  1. If they do go back to the Old Republic era, I'd be worried about which characters they could screw up. The fatigue is real. And the stories just aren't hitting with the same "oomph" as before. Bad Batch ended adequately. And Tales of the Empire was pretty underwhelming. They need to take time to marinade the stories a little more. Honestly, they're getting dangerously close to the point where Star Trek was around the time Voyager and Enterprise were airing. A lot of content is already out there, and the new stuff is either not taking enough risks or seems like rehashes/repeats of older, better told stories.
  2. ^^Nice work there, @pengbuzz. Figure to change the thread a bit and show off an "old" boat: So many cool vehicles from this line!
  3. Was expecting more from Tales of the Empire, but kinda underwhelmed. I guess Dooku and Ahsoka just made more compelling characters and stories, compared to Morgan and Barriss. I like Morgan’s character (and I enjoyed her whuppin’ a certain punk-ass character here), but it all felt very by-the-numbers. Looking back at it, Barriss’ story was interesting but didn’t have that much emotional punch.
  4. Nah, I’ve had my fair share of hard to pose figures over the years. But the old YF-21? It was relatively easy to pose her. Helps that she can hold a solid wide A stance as a starting base. Never had issues with either bird falling from that shelf. Semi-related: I wound up adjusting my M&M Detolf cube. Age and the interconnected dancing pose I got the 1/48’s in has weakened a few of the joints. Still got the pose to work, but had to add a bit of crazy glue to tighten Milia’s hip a bit. And all because they didn’t appear to be looking eye to eye with one another.
  5. The original squadron: . . . And the later updated squadron:
  6. My old setup, back when I'd just add more shelves to display my stuff:
  7. Looks like you have to click ‘em to view ‘em on the board? 🤷‍♂️
  8. Yeah, they did develop Omega and Crosshair more this season. And I’m glad Tech didn’t come back from the dead. But Hunter, Wrecker, and Echo didn’t exactly have much growth throughout this season. I get the Batchers’ “mission” was to protect Omega. And the ending showed that. So, it ended solidly. But I think it’s also fair to say that it didn’t reach the heights of Clone Wars’ or Rebels’ endings.
  9. Thankfully, they avoided most of the cliche possible story endings/plot contrivances with the ending. Definitely not as good as the series endings for Clone Wars or Rebels. But not hair-pulling horrible either.
  10. Makes sense this would be the last song they sing to close out their residency at the Sphere:
  11. The sooner they get away from time travel and multiverse shenanigans, the better. Only the Loki series was able to pull a good story out this stuff. And I was ready to MDK them after Season 1 of it. Deadpool’s probably gonna thumb his nose at all of it. So at least, it will entertain in that regard.
  12. At least, they got rid of the silly head-fins. I probably won’t get this, but as I said before: I’m curious to see what the updated bike mode looks like.
  13. When the fights start getting bonkers or there's lots of jumping and leaping happening, they'll have him put on the cowl. . . . . . and call in the stunt-double/bring in the CGI.
  14. Curious as to how the updated bike mode looks. . . . But everyone knows what I’m waiting to see. Hoping to see colored prototype pics of the burly Tread bastard.
  15. The amount of talent on that stage :
  16. Inspecting the line:
  17. If you ever see the skit with the Muppets and Keegan-Michael Key, yeah, you’ll see Keenan break a few times.
  18. It’s not like they’re talking about someone’s friend, “Biggus Dickus.”
  19. Basically, connecting the Sentinel Legioss with the Toynami Beta. Hoping we would see the full colored prototype of the Sentinel version of the Tread.
  20. Not all of them were home runs, but Yamato did some nice non-canon color schemes that looked great in all three modes.
  21. They really should have mirror imaged a lot of the stickers for this bird: But all that panel-lining experience on Macross birds helped with prettying this one up.
