The top of the thigh is diecast (rotational joint at the top), while the remainder is plastic; that said, the rest of the thigh is two pieces that screw together, so it's not the one-piece of the original G1. Here's a pic: And then while putting it back, I found out that I was completely wrong about the overtravel and flexing forward: At first I thought "$#1T, I broke it!!", until I realized it wasn't flopping or wobbling around. With this in mind, there's also the front of the knee, which is indeed a plastic plate that's stationary (inset for engraved "decal) that could well be modified to hinge forward and allow more forward motion on the knee if they chose. It wouldn't be unreasonable, given that they also modified the back of the calf/ lower leg on ML:UM. I would like to see someone do a third party back cover for the figure though, to cover over at least the cab. We'll have to see.- 17898 replies

Are you telling me Xenomorphs are blue-collar?

Well, progress on my latest project: The first is when I first burned my arm; the second is a few minutes ago. I guess I got the "mottling" down... just needs decals and some dullcote.

That is just sad.

Now I picture a Xenomorph version of Gordon Ramsay doing the following to one of the dumb crew members: Normally I like Michael Fassbender, but he just didn't sit well with me in either of the movies. Just personal preference I suppose. The rest of the movie I honestly had tried to watch, but after multiple tries (my "bits and pieces" comment), I gave up. I understand your point; I guess stupidity just overloads my "hr geigercounter" too much here.

Guess Titan Comics and HG aren't the only ones who can rip off artwork...

The two engines we see in the background of Mos Eisley on Tatooine for the landspeeder scene (Obi-Wan and Luke) in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope?

They don't; I have him and as near as I can tell, they don't have any. Watching the promo video for it, it looks like they may have modified the cab's lower legs at the knee joint so it can travel forward (0:58): The front of the knee (where the "sticker" would be) looks like a plate, and it may actually hinge outward/down to allow the thigh to bend forward.- 17898 replies

On that note: it makes me wonder what the aliens' observations about humans would be (if they kept some sort of journal)? Oh, you mean the Magneto android? : I only saw bits and pieces of that movie; I didn't want to sever my higher brain functions for it.

Makes me wonder; but again, you raise some good points.

Seems to be an entire case study in "how to let arrogant people lead morons to unleash the apocalypse upon an unsuspecting planet." As for "Boy Kavalier", I have a better name for him, but I think MWF rules prohibit me from posting it.

True, but as you stated, not as CMO.That makes me wonder if the stage is being set for his stepping down from that position.

I wonder how many more of these questionable moments of "judgment" (or lack thereof) are going to be tolerated before M'Benga is either reassigned or otherwise canned? I know if McCoy started acting like this, Kirk would at the least have had severe questions about his fitness as CMO.

Yeah; he has that look of "I need a drink"...

I agree about Pike's hair; it was better in Discovery. As for MASH; I highly recommend the show. Really good episodes, and some not so great ones as well, but overall a classic!

Sounds like something you'd order in an NYC Deli

Glad I could be of help; Arbit deserves the lion's share of the credit though, as he did the work on them! All I did was to point you in the right direction.
