    MP-scaled, IDW inspired Menasor is coming our way. Very ambitious, but I'm still very cautious about these super scaled combiners and their durability. But all that will go out the window if a new Superion is announced .

    Great story and toys that actually looked like their stylized toon counterparts. I admit I initially thought the designs were crap, but the show grew on me. If you watch it to the end, expect some loose threads that were tragically left unexplored.
  3. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Yes, Double Dragon deserves more than the ulra crappy next gen remakes.
  4. Valkyrie Hunter D
    I'm thinking Shogo needs to be a lot bigger.

    If completed, it's gonna have bald eagles wearing aviator sunglasses with guns coming out of their mouths for shoulders. Your argument is invalid!
  6. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Well, it does have a tank mode. I'll probably hang on to Apollyon as well. I just wish an official MP Megs 2.0 would come out already. This. Many times this.

    Inferno is a must have for me. And now X-transbots doesn't want to be outdone. Along with their Galvatron.

    CHVRCHES' newest single from their latest upcoming Album, Every Open Eye:

    Lol, it was inevitable-comparisons will always be made between the two. 1/6 scale helmet? Don't forget the cello!

    +1 Just keep an eye out at HLJ, they carry PLUM kits all the time.

    I just saw the live action version. Holy sh!t did I laugh my ass off. Go to 2:45 for a Daily Show flashback.

    There's one thing about it that irks me, and it was a deal breaker. The whole tail assembly needs more mass, and it's angled way too high: Otherwise, I would've jumped on buying it because 1/32 is pretty big. Damn shame.
  13. Valkyrie Hunter D
    That looks familiar Makes me want to get it out of storage and make whooshy-howly noises again. Aoshima followed it up with a 1/48 Blue Thunder, but sadly only in kit form.

    Yes, Airwolf had a real good dark vibe going for it. Too bad the show went down the drain when String's brother took over. Is that heliport right by the 101? I do the same damn thing when I drive by. That scene was excellent. Aside from the piloting, they did some pretty crazy stuff to get those shots. I think they even strapped cameramen outside a heli to film certain scenes. I also distinctly remember my uncle complaining how the streets were closed to film the city dogfight.

    Is Area88 still around? I loved his work.
  16. Valkyrie Hunter D
    That's when you pit it against an evil laser-armed version of itself with a red two tone paint scheme. I gotta admit though, Airwolf had a sweet opening theme song.
  17. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Yup, that's the one I had. It has a foldable main rotor right? I used to make it fight my Dreadnoks.
  18. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Which toy do you have? Is it the one by ORGANIC? The only toy I had was a huge one I got as a gift from a DOOLEY's in L.A. It was big enough to fit GI Joe figures and I loved it to bits.

    I had fun watching both Airwolf and Blue Thunder in their respective screens and I think both designs are great. It's like comparing an A-10 and a F-14, both are beautiful in their own ways. Dana Carvey looks so young in that show. What really blew me away was how it sounded, it just didn't like a typical RC heli.
  20. Valkyrie Hunter D
    I see, I guess that explains the price.
  21. Valkyrie Hunter D
    You mean like this one: Skywarp?
  22. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Meh, just give the Hasbro version a good alcohol rub to remove the dumb "Sonic Boom" markings and it'll be just as good as this new one.

    "This ship is equipped with a forward-mounted, twenty-millimeter electric cannon. Its six barrels are capable of firing four thousand rounds of ammunition per minute. And that, gentlemen, is one hell of a sh!t-storm in anybody's language!" This movie was so awesome, and still is IMO. I was going through my old files when I found a forgotten treasure of sorts. I can't remember the website I found this on, but IIRC, the son of the man who supplied the original Gazelle helicopters for the movie uploaded a huge set of photos that his dad had taken on the set. These include the best reference pics I've found of Blue Thunder itself and also stills of the movie's helicopter dogfight in the streets of L.A. I thought the album is too cool to not share: Blue Thunder Flickr Album. And check this out, I know there are many out there but this is arguably the best scale RC model I've seen of the beast itself:

    Carl Macek would've begged to differ.

    AFAIK, the patlamp parts were the only add-ons released for the MG Ingram kits. A while back I wanted to search for super detailed 1/6 scale revolvers and shotguns that could replace the weapons found in the kits, but I never got around to it.
