    . . . . Except Hasbro has the toy rights for Star Wars.

    treatment, did you just make Ravage facepalm? That's awesome!!

    . . . . which knowing Hasbro will never be released on time (if ever), will lack adequate articulation, and will be released YEARS after a season has been aired (i.e., a cool character from Season 1 will finally be made into figure form around the time Season 5 rolls around). I really wished they could have squeezed a few more eps out of Clone Wars (an abridged Season 6?) just to wrap up a few of the storylines.

    It'd be hard as hell to top Clancy Brown's Kurgan though.

    ^^Puny Stormtroopers! Of the new figures coming out, I'll only want to pick up the new Padme and Mara Jade figures. The sucky thing though is that I have a feeling that the face paint apps are gonna vary pretty wildly from figure to figure. Meaning I'm gonna have to hope and pray that these things show up in enough numbers at the brick-and-mortar stores.

    A price somewhere in the range of US$500 (including shipping) would be a good negotiation starting point. Of course, I wouldn't be opposed to them pricing it less.

    I'm a simple man: just produce a reasonably priced 1/3000 scale TV-style SDF-1 Macross. That'll bring me back into the collecting game again.

    So based on last week's episode, just who the hell is the Venture twins mommy? Really digged the OSI episode from a couple weeks back too. After the teaser they showed for it, I was kinda worried they'd pull a bait-and-switch with the episode not really being focused on Brock F*ckin' Sampson. Glad my assumptions were wrong! You gotta feel sorry for Brock though:

    As long as we don't later rename the star system Ceti Alpha (or one of the habitable planets Ceti Alpha V), I think we should be good. In all seriousness though, thanks for the info. It's pretty cool to see the advances science is making with this sort of stuff.

    As a GI Joe fan, I'm ashamed that I didn't pick up on the Commander's shrieking voice earlier. However, I preferred the prior week's episode more: Hank going literally batsh*t crazy, a cheetah's inability to climb trees, and all those scenes with the annoying politician just worked for me.

    ^^I thought this was just an unconfirmed, unsubstantiated rumor.

    Saruman/Count Dooku doing metal? The comments on the one below kill me:

    Got to watch the film today. It's solid and has its moments. But I can see where it can be meh or disappoint some folks. The whole but whatever. And after reading the posts here, I now understand why a bunch of Kryptonians going at it would result in a buttload of destruction. But after awhile, the massive wanton destruction became a bit repetitive and too desensitizing for me personally. I mean if Supes cares so much about humans why didn't he Minor nit on my part. However, the dad parts worked for me (freakin' Kevin Costner, Americana, and father-son relationships ). And I liked how they tried to make Superman more relatable, showing how his super-senses and him having to constantly hold back wasn't exactly the easiest thing growing up. His "I grew up in Kansas" line also put a sh*t-eating grin on my face. Lastly,

    ^^Distribution's been pretty horrid for the Star Wars lines. Just check your local brick and mortar stores. Chances are you'll only see a bunch of figures from the Phantom Menace wave. . . . . which originally came out well over a YEAR ago. I'd happily purchase figures from the Vintage line, but it's absolutely impossible to find them anywhere, unless you wanna pay a premium through eBay. We're already halfway through 2013, and they haven't released ANY new figures for their main/collector-friendly line. They also killed off the Clone Wars line prematurely without making figures from the later seasons of that series. Generally speaking, unless there's a movie involved, Hasbro's distribution has been atrocious/insulting when it comes to Star Wars, GI Joe, and Transformer lines.

    ^^Yeah, I'm kicking myself that I never saw it, especially since the Order of the Triad is in it.
  16. Mog
    ^^If they did, they wouldn't be screwing the pooch so royally with their original Star Wars line.

    I know I don't really post on this thread (though I do love to gawk at the pics posted here), but what if TFC had gone with a different transformation process for Uranos' F-16 limb? I've been wondering if a transformation process similar to (but not exactly like) the Go-Bot figure Heatseeker would have been feasible. It might have helped to streamline the fighter mode's fuselage a little bit and reduced the whole "wing with robot kibble hanging from the bottom" look. But then again, there'd be massive seamline running through the middle of almost all of the fighter mode.

    Apparently, there's was a 30-minute Venture Bros. Halloween episode that's supposed to happen in the middle of this episode. . Can't seem to find the damn thing online for free though. Back to the season premiere:
  19. Mog
    Wow, it's taken them this long to give us Season 5?! Anyone catch the 1 hour season premiere last Sunday? "YER A BUM, ROCK!"
  20. Mog
    ^^Nah, this is the message that should be given to Will Smith (pointing out that he's finally become the alien in this scene): Wow. . . . .he passed up Django for THIS.
  21. Mog
    To paraphrase a Jack Nicholson movie: Forget it, Jenius. It's Lindelof.

    A really good friend of mine, who's as big of a Trek fan as me, got to watch a sneak preview of the film last week. He said that as a casual film-goer, he really enjoyed the film. However, he could definitely see how the film would turn off or upset long-time Trek fans. I gave him a link to the spoilers, and he pretty much confirmed that they were accurate. Yeah . . . after getting confirmation that the spoilers are accurate, I ain't paying to see The plot contrivances would just piss me off too much.

    So, this is only "tangently" related to Dark Knight Rises. But I found it freakin' hilarious: Kinda wished they had somehow animated the "money=>bear=>bunny" scene at the end of this though.
  24. Mog
    Going further. . . . assuming these rumors are true:
  25. Mog
    Okay, I just googled those spoilers. If what they're saying is accurate, I just got one thing to say: LINDELOF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
