  1. I'm trying to download this game via torrent now.... I can't get any sort of satisfactory rate. With the way things are going now, I won't be playing until my 10 day membership is expired.
  2. Softbi means vinyl right?
  3. the gbp combo has been confirmed as having tthe bad pins
  4. I had my Takatoku and WHAM SDF-1s out for my review of the Macross Quarter and while the old SDF-1 is cool it's not cool enough to warrant a re-release IMHO (and I understand the tooling for it was ruined long ago). Having the WHAM next to the old classic kind of gives you a good indication of just how cool a modern SDF-1 interpretation could be. It's too bad Yamato got so carried away.
  5. Sadly, I will not be able to attend.
  6. I definitely think Macross or Robotech is fine for a 5 year old to watch. Primarily because all of the adult content they're not really going to follow and they don't need to at that age. Robotech is perfect for a kid that age since they won't delve past a superficial level and see all the big story problems that were created when the series were mended together. I'm sure the kids will find there way to media with far worse depictions of violence. Hopefully the 5 year old would like it and want to watch it again when they were like 8 or 10 and there you go, a new addict for the club
  7. My fiance refuses to watch Macross. It was made a couple years before she was born so I can imagine that it looks like a terrible old cartoon to her. MacZero was no problem, even MacPlus she can stomach a bit, but if I throw on the original she's out. I know how she feels too. I've watched original episodes of Voltron, Transformers, and Thundercats and I cringed. So I would support a reboot because I do think it'd bring a lot of new fans. I hope they wait another ten years though so I can get my kids into it (that's the timeframe I'm guessing would be necessary).
  8. Sorry Darrin, I totally disagree with you on most these items. While I would LOVE to have a full high quality Gosu, I think the design really lends itself to something like the Vinyl treatment. There would be no opening missile bay or cockpit but it'd be like a $20 toy which is a lot easier for the toy industry to stomach.
  9. WANT. I still haven't removed my Q-REA or VF-25F from their packages yet but I like the idea of this line.
  10. Like the V2 toy... I wish the head were in the right place
  11. It's a huge hunk of painted vinyl from what we can see with VERY minimal articulation (the battlepod).
  12. Am I late to this party? How do I go about ordering replacement shoulders for my toys? I definitely need two VF-1S shoulders because both are broken on my first edition toy and both the replacements were broken in the bag they were sent in. Are we allowed to order for all of the toys we think might have the thick pin?
  13. I just watched District 9 and was totally let down. That thing had plot holes you could drive a bus through. I spent the whole movie wondering about the alien perdicament. How did the aliens wind up at Earth? If the aliens were all worker class then why is it that the one time we see a smart alien boss one around the worker alien completely disregards his orders? If the aliens are that inept how did they ever get so advanced? Why would an alien fuel make a man into an alien? If the alien fuel was made out of alien chemicals, and we know all the alien chemicals were aboard the alien craft originally, why didn't the aliens just make more fuel before they were brought down to the surface? What was the major malfunction in the first place? If the mother ship could be moved remotely from the ground, why'd the smart alien ever plan on flying to it in the first place? Did he not notice the missile battery? How could anyone have smuggled an entire space craft into a district where all the aliens were being housed especially when there was video of the space craft ditching the mother ship? It was a fun flick and all but where Avatar loses points for being so utterly predictable I'd say D9 loses points for not even trying to fill in a lot of the elements essential to its plot.
  14. Hey Save, what is that VF-0 on a display stand?
  15. See my review now at anymoon.com be there or be SQUARE!
  16. I'm working on a huge review of this guy... hoping to have it up tonight.
  17. OOh, i forgot one in my previous post: Gaiares. Loved that shooter.
  18. HA, I stopped playing 90% of games a long time ago so my choices are OLD school (with a couple exceptions). This is really just a list of games I've played too much more than a list of "best" 1) Civilization IV... the one modern game I still play occasionally 2) Phantasy Star II... Rolf, Nei, and a fist full of ZAN! 3) Streets of Rage III... I could never make out what the bad guys were saying 4) Zelda, the original 5) Super Mario III 6) Sonic the Hedgehog, the original 7) Gran Turismo, the original 9) EA's NHL Hockey (any Genesis version)... "wanna see me make Gretzky's head bleed?" 10) Shining in the Darkness 11) Battlefield 1942
  19. I was really trying to get my Macross Quarter review done today but it's just not going to happen (had to pull my Takatoku SDF-1 out for some comparisons in size). So, instead I posted my drone Legioss review... only like nine months after everyone else did! Okay, not the most exciting, but check it out at anymoon.com
  20. The Gakken there is just a sweet custom, not an upcoming product.
  21. I think one was done a few pages back... and failing that I'll probably have one on my site... but probably not for like another month.
  22. I'm delving OT here but for a Robotech live action film it would make sense to want it to be frank with the violence without using the related rating as an excuse to add sexuality that wasn't overt in the original story. It's a war story with love themes, not a sex story with war themes.
  23. you = screwed Website exclusive.
  24. Due for lock... there's already a 1/60V2 "suggestions" thread.
