  1. Nice! I recommended that one to them! Chris
  2. On so many levels too. First Anakin, now Vader, imprisoned in his suit seeing a physical reminder of his past and what he cared for and lost, the light saber of his apprentice. To the faded and shattered remains of the Republic Star destroyer and the abandoned and forgotten graves of the Clones that were bread to fight, but became so much more. Then, in the end were used to murder the very values they had fought with and for for years only to be thrown away and discarded. The Haunted past... Chris
  3. Wow man, enjoy!..the ending was a gut punch for me. Not a bad thing....just kind of tragic when you think about it. And yeah, the final arc is just amazing. Chris
  4. NICE!! They howl like the old F-104. Chris
  5. I’d love that too, but they seem to be focusing only on Chinese aircraft. So until China buys or copies a 57 I don’t think we’ll see it. It would be awesome though. Chris
  6. Yeah, I watched that when it came out. I LMAO at the final Carrier Qual prank in the Tomcat. Dude has great stories. Chris
  7. Mary Ann.....hands down....not even close. Mary Ann all the way. Chris

    1/3000 SDF-1

    ^^OMG....I LOVE THIS!
  9. In The Mandalorian I’m fine with still seeing T-65’s as it’s only 5 years after RotJ. Plus even if T-70’s are being introduced at this point the show takes place out in the Rim so new fighters would likely not be out there yet. They even allude to the fact that the New Republic isn’t really paying attention out there so it would make sense that their new tech wouldn’t be out there yet. Everything else...well. I got nothing. Likely them not paying attention or even knowing or caring. They may also be trying to avoid using anything that directly links to the sequels. They may not come out and decannonize the sequels but they MAY try to just avoid/ignore them to leave their status ambiguous. Chris
  10. So cool! Chris
  11. I haven’t seen WW84 yet but have heard not so good things. I was wondering when doubts about Patty would start. I just try and remember lots of acclaimed directors have some crap movies under their belts...even after making great films. I haven’t done the leg work yet but what has PJ directed so far? Does she have some more good films under her belt? If studios are so on about female directors I wonder why they seemed to have forgotten about Kathryn Bigelow? I loved Zero Dark Thirty and Hurt Locker. Chris
  12. Wow! That looks fantastic! Chris
  13. Outsider really applies to anyone who doesn’t follow the code...or the “Way”. Din would be accepted, as many Mandalorians are not FROM Mandalor. A Mandalorian is not necessarily a race but more of a way of life that one commits to. That’s why Bo objected to Boba. Jango would’ve been accepted as he was a foundling, but Boba never swore any fealty to the Mandalorian way. Chris
  14. Not entirely: In HP the ElderWand only answers to (read works at full capacity for) the rightful owner which is established through a form of conflict or combat. Harry just beat up Draco and stole his normal wand and that made Harry the rightful owner of the Elder Wand and why he could beat it when even Voldemort was using it against him. The Dark Saber is...as Gideon says in the ep...about the story of attaining it. Though Bo did originally have it because someone GAVE it to her, so there is a contradiction there. But think of it like Klingons or some other warrior group, the story for obtaining the symbol is nearly as important to the symbol itself. The saber itself won’t give you any special powers or abilities even if you do win it in combat. Just a symbol, that apparently needs a good story to go with it to add legitimacy, but if you just found it laying on the ground somewhere lost, you’d still have a claim to rule. If you just stole it from someone the Mando’s would likely think that as dishonorable. Chris
  15. The Luke deep fake looks better but both need work on mouth movement. As for the Rouge 1 stuff, I never had a problem with the Tarkin but will admit the Deep Fake does look better. The Leia looks better hands down. This deep fake stuff is scary. Chris
  16. Yeah I was looking at more pictures of the toy and the real thing and the J-20 is a huge aircraft. Definitely smaller than 1/72 for the toy. 1/80 sounds good. Chris
  17. Mike beat me to it! I was about to post that. Also lots more pictures of the prepro CS-02 attack helicopter on ShowZ’s site. It’s up for preorder. https://showzstore.com/tfc-toys-cs-02-zhi-10_p2780.html I’m really liking the looks of this line so far. Wish they’d do some other aircraft and not just the Chinese, but I get why. Chris
  18. Oooh, thanks for that. I may get it, I love Slave 1. Anyone know what scale the ship works out to be? It’s obviously not actually in scale with the figures. Chris
  19. Looks like the very bottom lower left fighter that can barely be seen is the J-10. If you look close you can just make out the top of the refueling probe. not sure now as the V. Stab is not right.
  20. Will do. From what could see in videos...it looks like it would be at most 1/72 but....IMO....maybe slightly smaller. Not sure how big the J-20 is though. Chris
  21. Looking closer at the silhouette pic, there appears to be more on the bottom. You can just make out another possible fighter on the bottom left. Any ideas? Chris
  22. That is where I ordered mine from as well. I’ll also vouch for them too. I’ve bought many things from them and my J-20 is on its way so they are shipping. Chris
  23. Definitely in for the top line...assuming he remaining two look good. The bottom 3 not interested in as of now, but if the look good I may be persuaded. Chris
