  1. Nice stuff!! Did you use GW colours to paint it (I see some pots in the background)?
  2. One of the best Robot Chicken skits I've seen And here is some more jedi action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uk6B5ne3cy4...robot%20chicken
  3. Pretty nice story and interesting characters so far. The "showdown" of the second episode was great. It’s nice to see some good action in the middle of the sea. Just one thing, how could Revy and Rock breathe in the submarine if there was no Oxygen left? Do corpses turn CO2 into O?
  4. "superior ending"??? BAH! I bought "The Warrior" off ebay (got an honest to gawd retail "new in sealed" DVD for $9 shipped!!!! )... and just finished watching it. While I liked the way they rebuilt the story into the movie for the first hour, THATS IT! the last 40-50 mins totally screwed up the whole story. Plus the ending was so sudden and anticlimatic... left me going WTF!?! I'm going to keep it for my collection... but I'm not likely going to watch it nearly as many times as I have already watched the TV series.... I'm rounding out 4 times now. 406237[/snapback] Well, that sure is a let down I'm on episode 17 and still having a blast... hope it continues all the way to the last episode until the letdown ending.
  5. I just love this kind of stories. Nothing like a little bit of internet justice.
  6. Wow, that scratch-build looks great! Shame on you Yamato
  7. Just before the fade to black at 28:00. After Nono leaves and screens Lark off with the buster corp. I tried to take a screeny, but no luck. 405690[/snapback] What exactly are you trying to get across? There's an echo and the swarm around some kind of ruin. Nono running off at the last minute is certainly an odd twist but then she probably knows a fair few things they don't. The preview asks "do you know what she (etc) found in the meteor shower" I don't think she's implying the Gunbuster as that was built but I don't recall Noriko finding anything in a meteor shower. It's been ages since I've watched it, I'm suddenely very glad I downloaded it again to celebrate the SOC. If there isn't a new Gunbuster for the finale then it's going to be a rel let down. 405875[/snapback] ****SPOILER**** Guys, look at the last shot of the episode: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v493/Dos...os/bscap021.jpg That doesn’t look to much like some ruins. Those are the "Solar System Shell Machines" constructing a big ass Nono/Buster Machine thing. See the human features?
  8. I remember seeing the original Jojo OVA for the first time about 8 years ago. It was in an anime convention and subtitled only in Korean or something but it sure got my attention (you couldn’t possibly ignore those over the top character designs ). I've read good things about the manga also. If you can, pick up also the first OVA they made (which chronologically takes place after the new OVA). It's much better than the new OVA, has some great old school animation and has some of the best parts of the story.
  9. I did until the 13th scanlation, and then I started seeing the anime. It was a nice action packed story very reminiscent of Ninja Scroll (freaky ninjas with freaky attacks). I switched to the anime because the story was more detailed on the animated version (something that normally is the other way around) but it’s fallen into my “I’ll continue watching later†pile. (I've felt like continuing the manga lately though).
  10. I laughed my ass of reading this article from I-Mockery about the Frank Miller/Jim Lee Batman. Anybody reading that comic? I didn't know it even existed (I'm pretty out of the comic books industry nowadays). Can't help but wonder what was the editor thinking when he let that crazy book slip.
  11. Great render! For a moment I thought the red Q-Rau was the real Yamato one.
  12. Are those two turrets on Megatron?
  13. This is sooooooo good! Hehe, a kind of reverse P-P-P-Powerbook prank.
  14. And prepare for people looking at you in a funny way when you say how much a 1/48 costs
  15. Hehe, so cute and so crappy as a leader
  16. Dont forget the "Amurooooooh" song at the end. 403332[/snapback] True, true I love UC Mobile Suits, specially those from the One Year War. You can’t beat the Zaku as cannon fodder. Z starts ok but degenerates into too many goofy looking MS. Sometimes Gundam shows cross the thin line between “state of the art prototype†and “super robotâ€. In Destiny they just said “F* it†with the Freedom and other suits (though there was a great scene where a Strike Gundam gets the living crap kicked out of it by the new standard issue grunt MS).
  17. But he'll miss one of the greatest intro songs ever. "Gundaaaamu". I started out with Seed and then went to the original series, started Z and saw all the OVAs (the best UC Gundam). ZZ I haven't seen (got a bit sick after finishing Z and Destiny). G Gundam was great to purge my system with it’s crazy take on the franchise. Soooo: UC: MS Gundam: must see, at least the movies if you don’t have the time. Z: Nice but overrated. ZZ: No idea, people say it’s one of the worst (and you can understand future series perfectly without it). Char’s counter attack: Nice movie that ends the whole Amuro-Char thing (Beltorchika Children is the original way it was supposed to be. F-19: It’s a 50+ series cramped into a little movie. Characters and events flash by at the speed of light. V Gundam: Have only seen a few episodes but looks good. UC OVAS: 8th Team: A must see. Takes place in the middle-end of the One Year War (event covered in MS Gundam) War in the Pocket: Just beautiful. Takes place on the last days of the One Year War. 0083: The most epic I’ve seen. The ending has some plot holes. Takes place between MS G and Z. Alternate Universes Turn A Gundam: Haven’t finished yet but it’s a very fresh take on the franchise. See it. Gundam X: Only seen a few episodes. It’s heavy on the “New types†thing. Gundam Wing: People hate it, in my case, it doesn’t spark my interest. G Gundam: Your Gundam life boat along with Turn A. Gundam SEED: My first Gundam. A lot of UC nuts hate it. I believe it has its own elements and borrows stuff and archetypes from the original series in a (mostly) good way. I enjoyed it more than Z. Gundam SEED Destiny: Starts real nice but later degrades into “OWNED!†Machines and endless recaps. You need to see the original series or at least the movies to appreciate and understand better the OVAs.
  18. Super glue can easily fix that inaccuracie (it won't fix the whole turning into a robot gimmick though… unless you use a lot of it ).
  19. Bwahahahahaha! That's right bitches! G1 Prime OWNZ!! 402607[/snapback] That was one of the funniest things i've ever read Ivan, thanks for the laughs. A def. must read. 402652[/snapback] Best retelling of TF:The Movie and "Return of Optimus Prime" you can find. "Cut to Pussimus…er, Rodimus..." Thanks for the link! If Megatron had the wing parts in a grey color instead of that green, he would look a lot better. I mean there's more green present with him as a robot than in gun mode (which is the one mode that is supposed to have the flashy colors to look less like a real gun).
  20. Very nice! Too bad the Yamato valks don't come with those great articulated hands.
  21. This scratch build THS Ultra Magnus is just incredible! http://www.sgcollect.com/forum/index.php?s...ndpost&p=891793
  22. http://s64.photobucket.com/albums/h184/buddykiller/ 402353[/snapback] Oooh, nice stuff! (how big are this things?). That Starscream looks like it has it's head on the right place and normal feet... the cheap/economic competition of the MP?... I want this two to have a baby, then we would have the ultimate Starscream.
  23. Yamato sure isn't wasting time. That head is looking good (I kinda prefer it to the 1S). The 0D is one step closer to being reality
