Well, launching it into space may reduce the impact of gravity, but we would be increasing the outside temperature variations on the hypothetical container. Plus, there's all that radiation we have to deal with if we launch it too far out of Earth's magnetic bubble. That's assuming the plastic (and other toy materials) can survive the temperature drop to absolute zero. That's why I said to keep the inside of the container at a constant 20 degrees Celsius (basically cool room temperature). So, should we go with a full hazmat suit before we put the toys in the container (to prevent any outside contaminants from interacting with the toys)? Or will wearing museum curator level gloves and holding our breath be sufficient to minimize the impact of any contaminants and that pesky oxygen?

So basically we should store our toys in a lead-shielded container that actively sucks out all oxygen and other gases within the container, allows 0.000000000001 percent outside ambient light to seep into the container, while maintaining a constant 20 degrees Celsius temperature, preferably in a location that minimizes the impact of the outside atmosphere, air pressure, background radiation, and gravity.

Based on what we’re seeing in the trailer, this would be a nice film to watch in IMAX.

There’s just so many factors that could cause the yellowing. Even if it’s inside a box that allows no light in, the toy could still yellow. As I mentioned in the other thread, I had a 1/48 Yammie TV Max 1A stored in its box. The white parts didn’t yellow but the blue parts “yellowed” into teal. I’m pretty certain the tealing was due to the temperature variations where I stored it. The other factor could be the height of the shelf you stored it at. Even if the temperature doesn’t feel too warm in the room overall, it could actually be much warmer the closer your shelf is to the ceiling. Of course, things you can’t control, such as the air in the room or the chemical composition or manufacturing of the plastic itself, could be the cause of the yellowing.

It’s been so long that I had to read a synopsis for the last ep. But Hank was out wandering the streets in his Batman mask. It was revealed that Rusty and The Monarch are related. BUT. . . * Rusty doesn’t know he’s a clone. * We still don’t know who the twins’ mom is exactly. * That whole love triangle between the twins hasn’t been resolved. * We don’t know who or what caused Blue Morpho’s plane accident. * It hasn’t been confirmed who exactly caused Dr. Jonas Venture’s death on the space station. So, still a ton of dangling plots left to resolve. I’d like some other streaming service to pick up the show. But if that doesn’t pan out, they should do a “made on the cheap” episode; have Rusty walk off-screen; the scene stays the same throughout the remainder of the ep; but we hear the characters off-screen talking and tying up all the loose ends. Probably also taking shots at Cartoon Network as they explain what Season 8 would have revealed or showed.

That bloody sucks. Even with the billion year-long hiatuses between seasons, it was always a fun show to watch. Kinda hope they do a low budget ending ep, where Rusty screams, “THAT’S IT!?” and then spends the rest of the “ep” off-camera, explaining where everyone winds up and explains all the dangling plot-lines/mysteries. Bitterly ironic that a show about failure ends by being cancelled.

Bane was ahead of his time. * Wore a mask everywhere he went; * Was in peak physical health to improve his compromised immunity; * Encouraged social distancing by quarantining Gotham from the rest of the world; and * Redistributed the wealth of that spoiled little rich boy, Bruce Wayne.

There's other songs from this performance (Musiqueplus 1998), but the sound quality of those other Youtube posts aren't as good.

RIP Chadwick Boseman (Black Panther)
Mog replied to 505thAirborne's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I think the mods do this with most RIP threads. They give them about a week before they close them down. Just standard policy. Nothing more. Personally, I really hope they don’t recast T’Challa and have an existing character take up the Black Panther mantle instead. EDIT: @kajnrig beat me to the punch. -
RIP Chadwick Boseman (Black Panther)
Mog replied to 505thAirborne's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I'll be honest: I originally remember Killmonger's final speeches more, leaving the theater. But upon watching the ending scenes of Black Panther again, I found this final speech from Boseman to still be very relevant today: And on a different note, raisins have no place in savory dishes! -
It's been awhile since I posed the 1/48 Yammie 1S in battroid, but don't the head lasers spread out into more of a "V" the further back you angle them? Meaning when pointed forward or in fighter mode, the left and right head lasers are all pointing in the same direction. But when in battroid mode and pointed backwards, the right set is no longer pointing in the same direction as the left set of lasers (Hence, the "V"). It's subtle, but it's definitely there. All this to say, there's nothing wrong with pointing the lasers forward or straight up. But the default "The Way the Good Lord Intended" look is canted back, because of the kewl , swept-back, V look.

Crazy Macross Designs I want to see Built
Mog replied to slaginpit's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I'm more than ready for the Valk designs to move on from the whole "long, spindly legs with wings making up a huge folded backpack" look that Macross has been stuck on since Frontier. It was cool when it first showed up in Frontier, but it's more than ran its course. Time for an evolutionary design change. -
