  1. Rumor has it that the next MPs will be Tracks and Ironhide. Still no word on Jazz
  2. I just ran into this article regarding CRT monitors: The Best CRT Monitor for Retro Gaming. It's not a bad read, quite informative actually.
  3. I'm still proud of beating Chakan: The Forever Man. I don't think I can do that again.
  4. Lame. Nothing some orange paint can't fix I reckon.
  5. I will have to try this. So far I've run into only two or 3 spots where a buzzer would always be parked. I unlocked several different guns, but I seem to going back to the bow for my killing needs.
  6. With a change of luck this past Xmas, I won a Xbox1 from the company holiday party. I finally put in some time with Farcry 4 after some recommendations. It's a blast and this has to be my fave moment so far: After I scoped out an outpost, I'm about to carry out my plan to take out the enemy undetected from the perimter inwards, when out of nowhere an elephant crashes through tossing cars and soldiers alike. All the soldiers group together to gang up on the pachyderm and get stomped. I then get credit for taking the outpost undetected. Hilarity ensues.
  7. Dammit, why are you making me want more stuff? Thanks for the review and pics!
  8. My google-fu must be weak because I couldn't find anything on this.
  9. It may be a shoe-in, but I'd have to see some pics first.
  10. I have their Huffer clone, which they made when they were still known as Cubex. It's not a bad figure at all, my only gripe with it is that some panels felt kinda flimsy. Despite that, it holds up well in both modes. Their Warpath is big. He's definitely not a Minibot anymore. Regardless he will be mine as transforming tanks are definitely my thing.
  11. There's a Morton's Steak House in Macau!?!
  12. Thanks again, that's pretty much what I was looking for. I've been on a FP Headmasters kick lately. After fiddling around with a friend's Smart Robin, I decided to hunt one for myself. I recently got FP's Weird Wolf, and now looking for the Chrome Dome. Can't say I was really big on the original Headmasters, but the transformations on FP versions are ingenious.
  13. Does the biker-shorts-wearing Hasbro version count? Y'know, I thought the general consesus now was that V1 Rodimus was better than V2 since V2 had the same issues as V1 but with a couple more. I was thinking the same thing about the metal parts. I can easily see the plastic gear teeth from the other leg parts getting ground up against the metal after some time. Thanks for the insight, I didn't think about shortening the springs.
  14. I just recently heard about the replacement knee joints for MP-09 that have been popping up on Ebay. Has anyone here tried them? I've seen them in metal and plastic, but I was wondering if making them metal might things worse for the surrounding pieces.
  15. Play Arts are hit and miss. Due to weird looking knee joints and horrible paint jobs, they've been mostly miss. That being said, I like my Solid Snake and Batman figures.
  16. Indeed, may every MWer get the valk they desire. Or world peace. Or a cheeseburger. Merry Xmas!
  17. Utopia arrived a few days ago for me. I've always wanted a Metroplex, and it doesn't disappoint. While just a tad shorter than the official Titan class version, it's proportions and articulation are far better. It feels sturdy too, I have no qualms manhandling this thing.
  18. 1/6 scale Hulkbuster...damn. People can live with just one kidney, right?
  19. There a few more pics of the Bellerophon (as well as some 1/6 eye candy) on this site from a recent exhibit.
  20. Those lower leg panels and the offending butt flap are what made me give up my preorder. I was really hoping those eyesores would be fixed as the final release date got closer, but no such luck. The way he is now, I could definitely omit him from my lineup. If ever TakaTomy decides to redo him ala Starscream and Prime, I'll probably get him then.
  21. I'm still down for one, if it was that dark colored one I saw a while back. Not this light purply thingy.
  22. I think odds are better in having a 3rd party making a VF-2SS toy before Arcadia or Bandai. But then again Hi-Metals are making a comeback...
