I dunno.

Bluesky has

  1. Not allowed Nazis.
  2. Not sold itself to Elon Musk (See 1).

OK, so this resurfaced on facebook, and I have one thought. How about that for a Concept Art Megatron?

Note, this is not concept art. But why let technical correctness get in the way of a goof?

@trixter I think it's somebody's ground combat kitbash of the Neue Ziel.

In a rare attempt to be vaguely topical, my review of Legacy United Magneous will be up this Sunday.

I am honestly surprised that this exists. Its been a long time since they so overtly favoured a toy design over the Sunbow animation. Maybe not for me, but it is refreshing.

19 years ago today, Battlestar Galactica started (excluding the opening 2003 miniseries) with "33", one of the best episodes of the show.

"Every 33 minutes, the ragtag fleet of human survivors make a jump to a new location. And every 33 minutes, the Cylons manage to find them."

A tense day for William Adama and Saul Tigh
A view of the ragtag fleet of human survivors, where no one has been able to sleep for several days due to the relentless pursuit of the Cylons.
Also, a tense day for Lee "Apollo" Adama and Kara "Starbuck" Thrace.

@TheSpaceshipper I liked that episode a lot. It added a sense of urgency and desperation that old school BSG lacked. Season 1 was great for that sorta thing. It was a shame that the showrunners were sprinters rather than marathon runners though.

I'll say this for X. Despite its rampant nazi problem, the TERFs, its enablement of doom scrolling, and the overt, rich-idiot-without-a-filter stupidity of its owner, it is doing one thing right.

It keeps trying to sell me the new Armored Core game.

@trixter Facebook is currently trying to sell me the "Eat the Reich" kicstarter, so likewise.

So, its been a couple of months. We've all seen it, and we've had a chance to get the toys we like.

Would it be fair to say that was a non-event? A flash in the pan? Something basically OK, but fundamentally bland?

For your consideration: Sir Ian McKellen's boyband phase.

An inexpensive indulgence.

@trixter I will admit that I had to take a second look there.

@Urluck_UR@retro.pizza avatar

So, its been out a few weeks now. Most of us have seen it. Most of us have brought at least some of the toys. What do we honestly think of ?

I'm honestly apathetic. I've seen much worse Transformers films, and worse toylines, but its not brilliant.

I don't have an especially deep or well-informed opinion on the Ukraine/Russia War. I just watch a lot of military stuff, and know better than trivialise bloodshed.

That having being said: I can't easily remember when an invasion went so wrong the aggressor went and had a civil war.
