    Well, it is called a SHOCK trooper.

    Filoni and Favreau “get” Star Wars. The other two directors of the ST didn’t. Filoni somehow brilliantly made you appreciate The Phantom Menace for more than just the Maul v Obi and Qui-Gon duel.

    So, one size to scale with most Legiosses and another larger size to scale with the Rider Armors.

    Yeah, Mr. Robot was a good series too. Esmail was definitely copying some folks with his framing and the story beats. But it was done so freakin’ well. First season was one of the best things I had ever watched. Second season went to the same well one too many times. Third season got things back on track. And the fourth and final one finished strong. Knowing all the big reveals, I started to rewatch the whole series to see if there were nuggets hidden there the whole time.

    Oh, I get it. They just need to make sure they get the character right (like how they did Thrawn for Rebels). Of course, I’m also the salty curmudgeon whose “head canon” has Luke winding up with a redhead, there being a Ben SKYWALKER instead of a Ben Solo, and Imperial Knights that go full-on Jamie Lannister on an Emperor who strays too far down the Dark Side.

    @Saburo, is it necessarily Macross related? If it is, one of the few things that is that honking huge is the Yammy Stealth set.

    Just don’t mess with KOTOR too much (the games or the comics). Lot of good concepts and characters from that time period.

    Regarding Tenet, But it’s a crazy concept that must have been bonkers to film.

    I can understand why some folks would be miffed or pissed about this retcon. Instead of happening during a nice quiet moment of rest, Kanan’s Order 66 moment now happens in the middle of a battle (technically, a lull in one, but still). Just like the majority of the Order 66 scenes we’ve seen already. I get why they did it here in Bad Batch, but it’s still kind of a bummer. I’m still attached to a lot of the events that happened at the end of Tartakovsky’s Clone Wars, but it’s kinda hard to tie all that with what’s been shown in Filoni’s last eps of Clone Wars. Wasn’t the first, certainly won’t be the last, and definitely not the worst retcon we’ve seen in Star Wars.

    Second episode is already out. Serviceable ep.

    Promising start. Kinda tripped me up that Omega's Still not feeling Echo's armor, and he still seems redundant with Tech there. Is he supposed to be the team's defacto droid? Also, I was hoping the credits would list Dee Bradley Baker's name multiple times instead of the one credit line he got! Lastly, I guess Anakin was successful in getting that Padme noseart removed on the Batch's ship. EDIT:

    Whats next for Arcadia?

    What’s interesting is Max’s 1A doesn’t have that stripe at all on his legs. In regards to Milia’s 1J, I suspect the Yamato folks played it safe and smart and didn’t get too crazy with the accent colors. They went with gray for the leg stripe and white for the leg circles, the backpack circle, and the forearm triangle. Again, it’s a tricky balance when red is the main color.

    Well it does have one busted shoulder, but I guess that’s par for these toys after all these years! Moggy’s not holding a grudge about getting a SDF-1 with busted shoulders!

    Honestly, I just didn’t feel like searching for every single thread for each movie mentioned (or creating new threads for the new movies announced). I went the lazy route. Regarding the tie-ins, it was pretty nuts how they were able to perfectly time the release of the old Winter Soldier movie with the story unfolding in Agents of SHIELD way back when. In theory, it should be easier to tie the streaming shows with the films, since they don’t have to worry about timing it with network TV schedules now.

    Mog replied to w8kbrder's topic in Toys

    As I said in an earlier post, it’s rare to find a red with blue trim scheme that works well. The bike looks good, since the blue trim is being used to accent just a few key spots. But you know red is the main color. If the mix proportions are off or if you add too much of another color, things can get really ugly really fast. . . as in the case of our VF-22 and its Jetfire nose cone mated to Thundercracker’s wings. It’s interesting to note that the 1/48 1J Max has a small red accent on its legs. But the 1/48 Milia opted for grey (instead of blue) for that same accent spot.

    Of all the color-schemes to place on a 22. Red and blue schemes just don't mix. Pick one or the other.

    I actually have that pic on my DVD box set of Macross. I thought it was a cool pic before, but now I can't unsee how odd the proportions are. Thought maybe the pic on the box set was stretched out or had better proportions. . . . nope. Oh well, guess I'll keep displaying the Hik' and Misa side of the box instead.

    Thanks, Shawn! No worries, it’s not like you told us that All things considered, it was a pretty smooth change-over.

    May not be the most accurate thread to put this in, but they’ll probably push the + “premium” option. So, I’m using that technicality. Sizzle reel, titles, and release dates for Marvel’s next slate of movies:

    Looks like we lost the spoiler option on both the laptop and mobile/cell phone versions of the board. But no issues with photos: Either as attachments from our computers or devices: Or from our personal MW galleries or old attachments: And slurmty frakks crap-heads. . . censors are working.

    EDIT: Re-posting on the correct thread.

    Other than the lack of the 2-seater variants, Yammie’s 1/48 line wasn’t too shabby. I’m just surprised we didn’t see as many customs with the Version 2.0 Yamacadia 1/60’s. I suspect the economy at the time and the sticker/decal aftermarket drying up had a hand in that. Back on topic, I do handle these Valks with kid gloves (after slightly wearing out a few stickers on my custom). But it’s still impressive how clear and well these Anasazi stickers have held up through the years: Along with all the trouble I went through to panel-line these two.
  23. Mog
    I see it now. Just got distracted by all the purty GBP variants in that post’s first pics.
  24. Mog
    And here I thought I covered all my bases getting all the 1/48 VF-1 head variants. Didn’t know about those differences in the TV and DYRL 1A heads. Guess I should look for a Low Viz now! j/k
  25. Mog
    Very nice custom. Didn’t notice it at first, but I like the subtle bird silhouette on the nose.
