  1. It was odd. I mean I don't wanna say much and give anything away but I feel like after seeing the original series and movies way way back and then this 4 part film series...it's like Wayne's World to me. If anyone gets that.
  2. I'll always have a soft spot for the original figure line...which is probably why I still buy these things compared to other franchises that produce their own lineup of action figures. I use to have a really broad collection ranging from G1-G2 but my father decided it was time to throw them away and I lost the majority of everything I had collected since I was 4. Still, some figures survived once I caught on what he was doing and saved them. And over the last decade I've just been collecting the old figures whenever I can. But I've been mostly buying reissues and very seldomly originals due to their high markups.
  3. Ron Pearlman was not in Kingdom. Primal was voiced by Justin Luther.
  4. Wow I'm surprised no ones posted since Hathaway is out now on Netflix. Took me about two sittings to finally finish it. Sort of felt anticlimactic but that's cause I didn't realize this was gonna be a multipart film. English cast was good, I could of sworn Cristina Vee is playing Gigi but maybe I'm wrong?
  5. I guess, while I'm impressed with the quality of the restoration of the footage, my issue is on 2 fronts. 1) Please do not use the "updated" audio, or at least present the option of the original. 2) Why are we going Blu-ray when the format I'd much rather have would be 4K?
  6. It and the final Kenshin movie apparently are available so I binged Godzilla and just started watching Kenshin...and honestly I'm enjoying Kenshin more than Godzilla. I dunno maybe I'm just not that big of a Godzilla fan...sure I've seen a lot of the movies on TV when Scifi channel was worth a damn, but this series just didn't do it for me. I think it's the monster designs, when you're basing all your monsters on an ancient kind of japanese art style using CGI cel-shading techniques, it just doesn't look good but tacky and doesn't fit the rest of the animation style. There's also the science in this series that I had so much trouble trying to understand....it was just to much for me.
  7. Okay I finished it a bit ago.....I realllllly don't like those monster designs at all.....and felt this really took some liberties from Shin Godzilla. Would I say this was better than the trilogy series Netflix did? No.....not really.
  8. Personally I'm gettin tired of them rehashing the same characters again and again and again. If you're going to continue a line from Classics to I guess...WFC/ER/KD then make more characters. Don't just release Optimus, Soundwave and Megatron 3 or 4 different ways. 1) it confuses parents who buy these for their kids. 2) It ups the scalping ratio for the versions that fans want. I just would like to see a number of classic characters make their rounds....we really haven't gotten a proper Blaster, Brawn, Gears, Insecticons, gosh who else hasn't really shown up or gotten a good figure yet?
  9. Well I'm looking forward to the havoc trooper for sure.
  10. It wasn't bad. Wasn't to thrilled they re-wrote a particular character's back story, but I'll survive that, not the first time this has happened in the SW Universe. I wonder if Baker is getting a bonus for all those voice overs lol
  11. I mean it's pretty off track from BGC but in terms of ripping off other peoples music and not giving proper credit Fire Bomber's Power to the Dream is pretty much a rip of Power to the people by John Lennon....but I'm sure a lot of people know that.
  12. I felt it was trash. I was at hooked for those first 7 minutes and then whammy, lost interest with this Cole Young guy. Worthless character, even worse of a fighter, I mean without spoiling things he was just a worthless freaking character that even his one special character tie in as factor for the whole film made almost ZERO sense. As I sit and try to take in what this movie was suppose to be versus what it ended up being, I feel sort of ripped off. It had a ton of potential to be something cool but I felt like I was almost watching Annihilation again.
  13. I admit, I pretty much stopped playing any form of franchise since MK3 and the death of Arcade centers. And I lost a lot of respect for the genre when MK2 Annihilation was out. But that 7 minute teaser was nice, so I'll give it a shot this weekend.
  14. I’ve actually still got my thrilling rat trap and rhinos and no intentions to replace them with the kingdom line. In fact besides missing airazor and tigatron I pretty much got the maximal cast collected and I think they all look good together.
  15. ordered Galvy, Rodi & Scorpi. That's pretty much all I'm caring over. I liked my old Generations tracks so I'll be good there. Don't care for the Ark and I'm very satisfied with my old Generations Rhinox.
  16. I was able to go to Toy Dojo but I had a really hard time trying to gauge what was there and of course they don't price tag anything so I wasn't gonna be like grabbing every box and asking the price and working my way around on what I wanted lol. I did however manage to score MP Sunstreaker which was a must, and I grabbed Optus, they had a few of them left so I figured for sure. I actually really like him, I'm not sure where I'm gonna put him since he doesn't exactly fit into anything, but I thought he was really neat. I'm glad though he came with an extra pair of digits cause one of them was already missing when I was transforming him into bot mode so fixed that. Sad that I can't get him to revert back into vehicle form...his legs won't collapse and it has already gotten signs of stressing the plastic at the knees behind the leg. I'm not sure if I'm missing something or there's some kind of a trick cause you can see the tracks inside the legs where it should slide down in...but some reason when it starts to collapse it just stops like there's an obstruction in both legs.
  17. yeah it's toy dojo. Last time I was in there they had a few interesting things, I think some Fans Hobby stuff and some MMC's but it's been a month or two since I last went there....it's quite the drive. But this has given me some ideas on what to look for so I appreciate it.
  18. K....so this might be a tall order. Saturday I'm going out to a little toy shop in Austin that specializes in Transformers, but also namely in 3rd party goods. Is there anything I should take a particular look at getting? Most of my collection ranges in the generations-seige lineup, but I do dabble once in a bluemoon in MP like figures. Mainly looking for stuff that HasTak hasn't released character wise or even seem to be going in that direction.
  19. That to me is a hell of a lot sharper looking than what it was long ago seeing how they were SD sorta looking. I may end up just getting this just for the hell of it since I enjoy side scrollers, and I do like the new graphics.
