    Yeah---after I finished the HD remix version of re:coded I got the impression from reading about the original, that it was very tedious. I have only ever played them all on the PS2/3/4----but I have by now played just about every KH game there is. And I think it's true for most all the mobile/handheld ones etc---the HD remake versions, cut out a lot of the "fluff" of monotonous repeat battles/worlds, and just give you the "core" stuff with the main battles and cutscenes. (though I think 358/2 loses a bit---that one I think would have worked better as an actual game, and not just the movie they give) My overall feelings of the series so far: They're focusing on the wrong protagonist. This isn't Sora's story---it's Ventus and Roxas's. They are far more interesting/compelling characters. I decided I will always utterly side with Axel from now on. I demand some sort of super Xion/Ventus/Roxas/Sora fight in the end, with multiple endings.

    I think the KO's head-sculpts are vastly inferior, so it's a pass for me. (I put a lot of weight on lion-mode, for my Voltrons)

    I never did pick up a Sandrock Supernova, and now it's basically sold out/$$$ everywhere---but it looks like it's going to be re-released soon. The cloak and "sword effects" parts not in the re-release, but I never did like the cloak. (and the effects parts are blue, which is totally wrong for Sandrock---it has heat-sabers, very Zeon-esque, they always glowed red/orange, both TV and EW) Does any mobile suit have heat-weapons that get so hot they glow BLUE? Anyways, I see they are also re-releasing Altron Supernova, but in TV Shenlong's colors. THAT looks cool, and I am very tempted. Mount the shield on the left arm, and only use one dragon-fang, and you have a very TV-esque stylized Shenlong.

    That’s always been considered one of the hardest schemes to do—it has four colors, whereas most have three.

    G-Gundam has Rain, and the best attacks in the franchise. Therefore it’s awesome.

    QVA-113, calling it now..
  7. David Hingtgen
    Yup, I still want a white papal valkyrie...
  8. David Hingtgen
    Yeah, I'm thinking I'll just wait for a youtube clip of the last 5 mins...
  9. David Hingtgen
    That's what I meant---I'd buy them regardless of "on-screen canon" status, but they're unlikely to ever be made if they only exist as cover-art and not on-screen.

    Relatively, or absolute? I loved Frontier, hated Delta. I liked the first Frontier movie more than the second, but overall still prefer the series. (though there are definitely some good scenes in each movie).
  11. David Hingtgen
    Zero chance, but give me a PG Delta Gundam, since they still haven't done an MG 2.0, and I want a shiny gold transforming kit...
  12. David Hingtgen
    Is that just a raw Go-Lion copy, or are they making improvements? (are the ears normally metallic gold, and not yellow?)
  13. David Hingtgen
    Darn, I was really hoping Mirage’s was on-screen like that with a likely release. Will just keep hoping for Arad’s 31A or something....
  14. David Hingtgen
    Google "push-button transmission". They're (not)awesome.
  15. David Hingtgen
    So really it should be more like "Armed Siegfried" vs "Armored Siegfried" based on the specs/discussion there...

    “Mega Force” was my fave line of the era. Had pretty much the entire Triax military. Loved those toys. http://www.toyarchive.com/Megaforce/Series1.html

    The cynic in me says their sentence is self-evident/redundant——“it’s not polite to be rude” isn’t really saying anything. “Red isn’t blue” and “up isn’t down” are similar statements.
  18. David Hingtgen
    White thighs/waist would guarantee I DON’T buy it...
  19. David Hingtgen
    I forgot about the hands until mentioned—-but yeah, they don’t even “come out of the forearms”——I don’t think they could store there—-they just “appear” and they couldn’t have come from anywhere around the wrists....
  20. David Hingtgen
    Still no specs, so can’t compare if it’s really (marginally) worth it vs 10xx series.
  21. David Hingtgen
    Agreed on Atlas—-the whole “legs” part was blatant “swapped in a whole new model from one frame to the next”, they didn’t even try to animate it. It went from “one big block splitting” to “2 cylinders” in a single frame.

    I feel much better about buying my 1080 now: 2070 $600 2080 $800 2080ti $1200 (real actual prices at nvidia.com—-2070 already pre-sold out) https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/20-series/
  23. David Hingtgen
    Of course there was a ton of shelf-warming, half the line was non-combining lions...
  24. David Hingtgen
    The router is always warm, but didn’t seem hot—-this is one of the coolest days in weeks. (Still hot midwestern summer, but not peak)

    ::edit:: ok yeah of course, after 2 hours of nothing, it just pops open the admin screen while I was typing this. Yeesh... Think I’ll buy a new one Black Friday—-I do NOT like random multi-hour failures... Do WiFi routers just up and fail, yet still seem ok? All of a sudden I lost all connectivity——but if I connnect my PC directly to my cable modem, all is well. But if I have the router involved—-nothing. Can’t even get to router’s home/admin page. But all the lights “blink the right way”. Tried swapping around all the cables——not the cables. Tried other ports/jacks—-nope, works fine if router is taken out of the loop. I have done every method of a factory hard reset I know of——and it cycles through, starts blinking away—-but won’t do anything. PC’s Ethernet port activity light blinks when hooked to router, so the router seems to be talking to it. I’m out of ideas, really don’t want to run to bestbuy tonight and buy a router if I don’t have to, but there’s nothing left to do. (Though it irks me that all the router indicator lights say things are fine). PS——-Asus N56U. It’s 5+ years old, could even be 10.
