^ Why is he wearing lipstick???... 

seems like a common thing with a lot of the Hasbro stuff these days. I haven’t seen a Wolverine that they’ve done that doesn’t look like he’s up to some questionable activities when he disappears from the rest of the team.

which object is that?

Probably the white base, sorry I guess it’s green base now in this version of events

I found the first episode enjoyable and will probably carry on watching.

But I don't see myself ever buying any of the toys or models from this show. I personally find the MS designs extremely unattractive.

That’s where I’m at. Not a fan of the designs, but enjoyed the first episode. Not planning on buying any kits, but will check out more episodes as they come out hoping it will stay fun.

So, who's in the red Gundam?

Probably that other kid from the previews that had the little square robot

Why don't they just do a movie starring both these guys? One could be the hero and the other could be the villain, or it could be a "buddy" film like Lethal Weapon was.

I’d watch them as Skeletor and He Man doing a roadtrip

ANOTHER Jared Leto casting? Come on : / there had to be a ton more better options to play that role for god sakes. I just don't like this guy at all and what he does....he's been the root behind so many great bad guys and characters going to ass. 

I guess it could have been Pedro Pascal. Both of those guys are in everything now

I found this; I hope it helps at least in some fashion, as it's kind of cut off a bit on the end:

Are those the Arii ones?

Just watched the first episode on amazon.  While I’m still not a fan of the designs, I actually enjoyed the first one. It’s fun, and a lot going on visually. The character animation is pretty good, while some of the cg stuff in the backgrounds can be a little too cg, it’s not bad with the mobile suit movements. And when things do get a bit cheap, they pull off visual tricks to make it look as though there’s more going on. I watched it in English and the dub doesn’t seem bad either.

I think the only complaint I have is that the music sucks mostly. The theatrical stuff sounds alright, but the songs are garbage. It’s almost as bad as thunderbolt’s soundtrack, but not quite there yet.

Anyway, it was only the first episode, so there’s plenty of time for the show to turn to trash, but I’m remaining hopeful and I’ll probably rewatch this episode again later cause it was actually enjoyable

Dunno, I saw Love lies bleeding recently and it was pretty out there.

Yeah, but all there stuff is so out there that it starts feeling like it’s not out there

Yeah, he never used them ever in the anime.

Usually preferred launching the chest rockets instead.

It’s one of those things where I could swear I saw him jump on a lil scouts and did a quick stab, but I think I had imagined it all these years.

Ha.  This is what would happen.

I think that was also in Godzilla vs Bambi, which was a film I was so glad to see on the big screen

For what it's worth, I saw Death of a Unicorn last night after I think seeing a trailer posted here. It's unfortunately pretty formulaic, and doesn't do a whole lot with its premise. It's a rare outing from A24, which I can usually count on to at least be unique and interesting. I wonder if I'd have had a better time watching The Woman In The Yard instead. The last few times I saw a Black-headed horror flick they've all done a decent to good job holding my attention. (Get Out, Nope, Us, Talk To Me, and Never Let Go.)

Personally, I think A24 has gone so far in the quirky oddball range that now it’s just kinda turned mostly been there done that.

There is no why 

Please don’t be a lead up to Predator vs Godzilla 

Some Bass, Planes, Cats and Dino’s. I’m in

The Wing-0 VF -0 is really fitting

Megatron's replacement?

No, that’s Baetron. There’s a subtle difference in spelling

I'm not sure I'll like this movie. It feels more like a Bay movie with a Tron skin thrown over it.

All good points, if practical. I'm merely speculating, should the technology somehow take off and become successful, as to what direction that tech could possibly lead. Humanity is a barbarous creature and the one constant throughout our history so far as we know it is that any available weapon we create, we advance it and at some point, use it, in nearly all cases. Likewise the weaponization of seemingly benign technologies. Fortunately, we haven't crossed that line with hydrogen bombs just yet, but we're closer to midnight now than ever before. Obviously, you guys don't feel that Corleo is going to lead anywhere, but I'm not discounting anything. Our reality today includes much of what was considered sci-fi until just a couple decades ago, so dismissing anything, especially a technology that already has a real basis at present, is an underestimation. 

I just think that weaponization fits spot better. This thing is more like an expensive toy concept. Sure you can add guns to it, but you could do that with an atv much easier.

Couple of interesting Tested episodes with Adam Savage.

Star Trek miniatures

(Apparently our  @pengbuzz is in good company when it comes to using tape as an integral material in model building!)

And ED 209

 

I love this channel. Was just watching the one with the different judge Dredd costumes

For outdoor recreational use, it's the same as taking an ATV with you. You have to conserve energy to make it back to the home base so unless that thing is solar powered, which still wouldn't collect enough energy to keep something like that charged, it's not practical except for day-tripping. Going all-terrain with something like this feels like you should be going more than an overnight trip and I don't think it has enough fuel/battery power to go that long.

Unless you go full sci-fi and it waits until the right opportunity to attack and drains its energy from other drones out there like a robot vampire. But that’s really just going full fantasy at that point

Had to stay home from work with my sick kiddo. Sucks having a kid that hacking and sneezing, but I selfishly get to do some painting. Finished this up today. It was so much fun for such a simple build. I suck at hand painting but that didn’t stop me. Hahaha. I love my little SDF-1. Made a tiny bridge out of some 1mm pla. I think it came out great for the scale. 

Looks like a fun little build there, turned out nice.
Hope the kid gets better, there’s some nasty stuff goin around, me and the lady both caught a nasty virus last week and are still getting over things here.

I could see them used as pacification or for making forcible entry into an area that may be wired or is defended by potentially armed suspects, thus reducing the danger to a cop or soldier. Moreover, they could give chase to people who run from law enforcement, a job normally given to police dogs, who face harm at the hands of potentially armed suspects. Unlike a dog, who only has his jaws as a weapon, formidable though they may be, something akin to Corleo could be outfitted with any sort of restraining devices to capture and incapacitate. It could be designed to climb fences or jump fences too high for a dog. In lieu of a dog's nose, suspects could be marked with a traceable chemical marker that the quad-drone could detect and follow. The psychological component alone would prove as a good deterrent.

It’s probably cheaper using dogs, they keep turning up at the pound. The teeth and unpredictability are their psychological deterrent. And if you replace them with a robot, then they just will end up youthanizing more dogs because the pound is already at capacity . 
as far as the other stuff, they’ve already been using spot for that stuff other than the actual arrest.

capturing of people takes far more dexterity than a four legged drone has.

Honestly, all these extra ideas all fit great for sci fi and I’d love to see it in a show or movie, but they far from this mechanical horse concept that corleo is. And we already invented motorcycles over a hundred years ago and you probably wouldn’t have as much back pain as this Robobeast would cause.
