i agree on bringing back the Xwing series of games. They were SO much fun Republic Commando was the last good Star Wars game (That came out after KOTOR2 right?). before that, shootwer wise, I liked the Jedi Academy series. Dark Forces, DF2, jedi Outcast, Jedi Academy....all awesome. KOTOR and KOTOR 2 also kicked ass. So i say bring this one on! Looks good, looks fun! Ill play it!

Transformers Super Thread 5
Scream Man replied to David Hingtgen's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
ive scored Arcee (Who is kinda cool, and especially good for a Bike Transformer) but cant find the new Bumblebee anywhere. Its one of the few movie figures Im going to buy as well..... -
How do u mean not hobled in fighter? i just hope the new os has tighter arms so i can pose it better.
-
u co8ld always get it and just not transform it if u are worried. i have to confess im toying (ha) with getting a Shin Zero and a Focker zero with ghost when it comes out. The thing is i already have 2 of each type (S and A) already. i dunno if forking out $300 aussie on 2 places ive pretty much got twice already is a good idea.
-
oh wow, Battroid looks awesome as well....
-
in fact with the Nora 51 as well, u could have an awesome battle display
-
ok kids, heres a question: The military garland is out....How are the shoulders on it?
-
i cant wait to see the movie again. And i didnt mind the movie desigbns either. Even Primes exposed mouth didnt bother me.

Recently purchased 1/60 YF-19 with fold booster A few QC problems
Scream Man replied to SuperHobo's topic in Toys
My complaint of late has been not the warnings, its those that havent got the toy or who see uppcoming stuff and assume it will be crap. I forget who it was who had their 19's arm break in the middle somewhere, but it wasnt long ago. he posted sayign he had a new problem for us all: The arm broke off! the next STACK of posts were all "Og god, a new QC nightmare for all the 19's!" Which isnt true! It was a one off, an Isolated incident. When i forst got Colossus from marv el Legends, his hand twisted off at the wrist. i sent itback, got another and the new one has been fine since. i dont count how many times ive swivelled the wrist. i didnt hit Fwooshnet and start talkign about how all Colossus's would have weak wrists. now Yamato, to me, has had to major MAJOR QC issues in its toys; The shoulders on the Zeros, and the Shoulders on the Garland. The Garland Shoulders, I dont know anyone who had one and transformed it who DIDN'T have the shoulders break on them. the Zeros, its probably like 90% or so with the shoulders. these are seriou concerns and should be addressed by Yamato (And were on the Garland) and people should know whats going to happen to these toys before they buy them. Thats crap. Mowe got his new Shin type and offered a warning. Psychodynamix got his Zeros recently and expressed disappointment and a warning. There are countless others. hell, all 4 of mine have weak shoulder problems, and look hard enough and u will find the thread about what happened to my first zero A right out of the box. these are warnings. And u have done a few of those as well. but in between u just like to try and find people enjoying their toys, or enjoying upcoming stuff and slam them down. New pics of the 51 get released, and people are all talkin about how cool it is. What did you say? Really? The Zeros have shoulder problems? i hadn't heard! Really, what did this accomplish? Did you really think people who frequent here havent heard about the problems? that maybe we missed it? And even assuming you wanted to deliver a warning in case someone saw the pics and decided to pre-order not knowing about the zeros QC problem, why go about it in a snarky way? In the past when I and otehrs have said things like this, u usually respond with somethign about not having to change how you write, or having every right to post hre, and that's all true. You CAN say what you like, and post where you like. None of us can stop you. this post won't stop you either, and you will put me down as another yamato suck up or fanboy or drone or whatever you want to label me as. That's fine. but sooner or later this place will change and people will stop coming as much. How many times can we all look at threads about how poo the toys we purchased are? How many people really want to spend their leisure time, not discussing the toys they love, but the toys they hate. teh mistakes they made over and over aagin. it'd be like going to an ex girlfriends to watch her have sex with the guy she dumped you for; Sure, u could if u like, but what does it gain you? the neckpiece on the 19 broke omn some peoples toys. On some there were stress marks. id say that at THE VERY MOST, 50% of the people who bought em had that. I think thats being generous. e all had the wonky gunpod; that sucked. The loose shoulder flaps and wheels also were mistakes, and near as i know on every 19 this was a problem. Some fixed it, some ignored it. Most just moved on. the new 19 seems to have fixed the wheels, Shoulder flaps and gunpod issues. the neck seems to still affect some toys, but not all. those are the facts as i have read them. lets just post that as a sticky somewhere, along with the thing about the zeros shoulders and move the hell on! Really, what are we waiting for? Has anyone even seen Graham in awhile? I seem to remember he was going to do some reviews, unless i missed a message somewhere that never happeend! I know i read a message awhile ago where he stated openly that the toy forums were no fun anymore....maybe he's just sick of nothing but complaints. i know i am. Long rant i know, and I'm sorry. But i have loved these damn jet toys since I first got a jetfire, and i sure as hell love the ones i have. ive had lows with them, but thnen ive had lows with other toylines as well. But you know what? At the end of the day i still collect these things, and until I have kids or something equally as dramatic happens, I'll keep getting them. ive nearly got all the 48's i want, im gonna grab a Fp 19 and its getting harder to say no to the 51. And then I'm going to come here to talk about how cool my stuff is and show some pictures. What about you? what are you here for? -
not bad. Tempting to get it and th shin one if for no other reason than a cool display piece in fighter mode....

Recently purchased 1/60 YF-19 with fold booster A few QC problems
Scream Man replied to SuperHobo's topic in Toys
I couldnt even tell u how many times my 19 has been transformed without any major hassles. i have a loose wing coz i mistransformed over the leg bump to many times. i rarely have my tpy upside down, so I dont even care about the chest. The 0 arm problem was a problem. the 19 hinge, and the panic occouring over the FB version are just symptomatic of the attitudes here right now. i remember when buying macross toys was fun to share with others. -
Sagitarius, Leo, Socrpio, Libra and Aquarius PM me with details.

i started colelcting March 26th. thats just over three months ago. As of yesterdays arrivals (Mu, Geki, Nachi) I have 21 figures and one Appendix. it works out i have bought basically one a week. Its not quite that, but close enough. Obcessed? me? Anyway Geki is cool. he reminds me of a big russian footsoldier of some kind. nachi is just boring, offering nothing new in armour or character. And while Mu isnt bad, his hair design sticks his head prettyy much in place, and the ram head on the back comes off pretty easily. Still cool though Next up: More gold saints!

Sigfreid?
-
Sigh? Base don the fact nothing has changed? I never did hear what Grahms sources at Yamato had to say on this...
-
Nice. They look good. Did u get similar ones for the gold saints?

-
I had my old jetfire break....
-
that looks pretty sweet! How do u make em? As for Surplice capes, I think they had a cloak that went all the way over them, but thats about it from what I remember.
-
I'm Sorry your arm broke dude, but do u think that swinging the wagins into another circle here is really called for? ONE YF-19 arm has broken. one. thats not an episdemic, its an accident. It happens! I have collected toys of all different kinds for a long time, and they sometime sjust break! They just do! It sucks, but it happens.
-
Did the Surplice have capes?
-
Sweet pics man! IOve been trying to decide if i want him or not.... Its the hait that stops me..
