    Here's a much better effort. And it only cost $3,000 to produce.

    Slightly OT, but has anyone here picked up this kit? Looks perfect for any Gunpla background. Just don't "drop" it. Wave Space Settlement (3,600 yen)

    Does anyone here have the Revell kits in this video?

    A children's movie created by a former Playgirl model. Genius.

    On a side note, has anyone here seen Cool Cat Saves the Kids? The creator seems to be more butthurt than Uwe Boll that he's getting YouTube to block every review of the film.

Episode 1: "The Bustling Animal Land" (どきどき動物ランド) Young zoologist Yamato Kazakiri stumbles upon a giant cube that transports him into Zyuland, inhabited by humanoid animals called Zyumans and decorated with cube structures. There, he meets four warriors who defend the Link Cube, the only connection between their world and Earth. They suddenly accuse him of theft when they discover in his possession a cube key that was handed to him by a mysterious Zyuman many years ago. Meanwhile, the DeathGaliens begin their invasion of Earth. Yamato and the Zyuman warriors return to the human world in the middle of the chaos, but the Link Cube is destroyed, leaving the four Zyumans stranded. Their own cubes change and their powers awaken, turning them into the Zyuohgers. But just when the Zyuohgers are overpowered, Yamato discovers that he himself is a Zyuohger. Lowdown This year marks the 40th anniversary of Super Sentai, and this usually means we would have a team that encompasses everything that has made Super Sentai a permanent stable in Japanese sci-fi. Take 2011's Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, which had an awesome cast, a great storyline, and badass costume designs. Consequently, Gokaiger became the last great Super Sentai series, as everything else after it was dull and completely forgettable. As the current anniversary flag bearer, does Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger have what it takes to bring Super Sentai back to its former glory? Not really. While it's true that no series should be completely judged by its pilot episode, Zyuohger carries more of the same from the last two series: characters we probably won't care much about, uninspiring designs, and the lack of anything new and exciting. Like Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger, Zyuohger uses a wild animal motif, but adds cubes in the mix. What cubes have to do with animals is anyone's guess, but it's apparently an attempt to draw in the Minecraft™ crowd. So what you get are people in spandex™ animal costumes carrying Rubik's Cube™ cell phones. As for the costumes, they look decent, but too plain compared to other Super Sentai costumes. At least they look better than Ressha Sentai ToQger. The baddies are practically walking arcade game machines. Once they are defeated in human size, they are given a "Continue" token that super-sizes them to continue their rampage. And this brings us to our giant robot to combat them. While DX Super Sentai toys are, for a lack of a better term, "bricks, Zyuoh King is literally a pile of bricks, as all you need is a combination of three Zyuoh Cubes stacked up to form the robot. while not abysmal as ToQger's ToQ-Oh, Zyuoh King is proof that Toei is creatively bankrupt when it comes to Super Sentai mecha designs. For an anniversary title, Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger comes off as a bit of a letdown. Guess it's time to dust off the Gokaiger episodes.

    My first spray job in over a decade: An HGUC 1/144 MS-14F Gelgoog Marine repainted in EFSF aggressor colors, as seen in episode 13 of Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory. This was a rather ghetto job, as I used a can of Ace Hardware Ivory spray paint; it ended up being brighter than the Mr. Color #45 Sail Color of the EFSF Zaku II F2. For the torso, I used Mr. Color #14 Navy Blue and #32 Dark Gray (2). This is just a test fit, as it's going back to the spray booth for final coating. I'm kinda surprised that P-Bandai never released this color variant.

    Since Bruce Willis was practically a walking corpse throughout that film, yeah.

    Because FOX thought the best way to celebrate the anniversary was to bury John McClane on the big screen.

    The James Bond 007 franchise set another Guinness World Record; this time for "Largest Film Stunt Explosion". While the explosion was very impressive, it made SPECTRE look really weak in the story, as all Bond needed to do was fire a couple of shots at the gas mains. Also...
