    So it looks like Spartan OP is just a new version of Fire Fight with unlimited lives and your score is based off of technique and number of deaths you've had on yourself. I played the first mission and scored a lot of medals bringing me up to nearly a lvl 4 and died 5 times. On a down side, you need almost 4 gigs of HDD space to get all the multiplayer crap installed on your Xbox. That drove me nuts as I had to either move and or delete a vast number of stuff I've downloaded and I do not have a large hard drive like the newer xboxs. That goes to show you I need to get a new one soon if these games continue to go this route.

    I picked it up dirt cheap today and I love the graphics and digging it even more on my 3D TV. On the downside I don't know about you guys but I did not get an instruction manual.

    I would say Hasbro were money grubbing fools to sell their company to Disney. I think it's just because Star Wars toy line is by Hasbro and they might want to acquire full rights to the franchise. To have complete control over things like Transformers could be disastrous.

    Because Starwars is a Hasbro property. They might really just be cornering the market for that line of the franchise. Hasbro would be fools to sell to Disney. But that's another topic entirely.

    It hasn't conflicted with TRON Legacy.....YET. We can rule out the comic book as working with the movie with different plot points and ending that contradicts the films flashbacks. TRON Evolution works in conjuncture very well showing the uprising of Clu and his followers leaving Flynn to wander the wastelands and the destruction of the ISO's. Following Evolution would be Uprising which has left in a really good point in the story. We know TRON lives, and we now know he didn't become Rinzler right after his downfall from Clu's revolution. So IF we do get one more season, this SHOULD follow up as to what will happen to TRON and if Beck runs away and hides or if he gets Derezzed.

    Absolutely are scalpers. I've seen ebay sellers where they've sold nearly 50 of what they had acquired. But worse off is just TRU's ability to meet demands. They're fully aware of the demand but they're just unable or unwilling to supply that. I've gone back and forth on how so many preorders were never fullfilled back on the oct 15th release date, and thus they're now saying November 5th. Maybe we outta all wear Optimus Prime helmets tomorrow?

    Yes, I got off very easy, but I still own ppl like Valk009 80 bucks for the resin recast of the VF-4, and I dunno if I can pay for that, I mean I'm scraping the barrel now just to pay the MP prime figure. I do agree, certain figures are very hard to come by, and I don't see why! Vehicons for instance I mean really? Vehicons? I understand they're cannon fodder for army stuff but come on! I would of thought Scourge would of been the same way, but nope, always saw him around and I own 3 of those. I think I saw airachnid once, ONCE and never again. I see FE prime figures like arcee and star scream frequently when I have stopped at a TRU store last month now. I even saw the Optimus megs 2 pack! But never saw a Vehicon or FE Bulkhead.

    Ya know, as someone who owns a TW Hegemon, I DO like their designs and their ability to make a nicely IDW esque accurate figure. But the price is just so high to me right now. I want to see what they'll release for future throttle bots before I even really consider buying one. It doesn't even need to be a gestalt either I'm happy with individual figures as long as they're being released fast enough. The craze over combiners is just insane right now. And as for TFC's Not superion, I don't even own hercules and I'm very happy with my original Energon/RotF Superion figures with their Fansproject upgrades. I'd much rather see a Technobots, Terrorcon and Protectobot figures right now than everyone else doing the same thing.

    been debating if I should just hold on to my Amazon order or not for G2 Bruticus and that's mainly because it's on free shipping! I have had one bitch of a time trying to get MP Optimus from TRU, rude employees, backordered/discontinued preorder ended up being canceled etc etc. I gave up and justified that the extra 65 dollars I just spent online to buy one is exactly what I'd of paid in gas to continue looking at the closest TRU store from me every week. I'm very dissapointed by how Hasbro and TRU have allocated their stock for that figure. On the other hand, I do want sideswipe, but right now he's kind of low on the list till I figure things out tomorrow.

    Well seeing how Yamato knows this is a well sought after variant, I don't think we'll see a cut off just yet. I doubt we'll run into a situation like Hasbro and MP Optimus.
  11. Hikuro
    if it's in March for a preorder then I'll be glad to do it. I got figures on my list but that's after everything I got is done. Namely the VF-4 and my TV.

    Okay now that looks better. But I gotta nit pick something here and that's scale. If I wanna land on the SDF-1 I wanna have a damn good scale perspective. Right now it feels way out of place landing on an ARMD platform that's only 2 times bigger than you and not about a hundred times bigger than you.

    HG has had many attempts at the revitalization of the franchise, Wildstorm comics, 2 video games, Shadow Chronicles to name a few, and look where it's gotten them? a Bankrupt partner known as ADV, the death of their founder, failed ideas, lack luster toy products, and now current CEO going to jail for the rest of his natural life which isn't much! I think, this is really just me thinking this out loud, but Karma is a bitch. And she took the ice cube trays when she left the HG house.

    when I heard the news this afternoon I was both excited and scared at the same time. Excited over the fact that not only do we get a continuation of the original conan films where we finally see him King, but the fact that frakin Arnie is going to return. But I'm also scared cause arnold is an old man and let's face it, political office didn't treat him well over the years and I think he's gotten to comfortable sittin on his butt. Because of this I broke my embargo on the new Conan film and watched it, while the opening was strong it tended to dip into sloppiness very quickly and that made me so sad. OOOOOOOHHHHHH well.

    Seems like nothing more than a PS3 version of the PSP titles, that's pretty lame. Hopefully those images are just the prototype and not what we'll actually get graphics wise cause those look horrible. Animated portions look nice, but the graphics are so PSone-ish.

    I will probably have to watch it a few times it already looks better than what we got in Ironman 2 and that shocks me. Something really nitty gritty and hard.
  17. Hikuro
    Yeah I just had to retime the 2.0 dub to the blu ray, wasn't to hard, have fun with it.

    I'd say both. If you look at the background display, it looks like the Quarter's schematic.

    Oh god pull that please. The guy who posted that stole that from me and has been a total dick about it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwJjrWhYv3g&feature=share&list=UUvYdjXAF9BCF6Z1kSGmFCOA this one is much better version of it, without the subtitle timing being terribly off.

    only one I've found was volume 1. Hadn't seen a volume 2 yet.
  21. Hikuro
    I'd be interested in pictures and go from there. It'll be a bit on the small side in my opinion, my guess less than 6 inches, maybe 5 for a true 1/72.
  22. Hikuro
    Not neccessarily. We don't even know what Earth actually looks like in Prometheus other than what we saw in Scotland. We did hear Dr Shaw tell the Engineer that the planet was in ruins and LA in Blade Runner was very over industrialized and gothic. So who knows exactly? I do say that's interesting of a tie in, but I'll just roll my eyes and plead ignorance of this tie in cause this is just something Ridely does. However, I AM very dissapointed that Ridely wont even consider a special release with all those 35 minute of deleted scenes inserted back in, god knows it really helped the film along more than what we were in the end given.

    Gotta agree, that Megatron was horrible. I think I actually threw that sucker in the trash but regret getting rid of my WWI Optimus most of all. In other news, I called it! MP-10B, Nemesis Prime coming in April

    Who knows, at 330 dollars just for this variant of the VF-4G, would you want to pay a lot more for the weathering effect? I wouldn't. Sadly for the VF-4, it only made an appearance in the first VFX game, not in VFX-2. So what we see now is pretty much it. I would like to see other variants of the VF-4 color scheme wise. But I don't want to see something outrageous. Maybe a Minmay deco would be the most crazy I'd like to see. But I'm not interested in a Max and Miriya scheme myself...that's the least likely I'd wanna buy.

    Caught that this morning and went with the later shipment preorder. I also realized that I had inserted foot into mouth because of this. A few months ago I told my girlfriend I would either drastically slow down or retire from toy collecting if I ever got the holy grail of Transformers, that be Fortress Max. Course back then I was thinking of original G1 with package 100% complete for the 800+ range. Well, beggers can't be choosers right? Either way I'm very excited to see they're finally going with this and I might even try to buy that Headrobot mold of Fort Max to really make it better.
