  1. Space Balls was a great parody film and definitely one of the best of its kind
  2. I wish I could tell you exactly when it was released, all I can really do is tell you more of a close idea of when I bought it. I’m pretty sure it was before 95, but not absolute on that
  3. I’m not too sure on that since I kinda wonder if they’re trying to spread out releases. The 1J fighter release may only be a change in head piece and decal sheet. I don’t know if they went as far as changing any other details from their other fighter kit. And the fighter got pushed back a month almost seemingly to make room for the battroid that got a lil delay. So maybe the 1A’s will be pushed back as well. But who knows for sure at this point
  4. This one looks great And so does this one. Not too many people doing peeps with the cell painting technique
  5. That thing really turned out awesome
  6. I bought mine in the early 90’s at Suncoast back when those were in every mall. They did a special order for it. That was kinda their thing. It probably says on the back of the sleeve. I think it was before 95. I know most of the video places had Clash of the Bionoids and it was a somewhat edited version. Oddly the DYRL version had the same dubious dub. I just remember that the people at Suncoast had to catalog things in a big book and write everything on paper because it was pre computer catalogs. It was also back when laserdiscs were on the shelf and before dvd. It was also a little before the internet was a thing. I had heard about it from a friend that there was a rumored vhs copy that was a bit longer and had scenes the likes of which were only legend. I knew the archivists in the dark ironically named Cave called Suncoast might be able to procure the item I sought. It took three months before a hero clad in brown had delivered it to the dark archives. I then had to convince a friend to take me to retrieve that legendary treasure since I did not have a ride. Seriously, every Suncoast store I had ever been in was dark and had dark paint, they probably got turned into Hot Topic stores when they went under. And the clerks all were extreme movie snobs, but always knew the best versions of the movie you were looking for.
  7. The one I got from hobby search was regarding the fighter kit
  8. When people with too much cash buy something like a transporter to steal from the poor it makes it tough to feel sorry for them when they get pasted in a back alley in the middle of the night
  9. Even though there a lot of seam lines to get rid of, they’re at least mostly in smooth areas. So it’s not a super complicated clean up. Just a lot of large parts
  10. It’s odd because I’ve known the colors for so long, but to see it like this on a model makes it look far better than I expected. I’m still not done with the red one yet, but super excited for this one too
  11. Yeah, but the pattern buffer tank costs way too much and they’d go out of budget, so the scrambler works better for small business. They just go out back with a hose and all’s good
  12. WHAT DO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO PULL THE STICK TO GO UP?!!!!!!!!!……….Should have gotten an automatic instead of a stick shift……I wasted all my money on this thing, I’ll probably look all homeless by the next tournament…..
  13. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but I heard that the plan is to slowly bring the funimation back catalog over to crunchyroll while doing updates that weren’t working out so great for the older shows and doing some kinda reworking of the files for those older shows.
  14. A friend of mine sent me that the other day and I was thinking the same thing
  15. With a transporter, you just get your stuff and leave the cash on the counter. just made me think that the transporter tech is probably gonna lead to a lot of theft. And the anti burglary systems would be absolutely horrific by scrambling the particles in an anti transporter field leaving you as a mess of meat and goo out in the back alley
  16. I saw these up at hobby search the other night. It’s nice to see how it looks with the decals and the new pictures of the main man himself, even if he’s technically in drag
  17. Robin-11 had mentioned it was on there in Italy on the Mospeada thread. Glad to see it’s a worldwide thing for the most part.
  18. I did the same, I told myself that I didn’t need it before they showed a prototype, but after the prototype and seeing it in color with the extra peeps, I couldn’t resist
  19. I used to back in the 90’s in the days of the pointy faced space marines. I remember they sold a pack of thirty plastic marines for only thirty bucks. I was on an extreme budget of lawnmower cash at the time, so that seemed like a great bargain. Did find out my daughter is playing now. She started about a year ago since she’s been living with her fiancé and I guess their friends are into it as well.
  20. I have a feeling that there will be a Plamax version soon and maybe a little down the line Hasegawa will do their battroid version
  21. Nice and filthy
  22. This is definitely the best way to look at things. I have the Bandai hg YF-19 and love it even if it’s not perfect and now Hasegawa has a much more boxy looking one that will appeal to those that already have their fighter kits and Max Factory may have one as well since they showed off the VF-19 that looks more poseable than the hasegawa kit and gives a different option over the Bandai hg version in size. Different options for different tastes and space are a good thing and I hope all the companies keep on going with more Macross
  23. There’s a few bad examples of recent animation from America, but I’d take Castlevania, Invincible, X Men 97 and even Vox Machina over any anime that’s come out in the last decade or so. Anime has really been in a bit of a rut lately. It’s been either really pretty, but cringy and dull or a bunch of Tron fanfiction, or just derpy humor that’s just not funny or forgettable remakes of older shows with bad cg
