  1. Dude, this is Bandai we're talking about. What could possibly go wrong? (other than the VF100's and the DX Chogokin VF-25 series, not to mention the 1/100 Hi-Metal Fire Valkyrie with the loose shoulder...)
  2. Actually, the real warning would be like this: WARNING: MAN ON STEROIDS
  3. GeigerCars of Germany has modified this Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 up to 799 bhp and 697 lb-ft torque, resulting in a top speed of 220 mph. 2010 GeigerCars Ford Mustang Shelby GT
  4. Batista has a series of TV commercials in the Philippines: "Sarap, pare!"
  5. At the Geneva Auto Show, a Fiat representative sugarcoated the "truth" behind the union of Lancia and Chrysler.
  6. So who in here is ordering the set of 6 King Size figures? I'll just settle with the gray YF-10 for my Armored Messiah to step on.
  7. It was at Greenbelt I in Makati.
  8. When I recently visited Manila, I went into a car accessories shop called Blade and they were playing an acoustic version of "Totsugeki Love Heart." And when I went to Hong Kong last year, an electronics store was playing "What 'bout My Star? (@ Folmo)".
  9. This morning, CNN reported about a new music video by the alternative band OK Go. It uses a giant Rube Goldberg machine and just one camera. Because of the precision required to operate the machine, a group of college engineers were brought in to construct it. Also, it required 60 takes to get it right. Broken TV sets and a piano are seen in the background of the final take as proof of the amount of trial and error. I don't listen to this kind of music at all, but I have to give props to the band for their effort on making this video.
  10. This is the Koenigsegg Agera, introduced to commemorate the company's 15th anniversary. It weighs 2,832 lbs and is powered by a 4.7 liter twin-turbo V8 that generates 910 bhp and 810 lb-ft torque. As a result, it hits 0-60 in 3.1 seconds and is estimated to reach over 245 mph. 2010 Koenigsegg Agera
  11. Over the weekend, my brother picked up Heavy Rain for the PS3. So far, it's received a lot of high ratings from various gaming magazines. Looking at it, I keep thinking it's like Shenmue, only better. Why? 1. Unlike in Shenmue, you don't go out looking for sailors. 2. And unlike in Shenmue, there's a female shower scene. Anyone here played this game yet? Heavy Rain Trailer
  12. It was moved because it focuses on Robotech toys, and the Toys section is strictly for Macross stuff only.
  13.

  14. Looking at some of the pics above, they have a holographic sticker that says EIMC Empire. After doing a Yahoo! search, I found Empire International Merchandising Corporation, a company that licenses major brands and franchises for merchandising in Asia. Here's their RT page.
  15. Got this as a gift last week. Not bad for a Banpresto figure.
  16. More bad news for Toyota owners: cars equipped with V6 engines have a faulty oil hose that tends to degrade and cause severe leakage. Owners of the following models should head to their dealers for a free fix. V6 Models Only 2007-2010 Toyota Camry 2005-2009 Toyota Avalon 2006-2009 Toyota RAV4 2007-2008 Lexus ES 350 2007-2009 Lexus RX 350 Toyota to Repair V6 Models for Oil Leak Issue
  17. Regarding Macross and Robotech in the Philippines... Only the "Robotech Masters" and "New Generation" sagas of Robotech aired in the Philippines, as Macross had already been locally dubbed in English. As for Jollibee selling RT kids' meal toys, this I got to see, as their kids' meals constantly outsell McDonald's in the country (especially last year, when they sold merchandise for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen).
  18. Looks a lot better than using the actual Jetfire figure. Great job!
  19. I got to watch the episode in full, and I will agree with Keith. You guys must watch it to believe it.
  20. Hell yeah. It sure beats watching Robotech II: The Sentinels.
