pre-order would be open for days/weeks, not seconds/minutes. Plus, everyone who ordered one---would actually get one! Or do you prefer it only being available for 3.5 seconds at HLJ and Ami-Ami like the past year's worth of "normal" releases?
  25. David Hingtgen
    Got my MP-12 shipping notice from HLJ. 1380 yen for FedEx. Anyone else order it and ship via a different method? I wasn't sure if EMS or FedEx would be cheaper for something this size.
