  1. I'm on it. Though I must warn you, I only ever saw two Revans back when I was hunting (and one of them had a ridiculously messed up card). I also lucked out because I found Revan at Kohl's of all places. Worse yet, between the early hunters/scalpers and the crappy selection at my nearby stores, my local area is kinda sucky for toy-hunting now. However, one way or another, I am gonna get that Bastila figure. So, if I find an extra one along the way, I'll get it for you.
  2. Thank you, Spies Like Us!! I heard the above hook in this classic movie, looked at the soundtrack online, and BOO-YAH! Not really feeling that part at the very beginning, but definitely love the rest of it.
  3. My sentiments exactly. Look, I realize there's some political subtext/message in the film. But personally, it didn't detract me from enjoying the rest of the film. I mean seriously, how can you not enjoy a film where the hero eviscerates a bad guy, pulls said bad guy's small intestine out, and then uses that small intestine as a rope to swing down to the level below? Everything about this movie is so over the top that you just gotta throw your hands up in the air and just enjoy the ride.
  4. Just when you think you've seen it all, this film busts out some of the most awesome, over-the-top violent bits I have ever seen. Absolutely loved it!! Machete Kills cannot come out fast enough!! . . . And then I washed my hands!
  5. ^^Thanks!! Glad to see that the SDF-1 doesn't "look" significantly shorter than the 1/48. Yes, I realize they're at different scales and all. But I was definitely hoping that the 1/3000 would still look taller or equal in height to the 1/48s. Here's hoping they go forward with making a TV version.
  6. Could one of you fine gentlemen who have acquired this please post a comparison pic of this beast in Attacker mode next to a 1/48 VF-1 in battroid mode? Moggy's curious to see how these two look next to one another.
  7. Hopefully, this is a good sign and will give Yamato more incentive to make a genuine TV-style Macross. <fingers crossed> Also, are there any comparison pics out there now of this DYRL Macross next to a 1/48 VF-1?
  8. Thanks for the thorough review, complete with pics and vids no less!! As our own "thank you," do you want us to send you some stong sedatives or a few tranqulizers to shut the yappers on those dogs? Definitely love how solid the figure and transformation look. Hopefully, this does well enough to warrant a genuine TV-style release!
  9. I'll keep it small scale. I just want a nice nap and some honest to goodness relaxation. No running around to multiple family or friend's parties. No having to stress out over some stupid tasks or unnecessary projects. Just give me one whole day to be selfish. And let me stay at home and chill. Let ME do whatever I want or feel needs to be taken care of for the whole day. And let me get to do those things without interruptions. . . . On second thought, how about world peace instead? It'll be easier to accomplish than my above request!
  10. Can't believe it's taken me this many years to make the connection. But I just realized that the hair on the Comic Pack Mara Jade looks very similar to Misa's cinnamon-bun hairstyle. Also, will I lose my Macross World street cred' for admitting that I'm absolutely digging this head chest shin-kicking figure?:
  11. Surprised no one touched upon this yet concerning the YF-21. But I find it pretty "innovative" that they were able to take the best features of the VF-1 Valkyrie and the Q-Rau and blend them together to come up with a beautiful, separately distinct design. Seriously, someone looked at the big, burly form of the Q-Rau (with its spindly legs, the cannons on its arms, and those huge hulking backpack thrusters) and figured out a way to get that general battroid form to fit into the sleek, "skinny-bitch" fighter profile of the YF-21. That perfect mixing human and Zent design traditions? THAT'S what I consider innovative.
  12. Ya know, that "VF-**" Graham was referring to could also be the VF-0D. In all likelihood, it probably is the -17. But you never know.
  13. I realize we may have to go through the whole "expensive, larger-scale exclusive to make the smaller 1/3000 version" thing again. But I'd rather have a 100% accurate TV version. I've always been a bigger fan of the TV-style SDF-1 (Big nostalgia factor bonus there). So, I'd rather wait for a proper TV-style SDF-1 to mount the Daedalus and Prometheus to. Besides, I'm a patient man; I can wait (and save money) until someone does the TV version right.
  14. Considering how Dallas and Houston are doing this season though, he doesn't have to live in fear. And as much as it pains me to say this, there's that whole six to five thing.
  15. I should have known Matt and Trey would do something like that. Unlike most comic books though, at least they stayed consistent with past episodes and didn't try to pull off some way-out-there, crazy retcon. Also, I absolutely love Mysterion's pissed-fueled, angry rants. After experiencing all those incidents over the years, I think the character deserved his moment to bitch, moan, and complain about his life.
  16. Years from now, my daughter is either gonna say, "Dad, that is freakin' AWESOME!!" Or more likely, "Seriously, Dad? You made me dress up as THAT? "
  17. I thought the first part of Coon and Friends was a little meh (loved the continuity though with the Killer Whale and Tom Cruise still lying on the moon). But they definitely made up for it with the second part. Somehow, having be Mysterion just seems to make sense. PULL THE DAMN TRIGGER, YOU P*SSY!!
  18. Okay, who here would love to have this Iron Man costume? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ASE_mRXXH8
  19. Just to chime in, let's not forget that the Beta was engineered/designed by Aoshima(sp?). I still give Toynami major props for finally releasing the Beta, but we still have to give credit to where credit is due. Getting back on topic, I recall a number of people on the boards (maybe even Graham himself) saying that it would have been impossible to have the gunpods internally mounted and keep the fighter profile as sleek as it is on the VF-DoubleDeuce.
  20. Thanks. It sucks that I had to box a bunch of the Valks and Alphas that used to occupy the space (Well, they were Toynami's though. ) But it's amazing how much nicer the shelf looks now that there's fewer items up on there.
  21. "Thank you Mario! But our princess is in another castle." ------------------------------------------ ""You are a very harsh master, Master. I like you." ------------------------------------------ "If I see one more idiot attacking a Jedi with a blaster pistol I'll kill them myself!" ------------------------------------------ "Mines are also effective, since many Jedi will run to meet you in hand to hand combat. Silly Jedi."
  22. For a second there, I thought, "Wait, wait, wait, wait, WAIT!! He traded a Thunder Hummer for a Speeder bike?! " Glad to see I was wrong. Very nice custom camo scheme though.
  23. Okay, so only half the mechas are Macross-related. Hope you still enjoy it: Side View:

    From the album: Mog's Yammy Collection

    Yes, it's not all Macross in there. Yes, there's only one Yammy in there. Yes, the scales are all mixed up (with a 1/55, a 1/60, and a couple of 1/whatever-the-hell-scale-they-are Alphas). But I really don't care. I like how they all look together.
