  1. When people start talking about Kingdom Hearts, I can never tell if I missed something amazing or dodged a bullet by not getting into that series.
  2. Darius 1 is also kinda klunky. Limited shots on-screen, combined with VERY long screen, makes every missed shot very punishing. Taito got better, obviously.
  3. Super Nintendo game is a sequel, as I understand things. It was a much diffrent game than the original arcade game, for the better. The original arcade is a stiff and boring game once you get past the initial "omg three screens!" aspect.
  4. Of all the games to get another sequel... I love the title progression(Ninja Warriors, Ninja Warriors Again, Ninja Warriors Once Again), but really... it just isn't all that notable aside from being stuffed in a giant 3-screen Darius cab originally.
  5. Having never actually finished Delta, and having bailed right around the point Mikumo's back story started to come out... I'm starting to think that Star Singer is a synonym for "emulator", which makes Mikumo basically an Ishtar bootleg. So... Macross 2 did it better?
  6. Yeah, they seemed to draw every scene those two were in with an eye towards reminding people they were lesbians. Just in case we managed to forget in the last ten minutes.
  7. Difference between the men and the boys... Actually, having been doing a little side project recently, I've come to find the trailer more important than I used to. I was comparing Prime toys from three different characters(OG, Powermaster, and Cybertron), and realized that aside from "red truck" and "radiator for abs", they also all shared "trailer turns into a battle station."
  8. I'm reasonably sure that's not true, if only because I've seen monster truck commercials with a transforming truck, and it was a lot more than two feet tall. But that is a pretty darn big Prime.
  9. That's the VD-1 Ajax. (Variable Detergent, obviously)
  10. To be clear, I was making fun. Go figure that's an accepted spelling.
  11. Wait, Hayate and Mirage got good at some point? ... Wait, Mirage is actually DOING something? CLEARLY things changed wildly after I dropped Delta.
  12. Gasp! The Gelgoog and the AJAX share a head! Gundam ripped off Southern Cross!
  13. I've heard of that one! I think it is some sort of pirate bootleg dub?
  14. "The single best-selling character in the history of the Chogokin series " Well, that explains the availability and aftermarket pricing issues. Turns out he's a mighty robot loved by good, feared by evil, and coveted by toy collectors.
  15. As long as you don't tell me WHAT context, because I'm pretty sure I don't want to know.
  16. We're calling them missile hoses.
  17. Honestly, I'm surprised the refund happened. A Kickstarter story with a happy ending is rare.
  18. The SDF-3 is their Megaroad-1, after all. People hate to accept that a story has come to an actual conclusion.
  19. Here's what I don't understand. Why, in the infinite multitude of things to rip off, would you choose something as distinctive(and weird) as giant blue star-hopping space tardigrades? You simply can't argue independent evolution with that.
  20. Like XPanders, but with more play potential.
  21. Either they are buying it to laugh at the awful, or no one's buying and they keep making them as part of some sort of tax scam or money-laundering scheme. I don't see any other options.
  22. This is the limited-edition movie colors.
  23. I love you, you love me, let's conquer the galaxy.
  24. Agreed wholeheartedly.
  25. Yeah, it is some neat package design.
