i agree with most answers here, I'm not really die hard or totally hating it, but i did suffer thru the first 12 episodes, from there (for me) that's when it started takin off.
Maybe Phatslappy isn't getting it for himself! Maybe its for a little "bedroom fun"
Later that evening
Phatslappy: "Now, you have to pretend your name is Minmei. I put the orange sheets on the bed, and we will call that the Super Ostrich...."
now that is really bad....ROTFL!
now that i look at it (again) Max has the forearm missle/armor pack on, but the gunpod is mounted on the side of it! look at the 4 cap panel a few responses up from mine, in the lower left screencap, see?
