The Alien/Predator/Aliens vs. Predator Thread
Kanedas Bike replied to VT 1010's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
No, I am not kidding you, did I add a laugh emoji or a "lol"? If it's a bridge too far you, then fair enough but it certainly was not for me, and again seems pretty on-par for how "the company" has been portrayed for years, across multiple mediums. 🤷♂️ -b. -

Romulus is a good movie, it very much leaned into Alien in feel and tone, going back to it's roots of sci-fi horror vs. other entries in the series that were more action oriented. For anyone concerned that the trailers showed too much, there were still plenty of surprises to be had. There are a lot of callbacks, they range from "hey! that's cool" to "oh, for f#cks sake" but none of them ruin the movie. My only real gripe is I'd rank the movies in this order - Aliens Alien Alien: Romulus Alien: Resurrection (hated the stupid hybrid, wasn't bothered by clone Ripley but this gets points for not being the movie that killed Hicks and Newt) Alien 3 Alien: Covenant Prometheus (beautifully shot film, populated by the some of the stupidest characters ever put on screen) -b. -
ThreeZero ROBOTECH (Macross) Toys
Kanedas Bike replied to kyekye's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
ThreeZero's Transformers lines, especially the DLX have been fantastic. In fact every ThreeZero product that I own (and opened) has been well worth the money. I don't know anything about their customer services as I've never had the occasion or need to use it. I'll pick one of these up based on the strength of their Transformer releases alone. -b. -
Deadpool & Wolverine - July 26, 2024

Can. Not. Wait. Getting Ryan and Hugh on screen together as these two characters is worth the price of admission. Especially after their hilarious back and forth for years. -b.- 263 replies

Andor (Star Wars: Andor) - Disney+
Kanedas Bike replied to sh9000's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Totally get it, hopefully the show (characters especially) get better for you. I know my enjoyment of a movie or TV show is extremely dependent upon how I feel about the characters. I absolutely didn't like Cassian when he was introduced in Rogue One, but it was okay because he wasn't the star, Jyn was, but I warmed to him by the end. So I enter the show with a slight affinity for the character and I have no issues with his motivations or how he's written. -b. -
Cool, cool - no argument here. My point was simply that their price, appropriate or not to however they're sourcing it, or any other factors, doesn't surprise me. And that when I look at them, it's usually for the sake of comparison. -b.

Andor (Star Wars: Andor) - Disney+
Kanedas Bike replied to sh9000's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Besides The Mandalorian the live action Star Wars shows have been a mixed bag (often from episode to episode), but Andor has been consistently fantastic 3 episodes in. -b. -
BBTS is rarely the cheapest option, when I buy from them I just look to see how competitive their prices are to other sources. And thanks for posting the Good Smile link, I didn't think to look at their own webstore. Good to know! Thx -b.

Samus is up at AmiAmi (went up last night); https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail?gcode=FIGURE-145210 They are the only of the big three, HLJ, AmiAmi and Hobby Search that has a listing. The release date is October of next year so that would reconcile BBTS's release date. -b.

It was really just the cannon fodder 171's to be fair. But those flat out disintegrated given enough time. The infamous triangles, legs, etc. The 31AX just have terrible, terrible, terrible fit and finish. -b.

Glad I quickly cancelled my subscription to that build-an-Enterprise D. I really was excited for it, but I'm glad my apprehension won out in the end. I'm bummed because it was at least nice to have a company producing ships from Star Trek. -b.

Just watched the first episode of She-Hulk, it was honestly much better than I expected. And absolutely a comedy. -b.- 1415 replies

There are ways to get these things for less than what I paid, of that I'm sure. And I personally was okay with paying a smidge more upfront for this release, especially with an "easy button" like purchasing from places like Big in Japan and others, but I would never begrudge someone for being smarter or more strategic with how or when they buy. As mentioned; Forwarding Services/Proxies Being patient and diligent just after release Getting lucky with reputable etailers or eBay sellers Between MWF and just good ole Google I've learned a lot about how to buy exclusives like this, but there's still so much I don't know, haven't tried yet, etc. -b.
