Macross Δ (Delta) Mecha/Technology Thread - READ 1st POST
JB0 replied to azrael's topic in Movies and TV Series
That almost makes me want to try and watch that show again. Almost. -
Man, Hayate and Mirage have already formed a combat pair. Freyja should just bow out now, because she can't win against wingmates even if her fold waves DO make him resonate.

Hayate should have an arrow pointing off him towards the clear blue sky. Because let's be honest here, his only feelings are for the wind(he is clearly part windemerian).

Fold bacteria originate out of Frontier, if I'm not mistaken. Laser makeup has roots in DYRL, I think.

Bandai Gobots/Machine Robo Series Toy Thread
JB0 replied to David Hingtgen's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
That is pretty cool. I wish Screwhead R. Drilltank was "shinier", like the G1 toy. Glossy paint and a metallized drillhead. I also like the bigger teeth on the original drillhead. But other than that... there's nothing I see really wrong with him aside from size. -
I love the titles. "Creator" "Artist" "VP of marketing" One of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn't belong. Can you guess which thing is not like the other by the time I- it's the marketing guy that has no creative efforts to show. Tommy Yune is still with HG after the Kickstarter fiasco, right? Put his butt in the chair. He may've been BAD at creative endeavors, but he at least HAD some.

The gold karat is closely related to the gemstone carat. It represents how many carats(with a c) of gold would be in a chunk of this alloy of a given size. The size, as it happens, is that of a german gold coin that was in use a millennium ago. That weighed 24 carats. And it was common enough at the time that it became a standard unit of measure for gold. And in an attempt to be on-topic: I keep calling Hayate "Alto". I don't really know why. -

Star Trek Beyond (the not The Search for Spock)
JB0 replied to areaseven's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Well, the thing that stuck with me most was he was adamant that it was an original movie and not an Alien tie-in. And then when it came out it was not just a blatant Alien tie-in, but the MOST blatant Alien tie-in possible. My understanding is that Ridley Scott is not, generally, a bald-faced liar. That more than anything is what makes me think the studio deserves blame.- 466 replies

Prometheus, I suspect, saw a lot of studio meddling. It would not be the first time Fox completely crapped up an Alien movie by handing to a committee much of the authority that ought be vested in the director.- 466 replies

Gotta remember, mainstream Nintendo characters are reaching a MUCH wider market than the typical Figma release. I'm not saying the rest of the line is bad or anything, just that Nintendo has a global mainstream appeal that most of their other releases lack.

The Unlicensed Third Party Transformers Thread

Sounds like a good reason to get the tools and widen the hole a tad. 'S an easy fix, though whether it should be necessary at that price point is another issue. So true. So very true.- 9268 replies

I like that a lot. I like it enough to lay off on the "Dr. Chiba is Lady M" theory. Briefly, at least.

Don't be silly. Macek was a writer, he didn't do mechanical designs. There's no reason not to give a shoutout to the designer of Robotech's most enduring veritech.

In fairness, they DO put pilots in the most heavily-armored part of the machine instead of sitting with their face against a glass bubble.

I just reviewed it, and there's definitely a laser striking the red panel I believe to be the cockpit door and scything up across it.

In fairness, EVERY song in Seven at this point was a solo.... and I think this is about the point in Seven where I was just starting to get a little tired of Planet Dance and wondering if Basara had a second song. But yeah, I don't really care for Walkure's singing. I would be happier with a wall of Mikumo solos.

Because Team Fortress with anime characters is better than Team Fortress without anime characters. I'm skipping it. I love the game's visual style, but I'm a solo gamer. Deathmatch is the least interesting part of a FPS, and a game that is ONLY deathmatch is an automatic no-buy.
