    Nuclear Fusion Breakthrough in Japan!

    This is basically a further refinement of the old Tokamak concept, which they've gotten to work in short bursts for decades, but which they could never sustain. (Among other things, the plasma would tend to escape magnetic containment and melt the magnets.) I presume that advances in computing...

    Dungeons & Dragons

    There's just something about Circle of the Moon Tiefling Druids. (I played one for a while earlier this year before finding out about Doric. The Wild Shape, even if not as OP as Doric's, was her most useful asset.) ---Dave

    THE KNOCK OFF TRANSFORMERS THREAD

    To be fair, the massive simplifications on those molds fixes some of the wonky issues. Looks more like a Legion class version. Found the other two Rescue Bot clones, and fixed a problem with the gimmick of one of the first six: I figure Heat Wave volunteered to be the donor for a refinement...

    THE KNOCK OFF TRANSFORMERS THREAD

    (The yellow tag shows a dump truck, which I couldn't find, but neither was I inclined to spend a lot of time going through the bin on the bottom shelf. So there's at least one I don't have, probably two for symmetry.) ---Dave

    THE KNOCK OFF TRANSFORMERS THREAD

    Found these at Dollar Tree today, they share all but what's on back of the legs (and the colors), six different-ish vehicles. They have friction motors and auto-transform by running into a wall and then trying to shove through it. They actually work, too. Rescue Bots size, so I guess they can...

    Dungeons & Dragons

    Yeah, those are meant to be thinned and then applied in many coats. One thing that might help is to take the black and thin it a LOT, and use it as a "wash" to settle into the nooks and crannies, to give the impression of shadows. (Normally you'd want to use a darker shade of the same color...

    Transformers RED Series

    I've seen BB at Ollie's. Still no indication that Prime Megatron will ever hit anything but scalper shelves. ---Dave

    Dungeons & Dragons

    Also, keep in mind that paint advice depends on the kind of paint you're using, which is why people keep asking. Most miniatures paints these days are overpigmented/concentrated, and designed to be thinned before use. But I almost entirely use "craft" paints (the kind you can get in 2 ounce...

    Customs Noah Diaz Exo-Suit as B.A.T. Trooper

    ToyHax order arrived today. And I did a little touchup on the sad metallic orange paint of the Studio Series Primal's Transwarp Key, but Cobra Commander couldn't wait to get in on the crossover: ---Dave

    Loki - streaming on Disney+

    I like how they gave us without actually using the name. I suppose if they do want a third season (or to use this Loki elsewhere), they could always have . ---Dave

    IDW Unicorn of Odd #3

    Yeah, the Classics Reimagined line is still using the G4 cast. Plus there's the occasional "best of (character)" mini-collections to let IDW recycle old content. ---Dave

    Customs Noah Diaz Exo-Suit as B.A.T. Trooper

    While reviewing the toy I realized it looked a lot like a B.A.T. Trooper, so a day of dyeing and some painting later, my spare (I ordered one on Pulse before finding it in-store) became Cobra's latest asset: ---Dave

    Loki - streaming on Disney+

    Yeah, there's no way that last line this week wasn't at least a little reference to . ETA, as someone whose first "fandom" was Norse Myth (I was reading the children's library stuff on it back in kindergarten), when I saw stuff dissolving into threads that were mostly gold, red, and black/gray...
