David Hingtgen replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Neat, but considering CHUG Cyclonus and "Warbot Defender" both seem unlikely to be done in the MP line.- 17353 replies

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
David Hingtgen replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I want, and have always wanted, a G1 Ultra Magnus that is designed from scratch to be solely Ultra Magnus. Not "let's take an existing Prime and work around him to try to armor him up to look like Magnus". "Toon-appearance Magnus" should be the original goal, make everything else work around that. The cab frankly doesn't need to play any part in robot mode, and frankly shouldn't. Other than to have the head pop out of. (and there shouldn't be a smaller OP head inside, just a big UM head) Plus, I demand a quasi-realistic car-carrier trailer. It's the #1 reason I like RiD Magnus so much in vehicle mode---it's the most realistic car-carrier Magnus ever, and one of the best TF trucks period. (it looks and works even better when it's properly transformed--which is rarely photographed)- 17353 replies

Are there any known differences among the VF-4 variants, other than POSSIBLY the head? (since the G-version seems to exist with both known head types, like the VF-27B)

Based on that deleted scene list, they cut out like half of Maria Hill's screen time.

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread
David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I currently own nothing, but plan to buy Super Ion. (especially since my budget for 2012 from Hasbro is basically zero---I'm getting JP-release Sideswipe from Takara, but that'll be it I think for official stuff---since FOC Bruticus sucks and sucks hard, and Prime Knockout is simply painted WRONG)- 9325 replies

David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Still a lot better than not mentioning them at all. And Shin and I already have a heck of an opinion---it's a transforming F-4 Phantom toy! That alone is worth buying. Being part of a gestalt is just gravy.- 9325 replies

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread

Yeah, I'll just re-post the ones that were discussed in the main all-encompassing TF thread. Makes me glad I passed on Hercules---I can spend the money on this.- 9325 replies

An elven version of Ignis? (or has she always had ears like that and I somehow never knew?)

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread
David Hingtgen replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I really don't think we need a *dedicated* 3rd-party TF thread. All previous 3rd-party discussion has been in the main thread. PS---all those pics, and none of the upcoming Not-Fireflight from Super Ion? Of all items, I'd think that the transforming jet would appeal most to the Macross fans here...- 9325 replies

Prometheus - on Blu-Ray and DVD Oct. 9, 2012
David Hingtgen replied to Pizza the Hutt's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Phantom Menace. -
Exactly. It sounded awful from the concept. It looked awful from the first pics. People were pretty sure it'd be awful from the teaser, and it was confirmed awful from the full trailer. Avengers has little to do with it. It could have gone up against a re-release of The Land Before Time III, and not done any better. Whereas Prometheus just looks better and better with each bit that comes out. It went from "gonna see it" to "gotta see it" to "must be there at midnight showing at all costs".

I already said I won't buy it solely because of the (lack of) paint scheme. That count?

I was about to link to the main DX YF-29 thread, but as it appears to have been closed with no new thread created, there is no more appropriate thread for the DX -29 at the moment---my mistake, and I apologize. (my issue with it wasn't prices/availability, but that this thread was created as a mold comparison etc thread, not a general DX -29 thread--but again, since the "main" one is effectively gone, this'll have to do)

When did this become a "where to buy" thread?

I still want a KOS-MOS that's *not* V.4. V.4 is ugly/ridiculous IMHO, yet it's got 95% of the merchandise.

G.I. Joe 2: Operation Body Massage
David Hingtgen replied to VT 1010's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
OMG, I actually started reading a few of the comments after the AICN article. It's worse than youtube. I mean, they're not even complete PHRASES, much less sentences... PS---I am very tempted to re-set this thread's poll and allow everyone to vote again.- 264 replies

I have Rogue, but I swear every one afterwards has a worse face. Especially didn't like Phoenix or Liara. (and would have bought both if not for the face)

How many radars can you stick onto an airliner to make an ELINT platform? I think Russia's trying to find out: http://russianplanes.net/id77910 -

All Things Videogame Related: EXTREME VS!!
David Hingtgen replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Little blurb I just read: SHADOW OF THE COLOSSUS---director Josh Trank is in talks with Sony Pictures to develop a movie based on the video game. It's nothing without the music. They need the original composer, period. Of course, considering that entire game was basically a silent narrative of exploration, Hollywood wouldn't allow it to be like that, so it'll share nothing of the original's feel/spirit.- 6945 replies

Macross in the weirdest places

At least they have good taste in which songs they do. Big points for doing "Heart and Soul". -

David Hingtgen replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
That reminds me---where's my Figma/Revoltech Weltall?!?!?! (though Id's would probably sell better---gotta admit it looks cooler) Due to Fei's fighting style, few "giant mecha" could utilize the extreme posability better.- 6945 replies

You mean, the re-release of Ric Olie isn't selling any better than the original? (I still remember just how badly he peg-warmed back then)- 264 replies
