Why didn't anyone here tell me about these earlier?!! NEW Bandai Nirvash Spec 2 The END Based on other figures in this Bandai Robot Damashii series, these things will probably be around 19 to 20 cm tall. And they're not model kits and do not require assembly. Credit to Toyark.com for bringing these to my attention.

<sigh> The things I do for my wife . . . Roy: It's about damn time you did another photo-shoot. Roy: What the . . . Roy: You CAN'T be serious?! Roy: <sigh> Damn you, Mog . . .

C'mon now. Everybody knows the best weapons to use against zombies are: * LP records (especially Sade ones); and * Cricket bats!

^^That would have given everyone two headaches each: a headache in our heads (for her confusing origins) and a headache in our pants (for the skin-tight outfit she wears).

I'm probably fighting a losing battle here, but what are the chances we can confine all news and info. about the Rise of Cobra stuff to this other thread instead? Yeah, I realize we've already talked about the Resolute stuff in this thread. But I think we can all agree that Resolute is a much more worthy and deserving successor than the live-action movie will ever be. It also doesn't help matters when the new toys for Rise of Cobra have those dreaded over-sized, action feature-style weapons. Or worse, they change the Night Raven into a lock-and-load gun. Besides, accelerator suits will have no place in this man's main display shelf :

If she truly loves you, she won't mind the collection. Or if that fails, just wave your hand and tell her, "You don't mind this toy collection."

Does the S.O.B. re-grow a mouth or something? Maybe even saying something like "F*CK THAT HURT!" Other than that, what would be the point of bringing Deadpool back without his quippy mouth?

How about a TV-style ANYTHING, especially: * 1/60 Q-Rau's; * Macross/SDF-1; * Roy VF-1S; and * 1/60 Regults. True, the more recent releases are slowly rectifying this issue. But the TV series needs to be shown a little more love and attention.

Amway. They get all their sh*t from Amway. BTW, the updated HISS tanks looked pretty cool. Glad they updated the clear glass canopy into something a little more armored and fortified.

I just rechecked the end of episode 3, and Wild Bill definitely said, "...And then I guess I'm flying the pair of you to Siberia." Considering he was the only primary pilot in that Joe line-up, it would make sense for Wild Bill to be the pilot of the transport and not "Ripcord*", the HALO jumper. I got nothing against "Ripcord*" tagging along for the mission (It's logical that he would be helping Duke and Scarlett out with the glider/parachute equipment, as its his specialty.). But it kinda bugged me that the so-called "Ripcord*" became the defacto pilot and lead of the transport at the expense of Wild Bill. Especially after they ended episode 3 with that above line from ol' Bill.

I expect better from you, Dante74. No arrow pointing out Connery's E.O.P. = FAIL!!

So, what did everyone think of the ending to Resolute? I thought it was solid, and they certainly left the door ever so open for a potential follow-up series. It's definitely an improvement over the old Sunbow cartoons. But there were some bits and story choices made that I didn't completely agree with. One minor question though: I thought Wild Bill was supposed to be the one piloting the craft that dropped off and picked up Duke and Scarlett. So, why the heck was "Ripcord*" the guy that became the defacto pilot of that pickup craft? Damn live-action movie tie-in crap! One other thing that surprised me is that credits really only listed four voice actors for all of the major parts (unless you count voice cameo as Snake Eyes ...... ).

Kinda sucks about the lack of internal gunpod storage. That was really the one area where the -22 really trumps the -21.

Do you REMEMBER. . .THAT OLD LULLABY?!! It's nowhere near a match to the image from the OP. But considering how the combo was angled on this shelf; how I had to position, tilt, and hold the camera to get this shot; and how I tried to do all this without the aid of a tripod. . .I was pretty pleased with how well (and clear) this photo came out.

Don't smack me if you've already heard his stuff, but have you listened to Nujabes and the rap artists that he usually works with? Damn good hooks and riffs that Nujabes produces.

I finally got some free time to snap off a few pics from the ADV DVD set: All of these drawings (along with some lineart pics of the Ride Armors, Treads, Legiosses, Inbit, and side-arms) can be found on Disc 3 of the DVD set. There's also few more character sheets on the DVD's that I didn't snap pics of. Hope this helps you out!

Totally agree with you there. Also, other than the original 1/60's, has Yamato ever given us a properly colored TV-style Roy pilot yet?
