The PDF of the Renegade TTRPG is now available (although I had to go looking for mine, I didn't get any notice that my pre-purchase was available). The gear system isn't as embarrassingly GIJoe-ish as in their Transformers game, but there's still a Wealth Check system and a few pages of gear...

The plushies could be made from recycled plastic bags, which can be made into fairly fuzzy cloth-like material. ---Dave

Well, they're supposed to be down 24 hours total, so tomorrow morning they should be back up. ---Dave

Also, most derailments are "Oops, a wheel slipped off, gotta stop and get it back on." The ones where cars actually fall over aren't as common, and those aren't generally newsworthy unless there's a hazard of some sort generated (spill, fire, etc). Like, a couple weeks ago there was a...

I did another for a friend (looks the same, no new pics), and then once Spike hit actual store shelves he grabbed a few more and asked me to chrome the helmets as troopbuilders. Took a few tries to get a satisfying mix of shine and durability. ---Dave

Imperials are big on framing others for their atrocities. And unlike Sandpeople, can be expected to have precise blast points. ---Dave

I did an analysis of the black dragon die by rolling it 200 times. It wasn't too far off true, but some numbers did come up way too often to be chance (IIRC 8 was really common). The beholder mold is very unfair, due to the fact two faces are rounded with scale patterns rather than being flat...

Current Lodestone headers: Original main character. Been doing the Loporrit tribe quests, so parked in a crafting class. Warrior main, but using the unlocked-last-night Pixie tribe quests to level ip White Mage. This is my Sunday night group character. Made mostly to do the "start in...

Depends on how their human bits were removed, I suppose. Digitally, good. Surgically, not so good. ---Dave

FWIW, if anyone's interested in friending, I've got characters on Excalibur (main server, got a free company I can invite to) and Hyperion (made one during my free trial days, spent the last couple weeks bringing her up to something useful). Excalibur: Kat Anderes (original main, L90 in a lot...

I'm a bit disappointed that the memorial wall text is all gibberish. I know they don't want to definitively eliminate any trademarked names from showing up later, but some easter eggs like the names of the animators or something would've been nice. ---Dave

Rock climbing, Joel. ---Dave

Eorzea is full of "bottomless" crevasses like that. And not all of them are actually as bottomless as people assume. (To be fair, some of them are the result of Allagan superweapon oopses, and the bottoms are assumed to be full of curdled reality or something.) ---Dave

Yeah, it's a Family Dollar exclusive, not Dollar General. Different companies. ---Dave

KWEH!

Right, in previous seasons they were more reasonable about it, but THIS season, it's "have you ever taken it off?" and that's it. ---Dave

Quality is...about what you'd expect, really. Some are better than others (Blight is actually less prone to losing his head than the official versions), but the joints are generally on the loose side and I eventually gave up on getting Windrazor into anything resembling the correct arm mode...

In S1, it was that you couldn't take your helmet off in front of outsiders. That's perfectly sensible, and allows for things like personal hygiene. Now they seem to be making it out that the helmet never ever comes off, which is frankly pretty stupid since that kid in S3E1 is gonna outgrow his...

New Dollar Tree figures. They're about 4cm tall, significantly larger than the G4 blindbag figures. Note, some of the package renders are mirror-flipped, two of them are facing to their left rather than their right. As you can barely tell, the pegasus wings are a shallow relief on the sides...

It probably didn't help that the soft reboot got tacked on. Why spend time exploring Bridlewood's past when you know it's just "post-apocalyptic Equestrian refugees" and destruction of the happy ending of G4? ---Dave
