(Takei) OH MY (/Takei)

Lower Decks needs Ensign Stabby. ---Dave

Thinning craft paint doesn't help much, it's already pretty watery. And I must've applied twenty coats, the last several thinned. ---Dave, utterly sick of being told to thin his paints...these aren't miniatures paints. That trick doesn't work with craft paints.

The time slips also gave them a "done in one" threat they could focus the first episode on. Season-long arcs can get old unless there's a significant accomplishment every so often, and giving Loki a problem that could be fixed also solved the story beat issue. Sure, the "close the blast doors"...

I got the impression that Rutherford and Tendi may be demisexual (Tendi by Orion standards, given her S1 make-out scene). And at the very least, neither is really comfortable with sexual attraction: Rutherford because his memory wipe took out a lot of his formative horny teenager stuff, and...

I forgot about Flamewar, mostly because as an unmodified crappy Arcee mold I had no desire to get one (and the local Ross didn't get any). ---Dave

Shapeways high detail clear plastic, once you clean off some of the rough bits, takes dye quite well, so it'd be possible to buy three and dye them for Arcee, Road Rocket, and Femme!Jazz. ---Dave

MW-01, but crossed with the Guntank concept. ---Dave

I suspect that if we get a bigger Arcee, she'll also need a lot of paint.... ---Dave

GE Megatron's mace has two big problems. One, the paint stops halfway down each flange, which is weird. Two, the peg and socket for connecting the two pieces make it deliberately incompatible with the forearm-swap line gimmick. So I fixed both issues and also replaced all the figure's purple...

Head of EMOTIONAL Security. ---Dave

Mandalorian helmets must have some sort of inner lining that isn't bare metal, or they'd keep spinning around on the wearers' heads. And that lining could include a VR HUD sort of deal that gets attached after the archaic forging step is done. ---Dave

The cliche of the ToS hero (if not always borne out by actual canon) is the loose cannon maverick who not only doesn't play by the Book, they toss the Book out the airlock and Get Stuff Done. The "cowboy" archetype that Kirk gets slapped on him at times. Picard was a deliberate contrast with...

The robot mode is not worth the effort, but I liked the sorta choro-Q vehicle mode she has going here, it just needed more paint. ---Dave

Yeah, the stabbing was one of the best running gags ever. I agree with the "destined for greatness" thing, but with a twist. Most of them are Refusing The Call and staying that way. They just wanna stay where they are being nerds about Starfleet stuff. They could be great, but they'd rather...

There's a FFXIV TTRPG coming out soon, they just announced it and opened pre-orders. It does not appear to be D&D-based, since it comes with 10d6 and 6d20. ---Dave

And here's the vehicle mode, and a comparison to a mostly-stock Minerva. ---Dave

This is the second time a DC animation project has used Esperanto for Kryptonian (a Supergirl direct to disc movie was the first). I studied Esperanto by mail in high school in the late 1980s, I never learned enough to be fluent but I do remember enough to catch when it's being spoken. ---Dave

They hit Target a few weeks ago, annoyingly at $7. ---Dave
