    Hm... I wonder if they'll at least include stowed-mode parts...

    Speaking of Spirits Kuji: Will come in black, white, and pink. November release, I think it said a 5700 JPY price tag? EDIT: Ranka

    For real. If I ever see this on Ebay, I'm grabbing it for sure, quality of the movie be damned.

    Eventually, IIRC. Apparently you can easily tell the A-to-D conversions by the fact that the opening for the glove vanes (thanks for giving me the correct terminology) were simply welded shut. At least that's what I remember from hearsay. Could very well be wrong.

    Doesn't AC7 feature them? Could've sworn... Edit: Speaking of the F-14, it did my heart good to see the little "winglets" that slide out after the plane enters its high speed config. I forget if they reused the model for the D variant and thus mistakenly recreated it for that, but seeing it at all was lots of fun. That said, the PS2 games had their share of mistakes, too, such as the placement of the F-35C's machine gun.

    True, but for $60-80 I'd have expected the Spirits Kuji figures to be slightly higher quality... though I suppose they are, just not in that particular department. And it's not as if the arguably ugly face isn't actually accurate to some of the artwork. I seem to recall a close-up of her head for an in-universe promotional image looked a lot like those "ugly" sculpts. It doesn't actually look bad, just very different from how she usually looks.

    "Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor." (This is another reason why I don't particularly like Ragnarok compared to the first two Thor movies...) More importantly, Thor or Captain America could have completely nullified Thanos simply by laying Mjolnir on top of him. But meh, they couldn't for the sake of cool choreography and fighting, etc., yes yes yes... but still.

    I wonder if those will be actual photo-etched metal detail pieces. Either way, that's an insta-buy for sure. I'm glad Alpha x Omega aren't using the same sculptor as Banpresto/Bandai for their recent releases. That face sculpt is looking much better.

    Head's up, I just got a Youtube "recommendation" from the channel FuriousTrailer that is a big ol' spoiler for this movie. I'm guessing there'll be plenty more in the upcoming week.

    Thought you all might enjoy this.

    Maybe so, but I agree I'd have liked a different look for her. Either lean fully into her Alpha/Zero aesthetic - the kind of stereotypically cute, slim and smooth anime schoolgirl look - or lean more into her maturing look from V - more muscle definition, less cute. I think the pose could be better, too. Doesn't scream "Sakura Kasugano" quite so much as if they had her, say, doing her victory dance or something. Of all the SF Bishoujo figures, I think I'd like to get my hands on Juri the most. Everything about it looks spot on to the character while still being aesthetically "bishoujo." That or Ibuki. Or Makoto, if they ever get to her. Or Elena. God, my kingdom for a Makoto or Elena.

    Yeah, I'm really tempted to preorder that Sakura figure. She's always been my favorite shoto to use. I do kind of wish she had her SFV outfit, though.
  15. kajnrig
    Eh. Pretty flaccid trailer, anyway.

    Reviews seem mixed, at least from the wording of the headlines. Some positive, some negative, most middling. https://news.google.com/stories/CAAqfQgKIndDQklTVXpvSmMzUnZjbmt0TXpZd1NrWUtFUWk5XzhINGpZQU1FZUFDNDRseHo4V0RFakZCYkdGa1pHbHVJR2x6SUdOdkxYZHlhWFIwWlc0Z1lXNWtJR1JwY21WamRHVmtJR0o1SUVkMWVTQlNhWFJqYUdsbEtBQVAB

    Considering how they allegedly jumped the shark the second season, I'm quite glad to have only watched the first and stopped there.

    That is looking fantastic. Too often I see this type of dio and the lights at the feet aren't diffused enough nor... "voluminous", I guess... enough to look convincing. But this is both, and the result is, well, looking fantastic.

    You can tell this was before they loved each other because he super casually fired a big ass gun in her general direction without so much as a moment's hesitation.

    Oh wow. Wooow. WOOOOOOOOW. That... Why does it look like it should have premiered on the Disney Channel? That is... just all sorts of yikes. It looks so amateurish and cheap. Like the dance choreography is as boring as possible, and the cinematography is bland, and they travel like half a city block throughout that whole clip, and... Oh, it's directed by Guy Ritchie, you say? Well that explains it, then. Sheesh. What a phenomenal disappointment.

    I mean... yeah, that's kind of exactly how it is for me. I griped about it in the R1 thread, too, but I always pictured stealing the Death Star plans as something of a spy thriller, not a massive three-fronts assault.

    I ask because the HLJ Twitter refers to a "Minimum Factory Nose Collection."
