just be happy your walmart even stocks voyagers. mine doesnt

Figures that Walmart finally restocks Studio Voyagers...with Wave ONE

I snagged Rainmakers for half off.  They make me want jolly ranchers.

I was using my account on another comptuer, and oddly it seemed to default to $US rather than converting it.

You should be able to set eBay to display in your local currency, although personally I like to know the actual currency the item is listed in so I know if I need to account for forex fees or not

I'd also like to take the opportunity to say I despise Ebay for showing the list prices in US money.

Well there is an overpriced limited edition, but I don't want to pay that much money for it.

Well great. The one Usagi Yojimbo volume I don't have and it's out of stock.

I both love and hate that the Alien franchise seems to have had more luck finding a niche as a line of children's toys than it has at producing worthwhile films.

I've seen them on the shelves at Walmart. They're pretty great looking retro Aliens toys. https://www.walmart....-Vary/934039489

IIRC somebody on here mentioned an unbranded Alien toy a couple of weeks ago? It seems like it was actually part of a collection for the Alien movie series by Lanard. Mattel's making some stuff too.

Is it really a worse name than say, HMS Spanker?

'Boaty McBoatface' was a actual thing?! Wow.

Might be worth bringing back this thread.

Of course I had the idea to download all the pdfs like a week too late. Anyone got an archive?

The Collector Club is dead. Seems like it all came down shortly after New Year

I can't get to the collector club website. anyone else? I was literally going to download all the fiction to finish reading.

News today is all 'there's a CHANCE it would snow in July' and 'dogs COULD bite back'.

Holy crap, do many people get hurt by them?

Even in fallout, they never carpet bombed with nukes.

I hope the stockpiled nuclear weapons of the US and Russia are accounted for then.

Geez. 1760 (!) bombs from World War II that had not detonated and were still armed have been found. That's only the numbers for the federal state of Germany I live in, and only for the first three quarters of 2019. For all of 2018, the total number was 2811 (!!) bombs.

I've been wanting a Tarantulas that turns into a more realistic tarantula for a long time. Maybe Takara will someday do a Masterpiece, which would be neat. But I really want to see a modernized look like in the IDW comics.

We need more Waspinators.. and rattraps.

I'm on board with that

What I'm hearing is we need Cyberverse Waspinator

He's appeared across more branding changes than Waspinator, so maybe it's more the other way around.

is C3PO the Waspinator of Star Wars? he'll live forever, because it's funny for him to suffer

He's still waiting for them to be funny.

Why?

I've been watching South Park, Family Guy and The Simpsons with a straight face for a decade now.

If that's what it takes to get you to take the medication, sure.

If I go crazy, will you still call me Superman?

I mean, it is easier to protect HDDs, and you can retransfer the data over and over forever?

Not in this comparison. He's making his own files, so they're (presumably) not restricted by DRM, so he can copy them as many times as he wants. It's potentially more reliable in the long term than hoping the specific copies you originally bought never accrue any damage for the rest of your life.

I prefer physical copies too. Easier to protect something physical and tangible.

I prefer having physical copies.

I have plenty of physical media I turn into digital media for my plex server. Just finished ripping Ultra Seven

Isn't the general consensus that we're supposed to be over physical media anyways?

i still don't own a Blu-Ray player.

My current TV works just fine. I don't see a need to upgrade. And by the time I do, the Next Big Thing will probably be out anyway.

Me neither. I'm no rebel, though. I'm just poor.

I haven't gone 4K yet, I'm a rebel.

the comic theme is amazing

Sounds like Victor Caroli but I’m not sure.

Should I recognise the narrator of the Mutant Hunt trailer?

I got me Titans Return Blaster, now watch them unveil Earthrise Blaster and Generations Perceptor, a retool of Titans Blaster.

I recently switched to to the comic theme here at the Allspark and I'm so happy I just want to look at it.

Can you not take so many lines to say anything?

Iunno, maybe people having unique pronunciations of things re:how they understand language makes the world a more colourful place, rather than one where we correct every seemingly grievous error?
