  1. And now for something less annoying, but still annoying, nevertheless.
  2. The entire series never got a DVD release, but I did see one that had a couple or so episodes (Escape from the Garden of Evil) at Rite-Aid for under $5. EDIT: Shout! Factory released the first 33 episodes in 2008, but plans to release the last 32 episodes were canceled. However, all 65 episodes are available on iTunes.
  3. The new Voyager Class Optimus Prime figure isn't out yet, but a redeco is already up for auction. That axe doesn't make the figure any better, though. Battle Axe Optimus Prime
  4. Now you've done it! Wanzerfan's gonna come out of his self-exile and kiss you for that!
  5. A tradition in the Super Sentai series is the hand-off segment, where the previous series passes the torch to the next series. This began with the transition from Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger to Mahou Sentai Magiranger in 2005.
  6. No, but don't be surprised if some RT fan does something to him that's worse than the pie incident on Tommy Yune.
  7. Battle Blade Bumblebee was the best Deluxe incarnation of the movie character. The DOTM version is a complete screw-up of that figure, as seen in peaugh's latest review.
  8. I saw some old M.A.S.K. toys at one of the hobby shops near my place. The Thunderhawk is going for roughly US$35 loose. Didn't pay attention to the other vehicles (other than a white van that opens up to reveal another vehicle).
  9. One of the most beloved animated series of the '80s will finally get a DVD release. According to the link below, Shout! Factory has acquired the Region 1 DVD rights to all 75 episodes of M.A.S.K. Now if only Hasbro reissued the classic Kenner toys... DVD Plans for M.A.S.K.
  10. Speaking of BMW, I'll let this video do the talking.
  11. Meh, the only BMW worth owning right now is the 135i coupe.
  12. The popular manhwa by Hyung Min-woo gets the live-action treatment this May. Priest is directed by Scott Stewart (Legion) and stars Paul Bettany (Jarvis in Iron Man 1-2, Michael in Legion) as Priest, Cam Gigandet (James in Twilight, Ryan in Never Back Down) as Hicks, Maggie Q (Mai Linh in Live Free or Die Hard, Mai Shiranui in The King of Failures) as Priestess, and Karl Urban (McCoy in Star Trek, Éomer in The Lord of the Rings) as Black Hat. The film is produced by Screen Gems and Tokyopop, and will hit theaters on May 13. Official Site
  13. Goddamn, the Quick 16 is a porker compared to the Alpha Trooper CS-18 and Raider CS-35. Even worse is that N-Strike stocks will not work on it.
  14. Singer Vehicle Design takes a classic pre-1994 Porsche 911 and brings it to current performance spec. Modifications include new carbon fiber parts, larger 17" tires, a roll cage and a choice of three air-cooled Boxer engines (3.6 or 3.9 liter with 300, 380 or 425 bhp). 2011 Singer Porsche 911 Singer Vehicle Design
  15. Good News: A third-party company has released an upgrade kit for Masterpiece MP-02 Ultra Magnus so he can now look complete. Bad News: The kit itself... Dreamtoys MP-02 Cybertron City Commander Upgrade Kit Pictorial Review
  16. I'll watch it only if George Lucas includes this scene...
  17. No dog, but it's still a train wreck. I read a little about Zaido, and apparently, the producers wanted it to be a direct sequel to Uchuu Keiji Shaider. Toei, fortunately, said no, but agreed to have it as a distant spin-off. Even the Filipino audiences who grew up watching Shaider (mostly for Naomi Morinaga) hated it. Still, both of these shows are better than Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills.
  18. Behold - a TV show that makes VR Troopers look like The Sopranos. (Click at your own risk!)
  19. Late last year, Hasbro sparked controversy when they announced the name of an upcoming Power Core Combiners figure. The PCC Stunticons set was named "Spastic". In the UK and Australia, the general public was outraged, as the word "spastic" is a derogatory term for people with disabilities. As a result, Hasbro change the figure's name to "Over-Run". However... Nice going, Hasbro.
  20. Here's a review of the new Dart Tag Sharp Shot. Nothing really spectacular, and it's huge for a single-shot blaster.
  21. What I'd like to know is which rapper is gonna go for that option, as only one unit will hit stateside (that is, unless some other billionaire in the U.S. beat them to it).
  22. It may be overweight (4,343 lbs.), but it's sexy as hell. The Carlsson Super GT25 is powered by a twin turbo 6.0 liter V12 that makes 753 bhp and 848 lb-ft torque, resulting in a 0-60 acceleration of 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 219 mph. However, only 25 units will be manufactured, with a base price of €429,000. In addition, only one unit will be delivered per country. The options list is also extravagant, which includes a complete 24-karat gold exterior (€156,000) and a matching Smart Fortwo (€45,000). 2011 Carlsson Super GT C25
