There is only one BEST STARFIGHTER DESIGN... EVER: (trumpets) Lockheed F-104 STARFIGHTER Regds, Gorgon, the Joker... (p.d.: I can't believe nobody as come out with this silly joke yet...) (p.d.2: check the link, the coloring of this particular 104, with the "ripped" skin is GREAT) That "ripped" paintjob is great.

Huh? Where and who? It was a little prank Adult Swim pulled as their April Fool's joke and has absolutely nothing to do with Gundam SEED. Wait....OMGWTF?! CN did ANOTHER Aprils Fools joke again?!@?!@!! How dare they!!!!! My poor Inyuasha had an ugly muustasch!!!! Honestly, some of the people in this thread are beyond belief... The Big O joke after they put the wrong episode a few months back was funny though. Made you think they were going to do it again. At least they have a sense of humor over there.

I have one. I may eventually get a Hasbro too (why not for 60 bucks), but I like the Takara so much better. The shortened smokestacks of the Hasbro look like crap. I am buying the Hasbro Alternators though over the Binaltechs. 20 bucks each is perfect there, and no paint chipping.

As for the content of Gundam Seed, I actually enjoyed the show quite well. Some parts dragged early on, forcing a rush later on, but overall wasn't bad. Especially for a show designed to be a new branch off point. A pretty good cast as well. Much more better than Wing's character batch IMO. Huh? Where and who?

Latitude: 39° 10' 46" Longitude: -77° 12' 40" Let's see how large our cells get.

That's the thing, without the excessive commercials, it wouldn't have been that bad at all. That's the big disappointment there is the breaks in any tension the episode had. It's a shame. Doing that later would be even worse. In retrospect, I thought some of the sound effects sounded wierd. They did change some sounds around. A strange edit. Maybe an attempt to tone down the violence level? I was surprized they showed stuff like the Zaft guy throwing a grenade in the trailer and stuff like that, so any other edits are more wierd. Overall not bad for Toonami treatment. Maybe it will come to adult swim later uncut.

Many shows have their animal mascot. Eva has the warm-water penguin Pen-Pen. Love Hina has the flying turtle Tama. Ai Yori Aoshi has the ferret Oyama (something like that). Trigun has the black cat. Cowboy Bebop has Ein. Excel Saga has Menchi.

Does anyone know why the hell they do that? To fit in more commercials. Glad I picked up the HK set last year though, don't think I'd be able to sit through the series as it is on CN. The excessive commercials really killed it, especially since Toonami/Adult Swim always use just the one in the middle. This was just ridiculous and killed the pacing of the show with the poorly timed excessive commercial breaks. A really bad decision on CN's part to do this to the show. AND they also wasted time with the Toonami CG crap EVERY break too. These breaks alone may make me stop watching it, and I doubt they will stop doing it as the show goes on, so they can squeeze every commercial they can out of it. CN is not doing right by Gundam Seed so far. Once a week, and the commercials to boot. The dub at least seems workable right now, and may prove good later, but it's surprizing that's not my primary concern about CN's release. If the ratings tank, they need to look long and hard at why and wake up. The merchandise is also being released in a wierd order. They have a few of the cheaper $5 (crappy) 1/144 kits in the stores, but as far as the real HG 1/144's it's just the Freedom and Justice listed for now. Why wouldn't they start with the original 5? Doesn't make sense. At one episode a week, it will be 7 months until the Freedom shows up. I was happy to pick up the Freedom at Target for 17 bucks, but it's still wierd. Also, the model's box talks about the N-Jammer canceller, a spoiler. So far Seed's US treatment is leaving a sour taste in my mouth. I figured it would be turned into a cash cow, but not this bad. Gundam really gets the short end of the stick in the US.

The part inside the Church is all in Black and White. Couple of flashbacks too.

Wow, they actually let Benoit keep the title?!? Sweet. Wonder how long HHH will go without the belt. Within the next PPV or two I guess, but it's cool at least they didn't give it back to him right away. I do have to say other than that the results were no huge surprize really. BTW, where's Undertaker been lately? Are they waiting for his hair to grow again or what?

I just want my CF now.

I have always loved the Tie Interceptor and the Tie Advanced. The best as far as general starfighters go. Never liked any of the Rebel/New Republic fighters very much. Especially hated the Naboo fighter and the A-wing. The Tie Defender and the Assault Gunboat also kicked major ass, though the Interceptor/Advanced are my personal favorites. The Imperials just had the better designs. Period. I liked the Star Furies in Babylon 5. The new version that appeared later was also cool. The Legoiss in Mospeada is also a favorite, though the Tread never did as much for me. I also really liked the Hellcat, the Dralthi (Kilrathi fighter), and the Vampire from Wing Commander. The movie designs were god awful, and ruined the movie. If it was hellcats and a real tiger claw it would have been better. Darth Vader's fighter was a Tie Advanced prototype (X1?). The Real Tie Advanced was a large evolution over that with real shields, hyperdrive, points on the wings with the lasers, and just a sleek bad ass looking design. The Tie Defender took it up another notch with the 3rd panel array and added 2 ion cannons on addition to the quad lasers. The Assault Gunboat, made by the guys that did the Lamba Shuttle, was also a favorite of mine with it's multiple winged design. Realy nice looking.

I do have to agree on the Mexican pimp part though. That could have been left out. What was Michael Jai White supposed to do in there?

Saw it tonight. I loved it. I liked Bill was telling Budd "You hocked....a Hottori Hanzo sword" also how he explained the Crazy 88 "wasn't really 88 guys she went through" "Why crazy 88 then" "maybe they thought it sounded cool" good stuff. I had a feeling the exploding heart technique would have some further mention later after Bills campfire story. Should have guessed what though. I got the Superman analogy fine. He was just trying to see wether Bride really though she could pull off being Ms. Mom working at the record store. "You... overreacted?!?" I loved it. Tarantino outdid himself with Kill Bill. The quality of fights in Vol. 1 was better than 2 in my book but it's true that wasn't that main focus this time. Bill's performance was very good though. He was a bastard, but he was a cool bastard at the same time. Anyone else notice, as they were doing the cast in the end credits, thecrazy 88 fight was in color, except for a piece with Johnny against the Bride. I also liked how they introduced her name. After it finally got out without being bleeped, it went to a grade school class with the teacher calling the name and then showed Uma at one of the small desks wearing pigtails raising her hand. Funny.

Well judging from the first episode, Seed's dub seems like a mixed bag so far. Not horrible but could be better. Kira sounds ok so far (wait until he cries), so does Cagalli, Yzak, and a couple others. Fllay stinks on early impression. We'll see once she gets evil. Rau sucks. Mwu I'm not sure yet, but not surprizing that he doesn't sound anywhere as cool as his Japanese counterpart. First episode impression wasn't stellar, but not too ear grating. They pronounced Tolle "Tall" The other names seemed pronounced pretty well so far. The preview was moved to before the end credits, and then the credits had the usual Toonami/Saturday practice of mixing footage from the intro into the end credits, which were also vastly shortened. The far greater evil than anything the dub could have done were the damn commercial breaks. Totally ignoring Toonami and Adult Swim canon, they didn't do the one commercial break in the middle but instead had to have done 4 breaks throughout the show. I kid you not. It was ridiculous. I'll give it a few more episodes to make final judgement of the dub. I'm anxious to see how Lacus does. The DVD's I will buy though will obviously be viewed in subtitled mode only regardless.

If anything the horses should be able to transform into GBP-like armor for the horsemen. Seriously though, I had no idea they did that kind of wierd angle. Kind of crappy actually.

There are some problems with bringing Sting in: 1. He's currently under contract with NWA-TNA. 2. He says he's a born-again Christian and believes WWE is smut. What does that make resident Christians Shawn Michaels and Molly Holly? 3. Will the WWE crowd really accept him, especially since he's never stepped foot on a WWE ring in his 20+ years in the business? Actually I was joking But it is good to know what actually happened to him.

Time to bring Sting back.

Hopefully the liscence expired and someone else can release it soon. As long as it's not in manga vault limbo.

Downloaded the defiler pack and the zoom player. Damn. Quick, stable, and minimalistic. Awesome. Now to add real and quicktime alternatives, so I only need the one program for videos. I still like winamp for MP3's though.

Further proof that Mangle sucks.

You're lucky to have uniformed Misa. That's the one I really want.

You can do either, whatever you think looks better.

No I refuse to accept that. The 19 project is not dead, some day it will come believe me it will come one day and then it will be sweet and all will be right with the world and I will buy two of them one for fighter and one for battroid and then I can wait patiently for the VF-4 even though I do doubt that will ever come but back to the 19 it can't be dead they are just focused on cashing in on macross zero for whatever reason or maybe after the 1/100 vf-0's are done yamato will surprize all fo us with 1/60 m+ valks and make a fortune but even if its still 1/72 i'll be happy if they don't release it though i will be at their doorstep with a pan-dimensional hammer and purify the place

Sick bastard Seriously though, The black display stand has the metal rod that the figure came with, and there is a white arm taped under the display stand that attaches on the metal bar. Then support the figure against the bar/white arm. Good to go. Just watch the figure balance and she shouldn't go anywhere. Kind of like one of the CM figures.
