I heard he's gonna base these initial Blu-rays off the old non-anamorphic copies. (or should that be a )

I've found my shopping list to be getting smaller and smaller over the past few years (must be due to having a wife and kid now ): Intending to Buy: * SW Bastila Shan - assuming the articulation is reasonably good and they use her actual video game appearance as a sculpt reference (including her maroon and pink get-up). Maybe Purchase: * SW Magna Guards - to replace the two ROTS ones (and their limited articulation) that I currently have on display. * GI Joe Low Light - would unbalance my main Joe display, but liked what I saw from the SDCC pics. If I had the Money (AND someone to build, customize, refine, and paint 'em): * 1/2000 Yamato DYRL SDF-1 * 1/60 Yamato Regult And I'm adding my own category: If They Ever Mass-Produce It, It Looks Good, and is Reasonably Priced, I'M ALL OVER IT!!: * SW Bespin Han; * SW KOTOR-era Sith Troopers; * 1/60 VF-17 Nightmare or 1/60 VF-171 Nightmare Plus; * 1/3000 TV-STYLE SDF-1 (because DAEDALUS ATTACK > ARMD Attack)

It's purty!! You weren't kidding about things getting out of hand with the surrounding city. Are you planning to add any other details to the Macross itself, like all those wires and cables that connected it to the city? Very nice work indeed!!

Regarding Renegades, the animation look/style will take some getting used to. Haven't really been following the news about this, but my understanding is that this is geared with a younger audience also in mind?

Great, Galen Marek is gonna get "disintegrated."

They never did find the Commander's body. . . The door's still open to continue the storyline.

Battlestar Galactica Discussion IV with Blood And Chrome
Mog replied to 505thAirborne's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Though if you have to choose between Razor or The Plan, stick with Razor. You get to see some kewl stuff blowned up real good, and the characterizations ain't too shabby either. As for that other one, I just try to think of The Plan as some hastily tacked-on appendix/epilogue. -
I've actually found the following "rotating" method to be the easiest way to remove the FP arm armor: One thing though: make sure the anterior part of the FP isn't locked into the wing root like in the picture above. You'll want to tilt the tailfins into their High-Speed Mode angle before you attach or detach the arm FP's.
-
You might wanna tighten (or loosen) the screw found inside the left landing gear bay. Other posters here have indicated that this helps to fix a floppy wing.

I was gonna post a longer comment. But the refs disallowed it.

That would be the sound of hundreds of jaws on MW dropping yet again.

Pretty sure Graham's been having issues loading up the MW forums ever since the recent board upgrade. This is probably the main reason he disabled his PM's. Getting back on topic, it's really not the kit itself that is amazing; it's all the custom touches that vf_1s put into this that really makes this particular Macross stand out. The paint work; the ridiculous attention to minute details; all the sweet touches and light added to Macross City; the numerous little valks, launch arms, and signals added all over the place; the mechanical modifications that locked the cruiser mode into one solid piece: these are what made this SDF-1 custom AMAZING.
-
A Smurfs remake, huh? Coulda swore we had one just last year. (Yes, South Park did the joke much better than me, of course.)
-
^^And you can use it to gut a tauntaun (for an instant warm, cozy sleeping bag) and for emergency amputations. If that Sith wasn't smart enough to: turn off his lightsaber; Punch or Force-lightning that female Jedi with his free hand; or Use a Force-choke or Force push after that initial hand block. . . .then he deserved to get punked with the ultimate-final-finishing-super-combo Force push. Silly Sith.
-
^^Nah, massive-ass Force-push from the female Jedi. We've seen it already in the Force Unleashed series, so it didn't bug me too much. The bare-handed saber-block? Can't really defend that one. But one thing's for sure: after playing the role of cannon-fodder in that first TOR trailer, it's good to see the Republic troopers getting some serious love in this second trailer.
-
WOW!! I don't think I can add anything more that hasn't already been said. Your acute attention to detail, the level of thought you put into your modifications and touches, and the amount of time and effort you put into this SDF-1 truly shines through. Awesome, AWESOME job!!

I wonder if Yamato will ever do a low-viz grey scheme for the 21 or 22. . . . And I guess this is the point in the thread where I bust out the custom?

Surprised no one on this board has mentioned this cool little modded game before: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/534416 Rather appropriate game for the thread topic.

007-373-5963 For me, my personal fave's would be SMB3 (my all-time favorite Mario game); Tecmo Bowl (and those stupid unstoppable plays!) ; Adventure of Link (found the challenge rewarding); Mike Tyson's Punch-Out (Tyson? Super Macho-Man? No prob'! Mr. Sandman? He'd regularly kick my ass with his special moves!); FFVI (the best in the series); and Chrono Trigger (still haven't gotten all the endings yet). It isn't really reflected in my above list, but the other big difference between the old school games (primarily the 8-bit ones) and the newer ones is that the old games RARELY had a battery back-up. It became a bit of a twisted challenge/merit badge to complete a game in one sitting. I think that little extra challenge is what made playing the games so hard and fun. You'd get to that last level with maybe one or two lives left, thinking to yourself, "Damn it. I'm about to finish this game. I CANNOT make a mistake!!," and the pressure would be on!!

I liked pretty much everything about the finale, except the ending. So, once again, Jack is on the run, having to stay underground and hide his identity. . . only this time, it ain't the Chinese. It's the RUSSIANS!! I think I would have liked the finale a bit more if they broke tradition and added a little epilogue at the end. Pick up the action two or three months later. . . in say, Moscow. One last "interrogation" of Mr. Suvarov and a final satisfying Keifer Kill for the road. (Screw waiting for a movie for an appropriate ending!). Though I gotta admit, it was nice to see President Taylor regain her spine, especially after her straight-up, frakked-up threat to President Counselor Troi-look-alike. Lastly, anyone else catch Mr. Soul-Glo's cameo?
-
Silly Chuck. Fooled twice by the same ol' bug on the collar trick. Guess Jack was channeling his inner Commando Snake Eyes with that get-up too.
