    The Transmetal figures were the peak of the BW line. They're what convinced me to try BW figs.

    That's my guess. New pods come with Super packs, or a mid-season upgrade. Both options require new/more toys, thus more money for Bandai. But the single-piece rear-hinging canopy does seem odd, for semi-custom variants that will constantly have people getting in and out of the rear seat. I know Kawamori knows planes well enough to know how the F-104 and A-7K etc canopies work. And of course, exactly like the YF-19's would be perfect. ::edit:: F-4 or A-5 style would likely be best, after YF-19.

    "Father of the A-10" dies. I don't think I've ever seen the missing man formation done with A-10's: http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/22/politics/a-10-avery-kay-funeral-flyby/index.html

    Mike----those problems sound exactly like what mine are.

    Sky Lynx always shows up after "his" deluxes do. Weeks later in many cases.

    There was also apparently a Viggen there, but I somehow (despite spending hours there) missed it.

    In the spirit of Macross Delta, I'm going to post pics of the only Draken I've seen---anyone else here seen a Draken? Anyone ever get to see one fly?

    I believe the art of the VF-31A in battroid mode and the head-unit hasn't been seen before. (was hoping the -31A had a bit more color in battroid, to make up for the pure grey in fighter----the YF-19 gets quite a bit more color when it transforms---in fighter mode the -19's chest stripes are totally hidden and the shoulder stripes are mostly hidden)

    I would like to see the -30's pod or a variation of it, on the -31.

    I'll work on it again this weekend. (Got offer for new job last week, training starts next week----been busy!) (Also, I finally found where I'd stashed one of my bins, so I have everything located now)

    I didn't like the 30's "battroid clips" or the super-lazy non-sliding tailfins. Would have looked so much nicer if the tailfins slid forward into the tailfin-shaped-gaps in the wingroots in battroid mode. The -31A generally fixes the -30's issues. Doesn't look quite as good, but is a worthy trade-off.

    I have issues with my ASUS board detecting my EVO 850, and I'm not alone. It may be limited to the Z97 board family, but there's a lot of Z97's out there.

    Crusher----I'd get the Gigabyte mobo, especially if you're going with a Samsung SSD.

    I still want Idolo.

    I think they ret-conned Michael to be human early on. His ears look perfectly human after his first couple of appearances. That, or the animators kept forgetting to make them pointy, even in close-ups, dozens of times in a row...

    "Dragon" would fit well with "knights"...

    G-Elements:

    I'm working on it tonight. Don't know if I'll finish it though.
  19. David Hingtgen
    $30 for a raw Zelda 3 cart?
  20. David Hingtgen
    My current mobo is my first ASUS, and likely my last. It sure doesn't seem to like detecting SSD's, and/or re-assigning SATA ports randomly.

    Just got back. "Good but not great". Liked Wreck-It Ralph much more, and despite being "just like every other movie that summer", liked Big Hero 6 a bit more. zootopia is all message, not much plot, if that makes sense. Frozen and Wreck-It-Ralph are still the best 2 animated Disney movies of the past couple years.

    I'd much rather see major characters from later seasons, than completely fill out the '84 season. It's already Bot-heavy enough. We need more 'Cons.

    Generally, "Imperial" scales are aircraft. "Metric" are ships and tanks. Cars are both, with the ever-confusing 1/24 and 1/25 being among the most popular. Note: A good number of older Japanese kits are "metric" versions of "imperial" scales. 1/72 F8 Crusader seems a bit off? Because it's really 1/70. You'll also find 1/100 for 1/96, and 1/150 for 1/144. IIRC, a lot of Japanese N-scale trains are 1/150 instead of the proper 1/160.

    I would totally support a Ben Reilly Spider-Man.

    Fix the shield/leg interaction/fit in fighter mode. And the huge gap at the trailing edge of the wing root. Far more important than new accessories IMHO. (Angling the canards up a bit would be nice too). Those three things are really what's stopping me from selling my Arcadia to get a Bandai.
