  1. Catching up on Nier:Automata.
  2. Everyone except me. 😅 I'm still gonna hold out for a low-vis/stealth repaint.
  3. The whole initial concept of pop-up parade, was to give fans figma figures sized at a affordable price while sacrificing all articulation and accessories. (Their way of competing against bandai's figu-zero.) Now, the line is creeping up in price, and they're also making unique sculpts at double the scale and double the price...

    Macross figures

    Steampunk.
  5. Well... This thread has been a quite read. Adding my few lines then bailing before it gets too hot around here. - Since Disney purchased SW, it's tried it's hardest to transform a boy brand into a girl brand. It's failed. And keeps failing. - Acolyte was always bound to step on this shattered franchise and break it into more little pieces. They hired a questionable director with the CLEAR objective to project her personal contemporary "views" which she was even open about in interviews, all while being smug as she tossed both SW lore and the basic of story telling into the bin. - Every Disney SW attempt has been plates filled with slimy expired member-berries. For anyone trying to the defend any minimal millimeter of the Acolyte, then they're NOT SW FANS. They're just the perfect consumers.
  6. Walter White started all this. But's it's damn hard copying him. Nothing miss-understood there. Straight up murderous thug. Exactly how the original Penguin is. Somewhere in the Multi-Verse 🤣 (It's the now the favorite story patch of all these franchises' writers.)
  7. They could *do a Collin Farrel to Pengiun make over... that's the only logical move here.
  8. Forgotten about this. And they're seriously doing the whole "Isn't really a villian. Just a miss-understood good bad guy." 🤦‍♂️
  9. Nobody forced Robert here. He accepted the cheque with the extra zeroes.
  10. Incoming Top gun 2 by Hobby Masters. F-14, Bandit Nation F/A-18E Super Hornet, Dagger
  11. I went down the phase briefly of buying double and triples, so to have one open, one left sealed, and sometimes a third kept in the original shipping box with the plastic wrap. It was a crazy. But I don't feel too ashamed as an acquaintance during the Yamaha/Arcadia peak, he literary brought 4 of 5 of each of those valks and also went crazy with the vintage 1/55. Three to display in each mode, and 1 or 2 to keep sealed. But the master plan to eventually have this great display room of valks from wall to wall, never came to be as he lost interest. Last I heard he's trying hard to flog his entire collection of almost 300 valks in bulk, but as he's asking for premium e-bay prices, he's still stuck with it. Now it's years I buy singles, fewer, open them, and enjoy them more.
  12. That went into the deep during the strike, even though apparently, accordingly to Reddit "experts", pre-production was already almost completed (?).
  13. The CGI of the mechs is ok... what's dreadful is the character's animation, especially the lip sync and horrifying non-blinking stare they all have. PS3 looks better.
  14. We've all been down that road. Before I flogged most of my collection due to moving countries, I found figures I forgot about and said "I spent so much on just this one figure? Why?" I'm keen on this too, but the deal breaking will be the shipping type with likely handling fees to Europe... We'll see.
  15. We're still waiting for this one, but Todd design team is also known to troll fans at times. That was it, the hip articulation, and yeah, forgot about how stupid expensive the masked version was, which they knew, as it's the one everyone wants. Thank you. Standard release. With all those extra goodies, I still wouldn't mind dropping $70-$80 at my local store for it. And knowing them, they'll probably put the Spartan helmet and normal helmet at the highest price tiers.
  16. You can't say it's for the best. There's a great deal of the population that doesn't enjoy reading the screen while not being fully absorbed by the visuals. Yeah sure, there's not so good dubs, but certainly if we understood Japanese, we would also be complaining how there's also some not so good Japanese voice actors.
  17. I still have 3 of those sealed... need to sell them. Yeah, I remember the original kickstarter. Didn't budge due to shipping+customs to Europe and then there was something about the articulation that put me off back then... can't remember what exactly...
  18. Well played. It's funny, cause I use this at work and with my friends 🤣
  19. Too much fail here.
