  1. Can’t wait to see this dinosaur brought back to life.
  2. This is the part that has me convinced it will go their way.
  3. I still drive by an old spot that used to be my favorite hobby shop because they would get old school kits from Macross and Dougram and Mospeada and a bunch of other cool stuff I had never seen before. I think it’s unfortunately just a nail salon now, but I still look over to that spot and have my memories of how cool the place used to be back in the day.
  4. When you wish wave did a Spartan in 1/72, but double checked and it’s not even in the pipeline. Honestly I’ve always thought that for such an old kit that it looks pretty good. When I was younger I could only find the smaller 1/100 Arii and while being a little scrawny, it was actually more fun than I expected.
  5. I’m pretty sure that if this ever does make it into the courts that it will get dragged out for so long that the apps will already have merged long before a decision is ever made. I think they were planning on totally sunsetting whatever HBO is nowadays and pretty sure to keep release dates on track that things will already be rolling before fall if not sooner. We already know the big roadblock legally to the Netflix merger is happy right now about this The bigger question is if Paramount will be able to bring in the subscribers since if the HBO app is sunset then everyone has to resubscribe to the new service? I know people love their game of thrones, but are they gonna rush over to the new platform right away? Might be a lot of people not wanting to go through the hassle. Then again, Supergirl might be the greatest movie of the decade and everyone scrambles to pick up that subscription. I think that the decision of the public will be the deciding factor of wether this all ends up a financial success or a total failure
  6. I do feel like there were a few good moments here and there. And the Mandarin was definitely the best thing going for the show, but in comparison I think Barry did a much better job of the inside Hollywood thing. Not necessarily for realism, but more for entertainment. I never felt bored with Barry, while Wonderman was really really dull. I think cutting the show into a two to two and a half hour movie still would’ve had enough time to show all the good and trim out everything that really wasn’t necessary and could’ve been a really good little streaming movie.
  7. Questions like this will only get people banned here.
  8. Then they’ll never find time to make a Tomahawk
  9. I guess the main difference is a dude that finds a gundam versus a guy that just totally throws one together with junk.
  10. It’s from a manga, Double Fake. It’s about a junker that kinda builds his own stuff outta trash and gets caught up in a conflict This is the second kit from the series, they did the D gundam first last year
  11. I remember many decades ago knowing that one dude in the neighborhood that had copies of the films and a watch of them would be highlights of sleepovers. Pre internet and very little information, kids couldn’t figure out if they were real or not and everyone would either debate their legitimacy or be jealous they missed out on the fun. I don’t think that something like that would be anywhere near as entertaining now though since everyone knows the truth and can easily find more disturbing videos by just doing a google search
  12. I don’t really do resin stuff, but on plastic, if it’s a wider gap that needs some shaping, I’ll use Milliput epoxy, but if you’re really looking into having a lot of projects, something like the aves in the tub might be better. If you can get ahold of resin putty, that stuff is usually really great. One of the few tamiya products that I really liked was their resin putty, but it’s like a unicorn trying to find the stuff.
  13. A couple new Hammond collection Dino’s up for preorder. Dryosaurus and sinoceratops looks like they have detachable jaws rather than jointed ones.
  14. I liked the first, may as well go for the second. I still hate that the best stuff is still the web exclusives
  15. Yeah, I gotta say that it does look more like the art though. But personally, I’m with you and more interested in the RG.

    Never cared for the Kai, I think it’s the face, but would’ve got the blazers
  17. You never know these days. Retro is hot right now. Maybe moderoid I remember that was also involved with Southern Cross, but I don’t really remember to what extent
  18. I was thinking the same. Not really caring too much about the figures since I feel like they were less adventurous characters, but the fighters and ships were cool. I do think B5 overall is still better than Star Trek, but I always think of Trek as always having some type of crazy action. BSG had even more of an action feel and I totally see why they’re making figures for it, but B5 was more politics and ship battles than hand to hand so definitely would be cooler to have ship and fighters. Personally would really like to see models of the fighters by a decent company
  19. Definitely hoping for 1/18, I really don’t know where to put a 1/6th Airwolf. Heck I don’t really know where to put a 1/18th one either, but I’d definitely find a way
  20. Oddly the red madder seems to be the one I actually see in stock most of the time. But those metallics and Gaia paints are a totally different story. Like you gotta bribe someone for those, and even then it doesn’t get to you right away

    No better time than now to learn some new skills. The wave ones are supposed to be snap kits for an easy build. Maybe try a couple cheap entry grade kits to get a feel. One for slapping together and maybe one to try something like minor paint and decals
