  1. up and down shoulder articulation would be nice too
  2. if by irony you mean paradox, then yes, it's irony...
  3. You have it backwards, John can't stop skynet because without skynet he can't exist.
  4. considering he hijacked other people's "wanted" threads and insulted them when they passed on his custom, I don't think you have anything to apologize for. Personally, I think customs are great for their intended buyer but something can always be too customized, too personalized towards a certain taste. Exclusives, if they remain such, are the safe bet. Usually lower entry cost and relatively stable and predictable resell value.
  5. Not only do the cylons reach earth first but they do so by going back in time and turning it into a giant mechanical planet and then the galactica has to go back even further in time and stop the cylon god
  6. Well, yeah, other than the one depiction of a nuclear blast in T2, I generally look at the use of nukes in Terminator (and most movies) as an allegory and not any sort of serious attempt at illustrating the effects of a nuclear weapon. As far as T4, I think one reason why fans didn't enjoy it is that they're too hung up on the depictions shown in T1 and T2, forgetting that after the events of T1 and T2, those depictions would no longer happen... even though there's numerous scenes in T2 and T3 where they flat out say that the future has been changed.. John saying something like, "how does judgement day happen now?"
  7. what about dragon age? Did they censor that too?
  8. Well, the radioactive dust and soot is thought to last for several months, plunging the earth into a mini ice age but the radiation contamination would last for centuries. For instance, even now, whenever a storm big enough passes through japan, radioactive sediment is stirred up from Hiroshima bay. From the bikini island tests, we know that the coconut trees are sucking up selenium and other nasties and concentrating them in the fruit... we found this out after the residents of the islands moved back and started dying off in high numbers from cancer even though the islands had been scrubbed "clean". So even if we could get food to grow, the plants would just suck up the contamination. Just from what's shown in T1-4, there's no reason to assume it was a full out nuclear holocaust. Large parts of cities and urban areas are left standing even if they are decimated. But considering how everyone is bundled up, enough of a war to spark a global cool down.
  9. If it were a full blown nuclear war there wouldn't be anything really left to talk about. Skynet might survive in hardened bunkers but the surface? Even past the radioactive dust storm covering the earth and firestorms, the atmosphere would be ruined. UV would cook anything and everything, all the microbes needed to make ecology work would be toast. Sure, some people out in the boonies might survive the actual explosions and what not but even if they didn't succumb to the radiation, the UV cooking them, they just wouldn't be able to get stuff to grow.
  10. finished it a while back. Thought it was great, easily the best game I've played this year and single player, I thought, was much better than MW2. Multiplayer is great as well.
  11. I tried taking it apart but once I got a sight of the wiring and gears I put it back together... there's a reason why it comes pre-made. gonna have to do some creative masking or just leave it unpainted.
  12. Yeah, somewhere near end of season 4...
  13. So, I finished making the frame of one leg and the posability really doesn't compare to the PG strike, leg bend isn't as deep, not as much range of motion in the ankle either.
  14. my comment was tagged but your reply wasn't tagged which contained a "spoiler" but I tagged it when I quoted you... not that any of it matters since those are all LIES.
  15. might want to throw a spoiler tag on that and yeah, I know, just another bit of misdirection for our friend
  16. you know... given this is the first time I'm actually trying to clean and paint a model... maybe it's a good thing it's not as complex as the other PG kits... man this is a lot of work. at least the paint dries quickly in this cool dry air.
  17. she was somewhat sympathetic in the beginning but by the end of New Caprica I hated her character.. just a shrill cowardly shrew of a human being.
  18. because Julianne Moore is too old for the role?
  19. does, "WhirrrrrrrRRRRRRRRR" count?
  20. Well, I only have a few hours a day to work on it, basically when there's sun and the kid is in pre-school. I likely will have little more than the legs finished after a week
  21. Really? That's actually pretty tame for him.
  22. I made the feet and played with the drives. I do miss all the detail on the frame compared to my Strike and Mk. II PG kits.
  23. This thread went from being informative to awesome!
