Figures that Walmart finally restocks Studio Voyagers...with Wave ONE
@  ThunderWear : (19 January 2020 - 09:27 AM)

I snagged Rainmakers for half off.  They make me want jolly ranchers.
@  Trpodeca : (18 January 2020 - 04:21 PM)

I was using my account on another comptuer, and oddly it seemed to default to $US rather than converting it.
@  TM2-Megatron : (18 January 2020 - 02:02 PM)

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
@  Trpodeca : (18 January 2020 - 06:34 AM)

I'd also like to take the opportunity to say I despise Ebay for showing the list prices in US money.
@  Trpodeca : (18 January 2020 - 06:23 AM)

Well there is an overpriced limited edition, but I don't want to pay that much money for it.
@  Trpodeca : (18 January 2020 - 06:21 AM)

Well great. The one Usagi Yojimbo volume I don't have and it's out of stock.
@  Rycochet : (17 January 2020 - 06:15 PM)

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.
@  Donocropolis : (17 January 2020 - 06:35 AM)

I've seen them on the shelves at Walmart. They're pretty great looking retro Aliens toys. https://www.walmart....-Vary/934039489
@  fourteenwings : (17 January 2020 - 01:11 AM)

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.
@  NotVeryKnightly : (16 January 2020 - 03:12 PM)

Is it really a worse name than say, HMS Spanker?
@  Maximus Ambus : (16 January 2020 - 02:36 PM)

'Boaty McBoatface' was a actual thing?! Wow.
@  NotVeryKnightly : (14 January 2020 - 02:00 PM)

Might be worth bringing back this thread.
@  ThunderWear : (14 January 2020 - 01:53 PM)

Of course I had the idea to download all the pdfs like a week too late. Anyone got an archive?
@  Steevy Maximus : (14 January 2020 - 12:48 PM)

The Collector Club is dead. Seems like it all came down shortly after New Year
@  ThunderWear : (13 January 2020 - 11:06 PM)

I can't get to the collector club website. anyone else? I was literally going to download all the fiction to finish reading.
@  Maximus Ambus : (13 January 2020 - 04:50 AM)

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?
@  wonko the sane? : (12 January 2020 - 02:11 PM)

Even in fallout, they never carpet bombed with nukes.
@  Maximus Ambus : (12 January 2020 - 12:43 PM)

I hope the stockpiled nuclear weapons of the US and Russia are accounted for then.
@  Nevermore : (12 January 2020 - 12:22 PM)

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.
@  CVReynolds : (11 January 2020 - 11:05 PM)

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.
@  Tm_Silverclaw : (11 January 2020 - 09:43 PM)

We need more Waspinators.. and rattraps.
@  Ashley : (11 January 2020 - 07:09 PM)

I'm on board with that
@  Dekafox : (11 January 2020 - 06:17 PM)

What I'm hearing is we need Cyberverse Waspinator
@  NotVeryKnightly : (10 January 2020 - 01:27 AM)

He's appeared across more branding changes than Waspinator, so maybe it's more the other way around.
@  Ashley : (10 January 2020 - 12:01 AM)

is C3PO the Waspinator of Star Wars? he'll live forever, because it's funny for him to suffer
@  Sabrblade : (09 January 2020 - 11:52 PM)

He's still waiting for them to be funny.
@  ▲ndrusi : (09 January 2020 - 10:35 PM)

Why?
@  Maximus Ambus : (09 January 2020 - 04:02 PM)

I've been watching South Park, Family Guy and The Simpsons with a straight face for a decade now.
@  wonko the sane? : (09 January 2020 - 03:18 PM)

If that's what it takes to get you to take the medication, sure.
@  Bass X0 : (09 January 2020 - 01:52 PM)

If I go crazy, will you still call me Superman?
@  fourteenwings : (09 January 2020 - 11:37 AM)

I mean, it is easier to protect HDDs, and you can retransfer the data over and over forever?
@  NotVeryKnightly : (09 January 2020 - 10:45 AM)

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.
@  Echowarrior : (09 January 2020 - 10:44 AM)

I prefer physical copies too. Easier to protect something physical and tangible.
@  Maximus Ambus : (09 January 2020 - 09:55 AM)

I prefer having physical copies.
@  Tm_Silverclaw : (09 January 2020 - 08:56 AM)

I have plenty of physical media I turn into digital media for my plex server. Just finished ripping Ultra Seven
@  fourteenwings : (09 January 2020 - 08:50 AM)

Isn't the general consensus that we're supposed to be over physical media anyways?
@  Paladin : (09 January 2020 - 08:17 AM)

i still don't own a Blu-Ray player.
@  TheMightyMol... : (09 January 2020 - 07:35 AM)

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.
@  Benbot : (09 January 2020 - 03:58 AM)

Me neither. I'm no rebel, though. I'm just poor.
@  Maximus Ambus : (09 January 2020 - 03:38 AM)

I haven't gone 4K yet, I'm a rebel.
@  Ashley : (07 January 2020 - 11:50 PM)

the comic theme is amazing
@  Bass X0 : (07 January 2020 - 03:18 PM)

Sounds like Victor Caroli but I’m not sure.
@  Bass X0 : (07 January 2020 - 02:35 PM)

Should I recognise the narrator of the Mutant Hunt trailer?
@  Maximus Ambus : (07 January 2020 - 04:30 AM)

I got me Titans Return Blaster, now watch them unveil Earthrise Blaster and Generations Perceptor, a retool of Titans Blaster.
@  ThunderWear : (06 January 2020 - 10:22 PM)

I recently switched to to the comic theme here at the Allspark and I'm so happy I just want to look at it.
@  NotVeryKnightly : (06 January 2020 - 08:12 AM)

Can you not take so many lines to say anything?
@  fourteenwings : (06 January 2020 - 07:47 AM)

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?
@  Nevermore : (06 January 2020 - 06:12 AM)

Others insist on "Michael Yackson".

I've been on a Slayers binge. Re-read the novels, currently going through the manga. I don't have everything in both English and Japanese, but those that I do, I've been reading together to see where they differ. The old ones that reversed the pics sure did take a lot of liberties. TMM and I are missing a few vols of the English translation of Super Explosive Demon Story. They're all available on Amazon... Except for the final bill of the arc, of course. *Waves angry fist at the sky*. I do want to re-watch the anime again after all this. Also I have the Lina Nendroid XD

Uh.... Not really a question, I guess, just felt like rambling to a fellow Slayers fan.

Nice, nice! I got my hands on physical copies of the first three novels in english a bit ago thanks to a friend who was moving and needed to unload extra stuff - she'd recently picked up the JP novels as ebooks for the sake of practicing reading Japanese, so my gain there. :D I haven't started them yet, though. Been forever since I sat down to read an actual book-book, it's a little daunting.

 

Also been thinking about a rewatch myself, having found a few Slayers discord servers has kept it from fizzling out of my head, and there was a couple of fanworks weeks, one last month and one this month that got a reasonable amount of new content up on the ol' tungle and to a lesser degree on twitter. Wish I'd done more than just one thing for them and/or planned ahead, but I'll take any kind of output these days as a victory.

Any of my attempts to draw Slayers chars just does not do the chars justice, no matter which style I use. XD Oh well, it's still fun. Been contemplating a go at the original JP novels, but I'm a bit intimidated by kanji. I feel like automated translation things won't help much since there's a ton of non-JP terms/names in the series, but we'll see...

In my experience, the real kicker tends to be the hair, since it's a real crapshoot about how much they look right if you stray away from Araizumi's style. (It's also my experience that the only people that can make diverging the style work are ones who are Not Me.) Might be helpful to keep the KanzakaDex wiki on hand to compare terms/names since I figure most of those troublemakers will be the locations and spell names, and while it is a very lacking wiki in a lot of things, it does at least seem to have kanji and literal translations on hand for stuff like that in the articles.

Shouldn't gravity be doing something?
 
Of course there's a figure of Rodimus as some kind of animal girl. Why would I be surprised by this?

I wanted a different gif, but the only version I could find had weird timing and didn't loop right, so. Cat gif.
