Yet another WrestleMania commercial aired on SmackDown!; this one featured HHH playing the role of William Wallace in Braveheart. "They may come, but they will never take MY TITLE!!!"

I say just rent anything. That's exactly what I did when I had a NetFlix account. And NetFlix was the source of majority of my anime reviews. Who knows? Maybe your next favorite anime will come from a random NetFlix rental. That's what happened when I first rented Figure 17.

Good thing Takara/Hasbro's paying attention to detail this time. Dead End was completely wrong in terms of accuracy. BTW, Solscud007, I thought you were gonna slap on Commemorative stripes on your Tracks.

If only the Targets in the San Fernando Valley would restock their Alternators as well...

Well, Power Rangers SPD premiered this morning. And it's a major travesty. Here's a breakdown of what's wrong with the show: Characters One of Dekaranger's strongest points is its characters. You have your hothead (Ban), your stuck-up hero (Houji), your lazy guy (Sen), your mysterious psychic (Jasmine) and your bath-loving girl (Umeko). The PR-SPD rangers practically have no character at all. And why does Doggie Kruger look like a lizard?!? Technical Highlights The SP License is severely dumbed-down in PR-SPD to impose judgment on petty criminals and trap them in a card (so now it's PR does Yu-Gi-Oh!. Lame.). The SPD uniforms, while more professional-looking, lack color. The police sirens sound weak compared to the ones in Dekaranger. Unlike in Dekaranger, the aliens on Earth don't disguise themselves as humans. And these Rangers are pretty weak, considering how they fight the Krybots (Anaroids). Action Highlights Dekaranger was never a kung-fu show. Unfortunately, Disney treats the show like so. The Bottom Line PR-SPD may be better than most PR shows, but even the worst sentai show (whichever it is) is still better.

Wow, the proportions on the HG version look way off. Now I'm convinced that the MG is far superior. I'll go get an MG Aile Strike later this year.

Well, it was a matter of precision. While the trunk decal was still fresh, I used an X-ACTO knife to carefully cut around the emblem.

i have to agree with you on that on that is the worst toy i think i have ever seen. As bad as that looks, it doesn't compare to this.

Oh yeah? How about the Toro (Matador) Gundam and Mandor (Mandala) Gundam?

Well, that pretty much answers my question. But are there pics online which show both versions next to each other?

Got any pics for comparison?

Damn, that's corrosive. What kind of paint thinner did you use? I used Testors Brush Cleaner to wipe off any overspray on my Tracks and had no problem. As for the seats, all I did was paint over the red. I have no problems transforming Tracks with the seats painted black.

My recent acquisition of a few Arch Enemy Aile Strike Gundams got me curious about other Strike model kits. In the case of 1/100 scale kits, what are the differences between the regular and MG versions other than the number of parts?

So when will Yamato release their Zeorymer figures?

Last night on RAW: - HHH gloated about once again defeating Randy Orton at the Royal Rumble. He also congratulated Batista for winning the Rumble and said he's ready and waiting to defend his title at WrestleMania 21. However, the TitanTron played an interview with JBL, offering Batista an open contract to face him at WM21. An irate HHH demanded an explanation from Bischoff. - It turned out that SmackDown! GM Theodore R. Long played the video to entice Batista into jumping ship. Meanwhile, HHH talked with Flair and thought Batista beating JBL at WM21 would be a good idea as it would mean Evolution will conquer all of WWE. - Prepare for HBK vs. Kurt Angle at WM21. - Kane defeated Snitsky in a steel cage. Yawn. Also, WWE played its first WM21 commercial, featuring Eugene playing the part of Forrest Gump. Eugene: "Hello. My name is Eugene. Would you like a chocolate? [Offers woman some chocolates; she shakes her head as she reads RAW magazine.] I love chocolates. My mama always said, life is like a box of chocolates - you'll never know what you're gonna get. I'm going to WrestleMania. I can remember the great moments like WrestleMania III, when Hogan picked up Andre the Giant and slammed him. Or how about WrestleMania XX, when Chris Benoit made Triple-H tap out to the crossface? Or how about WrestleMania 14, when Mike Tyson punched Shawn Michaels and knocked him out?" [inadvertently punches woman. Realizing what he did, Eugene runs off.] [William Regal appears and checks if the woman is okay.] Regal: "Run, Eugene, Run!"

Time to shift gears on this thread. If you were to recommend only 10 movies to get on DVD, what would they be?

Nah, they should've gone with a VeilSide kit and painted it pink to look like Devon Aoki's ride in 2 Fast 2 Furious. That would've made a perfect Arcee for the series.

I agree and disagree. This isn't the first time the Decepticon looked better than the Autobot. The first would be Dead End.

Sweet pics, F360°. Despite the rather small Armor Schneiders and the slightly larger shield, the AE Aile Strike Gundam is an awesome toy for its price. Besides the 3-for-$10 MSiA Gundams, K-B Toys also has the MSiA Aile Strike Gundam + Skygrasper for $5.99.

Well, the first major PPV of 2005 just ended, and here's the outcome: WWE Royal Rumble Results Edge pinned Shawn Michaels with a rollup and leverage from the ropes. Casket Match Now this was rather odd. During the match, Snitsky interfered and helped Heidenreich drag Undertaker towards the casket. Then, from inside the casket, Kane appeared and fought Snitsky all the way to the back. Nevertheless, Taker once again destroyed Heidenreich with a tombstone and locked him in the casket. WWE Heavyweight Championship - Triple-Threat John Bradshaw Layfield def. Big Show and Kurt Angle with the Clothesline from Hell on Angle. World Heavyweight Championship Triple-H used the Pedigree on Randy Orton again. Yawn. The Royal Rumble Order of Entry 1. Eddie Guerrero 2. Chris Benoit 3. Daniel Puder 4. Hardcore Holly 5.

Both Cena and Batista eliminated each other at the same time. When Vinnie Mac arrived on the scene to talk to the referees, he ordered a restart on the two. Cena set Batista up for the F-U, but Batista blocked it and reversed it into a spinebuster before throwing Cena out of the ring. 2005 Royal Rumble Winner: BATISTA

Okay, I was half-correct when I said the figure is PVC. Majority of the components are ABS plastic. PVC parts consist of the antenna, beam rifle barrel, Aile Striker wings and vernier tips.

Actually, this should be in the TF thread, as it has Optimus Prime in it.
