    You can change everything but gender at the start of ME2.

    No less than 3 sources here: http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-prime-discussion/344344-anyone-posting-episodes-youtube-8.html

    I'm amazed I haven't been able to find the eps anywhere yet. TF:Prime was super-easy to find.

    Quasi-TF news: The X-34 may fly again: http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2010/11/grounded-nasa-space-plane-poised-for-comeback/ Hmmn, may lead to new paint schemes for FP...

    Area/load-wise, the Sv-51 is much more of a low-alt striker. Wing loading is highly influential in how a plane flies at low altitude. The F-15E has amazing electronics etc, but it still sucks aerodynamically for the role---I think former F-111 pilots still complain about it. The F-111, Tornado, etc can still outfly most any other plane ever built in their element due to their skinny, highly-loaded wings. Every delta-winged plane ever sucks in this category. (when's the last time you saw a low-alt strike by a delta?)

    Thought I had: Early on, it seemed every other ep was Chloe using the swapping-stones to visit her mom. Eli's mom recently got to visit him as a "life-saving" one time thing. So why haven't they allowed Chloe's mom to come on board to see her one last time? Does her mom even know what's going on?

    The F-22 that recently crashed was 06-4125, the 525th commander's plane, and my personal fave F-22. In other news, the last Harrier flew off the Ark Royal. The Royal Naval will now have no fixed-wing capability until the F-35 is in service.

    The first promo pic for the next ep is a hell of a spoiler---unless I'm remembering the end of a recent episode wrong... http://stargate.mgm.com/view/content/2531/index.html

    Liked the ep much more than I thought I would, but they really need to hurry up with Chloe--mutate her all the way already or whatever, stop wasting the audience/actresses's time with 400 scenes of her sitting in her room, doodling equations, and being visited once per ep.

    Graham----Yamato does a lot of figures/statues in their other lines---why no Macross ones?
  11. David Hingtgen
    Ok, yeah, that's it. Didn't do it the first time though--weird. Off to edit... Seriously though--WTF at requiring a log-in to see the freely-available pic that's in their own press release?

    Hey, Raytheon news: Raytheon's Rolling Airframe Missile Block 2 Completes Key Flight Test http://raytheon.mediaroom.com/index.php?s=43&item=1708&pagetemplate=release

    Slightly OT, but due to the number of people who will be out shopping around Black Friday: Remember Toys for Tots. Help buy up those dozen MU classic Iron Man/Spider-Man and SW figs clogging the shelves and donate them. It'll both clear out the shelfwarmers for you, and make a lot of kids happy. Many stores are having huge deals on them etc.

    I can imagine her official bio: "Jinx is a sneaky girl---sneaky like a ninja! Because she totally is one! How cool is that?"

    Thing is, Bandai had already engineered a very accurate VF-25---in 1/72 scale. The 1/60 is so inferior, it's mind-boggling. Toy vs model alone doesn't explain the differences, especially in the face of the VF-27.
  17. David Hingtgen
    You're arguing against a couple more wing hinges, in a PLANE THAT TRANFORMS INTO A FULLY ARTICULATED ROBOT?
  18. David Hingtgen
    I suspect they are holding back--I have seen a case or two of some of the latest figures, then when they sell out---nothing replaces them on the pegs. Or, a bunch of older figs fill the gap.
  19. David Hingtgen
    We need some cheering up after that. Another legendary Hoser story---with a great custom model to illustrate it: http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=218183&st=0

    The new Xmas episode is this Sun night, the 21st.

    If you want Airbus' own report on the damage, go here: http://blogs.crikey.com.au/planetalking/2010/11/17/the-anatomy-of-the-airbus-a380-qf32-near-disaster/ Also, so many A380s with RR engines have issues that they've used up the worldwide supply of spares, and are pulling new engines from undelivered planes at the factory to get the others up and running.

    New CG models means new toys:

    I wish I would have taken a photo of the guy who took up 8 spots a few days ago.

    Well, I'm going more for long-term, than sheer numbers. Nothing ROTF or later has existed long enough to be a legendary shelf-warmer. I mean, BW Injector could still be found when RiD was out. Maybe Transquito, too... Now, Animated Ratchet---I can see those still being at TRU in a couple years...
  25. David Hingtgen
    The blue-nosed F-22 is gaudy/ugly IMHO. (the original P-51 was awesome). Applying "round" schemes to angled surfaces doesn't work... I'm still astounded they allowed the RADOME to be PAINTED. Wonder if F-22 radomes/radar don't have as many issues as older planes...
