    Same place it does any other time you toast bread: inside the smoke detector.

    Did Dreadwing ever show up in the cartoon? There might be a problem if they only do extremely toon-accurate(from a specific viewing angle) versions.

    One thing I really liked about the original Windblade toy that hasn't carried over to future iterations is the novelty of the robot being predominantly red and the jet being predominantly black. This is, admittedly, possible because most of the jet hangs off her back in robot mode and most of the robot hangs off the bottom in jet mode. But that's just expected of a Transformers plane at this point, sadly. Headmaster Windblade was a waste of a perfectly good opportunity, with it's chunky hard-edged design. The arms especially just make me mad with the massively thick upper arms and the dainty pencil-thin lower arms.

    YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! ARMORED CORE IS BACK!

    In the words of Spider-Man(PS1): "Sure it breaks the laws of physics, but so does everything else I do."

    I enjoyed Crystal Skull... right up to the final scene where aliens warp in and steal the loot.

    I did not know that! ... Or once knew and forgot. I know it is too much to hope Hasbro will just use the toy they already have designs and molds for. Aggressive cost reductions, whoo!

    And this is why original toy accuracy is important.

    Same. Maybe even get that armored Prime they had in the finale. Toy was designed but never produced, and it still stings.

    The only thing that will surprise me is seeing any of them in stores.

    Indiana Jones and the Wheel of Fortune, maybe? I think it has a nice ring to it.

    Imagine Weird Al in the Macrossverse. "Sir, he's broadcasting on all genres! We don't know how to stop him!"

    Better to watch the roundhouse than receive the roundhouse.

    Zero also showed the more direct countermeasures with the VF-0's head turret gunning down incoming missiles.

    I think they're retiring the Frenzy name. There's just Rumble (Red) and Rumble (Blue) going forward.

    Honestly, I was already thinking Galactic Empire sounds more accurate just based on how many superweapons they made.

    So they just call it a republic because it sounds good? Or is it a case of not knowing if it was a republic or a "democratic people's republic"? Truth in advertising is admittedly hard to find at times.

    I mean, in fairness, that particular twist has been telegraphed so heavily for so long that the only thing actually surprising about it is that it didn't happen in the final episode of the TV series.

    Jesus Christ.... May the greatest power ranger(I recognized his awesomeness when I didn't even like the show) find the peace that escaped him in life.

    Or ejecting the cockpit as a module(seen frequently on the VF-11 in Macross 7), or the entire nose as a module(seen once in SDF Macross)

    Makes you wonder if maybe they needed one more meeting than they had. "Hey, you hear anything about the new VF-19?" "The guys I ran into said they're working on big avionics changes to make it more pilot-friendly." "Huh. Wonder why no one told us a new revision was coming. Let's see if we can't get another thousand kilos of thrust in there, so the pilots can make the most of this new friendlier OS!"
  23. JB0
    Also, the delay before the toned-down, more-controllable VF-19 variants came out left an opening for the VF-171 to exploit. Particularly as even after the VF-19 stopped killing pilots, it still had to overcome a reputation and was still pretty expensive.

    Hopefully this goes well. The idea that we might see a return to the moon in my lifetime is suddenly looking real again.

    Godzilla in that picture's just going "Bro, seriously? I gotta drop you to the floor AGAIN?"
