The title on the box looks weird, like they messed up while printing it. Saw it in person today in Akihabara. Looks good thought.

So is this the Yamato toy? I'm getting confused here. Either way, this one is the second gen hardsuit design as well. It's missing the left arm attachment and the rivet things on the legs, but still the same suit.

Judging by the Priss alone, its the second gen hardsuits from the original OAV. Lots of good pics can be found at ravensgarage.com

Those are the classic BGC hardsuits. Not the 2040 redesigns. I haven't watched BGC in forever, but those look like the suits introduced near the end of the series. Could be wrong though, I'll pick them up if they turn out to be decent. Wouldn't touch 2040 with a 10-foot pole.

Finding Pepsi in a non-vending machine situation is a pain in the butt. Japanese Pepsi also has MSG in it, go fig. Bought a can of Coke the other day and they're doing a promotion as well... for Olypmic pins. Not quite as cool.

There should be a funny joke about LUKE FREAKING SKYWALKER getting fast packs before the YF-19 does, but it's 6am and I can't think straight enough to put it together. So... be my guest.

Hey! I Haven't drank since... that one night. Pretty sure I told you about it. Gundam's 25th anniversary should be this year, since it was originally released in 1979.

Yeah, them Japanese kill each other with knives ALL THE TIME. Just like how us c-r-a-z-y Americans run around all day shooting our six-shooters and yelling "Yee-haw!" I think the SM/Ever Anime/etc situation pertains to the fact that Taiwan is a bit of a 'grey area' when it comes to being an actual independant country, and as such copyrighted material is sketch and enforcement lax. This whole thing sounds like a major pain in the butt Rob, do you do a lot of business with people from HK?

Haven't seen any cans with those on them yet, but maybe I'm looking in the wrong places. Mental note: Drink pepsi.

It might be a decent movie, if only because it falls under the 'Spielberg Good Movie Rule' which is, if a Spielberg movie has either a) Nazis or b) monsters it'll be decent. A.I. had no monsters, no Nazis, and look how it turned out.

From what Ive heard, anything above NES-level stuff wont run at full speed, although maybe they've improved the emulators since I last looked into it. Check out insertcredit.com, they do a lot of GP32 news and if you ask (or better yet, search) their forums you should be able to find out a lot of info.

I think that' be a "Menage a Tron"

Saw that on the front page of the newspaper today and thought immately about Agent One. How sad...

Shawn's made references to having quite a bit of video material. Remember all those old commercials he uploaded a while ago? How about that Korean knock-off cartoon with the VF-1? Should be an interesting DVD if it comes together. Hopefully it will!

Thank god for the internet or else idiots like this would have to talk to themselves. But seriously, using the f-word and talking about boob-jobs and masturbation makes this guy mega-cool.

I agree. Not only is it a bit ridiculous because he's done it a number of years already (and just NOW they're bothered by it?), but also because there's plenty of underage girls wearing all sorts of skimpy outfits and no one seems to care about. No to mention the amoutn of overwight individuals who show jsut as much skin as Man-Faye. It's just... ridiculous.

I tried going to my local CC and the discounts weren't coming up on price checks. Where'd you find out about this sale?

And how, exactly, did Robotech rip off Gundam?

Um... Look closer, man. That said, her face looks kinda plastic-y in that picture. Reminds me of a Real Doll. Not that I know anything about those sorta things.

I've actually kicked around the idea of hosting some video on my site, I've got the space now. Just a matter of getting the video itself, or buying a capture card for my G4.

That looks pretty correct JBO, based on what little I know about the whole PC-Engine ordeal. I wonder who in the heck thought all those different versions was a good idea? What you didn't mention were the multiple version of the Turbo Duo and all those other systems; basically the same hardware just looked different. I can't imagine how all of that couldn't have been confusing to all but the most hardcore of fans.

Whered you download it from?

I wasn't saying it sucked or anything, just as a half-assed completist too lazy to play through a half dozen crappy games it would have been nice to get more of the cutscene footage. You half-pint junior mint fanboys, i swear...

http://www.pcenginefx.com/ used to be a great source for the PC-Engine/Tubro Grafix 16/PC-FX but it looks like the main information site is down.. for whatever reason. I have one of the PCE CD Macross games, but no system to play it on. Hopefully gonna remedy that this summer...

I was actually kinda disapointed at the lack of video game footage on the anniversary disk. Maybe it was crazy of me to expect all the cutscenes from the listed games, but I'd like to see more than just the intro sequences...
