  1. Totally. That gold bug is pretty awesome.
  2. Pretty much anything could be slotted in for comic backstory. It's not an issue that ever comes up. Amen.
  3. In the Major's case, it's probably not even her "real" name. At least in the comics. Which is not to say that I'm looking forward to the movie, but, well... I've already had my heart broken with this franchise before. Another bad movie won't be the end of the world.
  4. Gigil nothin'. GAMLIN singing, man. I think Basara only came out of his coma so Gamlin would stop butchering his song.
  5. They will flee in terror as I belt them out the way no one in the franchise has since Exedol!
  6. Which'd make Gypsy about 1/173 scale. And Cherno 1/187. Pity they aren't to a scale instead of to a size.
  7. Herculite sounds like a trade name to me. Like Plexiglass, Lucite, or Lexan. Certainly, it implies a substance unknown to modern science, but in the lens of trade names it's less silly than in if it's a proper material designation. Edit: Wow, I literally missed an entire page of posts. Sorry.
  8. As far as I can tell, no english licensors at all. Damn shame, too.I want some disks!
  9. So over the weekend I was made aware that the author of Full Metal Panic had another series animated recently, and marathoned Amagi Brilliant Park. In which a high-school student is drafted at gunpoint into managing a ratty amusement park and saving it from shutdown. It's... pretty much exactly what I expected. Except that I really really really wished there was more when I was done. And then I decided to rewatch Utena. And started with the movie, because I was apparently feeling the need to damage my sanity. Thing is beautiful, but defies almost all sense of logic and reason.
  10. I grabbed Powerglide because he has a real-life alt mode with a known real-world size for scaling purposes, while still being in the "non-combining autobots" camp. If we're not limiting ourselves... MP-scale Metroplex. Let's go big or go home.
  11. Maybe they folded to the beginning of time and became- okay, I'll stop now.
  12. But, but... I'm waiting with bated breath for an in-scale MP Powerglide...
  13. Isn't it about time for the Robotech Masters to show up? I mean, they did the invid last season...
  14. Feh. Clearly the Megaroad-01, AKA SDF-002, had an escort battleship in the SDF-2. It's like how the New Macross class has a City-# and Battle-#. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it. Then my work here is done.
  15. What if SDF-003 and SDF-3 AREN'T the same thing? Something like civilian vessels get a 00 prepended to their number while military vessels don't? Or what if Britai's flagship WAS the SDF-3 before a fold accident sent it backwards in time and he became the first Robotech Master?
  16. I kind of liked the implication in the first new movie. It felt like the universe was trying to correct itself, get things back on track. And that's one of the problems with modern Trek(and the sequel serieses are included here). It's not just unwilling to confront social issues, it's explicitly banned from doing so.
  17. Megaroad-2, obviously.
  18. Don't hate. I honestly have no issues with the latest incarnation of Trek because, well, Trek's always varied wildly from week to week. I'm just annoyed by the space katana and that Kahn was wasted so early in the parallel universe. ... Hey, I just had a thought.... how confusing will it be when the parallel universe meets the mirror universe? Will it be THE mirror, or a second mirror?
  19. Oh god... the memories... MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT STOP MAKEITSTOPMAKEITSTOPMAKEITSTOP!!!!!
