  1. Ohhhhh, that clip IS awesome.
  2. Same, if there were any available, they evaporated in the blink of an eye.
  3. Shipping notice on my CCS Toys Mazinkaiser... super excited and crossing my fingers shipping goes well!
  4. I present... the Beefintseeker... when you absolutely need it found and dead. I really need the big long-range missile attachments for the arms though. Wonder if FEXT will sell me just those or if I have to get another whole set of armor just for the missiles...
  5. The HMR Orguss is super cool! Slapped it in with Aquarion... seemed like a happy place for it.
  6. Off their official site. They still have the 2-seater versions as of a couple weeks ago.
  7. Glad I pre-ordered this.
  8. They'll destroy 4k even with ray tracing, but be ready to drop $2000-$2500. Early reports suggesting 40% increase in performance from prior cycle. AMD has already declared they're staying out of the high end this card cycle so no help there.
  9. Yeah, the extension cable was complete trash. It was advertised and marked as being compatible, but GPU-Z exposed it for the trash it was.
  10. So I built an external GPU to work with my ROG Ally X and I think it came out pretty awesome.... Box moves between my office (3440x1440), home theater (1920x1080), and living room (4k). Performance has been stellar with the office sitting at 70-90 FPS ultra, home theater at 140+ FPS ultra, and living room between 30-60 FPS ultra. Temps are always great even at load. Drivers were a pain at first, but that was due to a bad PCIE extension cable and a PCIE cable to the GPU that wasn't fully seated. Had to tweak the case a hair, but the PCIE board sits nice and flat in the base of the enclosure. For specific games: Plague Tale Requiem: Running 4K Ultra across the board getting 45-60 FPS. Space Marines 2: Running 4K Ultra across the board getting 35-45 FPS. Dying Light Stay Human: Running 4K Ultra across the board getting 35-60FPS. Starfield: Running 4K Ultra in the busiest cities and getting 30-60FPS. Going to the office and projector - runs even better... On the projector I can get stupid and turn on Raytracing and the FPS are still great. Enclosure: Mechanicmaster IF-11 (90 Bucks Open Box) Dock/Board 1: Aliexpress v1.6 UT3G @ $130 Dock/Board 2: Dock for peripherals and power GPU: Reference AMD RX7900 XT (Got it for $569 refurbished) PSU: Corsair SF850L (Refurb for 90 bucks) Air Cooling: Silverstone Shark Force 160 Intake Attached Magnetically to the Case 2 x Arctice P12s Exhausting Out the Top Fan Controller: Fan Controller I Snagged for 10 Bucks L-Shaped Thunderbolt 4 Cable: TBolt 4 Cable Built Like a Tank Odds and Ends: 3D Printed I/O Cover Tiny, Adhesive Rare Earth Magnets for the Fan Replacing all the PSU cables with sleeved ones soon... The ones that came with the PSU are, well, awful. Some decals to pimp the exterior of the case.
  11. In for an updated 27. Maybe this will lead us to updated monsters, too.
  12. At first I thought, let's see what happens. Taking a better look at it today... What a turd, this is.
  13. Binged Requiem last night. Plenty of B-Movie cheese in the dialogue and some character designs. Lots of jank. However, the mood every time the Gundam showed up is undeniable. I liked the Jason reference, but instead to me this Gundam wasn't horror. It has an efficiency/no lack of wasted movement in its fighting that oozed true combat machine instead of most of the other drama mama Gundams. This thing meant business and it delivered like a mission-focused soldier would. Very different feel to me and I liked that. It was fun to watch as long you go in prepared to forgive the cheese.
  14. You figured it out, yeah. I typoed and should've said 50th anniversary. Daitarn III is up on my list and I really enjoy the GX-31SP. I thought the shiny metal would look cheap, but it was done nice and it threw me back to the chrome from back in the day. Doesn't seem to be flaking/chipping/scratching like that old chrome, too.
  15. Odds of a 40th anniversary Daitarn like the Voltes V or has that been announced already and I missed it?
