  1. No, it is much closer to the SR-71 Blackbird. With a bit of the B2 stealth bomber thrown in. I actually get the toys he’s talking about. Back in the day I remember a lot of things trying to do a stealth fighter toy and they looked a lot like a wider shorter sr-71 and looked really close to the plane in this movie.
  2. What presence? So far his character may be the worst part of the show. Whoever might hijack his show will probably get a welcome hello there.
  3. Finished the third episode and now I have to wait. At least these come out at the end of the week to wash away the disappointment that is that obi wan kenobi mess.
  4. I don’t watch the cartoons, but the one Jedi they did find on Tatooine, they took care of without even contacting Vader. I think they only report to him over important issues like when they murder their own boss and need a replacement again
  5. I asked the same thing a page or two ago. It is kinda crazy how much other places are charging in the states. But I would think if a place was worried about the “unproven line” being a thing, then the price ranges would be more drastic. They all seem very similar with very few being a lot less. The majority are close to $170 and if they aren’t then often they have a slightly higher shipping rate that almost offsets that difference. There are very few bigger sites that have lower prices. But the big sites are about the same. I lucked out with discounts on this release, but I might not be so lucky the next time around. Either way, I’m pretty sure the high pricing is more due to Bandai than the American sites, but why Bandai is setting these so much higher that the Robot Spirits figures that are almost the same size boxes doesn’t really make sense if they’re basing things on shipping since I’m sure they get a bulk discount.
  6. He didn’t do stuff for an entire episode and when he does, it’s no that he wanted to. He also did things in the least heroic of ways. Boba Fett oddly did more heroic deeds in his first few minutes of his show. I pointed out on an earlier page that he tries to save a fellow hostage, spares a few lives and even gives out employment. The other thing that the not so great show had that this one lacks, is like able characters to offset the annoying ones. So far in the obi show the kid is annoying the bad guys are annoying and obi is not even a hero or competent , everyone else is full of a sass other than maybe the farmer that he used to block a blaster shot.Both shows are in the not great category and obi so far is just bad, I’m hoping it gets better since they only gave it few short episodes and we’re already on to the last half and mando can’t rescue this one.
  7. I guess if original just means you took a shotgun shell of goofy ideas and blasted them at the tv screen . This show jumped every shark in the ocean and nuked the fridge on the way out.
  8. Watched the first two and so far so good. The first few minutes were especially hardcore. Yikes! one more to go before I have to wait another week
  9. Another odd question I have about this show is that it seems as though he wasn’t using the force out of fear of being detected. Yet he seemed pretty eager to start training Luke. Wouldn’t that have made Luke an easy target?
  10. Honestly, I’m surprised it made it as far as it did. It’s like they didn’t have any clue how to make a show and just threw out ideas and instead of weeding through them for the best, they just used them all at the same time. Either that or they knew it was getting canceled and scrambled to get everyone’s ideas on screen no matter how absurd before the axe came down.
  11. That alien has a real guilty look on its face no space tuna tonight
  12. I mostly agree. I personally hate stickers, but seriously it wouldn’t cost much more to include a water slide decal sheet. If they already designed the pattern then the hard work is done. At least give the option. And the same goes for Bandai, but at least 60% of the time they do an aftermarket set that you then have to buy separately.
  13. There was so much going wrong that I didn’t even think about that stupid laser fence. If he’s not gonna drive through it he could have walked a few feet around it. I guess I was still caught off guard that the heroic obi would block a blaster shot with a farmer
  14. That’s highly disappointing. Someone should be fired for that decision
  15. I think there were two. The little nichimo and the bigger one Arii I think. either way I would love a hasegawa version of it
  16. It’s an interesting show with some of the worst decisions ever made. I still don’t get the thing about the baby bear or the grand daughter wanting to kill Roy. Maybe a second season will answer some of these questions. and it was really creepy that that neighbor would give rides to the little girl and then made out with her as an adult in the most awkward make out session ever
  17. Just got mine as well. It’s a really heavy box for a plastic model

    Intake covers would be very difficult due to the limited space due to the hip joint location. They’d almost have to redesign that area to have tiny intakes to somehow fit the covers and they’d probably ugly or weird looking
  19. Yeah, so far the best of these shows has been the Mandalorian. It probably benefits greatly by not using an established character. All these prequel and sequel things are a mess. The best of the franchise mainly does it’s own thing off to the side.
