I know we're on a tangent in the legacy thread, so I'll keep it short - I saw pics on discord. They look good! I also reached out to the company. I didn't realize they were shipping from Ontario, so I'll be a little more patient.

Actually . . . this is good to know, b/c I'm in the same boat. Shipped on 12/12 and no sign of it yet.

Just an updated Galactic Peace Keeper. That's good enough for me. . . . (I might want a half dozen, though. Or so.)

Agreed - big square headlights would complete the cartoon look.

Oh, that's a cool little archive.

The more blue cranes the merrier?

Wow. Blue Hook is awesome!

Ok, yeah. He had stuff posted here at one point, too.

I recognize that name. He got a (cartoon? comic?) cameo somewhere.

I remember reading this was a game with ratings, too - make the blood look a little less real. This was in Starlog or one of the old newsstand magazines my mom used to buy, so I couldn't find the source at this point.

Stark or Wakandan.

Well - Hana Hatae (Molly O) is 36-ish. I should be used to stuff like that now, but I'm not. Apropos of nothing, Bumper Robinson was a teenage Jem Hadar. (...and now that I typed that out, it sounds like a movie...)

It is fun to see bits of shared engineering or just "shared ways of doing __________," even years later, like seeing something that works the way the Alternators did way down the line.

Finding the middle ground with release windows/reissues/slight recolors is tough. It'd be great if the release windows were longer for some toys, so that more of us could get them. But having the same figure come up again seems to piss people off. Then again, we are talking about fans on a...

I think I remember something about that (unless I'm getting stories crossed in my head. I'm old.) Glad you got that one back in your collection - that's pretty cool.

It's sad to see her go. This was a nicely done write-up for her, though: https://www.npr.org/2024/09/27/1228377614/maggie-smith-dead

Totally thought that said "Greendale" for a second there.

Looks like it was fixed, though: https://dailymontanan.com/2024/09/23/montanas-overseas-voting-system-fixed-after-error-leaves-harris-off-ballot/

This is a minor thing many (many) posts later, but it's the funniest thing I saw in the whole thread.

We used to have Albertsons and Safeway. Safeway disappeared from this area a long time ago, but now the name belongs to Albertsons. We do have Fred Meyer, whose business model seems to be "Walmart but more expensive," and they're owned by Kroger. So they do sorta compete.
