  1. I will Sonic Boom your face if you don't take that back!
  2. And here's what my dream Soundwave player would've done... I know this wasn't really workable for budgetary reasons(Takara doesn't make electronics, so they had to buy someone else's MP3 player), but I would've compromised functionality myself, not by using a crappy barely-functional chinese player chip, but by using larger and more expensive CompactFlash cards instead of the ubiquitous SD format(and definitely not the decidedly NON-ubiquitous MiniSD form factor).. The reason I'd do this is because CF cards are JUST big enough that he could come with non-functional "dummy" cards that both fit his chest cavity and actually transformed into the tape-bots. No crappy Frenzy&Rumble headphones here!
  3. Oh cripes, it doesn't even do SDHC? What was Takara THINKING? They could've made an amazing product, instead they apparently grabbed the cheapest, junkiest MP3 player they could find out of China to implant in the poor guy. He cost way too much to be treated like a cheap novelty toy.
  4. I think Christmas is when they're supposed to clarify if it's Macross Delta or Macross Triangle, or something sillier.
  5. Seriously, MiniSD? The HELL? Best bet is get a MicroSD-MiniSD adapter. Best bet for THAT is to find a MicroSD card that comes with a full set of adapters. Because that's seriously the only place I've ever seen MiniSD in any form.
  6. Sonic CD is the best Sonic, anyone who says otherwise is objectively wrong.
  7. No one deserves to suffer with a Sinclair computer.
  8. Gotta strip disk 7, man. Can't have just one with a slipcover!
  9. In all honesty, I think half of why I loved Shockwave so much WAS the fact that he had two legs and joints where joints belonged. The other half, of course, was that he turned into a raygun with light and sound. But look on the bright side. If Prowl HAD had two separate legs, you'd've had shattered Prowls ANYWAYS. That's the lesson I took away from Tracks, anyways. I think I may actually be bitter about my Tracks experience.
  10. And since we've got the Commodore crowd in here... my first COMPUTER was a TI 99/4a. 16-bit power!
  11. What, not a Studio II? A Channel F? An ODYSSEY? You're just another newb like all the rest of us.
  12. Nice until the joysticks broke thirty minutes later. But seriously, that's a sexy piece of hardware.
  13. Hawt. Mine was a Vectrex. Original GCE version.
  14. Because it was AWESOME! ... When I was six. As with most of us, I had pretty poor taste as a kid.
  15. Damn rich kids! (At this point, getting some flavor of TurboGrafX is on my short list of things to do with my collection.)
  16. I still don't understand why it was called Gatchaman. I enjoyed the show for what it was, but was bugged that they put the Gatchaman name on something so clearly unrelated.
  17. I had a Super Nintendo, and was pretty darn sure it was the RIGHT choice. Having matured somewhat since then, and actually LOOKED at both sides... I have a lot more respect for Sega than I used to.
  18. I'm starting to suspect they're doing V2s of everything on purpose. So they can tap the accureate and "needs more curves" markets both. ... Or just so they can sell everyone two copies of the "same" figure.
  19. In fairness, Scrounge isn't completely pulled out of their backside. He's one of those comic-book-only characters that never had a toy. But at least he was an AMERICAN comic book character instead of one of those weird british ones like Impactor. And he had a special arm!
  20. Oh, the second half of the 4th one is wall-to-wall action. Classic Micheal Bay mispacing. The first one is just painful. It's all bad writing and almost no robots shooting robots. What little action IS there is edited so haphazardly you can't even tell what's going on. The second one at least delivers on the promise of robots shooting guns at each other.
