  1. RT’s from a copied and poorly translated language! 😜 In all seriousness, Mospeada is one of the few animes where some of the characters are from South America. Back to the Tread, I hope I’m able to squeeze that combined fighter into a Detolf. Gonna be tricky with the figures I already have in that shelf:
  2. Is it just me, or does it look like the bomber prototype is missing the back missile rack? From what I remember with the Toynami, the back landing gear aren’t in the front “crotch” piece; they’re in the back booster that becomes the soldier mode butt. Traditionally, the front landing gear is on the connecting boom. But @Perxion’s head and chest transformation is what I was suspecting too. It’s just that notch in the neck collar is throwing me off. I’ll probably be like Angier in The Prestige and obsess over this (and discover it’s a real simple and obvious solution). They’ve definitely shrunk the gaps in bomber mode, compared to the Toynami. Again, the compact design of the Legioss is paying off now.
  3. I've been staring at that pic, wracking my brain on how that head and sternum transform. I'm thinking the cockpit flips up and into the back, and maybe the head and neck collar twist 180 degrees. But I can't figure where the chest/sternum cover is. Plus, you gotta factor how the back missile rack factors into all this. Would really love to see a clearer shot of the back to figure things out. I do hope there's enough room to add the shoulder missiles too. And I wonder if there's enough room in that cockpit to shove a pilot in there. So, late Fall 2022 release date? Or going into 2023? For those that were here back in the day, should I change my avatar until this gets released? For old times sake? 😅
  4. Hoo boy! Looks like I’m gonna have to get some red spray paint! It looks like the crotch rotates forward. But can’t figure out what’s going on with the chest and cockpit. The head area looks different between bomber and soldier mode. Maybe the whole assembly flips forward? Wanna see more pics of this puppy from various angles. EDIT: And in combined mode.
  5. A couple of acid dips into a Sarlacc pit are murder on the skin. Plus, that desert heat and dryness? And you know the Tuskens probably didn’t even waste their pee to wash that Sarlacc stank off Boba.
  6. I don’t think the poll has enough options. I’m perfectly fine with the general rule of thumb we’ve got going, where we spoiler tag certain comments until a “reasonable” period of time has passed. Sometimes discussions are ongoing in a thread, so to suddenly have to avoid a thread just because a new ep premiered is kinda annoying. Plus, real life events/circumstances might delay us from watching the new ep, so spoiler tagging stuff just seems like a nice common courtesy. Besides I like the creativity it forces me use. It’s easy to say you like or hate an episode or movie, but you don’t want to be that dick that spoils any big surprises.
  7. I suspect there’s more to that flashback than what we saw. Wouldn’t be surprised if Grogu already went a little dark side. There is precedent. However, I like what another person proposed instead: what if Luke is testing Grogu? To see if he has the proper balance regarding attachments? Like Grogu does miss Mando, but he knows that it’s important to continue his training. So, in the end Luke imparts a bit of wisdom AND let’s him keep the chainmail and the saber.
  8. That monster Tomcat would have been worthy of a Haslab, but Hasbro gonna Hasbro.
  9. I know it’s a ton of pages to go through, but there’s a bunch of good tips buried in this thread about transforming and handling the Legioss. Sentinel did take some novel approaches to improving the transformation and to compacting the fighter mode better than previous renditions.
  10. Wings on the Blitzway are too small (the angle in the above pic is skewing to hide that difference). Green looks too similar to Red and lacks that cylindrical look we’ve all grown accustomed to. And for some of us, additional leg covers, pilots, and light up features aren’t enough to justify a doubled price. Again, you can like what you like. But it’s just not my thing.
  11. That pic comparison makes me realize how small the stock main guns on the old TV 1/3000 are. I remember wanting to go after that massive 1/2000, but not at the old asking price and not for the DYRL version (always been partial to the TV version).
  12. What do you mean “Straighten your legs”? Let’s see your stance after riding a Blurrg for 3 days straight?! . . . I have spoken!
  13. Still not feeling some of the design choices made. But would be curious to see how posed out the lions and Voltron can get. Other than the leg covers and adding the pilots, the poseability (I’m guessing) is what will determine if this is worth the US$700 charge.
  14. Fennec Shand just gave you a scowl. 😜 I would have enjoyed this as a Mando ep, much more so than an “average” ep. Flashbacks to Mandalore’s Night of a 1000 Tears. A bunch of interesting cameos. Hot rodding and tons of callbacks to lore, including Mando lore (pun intended). But yeah, the way he handled that bounty and his associates/employees made me go, “That’s how Boba should be acting!”
  15. Is it bad that I enjoyed this ep so much more, and we had no Boba? As cool as the hot rodding was, I still want “him” to get another
  16. Well, that goes without saying! But what if you prefer his look from Mandalorian over his BOBF look? In any case, I would rather get Stormies with exploding armor (when it makes contact with a gaffi stick) than a couple of bucket heads. I’m mean, c’mon Hasbro, give me an “excuse” to justify the higher price.
