  1. Yeah, but it they could easily put extra delays on receiving goods at the port. Some of the truckers where I work have been complaining about longer waits and boats waiting extra long for check ins at the docks.
  2. I noticed that one from a screenshot a long while back, but the rocket pods on some of the Nousjadeul Ger is something I just found out about a couple days ago. I do think there’s gonna be more little things left to be discovered though
  3. Most of the tariffs were dropped, but there have been some odd things going on at the ports. I guess a couple of major smuggling rings were busted recently and inspections may be longer and more intense.
  4. I’ll probably go check it out. I’m kinda addicted to these stupid dinosaur movies.
  5. I still like Pedro, even if he is way overused at this point. And Joseph Quinn was my favorite character from Stranger Things
  6. As others had said, multiverse is their biggest gimmick. It’s also everything else’s biggest weakest most overdone gimmick. Oh well, RDJ as Dr. Doom will probably be somewhat interesting. I just hope the movie is good
  7. I don’t really know what a “pillock” is, but he does come of as a special kinda douche most of the time
  8. I do really like the car. Something kinda missing from the MCU are cool superhero mobiles. Most of the vehicles in the MCU other than Guardians of the Galaxy have been kinda generic looking, and it’s kinda nice to see a comic bookish looking car here
  9. I kinda feel like Thing’s voice should have been a bit gravely. It just seems too smooth here
  10. I don’t remember the company, but when I was younger I had an older Hughes 500 kit that was 1/72 in military green with rocket pods. That thing was tiny compared to this one. But it kinda brought back memories of it
  11. Yeah, been waiting decades for a good one. Kinda surprised that D+ hasn’t tried doing a new animated series for them after acquiring the license.
  12. Not so much charcoal for me, but have used crushed pastels
  13. I totally agree. I still love seeing it and love the backstory about images from other mecha, including the Glaug as inspiration for the gun arms.
  14. 90’s anime wasn’t too bad, but Macross 7 isn’t the easiest show to watch. 50ish episodes plus the ova’s and a whole lot of reused animation. I find it a bit tough myself, but I’ve never watched it with non bootleg subs.
  15. The dumb part is that I kinda remember missiles being fired, but I never thought to wonder where they came from. I do have to admit that most of the time it was a video cassette that I was watching and they probably just didn’t show well on there
  16. Macross II is a little weird for sure, but still fun for what it is. I hadn’t watched in a while since I only had the video tapes. I kinda thought the relationships were kinda strange in that one, especially towards the end. The whole Sylvie, Hibiki thing kinda came out of nowhere and then Ishtar finding them and just oh ok. The action is entertaining, but I kinda would’ve liked more time showing the details of the mecha. To get a good look at everything, it helps to be familiar with the images before watching, cause there are quite a few things that barely get shown more than a few seconds at a time. I really wish the Metal Siren got some more screen time
  17. I’ve seen the preorders for it and I do like this in comparison to a lot of other third party stuff. Most of the third party items kinda have a junky kind of look to them, while this one has a more elegant style to it
  18. I saw something about this a couple years ago, and I’m kinda hoping it just sticks satelites, cause my head keeps thinking about them trying that with people inside and a lot of barf
  19. I was pretty surprised as well. Until you mentioned it the other day, I had no idea of its existence. Even google searching, you gotta be specific about the missile backpack or else just the three color variations pop up and most sites only mention those. I couldn’t even find a line art or anything about it, just a couple screenshots of that scene. I don’t even know if they show up anywhere else in the movie
  20. It looks rather rounded and would probably be tough to do a two part mold. I think splitting it into three would be easier. Two halves on the outside for structure and the kneecap attached at the front like with the kit
  21. I don’t think it would be complicated at all, just they’d have to change the design a little. If they did it like the kit, it still had a seam in the middle of the lower leg, but they did a separation line around the knee cap that wasn’t in the design. It would definitely look better though since the line going straight through the knees look odd, especially on the right leg with the step
  22. Nah, that’s just a limitation of toy manufacturing. To get the piece out of the mold it usually needs to be at least a two piece mold. You can get around that for a design like this easily in model kits, since the builder can fill in the seam. But in a toy it’s a tough design to get around unlike the scopedog lower leg design.
  23. Wave is doing 1/100 destroid kits that could help with the hmr. No Spartan or Monster, but the Phalanx, Tomahawk and defender
  24. The fatty is a different design than the scopedog. The calves are separate and the knee caps as well, while the fatty is one piece in the art. They’d have to do a redesign on the knee and lower part of the legs.
