The Old Man had Nookie on the Brain. It can cause you to not think straight and occasionally forget your priorities. It's a common condition in men ages 13 through 80. ********************* But give the Admiral credit: he did mind frak with Zarek enough to get the Tillium ship back. So, I guess Cally had a Hot Dog before marrying the (Ex-)Chief.

Damn! I think this will be the only time EVER where I have an equal number of fighters as 'Zilla!!

I believe that's supposed to be Wave 12, the repaint wave with the Cobra Diver and a couple other repainted/reused figures. I've seen them out for a month or two now (The troopers, that is. Never the Divers.).

Max finally got sick of it. The maintenance on his Valk was constantly getting pushed back because of "essential repairs" to the destroids. So, he decided to take matters into his own hands and get to the ultimate root of the problem..... I know; it's an old pic. Plus, I was still ignorantly using the flash back then.

That's pretty asinine. I e-mailed them once with suggestions about how to best design the Beta (mostly rachet-jointing certain parts), and I'm certain I mentioned the Floppy Arm Syndrome on the Alphas in that e-mail. If they consider this more of a design flaw, then they're just being petty about semantics. But enough talk about Toynami's deluded perception of reality......Let's get back to them Beagles!

Man, what's with all this talk about Millia's Q-Rau kicking VF butt, Destroid ass, and all sorts of unholy hell?! Don't make me bust out that old pic of Max putting Millia's Q-Rau in its place.

No. Only the most decisive and determined of people can handle the bastard love-child that is the YF-21. Did Guld have to consult a committee before he volunteered to take on the Ghost X-9?!!

YF-21: kid tested, eugi approved.

Yup, low levels of radiation. I think Baltar advised the scout folks not to drink the water in an early scene too. Probably was a big factor as to why they left.

Of course not, but it's an outright shame that no toy company has made a large-scale, updated version of the franchise's signature ship (strict adherence to the 1/60 scale be damned!). Yeah, I know we have the smaller Wave version. But I want something with enough heft and enough gravitas to show the casual observer that this ship, this robot is the head honcho. Heck, it's pretty damn shameful that we have the Macross Quarter coming out soon, but no original Macross anywhere on the horizon (not that I have anything against the Macross Quarter being produced, mind you ). With the length of the main guns being a factor, the SDF-1's definitely gotta be between 2.5 feet and 3 feet long to fit my personal criteria.

Sometimes going through the darkness makes you appreciate the returning light all the more. I think you can forgive the show and this episode specifically though. I mean, c'mon, their whole mission, their single-driven purpose, their ultimate objective was to find Earth and settle with their lost bretheren. I think you gotta give them a little leeway since that plan went straight to hell in a nuclear handbasket. Of course they're gonna be cynical and feeling depressed! Heck, just look at our own world for a milder example: we're currently going through a standard economic recession, and yet, everyone is feeling a little more down and cynical. It's just a part of human nature. As for the Cylons getting integrated into the fleet and us getting a look into the Cylon culture? Umm, yeah, I guess a TV series with part of its focus being on a mysterious/unknown enemy who attacks your planet, has a slightly different culture (or lack thereof) from you, and winds up eventually being integrated into your society just doesn't jive all that well with you......especially when the title of the series is the name of the main capital ship, such as Battlestar Galactica or Macross.

Did we ever get enough folks to jump in on this? Looks like gets the "I Told You So" kudos.

2.5 to 3-foot long TV-STYLE SDF-1. The namesake of the franchise needs to be an imposing sight for the eyes, towering/lording over all of its offspring and charges. Since I'm nearing the end of my mecha collecting, only this (and maybe some 1/60 Regults) would pull me out of semi-retirement.

I think my initial reaction during all the big revelations (other than the one that's been spoiled out on the Internet for awhile): WHAT THE FRAK!!? I know I've said it in the past, but it begs to be said again: Col. Tigh is THE FRAKKEN MAN!!!!!!! I loved, LOVED, LOVED that scene of his on the ship! Wonder how the whole "harbinger of death" will play itself out. Of course, we also still have Athena's and Roslin's opera house dream that needs some explainin' too. Here's hoping they keep this kind of pace and reach a good resolution/conclusion.

^^Does she come with the beanie?

Those mid-transformation pics of the Beagle are SICK!!

Very nice City Camo scheme!! It's always fun to see the work of a true master.

"It's Fumbles; it was always Fumbles." Two posters over at HissTank.com already did customs of this Supreme Agent of Snipe. PM'd ya back, Vermillion21. Schweet, I'll get to fully gear up my custom Crazylegs soon. EDIT: Edited for grammur n' stuff.

Chloe vs. Garofalo........NERD FIGHT!!!!!

It could be worse: it could've been Rick F'ng Berman!

No comments on the two-hour premiere? Not too shabby. I always get a kick out of Jack's "interrogation" methods. Though, that Hollywood-style roll off the boat seemed a bit cliche. I'm a little worried about 24's re-treaded plots rearing their ugly heads again (moles and crazy First Spouses who may know the TRUTH!!), but we'll see how the season pans out. Lastly, I know I'm too much of a sci-fi geek when I start noticing the guest stars based on their work on other shows, such as: 1) The Engineer Guy being played by Dr. Phlox from Enterprise; 2) The a-hole Senator being played by Red "Dumbass" Foreman (or if you prefer, the bad-guy from Robocop I); and 3) The mid-level/middle-management-type terrorist dude played by freakin' Methos!

^^Yeah, it was an AWESOME quote!!

Just don't forget who finally took down the Ghost X-9. FEAR THE BASTARD LOVE-CHILD!!!!

While you're waiting for jenius to do a proper comparison pic for your request, I did an almost similar comparison pic back in the day: Link. The differences: 1) Used the 1/60 Version ONE VF-1, instead of Version Two. 2) Used the 1/60 YF-19, instead of the VF-25. 3) No Beta linked to the Toynami Alpha (since the Beta hadn't been released yet). Additional pics (but not in the fanned-out style you requested) can be found in this thread: Link.
