  1. Will we get some original, and hopefully good, new fighter designs?
  2. Wish it were live action, but animated will still be cool, especially in that timeframe.
  3. I took my sons on Saturday, it was stupid fun and had me laughing more than I expected I would. I thought I would hate it, but I had fun.
  4. I was experimenting with a neat 3D printable device called a mantis clamp. For any model that has something hanging off the bottom and isn't completely flat it's actually pretty dang good. Here's some photos of it in use. Most of my examples were 3D printed but anything light like a model it should be fine. Even odd shapes like an X-Wing worked.
  5. Not so hard to believe. The VF-11 is basically the Macross equivalent of an F-16 or F-18. It's a great all-around fighter but nothing spectacular. So the YF-19 and YF-21 are developed to support and supplant it, but like the F-22 only end up getting produced in limited numbers to be used by the top pilots, instead of being the equivalent of an F-15 as intended. The VF-171 then becomes the logical follow on a decade or so later being their F-35, which makes a ton of sense when you realize that the F-35 is basically the evolution of the F-117 that can carry more armaments, have better avionics, and can defend itself. The "hero" fighters in MacF and Delta are then basically the NGAD or FA-XX equivalents.
  6. Yikes, that is crazy. Liver Transplant complications?
  7. One of the things to consider is this, many indie authors (raises hand) who publish through KDP are locked into that and cannot sell through other venues for a set period (can't recall at the moment), and if you want into Kindle Unlimited then it is even longer. So, if you can, please support indie authors, reviews, spreading the word, etc... helps them (us) a lot. ANd with nonsense like this going on they need the support even more. Also, many, if their books get pulled will send you the epub for free, if you can prove you bought it. On top of that indie books often disappear for other reasons, I had to pull previous versions of my books when I changed publishers, so sometimes that might be what is happening. Also, revised versions of e-books are not that uncommon, with the revision getting pushed after you download/puchase it, and it that way you benefit because you do not have to purchase a new revision.
  8. Well if you want to support you local MW Sci-Fi author.... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B3QXB67D Just going to leave that here. All available in kindle or print (and can be signed if you are ever in Tucson, AZ).
  9. Man this is awesome. You could release this as a 3D print files with instructions on how to assemble and transform.
  10. Doing me rewatch now. I did kind of skim the first half of Mac-7, the second half is definitely where it gets good. And I finally saw Frontier: Labyrinth of Time. I emjoyed it. Just started Delta, will be seeing the movies for the first time this way. I still prefer the Frontier Movies to the series (overall). And Flashback 7 was good, especially in that it cut out so much of the Mac7 filler.
  11. Season 1 was a serious blast and a ton of fun, looking forward to this season too.
  12. It can only launch small drones and helicopters. And I love how their 60% scale UCAVs are just smaller versions of their super duper "stealth fighter."
  13. https://www.uasvision.com/2025/02/10/irans-drone-aircraft-carrier-has-entered-service/ BWAHAHA!!!
  14. I helped restore that plane as a senior project.
  15. Well that was complete and total ass, where's the eye bleach?
  16. Late to the game on this one, I know, but I picked up Project Wingman on Steam and cannot figure out how to get it to register my HOTAS. The online forums from a couple years ago have been no help. Has anyone been able to get their HOTAS to work in game? I refuse to play with keyboard and mouse.
  17. WTF happened to the character art style? No way.
  18. I'm thinking either this: Or this: I keep my monitor just beyond arm's reach.
  19. I am finally ready to pull the trigger on a new monitor setup and am debating betwee either and LG OLED 45" Curved, or 48" Flat. I ruled out the 49" curved after doing a side by side with a 45" curved and I like the extra vertical real estate. THoughts?
  20. Um yeah, super huge reveal and really throwing any historical accuracy out the window.
  21. Freaking awesome, can't wait to see it for sale and what the community does with it in terms of paint schemes.
  22. I am super curious to see how they folded away the cockpit in docked and battroid modes because it just gone as far as I can see.
  23. That's Vandy-1, it is a bird that flies pretty exclusively out of CHina Lake for flight test purposes. The coolest flight test bird flying.
  24. Yes, always have, it is just more obvious with larger weapons. With those on it handles like a pig however, figure they are just shy of 2000lbs each.
