Soon.
Very soon.
We'll be making the robot with two backs.
]]>Yes. I came across a site with some "giant transforming robots macking on other giant, transforming robots".
I had to look up what Yaoi was, though I think I came across the term months ago and didn't realize what it was.
There seems to be a lot of bizarre implications of sexual domination of Red Alert implied on some of these.
You've got Stasis Cuffs, a very angry Inferno protecting a boyish Red Alert from Starcream, and a couple of others.
But quite frankly, if I was forced at gun point to pick a favorite, I'll have to go with Lamborghini Fun.
Obviously, this homage to Headmasters comes in a solid 2nd. (There's actually quite a lot of those.)
Wait. Maybe the incest one is the best.
And then... well...what can I say about this one.
Yup. Absolutely nothing.
Oh internets. What wonders you bring me on a daily basis!
What scary gay robot wonders.
Ya know... I'm kinda think'n I need to jump on that "hope for change" bandwagon now.
]]>
I've been looking at Animated Strika and ya know, out of all the Beast Machines characters you could reimagine, the old Lesbot looks pretty damn good in that sketch at Tformers.com.
I can't wait to see what she looks like in color and especially how the toy comes out.
At least I hope there's a toy.
And I can hope for it to be at least Leader class can't I?
]]>Because if there is a word in English like that then that's truly what I think of Movable Type 4.2's templating.
I actually came across someone with the same complaints I have and someone from MT commented and said something along the lines that MT has such "grokable templates" now or something like that.
Um. No.
I've come to the conclusion now that if you want to remotely customize the design of your site beyond changing simple CSS colors, Movable Type really isn't for you any more.
You need to be an expert at understanding all of this and how it interacts and so forth.
Well.
After 200+ hours over the course of the past few months I certainly don't grok this shit.
Where was I going with this?
Oh. Yeah.
I really hate Movable Type 4.2.
It is a fine example of an application that went from being incredibily simple and functional for the intermediate user to a dog slow piece of shit that is now more confusing.
I'm pretty much back to looking at new blogging software and just abandoning this mess.
]]>
I've wanted a decent little Wall-E and EVE as soon as I saw the movie and now I gots 'em!
More crack for my work office.
]]>
On the whole, he's not bad. His blue face leaves a lot to be desired, especially with the shitty paint job mine has.
TF Universe Ironhide is the 2131st Transformer that I've acquired.
]]>
He's got that hunch-backy feel though.
I tried rearranging what parts I could but he never quite gets out of that.
I'm totally loving his hands though.
I love the way they fold back, almost mimicking (as practical as can be) the way his hand retracted into his body for accessories in the old cartoon.
His weapon blade clicked onto the wrist once the hand is bend aside and I'm thinking that the right person, with the ability to mold and produce accessories, could really do a great accessory pack for him and Ratchet.
I wish that Hasbro had either made the alt mode windows clear or just painted them all. The half-and-half is one of my major peeves here.
I think I read that the Henkei version fixes the blue face and some of the other nits but I can't say for certain if it would be worth it.
However, with the inevitable Ractchet, some chrome against the white would be nice.
Put back a lens I wanted though. Several Circuit City stores are going out of business here and have a rather piss poor sale going on. Hell, it was obvious that some of their shit was raised in price so that the "sale" basically brought it down to what it retails for most places.
More later.
]]>Speaking of the delays, Legion of 3 Worlds #3 is now scheduled for Jan. 14, 2009 and issue #4 is scheduled for Feb. 25, 2009. Issue #5 has not been solicited yet...
I've spent a good chunk of my life in the publishing industry.
Why the fuck can't a companies like DC and Marvel remotely keep shit on a monthly schedule?
They have so many months lead-in and yet these companies, as publishers, are totally incompetent.
How is that in the pre-digital hey-dey of paper crack, writers and artists managed to produce a ton of shit on a monthly schedule and yet now, in this digital world of fast transmission and everything else Adobe has touched can't a goddamn comic book company put books out on schedule!??!?!
It can only mean that they are totally incompetent or that they just don't care.
If any of our publications failed to meet deadline heads would roll.
Obviously, these companies must view us, their stupidly retarded customers, as utter shit!
]]>Take balls.
Add nasty.
And you have my general feelings on the matter.
ALL I WANT IS TO GET RID OF THIS DAMN DEFAULT!!!
]]>So...
Are Mighty Muggs original or are they a derivative of the Munnies or are Munnies original or are they a derivative of the Mighty Muggs?
They are kinda-sorta the same basic thing.
Obviously, my first exposure to these types of things were Mister Sloane's #1 Award Winning Botcon entry from earlier this year (below).
And truth be told, I think I'm more partial to the Munny shapes over the Mugg shapes.
In regards to the TF Muggs, face-plate bots such as Prime and Soundwave look a helluva lot better than actual face-mouth bots such as the Megatron and Bumblebee.
I think I'm partial to these things being more abstract and the real face ruins it for me.
Mister Sloane kept the Beast bot faces, but they are more abstract than the ones on those 2 Muggs and I think that really appeals to me.
And of course, the current mascot of Plasticcrack.com, my totally tits awesome Munny Shockwave, couldn't possibly have a more abstract face if one tried!
So.
Help a brother out with some data folks.
Don't make me have to be all Googly and shit.
]]>How's it go'n?
Good?
Excellent.
Yeah, Giga's working on the online store. Hopefully the security certs will be fully active and we'll be able to run some content test on it.
Huh? Oh... there will be a "Buy My Crack" link appearing somewhere on the home page that will take you there when it is fully online.
What'll I have up?
Well... I need to filter out some things first that some Cowlanders may want and then it'll probably be Armada, Energon, Cybertron, and miscellaneous G1 stuff.
No. I do not have MIB G1 stuff.
No. I never wanted to own a lot of G1 stuff.
Huh? Oh never! Shockwave, Lucky Draw Black Fire Convoy, the Botcon Beast Wars set are not for sale.
It'll be up soon.
]]>WTF?!?!?!
I swear I just can't keep track of the whats and wheres of the DCU anymore.
]]>Did you know that being forced to watch Transformers Energon was used as torture by the Nazis?
Yup!
I read that somewhere.
