Oh yes, very much. Also has some more... problematic elements regarding how it chooses to, uh, let's call it "male gaze" the two main 14-year old girls characters.

i wouldn't say they're inelegant. Honestly, I think they're probably more elegant than the typical mecha given As far as I know, NGE was hugely influential on mecha anime, and anime in general. It holds a position in Japan that, like, Star Wars does in America. It's everywhere, still, to...

Curious if the reason they haven't fixed the paint on the Mrs. Potato Head statue outside of their RI HQ is due to penny pinching. Feel sorry for that toy store; being essentially a secondary archive for Hasbro must have been rad.

Deluxes are a 12% increase, Voyagers nearly 23% and Leaders 9% Yeah, that's a weird number for Voyagers.

Unless you ordered from Pulse in which case you might get Firefly shipped out to you and that's it.

I figured it was just tariff mark-up.

Got an e-mail today saying they found a different distributor for this item, so the price is dropping down to a more reasonable $115.

The keyword there is "mythology" If Zeus showed up today, he wouldn't be "mythology" anymore, he'd just be a fact. A similar thing happens with the 13; when they show up, they cease to become mythology and just become a factual part of the backstory. Also, keep in mind that just because...

I'm surprised we haven't gotten a "They were created by time traveling humans from the future" origin yet. Unless it's in one of those continuities I missed.

Not every continuity even has "the thirteen" so I don't know why, if we're making a new continuity where all these various origins become creation stories and theories, you also wouldn't leave the 13 obscured in the mists of legends.

The 6" scale D&D gelatinous cube that Hasbro did doubles as an accessory pack. It was on sale for $17.50 so I bit on it. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/211958

I also feel the contradictions can just be explained by different religious sects. Like, amongst people who worship Primus, some of them are believers in the Guiding Hand, while others believe in the 13, and still others just think Primus just created the cybertronians directly, no...

After a month when my Magmatron vanished, Hasbro shipped out a replacement no problem.

BBTS has the Skywarp/Insecticon pack up for preorder.. $135 with the tariff charge included. Yikes. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/333864
