    It’s definitely more than threes these days, we’re having constant RIP threads here. Just out of this week, there’s been Ozzy The Hulkster, Theo for ones that made our lists. Outside of that there were others that are somewhat lesser known to us old school folks, some comic book legends and Authors as well and we still got a couple of days to finish the week

    Don’t we already have a thread for these uglies

    Here’s the BBTs price, and not really surprising since the Japanese price is so high. Just makes me really worried for when there’s a figure that I really want in the future

    My favorite off that album is Supernaut. And the cover of that song by 1000 Homo Dj’s is amazing as well.

    Rogue was getting up there as well, but I don’t think it was over $100 on a preorder sale. That $103 price on these are with a discount for the preorder, I’m sure there’s probably somewhere else that has them a little cheaper, but not by a lot

    I’d prefer a figure to go with it, but it is still kind of a neat add on for a little display with the kit

    Unfortunately HLJ has them for $103. Which probably would be much more from an American place like BBTS, wouldn’t be surprised to see $130

    Sounds more complicated than the VF -1. Can’t wait to see it finished

    That looks great, thanks for posting

    Looks like Bandai is adding another one of the little guys to their hg kits
  11. Big s
    Thanks for clearing that up

    I kinda figured that, but was just wondering if maybe there’s was something more to it, like certain fleets had a different uniform or something. I guess not

    When there are a lot of runners, I usually make a few alphabetically ordered stacks if the runners aren’t made just for specific sections to make it easier to get to. there are a few kits that have parts separated for certain steps though, like their VF-1 battroid that mostly had them set up that way. It made it easy to organize that one. there’s also the option of reading the manual for the section you’re working on and just grabbing the necessary runners for that particular section.

    I’ve been rewatching Frontier on Hulu and noticed something I either forgot or didn’t pay attention to when I watched it as a bootleg years ago. It was the episode where they go down to that planet and Temjin hijacks a Queadluun Rhea. The thing I didn’t notice was that the Zentraedi weren’t just in movie style designs, but a mix. Most including seemed like they were wearing movie style body armor and those seemed to be with Temjin’s revolt. The others mostly had Tv style light body armor and maybe a guy or two wearing long coats like in the og show. I guess I had always assumed they just went for Dyrl designs for them from 7 on. But this kinda threw me off a bit. Was wondering if there’s an explanation behind all this or not?

    Is it Michael, or Michelle? been rewatching frontier lately and my old bootlegs were a bit confusing over spelling. They’d waffle back and forth. The Hulu subs spell it Michel and it sounds like it’s pronounced like Michelle. I know here in the States it’s extremely rare to be named Michelle and be male, but he does seem to have a French last name, so I wasn’t sure on which name it’s supposed to be.

    That’s definitely one that’s probably true and just as funny as how Dave from Foo fighters gets a bus to do free concerts around certain overly religious protests. I like that some of these guys can find fun non violent ways of dealing with things. I think the real question though isn’t wether it happened with Ozzy, but if he knew it happened, like maybe he accidentally joined the march not realizing that he was protesting himself

    Yeah, Iceman looks far better than I expected, although I kinda wish it was a two pack with a non iced figure of him. I actually kinda like the head a lot on the Punisher. As far as the outfit, I think it needs some work. Looks good from the side view, but straight on a little weird. I think I’ll just hope the figure is popular enough that they do a second version down the line, kinda like how they did a few versions of Wolverine and Cyclops

    I’d love to hear the story on this beat club 1970 show. Some of the songs had very different lyrics, like Hand of Doom. Did they only have the outline written for those songs or did Ozzy just forget the lyrics? I know there are alternative versions on the demos, but wasn’t sure what was going on here.

    Model kits have come a long way, even compared to the Bandai VF-1. But I still prefer non transforming kits. Most of my Gundam just seem to have lasted longer than most of my toys, probably due to lighter weight and simpler construction

    It’s a prototype in the picture, but I’d assume that it’s a two part assembly, just not stick together so great here. Moderoid usually has pretty good fit in the final product, so it will look a lot better in hand
  21. Big s
    Yeah, they’re posted a couple pages back in this thread and in the Moderoid thread. Still waiting for the preorders though. Definitely looking forward to them

    Sounds like they’ve had some issues, but this is going to some extremes. I’d never buy from them if they required that. Maybe try contacting them about the situation and explain why you and probably every customer they have wouldn’t feel comfortable doing that.

    I remember as a kid we didn’t have MTV because our family didn’t have the money for cable and the radio station (Pirate Radio 100.3 for those from So Cal back in the day) had announced he was gonna do an interview. I was really looking forward to it because I was curious about what he had to say. I’d never heard his speaking voice at the time, only his singing voice. Then I was just sitting in my room when the interviewer finally started and I was not prepared for the hilarity that ensued. It was like an episode of Lassie where the guy doing the interview would ask these important sounding questions and all you’d hear from Ozzy was mumble mumble mumble. The interviewer would respond saying stuff like “You heard it here first”. This kinda went on for a while and to this day , I always think back to that day and how I still have no idea what he was saying

    I was just watching some of his stuff. It was tough seeing him have to perform from a throne, but also joyous to hear him one last time. This one really hurts. I love Ozzy’s solo stuff and his classic Black Sabbath songs. Always on my play list on the drive to work. I think we all knew it was coming, but I guess I thought he’d have more time to enjoy his retirement

    That’s the great thing about the hobby, keep it fun.
