  1. More like, THE* scheme: http://www.1999.co.jp/itbig09/10098636t3.jpg http://www.1999.co.jp/itbig09/10098636t2.jpg (interesting in that all of those are marked as Commander's planes--none are typical line jets) Also, a zillion pics at Airliners.net: http://www.airliners.net/search/photo.sear...umbnails=noinfo (I'm sure at least a few people will find new wallpaper from that link) *well, there's always the coral-pink one: http://www.airliners.net/photo/USA---Air/L...-22A/1182411/L/
  2. Unsettling questions? I still want a good answer to "how does she change her appearance when meeting with Leon Mishima?" (has that ever been asked?)
  3. Remko---aww, you should try to get Grace's green one! Green's better! (and has a better-looking pilot, too) http://p-bandai.jp/tamashiiwebshouten/item-1000004910/
  4. I'm not sure if this has been posted before, but here's the live webcam for the Large Hadron Collider: http://www.cyriak.co.uk/lhc/lhc-webcams.html
  5. They could make MP HotRod, and call it "cause of dead Prime".
  6. Seconded. Hers was awesome.
  7. The look of the Old Repubic is well-established by this point. If it doesn't look realistic, it won't look like the canon. Frankly, "the past" will never have to worry about aging. Old is old, classic is classic. It's "portraying the future" that has to worry about how it'll age.
  8. First thing you gotta do is mod the instructions: (not mine, but so cool I had to post it)
  9. Re: red Closest thing to Milia's in the real world:
  10. "Soundtrack disconnect" seems more common lately in games of all type. Music may be GOOD, it just doesn't seem to be "correct". I still think FF9 has the best "song fits the situation" of any FF.
  11. Just like Mass Effect! (I wonder if that was an intentional copy on Square's part) "Faster, and more western-style combat" is the current goal of many JRPG companies AFAIK, due to the relative sales of recent JRPG vs western ones. The actress is Australian, so she actually does, not merely "supposed to". The "weirdness" apparently comes from that she was instructed to try to sound "not so Australian" (and younger)----and what you get, is Vanille. This is what her normal voice/accent is: http://www.youtube.com/user/GeorgiaVC#p/u/6/JVc1JXTQDf8 (somewhat ironically, Fang's actress is American)
  12. He made Sovereign too: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/193819
  13. I find it kind of ironic that my ruthless renegade---saved the entire crew (even Kelly) and was faithful.
  14. Playable Liara would make it all worth it.
  15. That's an old rumor, similar info was found out a while ago---they just didn't bother to extract the audio and put it on youtube. I currently have about 99% faith in it. Since the exact same stuff/info pointed to "DLC about a thief named Kasumi" when ME 2 first came out. "DLC with Liara and the Shadow broker" was found soon thereafter.
  16. It better be Hrist! (though Lenneth would be fine too---I did pass on the DS game, despite being a huge VP/Lenneth fan--it just didn't sound like I'd like the GAME, though the story may have been good)
  17. First and last pics. http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/04/m...allajokull.html
  18. Asuka though, would be exactly the same on and off screen.
  19. I *expected* that it'd shoot. Surprised they didn't---but then of course, how would our heroes find out what happened?
  20. 2nd Zillo Beast ep was kinda meh IMHO, first was better, but neither really up to the standard of the first half of the season. First Boba ep gets good at the end, presumably 2nd ep will be a direct continuation and should be better/faster based on the setup. PS--they brought in Jennifer Hale for like, 8 words?
  21. LEGO Normandy: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/188396
  22. SR-71 engine is optimized for high-speed high-alt performance. At speed and altitude, a J58 is pumping out way more thrust than an F100. Same reason an F-4, drag-hog that it is, with only a bit more than half the power of the sleeker F-15--is only slightly slower. The F-4 has a turbojet, the F-15 has a turbofan. And in high-alt high-speed situations, a turbojet reigns supreme over a turbofan. "25,000lbs" is the thrust rating AT SEA LEVEL for a plane with ZERO FORWARD AIRSPEED. (which is why most specs say "static thrust" and sometimes mention sea level) At 50,000ft at 1500MPH, the relative thrust ratings of a ramjet vs a turbofan will change drastically.
  23. Also, glowy boosters are canon, and clearly evident in Macross Plus. Whereas I don't ever recall a bright pinpoint in the middle of a VF-1J's visor.
