    A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    The constant saying of "kalkite" wasn't that funny to me, but the beginning about 20 or so seconds where it seemed like he was just constantly making distracting noises with the chair and all the other Imperials were trying not to react to that struck me as funny. If it had kept going on like...

    Thread of Thoughts, Questions (and Maybe Even Answers) That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread

    Maybe they could beat up a bunch of different teenagers that weren't being protected by the Autobots and steal their money.

    Robosen Soundwave Revealed

    To be fair, that's true of pretty much any adult / collector focused Transformers merchandise, it's just a matter of scale. These things are way out of my justifiable price range, but for anyone that that's not true for, I can see the appeal. Like Marge says, I just think they're neat.

    That's a bold-faced lie! He doesn't walk like he's going to poop himself! He walks like he's already BEGUN pooping himself and is trying to minimize the damage while reaching a restroom. I kid. Honestly, if I had much more disposable income, I would probably buy him. He seems the best...

    The Pet thread

    We got a dog from the local Human Society over the summer. Part chihuahua, part....terrier of some sort? He came with the name Conway, and we've kept it. Here he is with Santa:

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    That Sunstreaker reminds me of how much we need an Alternators Dead End repaint of that mold. Also, I think just about everyone got accidentally colored like Hot Rod at some point.

    Honestly, I'm not very familiar with their cartoon models, having never watched more that a small bit of the cartoon. With that being true, I could see a lot of people being unhappy with a straight up repaint or slight remold. I wouldn't be one of those people, but I have to admit that I'm a...

    I'm passing on Bruticus for now. I have the CW one and I don't NEED a new one, despite actually really liking it, especially the individual components. That said, I would probably buy me a Ruination repaint. I don't have any particular love for R.I.D., but being a different set of characters...

    Studio Series discussion

    I will fight you. I would say that the vast majority of the Classics molds were good to great (depending on what all you count as "Classics", the definition is pretty fluid).

    That is some ingenious design right there. That's how you know that a designer loves his job.

    Toys Operation: Revalation. Robosen Soundwave Revealed!

    From Youtube, the reveal video of Robosen G1 Flagship Soundwave has ejected! Similar to the previous Robosen figures, Soundwave automatically converts from his tape deck mode to robot mode with voice-command speech recognition, preprogrammed movements, sound clips, lights, and all the bells and...

    Robosen Soundwave Revealed

    From the Front Page, full video reveal of Robosen Soundwave. These things are way out of my spending-zone, but I have to admit that this thing looks great. The stationary alt-mode actually lends itself better to being a display piece than the previous releases that don't really hold their...

    Yeah, proportions are still a bit off, but it feels less like "whoops, we made him too short" and more "this is a stocky, powerhouse sort of guy." But your stretched-out leg guys actually put it where I think it looks the most right.

    I was wondering why the Ruination concept looked so much better than the Bruticus colors, and I think I figured it out. His knees being the same color as the "boot frames" makes your brain think of them as part of the feet, which makes his legs looks shorter than they really are. If his knees...

    The Repaint Concept Thread

    I've never had a figure of the Rook mold despite wanting one. I missed it during CW, and it's always been juuuuust a bit too expensive to justify on ebay ever since. One of these days I just need to bite the bullet and buy him.

    Afterburner is probably my favorite Technobot, so I don't want to see him relegated to tiny-man status, but I do like that Ironclad and would be happy to have a "spare" Technobot!
