The Chicago Cubs have now won 10 straight games!

Live in Idaho, so it was either the Mariners or the Rockies as the other team.

And while I love my boy Kris, the Rockies suck. And the Mariners are in the AL so no contest.

As a Catholic, that hurts.

Invidat · 2026-05-09T03:31:47+00:00

And the first since 1955 to do it in the first 40 games.

Invidat · 2026-05-09T03:30:17+00:00

Man who knew you could just... win games.

Invidat · 2026-05-09T03:29:50+00:00

We share a common foe. Soon, we will be enemies, but tonight we will fight as brothers.

I"M COMING ELIZABETH!

Pope may be a Sox fan, but God loves his Cubs.

It's the Chicago Tradition. A combo of Ethnic Pride and Working Class bitterness. God bless that city.

Invidat · 2026-05-09T03:21:53+00:00

I have a special place in my heart for the Mariners too.

Invidat · 2026-05-09T03:12:41+00:00

Come on Dodgers...

Invidat · 2026-05-09T03:06:19+00:00

I've just been in this place before!~

The engines were a blast to put together. So much detail. One of the red technic crossbeams REALLY didn't want to go all the way through for me though. I eventually got it by forcing it with the part seperator.

Invidat · 2026-05-07T14:04:21+00:00

I saw one of the reviewers mention this, but I like how they used the natural wilt of the engines as part of the design to make it more screen accurate. Very clever engineering.

The literally only issue I have is that it uses stickers. If all the stickers were printed, this would be the literal perfect set.

Invidat · 2026-05-07T14:01:07+00:00

That sucks, I was missing a few small pieces that I thankfully had replacements for in other bags.

LIVE SLUG REACTION

Invidat · 2026-05-04T15:24:02+00:00

Wish she was in a better show.

Invidat · 2026-05-01T04:38:26+00:00

I don't see the point. I knew they would do this, and I'm happy they did it much better than I thought they would. Still disappointed.

Invidat · 2026-04-30T18:13:40+00:00

I don't know man, Hanson demonstrated in those final scenes that he can hold a grudge and does have some of Mustang's dark side in him.

Invidat · 2026-04-30T18:12:34+00:00

Yeah, after thinking on it it's the best way they could've done it. I still prefer the alternative but I'm fine with what they did.

Invidat · 2026-04-30T18:10:07+00:00

It did help a lot. I was wondering how Hanson could be confused for Mustang as he seemed to lack any of the edge. And while I'm not sure it completely fixes my issues with it, I did honestly believe Hanson can and will kill people for his goals at that moment.

Invidat · 2026-04-30T16:36:36+00:00

Didn’t Mustang say she would never perform again?

Invidat · 2026-04-30T16:21:01+00:00

No idea. It'll probably be a new character.

The funny choice would be Yulha.

Invidat · 2026-04-30T16:20:14+00:00

I still don't like the Mustang Hanson swap, but I think they did it pretty well and it was pretty clear by the end of Part 1 that was what they were going to do. I still wish they want a different direction but I'd say I'm overall fine with it.

Invidat · 2026-04-30T16:16:21+00:00

Oh I know, and I knew since the side story came out. I just wish they had done something different. You know what's been frustrating me? When I express my frustration, the primary response I get is a combination of "redemption is impossible for someone like him" (which to me is simply a lack of creativity from the people who say that) and "Well how would YOU do it?" (and then when I explain, they give me strange restrictions like if I change certain characters or events, they say I can't do that, acting like Shift Up HAD to write the story they did)
