It looks fine but doesn't really tell you anything. I'm going to guess the plot is a rehash of Empire Strike's Back. -
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, in theaters Dec. 16, 2016
Roy Focker replied to Dobber's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Actually to me it felt like a bad campaign. Good roleplaying experiences involve having fun. You don't have fun with everyone trying to make the most gritty and humorless character. The fun happens when players don't create clones and act off each other. If every player is true to their character's gritty and humorless personality the game becomes boring. The other way the fun happens is when players make a major mistake that technically should end the game early but everyone decides to continue and laugh as they make a disaster even worst. Characters with personalities or a players willing to use humor to entertain each other creates more experiences that you remember. Rogue One was pretty much a Roleplaying adventure played by the dullest group of players. Just because it was a war doesn't mean it needed to lack personality. Hollywood made a ton of gritty war movies involving characters death and still had interesting characters with personalities. -
Was finally able to get Milia 3 days after I was suppose to get her. She sure is red! I think I like the red from the 1/48 more it is richer and feels like it matches the screen better. This new red is bright.

These might be good to get for the simple reason that over time if you keep handling and transforming the real deal is going to get loose joints, prone to break and will show signs of wear. You can play with a KO all you want without fear of damaging it while your real stuff sits harmlessly on display.

I showed them the tracking number. They were able to track down that the driver was there that day. I was able to pick up other mail from my box. Every mail box has the occupant's last name printed inside. I'm going to get it one way or the other next week. If I never used this tracking number I could easily assume it was still on route. They might have shipped it back to Japan where it would be put up for sale again and I would have lost it to Sh9000.

Well the Post Office is trying to screw me. I went to check it's status online. It say's "We attempted to delivery today but no one was home. We left a notice. You can reschedule delivery online or take that notice to your Post Office on Monday." Guess what? I was home during this delivery attempt. No one knocked on my door. There was no notice left in the mail box either. I'm thinking the mailman was too lazy to climb some stairs. I don't want to reschedule delivery and have him do the same thing? They didn't leave a slip for me to pick up my package either. This has happen before. They'll leave a notice because they don't want to make the extra trip to someone's door. I've found notices in my mail box when I was home and then saw their mail truck across the street. This time they not only didn't knock on my door they forgot to leave a notice. I ended up driving to the Post Office to find what was going on. My fear is that my package is going to get sent back to Japan. Which would have happen if I didn't have a tracking number. Talked to a supervisor on duty: The Post Man said he tried and left a slip. I'm like, well that's a lie because they never did and that's why I'm here. Now how do I get my package? The supervisor insisted that I can reschedule delivery or bring the slip back on Monday. To which I had to remind them "With what slip? There's was no slip." So I'm going back on Tuesday because I'm at work during their open hours on Monday. Hopefully I can pick mine up without that slip.

I acquired my collection when they first announced them for sale. Didn't have to preorder much back then. A year after a new release I could swing around and pick one up on clearance. I wouldn't attempt to collect my exact collection now as I don't want to pay double or triple on the 2nd hand market. If my house ever burns down my new Valkyrie collection I'd buy with the insurance money would look very different.

Your item arrived at the Post Office at 5:08 am on April 8, 2017 The question now is will they put it on a mail truck for delivery today or will they hold it till Monday?
-
The post office has decided to stop updating Milia's progress or the mail truck driver has been driving for over 36 hours straight without stopping.
-
Milia cleared customs. Maybe it gets here by Saturday.

My Milia is moving fast. It was just SAL but already out of the country. Here's hoping that our postal service is just as efficient this month.

Spider-Man: Homecoming, in theaters July 7, 2017
Roy Focker replied to areaseven's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Feels like that trailer gives the entire movie away. Still looks good. -
Popular mecha or not I'm glad they're making them.
-
Good morning. I didn't stay up as I been under the weather and got work today. I was able to get the Defender from Ami Ami once I woke up. Checked my email and found Milia been shipped.
-
12am my time? Don't they know I've got work tomorrow and feeling under the weather? I might miss this one or doing the 5am hunt.

That's a beautiful toy.

New Macross TV Series in 20xx (sometime this decade)
Roy Focker replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
They don't have to top singing ability. They just need to top the cute or sexy factor. Sheryl & Ranka were just 2 girls. Walkure were 5. See over twice as much right there. -
Wonder Woman, in theaters Summer 2017
Roy Focker replied to jvmacross's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Could be good. -
What's the future of this site?
Roy Focker replied to Darkwater's topic in MW Site News & Member Feedback
Yes most people do skip the front page and go right to the forums. For the longest time the front page had no news. People now can just go to the news thread for the latest updates. I actually do miss the Facebook feed. It was nice to see some news on the front page besides Cosplays & Podcasts. As some have already guessed us mods are kind of too busy now to feed the front page with daily updates. I've thought about using my front page access to make a monthly summary for it. Then I think maybe a monthly allows too much time go by and even I don't always have the time to write one myself. Also thought about allowing members to suggest stories for us to share on the front page. If people would like to direct our attention to things for the front page and willing to include a brief write up to go along with them I think I can maybe post them to the front page on bi-weekly schedule. -
Thor: Ragnarok, in theaters Nov. 3, 2017
Roy Focker replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
First glance he doesn't look like Thor. -
Agreed. Please just leave the Megaroad alone. Sure I would love to see what happened to them. I just don't want to see those characters in something that's in the same tone as Delta.
-
I found it kind of silly. Society crumbled just a couple years ago and these survivor groups are getting more ridiculous.
-
Might actually be worth that price. Problem is while you can technically make anything selling something is another challenge. Your potential customers will have limits what they are willingly to spend on a collectible. You need to know what they're willingly to spend and than make something that doesn't go above it. They've gone above it.
-
He was smiling. Most likely because those people could be potential allies. I find some of these communities to be down right silly. Society has only collapse a few years ago and we've got all these unique groups and their wacky customs.

Milia is next month. I forgot who I've got my preorder with. I know I've got one.
