  1. I wasn't going to say that, but you know I was thinking it.
  2. Found all(I think) the Resolute figs. Meh, I have no interest in them at the moment. I'm still looking for Trakker, Para-viper, etc. And still need Copperhead.
  3. Official video posted-- a bit of interviews, a decent amount of gameplay footage (almost entirely lightsaber duels though). Sure "looks like KOTOR". (I notice all the music is from KOTOR 2, none from KOTOR 1) http://www.swtor.com/media/vidcasts/viddoc...sourceid=ea2829
  4. And he didn't make her look like Milia?
  5. Hip/leg position compared to the crotch piece: (or you can use the nosecone as a fixed reference point)
  6. Yeah, but few people want to do a full clearing of everything---then you have to re-type your passwords for 20 other sites again... (I know MSIE likes to "hide" a lot of web temp files in other folders you can't see, and you can only ever delete them via a FULL clearing---from past experience I know MW usually has 2 cookies, and deleting just 1 won't fix the login problem--but my web cache is only bringing up 1, so I suspect the other is in a "hidden" folder, so I can't delete it, so I can't fix the problem--unless I feel like deleting everything then re-typing my login info for every site I go to--which is a lot)
  7. Can't let this thread fall down to the 2nd page...
  8. Yup, tampo-printed insignia is decently common with the "Encore" reissues. And it's done to best effect on the seekers, since they have the huge ones on their wings.
  9. BTW--is Wild Bill the ultimate peg-warmer? Some figs may have greater raw numbers, but those figs were also PRODUCED in much greater numbers. But Wild Bill---I think like 1 per city sold, and every other one ever just sits there. There may be 20 basic Cobra Troopers at times, but that's because the other 40 sold...
  10. Just in case, I'll try one last time: The Skywarp/Thundercracker G1 "reissue but with the Decepticon insignia painted on instead of stickers" (which I think is an AWESOME change) 2-pack is now only 55 bucks at TFsource. Anyone want to split a pack? I want Thundercracker. http://tfsource.com/products/view/product_id/161/
  11. Sigh--went over to the SWtOR forums again. I think the majority of people there "still don't get it". Half the threads are dedicated to features that I suspect won't be in the game at all--but were there in Galaxies. (I never played Galaxies, but it's so talked about that I know the basics--kind of like Pokemon and Harry Potter)
  12. The best thread I've found about it is this: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=458725#post458725 I still say there's no etching/removal of plastic, from what I can see. Toys etc sure wouldn't stay shiny and glossy if there was any of that going on.
  13. Except that MilkManX's friends list is full.
  14. I am (with MSIE). I just cleared my cookies again, will see if it holds this time.
  15. DVD playing on PC---just about every freebie one. AVS, VLC, Zoom, Media Player. ::downloading trial of WinDVD, see how it does::
  16. My fear is that SWtOR is the first "highly influenced by EA" game. Thus, micro-transactions.
  17. Sort of on-topic: A lot of DVD's have still pic galleries where you use the "next" button on the remote to switch between pics. But they never seem to work when played on a PC--the PC never seems to recognize/realize there's another chapter/frame to "activate" and it either greys out the button, or clicking on the appropriate button does nothing. Anyone know of a DVD program on the PC that can work a "still image gallery"?
  18. Hmmmmn. Gunmetal Grey PS3 MGS4 bundle's available again, for the same price as the current 80GB version. Definitely thinking about it. Any comments anyone? I *really* like the gunmetal vs the black. Only concern--I know the latest (CECHK) 80GB ones are the lightest/quietest/coolest PS3's around. Does anyone know how "advanced" the gunmetal 40GB ones are, noise/heat-wise? I know they're better than launch 60GB, but are they equal to current 80GB?
  19. No, I get the impression from the thread that it's basically a powerful anti-oxidant, and is "un-oxidizing" the bromine in the plastic. It's not eating away the outer layer of plastic, it's sucking the oxygen out of it. If it ate away the outer layer, then the fine texture of the old keyboard keys would have been lost--and they look fine.
  20. Re: engine detail. Way too shallow. Common problem in all models, not just toys. The actual afterburner is about 4 to 5 feet in from the nozzle. Not "just inside". A lot of toys/models ::coughYAMATOcough:: also have the same problem with the compressor fan---just inside the intake lip, instead of deep within.
  21. Alto's eye piece is molded clear, not green---one of the several ways Ozma's seems to be a better kit.
  22. Animated Blitzwing is assembled wrong from the factory, check it out: http://www.tfw2005.com/radicons-customs/re...;searchid=12256 (as in, they all are, it's not a random QC issue) I just did the fix. Not a huge difference, but since it only takes a minute and 2 screws to do, it's worth doing.
  23. This is the same batch of pics I sent Wm Cheng, lots of cockpit shots, plus a few various helpful shots.
  24. I think they based it more off the 1/55 than the actual series... Maybe that's the infamous moth mode version?
  25. I would so buy Fräulein Milia (Spacy officer uniform, Spacy flight suit, and purple Meltrandi TV flight suit), Mylene, Grace (regular and flightsuit), Sally Ford, maybe Macro Klan, and a Nanase or two.
