    Renegadeleader1, I’m familiar at least in passing with the aircraft you mentioned (the thing that always gets me about the Airacuda more than anything is where did they get that name from?!) though I hadn’t heard of the AT-9 before.

    This year marks the 85th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain. In the UK the Spitfire, and to a (sadly) lesser extent the Hurricane [1], are the symbols of the Battle but over the past few years I've become a little bit fascinated with an aircraft that is much less well known: the Boulton-Paul Defiant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boulton_Paul_Defiant Now don't get me wrong - I'm not one of those people who is going to claim that the Defiant was some kind of latent super-fighter that could have taken on a F-22 and won - but I just find its story interesting. The main reason I've bought it up is that it never ceases to amazes me the little undiscovered side-alleys that still wait to surprise the fan of World War II military history, and one of those I only discovered today was that the Defiant had a single seat, forward firing gun armed [2] variant planned, which somehow I'd never heard of before!: https://www.historyofwar.org/articles/weapons_boulton_paul_P94.html [1] If one were really reaching, one could also class the Blackburn Skua and Roc as "Battle of Britain" fighter aircraft... [2] The Defiant could fire forward, if the gunner locked the guns in position, but only the pilot could then fire them but as he had no gunsight...

    I hope they do a "Streets of Rage" one down the line!

    Ah, I did wonder - I have a G1 Soundwave myself so I know the toy version had yellow eyes. I knew the Lego one came with alternate pieces but that specific piece wasn't the shape I was expecting.

    Whats the little yellow triangular thing in the far right of the main cassette deck form image?

    Or... F-91 as originally planned?

    So between witches from Mercury and sorcery is "Gundam" becoming a magical girl show? 😄

    Wow, thats a lucky find! I had a copy myself once, if I only knew... despite its flaws, one of those titles that long sticks in the memory.

    I mean, considering who hes named after... 😅

    "Oh, no. Not again!"

    Thanks, it sounds like I may have over-reacted a tad but didn't want anyone caught unawares if possible.

    Thanks for the replies about data transfer. I don't have Nintendo Online so wasn't entirely sure about that.

    Heads up for those that have got a Switch 2, according to reports, if you want to transfer the data from an original Switch you have to do it when the 2 prompts you when first started up, you will not get a second opportunity without a factory reset, which will likely lose you the data you were trying to transfer in the first place.

    I think part of the disappointment this series is going to generate is that it was set up to go one, and conceptually awesome, way (what if Zeon won?!), and its instead gone a different route to what that idea would suggest. I suspect over time it might be judged as not a bad series per se as more one that didn't live up to its promise...

    Of course, no other Gundam character ever had his head turned by the next girl they saw cough Matilda cough... 😅
