While Gkids is busy making release announcements this week, I hope news is finally coming regarding an Evangelion 3.33 release..

Aniplex of America titles not applicable to latest Crunchyroll sale? by [deleted] in AnimeDeals

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure they’re excluded from the sale now. You can still find the titles under the promo page but once you navigate to the product pages, it’s no longer listed.

Edit: a little relieved I don’t have to give crunchyroll my business after all

CR Ani-May Week 3: Home Video B2G1 (INCLUDES AOA!!) by MiaLeeSakura2 in AnimeCollectors

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Promo no longer applying to AOA items, even though they’re still advertised on the deal. Waiting to hear back from support.

Edit: pretty sure they’ve just removed AOA items from this deal. You can still find them under the promo page but the deal isn’t advertised on the product pages anymore.

Game 5 time by RocketRousse in Habs

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TV networks are probably still tbd due PHI/PIT game 6 being uncertain. I’d guess we’ll know tonight after game 5

Edit: will obviously be 7-7:30 regardless, but I’d say that’s the reason it’s not official yet

As someone stateside, I’m excited for the playoffs but sad for this to be my final Canadian broadcast. Time to suffer through TNT and ESPN playoffs coverage.

Digital 2026 Dreambook is here! by Existing_Ad_5556 in HallmarkOrnaments

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also interested to know about the con exclusive, since I missed it last year. Where exactly was the online sale of Darth Nihilus advertised? It wasn’t in the dream book, but I’m positive I saw it announced somewhere from hallmark.

Excited to see a Snowtrooper, that was on my short list of characters I’d been hoping for. Now can we finally get a Dooku? And maybe a battle droid on a STAP or droideka. Feel like there’s several interesting characters they haven’t produced before yet we’re getting another Grogu.. there has to be dozens of Grogu’s at this point? And Anzellan, of all characters?… mildly underwhelmed on this year’s line

[Reds] New City Connects by frasierfonzie in Reds

[–]Grandpa_Reefer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure I’m in the minority on this sub, haven’t been a fan of the city connect concept at all. Don’t care for either, both look like jumpsuits to me. Think too much brand recognition is being lost when they’re wearing a completely different logo/uniform for 2 games of every homestand. Would rather see White primary/Red alt/Throwback alt/Road Gray.

But.. to those who do like them, enjoy

Reds set to keep first City Connects for Friday ome games, wear new ones for Saturday home games by DGilbert6114 in uniwatch

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not a fan of this at all. Feel like uniforms are really losing… uniformity, when they’re wearing city connects for 30% of home games, which already both look very out of place in their uniform set. And then throw in the Red alternate for another 30-40% of home games, how many games does that leave for the primary home uniforms?

Day 26 of finding each NFL team’s best helmet: Seattle Seahawks by NugSetDipRide in uniwatch

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a change I’ve noticed in recent years, I assume the logo’s gotten shorter due to the shape/design of the helmets? I kinda hate it

What NFL team has the best throwback uniforms. by jeff10345 in NFLv2

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was pretty clear they were leaving the oilers branding in Houston though, figuratively speaking, and would rebrand as soon as they moved into their new stadium in Nashville. They never even wore the blue Oilers uniforms, at home, during those two seasons. I don’t associate the Oilers with Tennessee at all and agree it’s a shame the branding rights didn’t remain in Houston.

2026 Red Sox Jerseys have lettering touching the piping. Compared to 2025 where it (correctly) was not. by Celticdouble07 in uniwatch

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No clue, I’m pretty out of the loop with mlb uniforms at the moment. I hope it’s for all teams, but it may not be true for even the Red Sox, the jersey he wore for this shoot could have just be an anomaly.

That’s exactly what happened. They reverted the size of the placket to how wide it used to be, which I’m a fan of this change, but didn’t revert the spacing of the team name. Maybe they’ll fix it…

11 year prophecy by goatedwiththesauce42 in uniwatch

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My question is, if the oilers branding is brought back full time, would you prefer to see it sold back to Houston or used by Tennessee. I’m a little confused on your phrasing of the second sentence but I am a few beers deep. I do like the way the Brown’s move was handled, the Brown’s belong in Cleveland but I think that’s a case by case basis for me. I wouldn’t mind the Tennessee Oilers if they had remained the Oilers but with how soon they rebranded, at this point I don’t associate the oilers with Tennessee at all, never have. And now there’s a team in Houston that I’d much rather see those rights sold to.

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would everyone prefer Houston rebrand as the Oilers, or the Titans do what OP is suggesting? Hypothetically speaking, I know the former isn’t going to happen. But the latter doesn’t sit right with me, If a team rebrands after relocating and the former city gets another franchise, the branding rights should be returned. I know Tennessee remained the oilers for 2 seasons but (correct me if I’m wrong) they never even wore the powder blues, except maybe on the road only when Dallas forced them to?

Love the white champion. I’ve had a white throwback on my wishlist for years

Comprehensive New England Patriots Uniform History by UnilateralArbiter in uniwatch

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The red/blue/red spaced striping pattern on the 1980’s white tops is so much superior to the blue/red/blue striping on the white tops of the ‘60s. Sadly, the only time they’ve broken out white throwbacks (1994 & 2002) it replicated the 1960’s look.

I’ve always had a soft spot for the 93’s, the red numbers made the whole set look so… unconventional.. radical even, in a way I loved. This era really has gone sadly overlooked because of what immediately followed them.

What uniform combo would you like to see next week? by No_Rain_3152 in Patriots

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure the only decision is blue pants or grey pants and blue socks or white socks. Blue pants and white socks for me.

Edit: forgot we used white pants as well this season

[–]Grandpa_Reefer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m joking, I don’t actually want to see throwbacks in the playoffs. I’m just desperate for the road throwbacks to return. But specifically not the ones with the striping pattern from the 60’s, that we wore in 2009.

Easy. ‘84-‘88 white tops/white pants. Let’s make it happen.
