  1. More pics of the 501st ARCs: http://rebelscum.com/2020/The-Vintage-Collection-501st-Legion-Arc-Troopers/ Will be available from Hasbro Pulse in September.
  2. About time they gave them their due. Now if we could just get a Pong Krell figure made.
  3. All you have to do is look at the Star Wars 6" line and see how few vehicle releases they've had over the years in that scale. In regards to the 3.75' scale vehicles, I think our best bet is for HasLab to pull off something. It'd be bonkers if they did a full, mocked-up USS Flagg. But a Night Raven updated to fit the 25th line and a few other improvements would be something feasible.
  4. Thanks! I remember cutting a few of those smaller stickers for a tighter and flatter fit. The leg art was also tricky, trying to cut the Macross Kite sticker to match the flow of Minmay's dress on the @Anasazi37 sticker. Just wish the old Yammie stickers weren't so gauzy and hazy looking. Very nice and subtle dirt wash on both of those GBP's!
  5. Yeah, Stick never left anything to chance the way he fired off missiles. He was shootin’ ‘em like he needed to get rid of a surplus.
  6. It’s been awhile, but I always thought the Inbit came to fix up Earth. They fixed up the atmosphere, causing it to be much thicker than the Mars Base fleet anticipated (which is why most of them burned up).
  7. HERETICS!! All of you! So, is there any conventions or toy expos/shows coming up where Sentinel could POTENTIALLY show off a colored prototype of Houquet and the Bartley?
  8. When Hasbro gives you a Baroness with the silver trim out of alignment, you modify her and make her defect to the Iron Grenadiers:
  9. I don’t miss the 100 references to Admiral Rick Hunter from the Robotech dub. Plus, the music’s not that bad in Mospeada:
  10. Don’t forget they have to fit in Houquet’s ride armor in that schedule.
  11. Yeah, I already doubled up on the blue Toynami Alpha-Beta combo. So, I’ve been eyeballing the Sentinel Zeta for a while now. The redesigned gun is just icing for the eventual purchase.
  12. Glad to see my prediction was inaccurate. Hasbro should have shown more pics of that Cobra throne instead of the figure itself.
  13. Rau Gar Saxon in Maul-Mando armor looks a little chunky. So, I take it these are 6” scale, not 3.75”?
  14. I helped a hunter kill a “dinosaur” using some bombs, and then used a pearl from the dino’s innards to enhance my character’s lightsaber. Obscure KOTOR references, baby!
  15. Big if on the above rumor. Pretty sure I speculated about this in another thread. But IF we next hear a rumor about some male actor being cast for a key “unspecified role” in the Obi series, then that would add fuel to the speculation that the series will cover the interactions between:
  16. I’d rather say my head canon ending is moving forward with The Mandalorian and/or Sabine and Ahsoka the White going off to search for Ezra. EDIT: @jvmacross, I’ll raise you a Krayt Dragon.
  17. Didn’t we kinda get that already with the dewbacks (in IV) and the blurrgs (in The Mandalorian)?
  18. What exactly did they fix in the re-issue though? i honestly don’t recall any major differences between the two releases.
  19. It slowly becomes easier to save up when the toy/collector lines you were once into stop making things you like, keep releasing rehashes of the same damn characters, and/or switch to another scale size. Plus, practical concerns like shrinking display space and life, wife, and family responsibilities slow down the collecting itch. So when someone comes out with something truly awesome, somewhat rare or more “niche,” and has a good chance of getting somewhat “complete” (like Sentinel’s Mospeada stuff), you can go after it.
  20. A little late in “discovering” this, but really dig the guitar hook: Pretty much a spiritual sequel/successor to Nujabes’ Lady Brown.
  21. Everyone knows a Trek fan will re-route power from the Secondary EPS Manifold to bypass the subspace interference, and use a thermocoupler to enhance the signal, and then use the additional subspace bandwidth from the main deflector array to enhance the noise reduction function not readily available in a Level 4 diagnostic. Non-techno-babble explanation: a Trek fan will just borrow the password of a friend or family member.
  22. I'd be curious if they executed Order 66. But other than Echo and probably the squad leader, the characters themselves are kinda one-note. Has potential, but we'll see.
  23. Custom GI Joe Motor Viper:
  24. If I was to prioritize the changes/improvements to any potential Tread: 1). Good-looking, solid, LOCKING connection between the Legioss and Tread. If I wanna pose the combo mid-Immelmann turn, I wanna know it will hold firm. 2). Transformation process that keeps an appropriately sized cockpit AND the correct looking chest/sternum for Armo-soldier. Would like to be able to have a same-size pilot in there too, but not a requirement (to have a removable pilot). 3). No gaps or minimal gaps in bomber mode, especially in the underside behind the cockpit. 4). Retractable missile racks on the TOPS of the shoulders. 5). Gatling gun. Don’t care if it’s canon or not. The gun would fit the Tread’s burly look. 6). Missiles to attach to RECESSED hard points on the wings. 7). Pivots in the front “toes,” to help with an A stance. And it goes without saying, keep ratchet joints all over this puppy!
