  1. Apologies, I don't understand what this means. Does this mean that it will look better or worse? I don't hate how it looks in these renders but do think the nose is a bit wonky. Chris
  2. Even IF that was what he did....Cercie voided the agreement immediately anyway by refusing to send her troops. It's a mute point. I'm really not sure what his look was about, which is what concerns me. Maybe really is in Love with her, but that would be redundant as we already have that dynamic with Sir Jorah. I think his look is going to drive us nuts for the next 1-1/2 to 2 yrs. Chris
  3. Just realized, Jon and Tyrion have something in common, both of their mothers died giving birth to them. Sad.... I hope they continue their friendship, Tyrion had a strange look at the end of the epsiode. Chris
  4. The first one you have is the 2199 Yamato but scaled to the originals size and has the originals fighters too...Bandai didn't know, at the time, that the ship was upscaled, thus the size discrepancy. I'd be surprised if Bandai will make another 1/500 kit of the 2202. While they did seem to sell well, I always got the impression that the Japanese market wasn't into large kits. Personally I would like one ..... and also accurate Earth Fleet ships in 1/500, they wouldn't be to big and would look nice with the 1/500 kit. Chris
  5. So what your saying is that it has the real world equivalent of head lasers!? Awesome! Chris
  6. I was going to say the Russians sure know how to make cool camo schemes.....along with pretty planes Chris
  7. So no waist swivel then as it would break the operators back. Chris
  8. Excellent comparison shots of the 2199 and 2202 refit Yamato's for the upcoming 1/1000 2202 Yamato kit. Too many pictures to bother posting them all so here is the link. I'd really like to know what that structure is just behind the Aft secondary turret. http://hobby.dengeki.com/news/435670/ Chris
  9. Yeah, Walkers never really made much sense but they're an in universe thing that most people loved. I have no problem with continuing their use.....however silly it may be. Chris
  10. I for one am liking the many of the new designs, but totally respect others opinions too. I'm glad most of us can maturely discuss and even disagree here without it devolving into madness.....like what Chronocidal was saying. For me, while I can admit that some newer designs would've been nice, I really do adore the new T-70 X-Wing and FO Star Destroyer. The new Walker is also cool looking to me, and the Dreadnaught is ok. Hopefully, when I see more of it it'll grow on me more. The TIE's, I appreciate their more subtle updates (and there are actually quite a lot more than what most think i.e. color change, antenna, and cogs for the SF TIE), like what is done with many modern military aircraft...but maybe something a little more different would've been more welcome by most of us. The command Shuttle and resistance troop ship, though, I really don!t like. Here are a few more images of the Dreadnought. Chris
  11. I agree, I wasn't mad about the change and expect differences...just noticed the IOI logo on his haptic gear and thought "there's something different" regarding potential story elements. Chris
  12. Found what may be a change from the book, if you at home the trailer closely, Wade is using IOI gear...something he would NEVER do in the books. My guess is they will just make IOI the company that owns the OASIS and eliminate GSS altogether. Chris
  13. As for the flatness of the Dreadnought, that was requested by Rian Johnson who need it that way for the story, apparently. from Kevin Jenkins, Lucas films design supervisor: "Basically, it evolved from story reasons because Rian needed a new battleship in the script called the Dreadnought. Essentially, it needed to be a ground-firing gun platform, and the other limitations that Rian put on me was he needed and required a flat surface with gun turrets on it. So basically, it’s an armored gunboat, an armored gun platform. It’s sort of a heavy artillery that’s much bigger than a standard Star Destroyer, about two-and-a-half times the size of a standard Star Destroyer." Chris
  14. Yeah, it's the second largest ...about 5 times the size of the Imperial Class which was about half the size of the new FO Reurgant class. Size wise: Imperial Clas SD: 5249ft Super Star Destroyer: 62366ft (Still the king....by far) Resurgent Class (FO) Star Destroyer: 9566ft so like you said out of the question when it comes to SW vehicles. Chris
  15. Loved this episode, been loving the season altogether. Looking forward to seeing what Martin does in the books, too. Chris
  16. That's a matter of opinion....I think it is butt ugly.... and not in a cool way the way some describe the A-10. Chris
  17. With how far apart the engines are and how wide it looks, how about the Spread Eagle. Chris
  18. I'll post pics once it arrives. Very excited Chris
