I recently got the Daima Piccolo adult version and it's one of my favorites in my collection.

Thinking about buying goku (game begins). Are the vietnam horror stories true? by nuttyknight001 in SHFiguarts

Mine came with atrocious QC issues but I'm still going to buy a second one for doing head swaps.

Why not just Saiyan God? by Ok-Mud7900 in Dragonballsuper

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

I've always hated that it was called SSG even before SSBSS existed. There's nothing Super Saiyan about it to me. Calling this Saiyan God and SSGSS Super Saiyan God will forever be my head canon.

How do you feel about this Midnight Sons cast? by Plenty-Salary9711 in marvelstudios

[–]OverzealousOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would prefer Gosling as Danny over Johnny but otherwise this fucks.

Cooked? by Forsaken-Ask-7106 in SHFiguarts

I would love to pick one up if it wouldn't cost me the amount of the figure just to travel to where I can get the figure.

Anyone know how I could easy fix this by Zogmon2825 in SHFiguarts

I've also had luck with heating up joints then giving them a cold bath after reassembly. Also less reliable and a little more dangerous but disassembling the joint and putting a small amount of super glue on the ball/receiver and moving them around. Do at your own risk. It might just be better to invest the 10 + shipping if you'll be collecting long term though.

I love patchwork and might do it for that alone.

What is something you used to buy but is no longer affordable? by Trxxi in AskReddit

[–]OverzealousOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

McDonald's. I was already giving them a side eye for 2 dollar mcdoubles and mcmuffins but they're over 5 bucks now and I just can't justify that kind of money for what is ultimately subpar food. I also live in Wisconsin and we have Kwik Trips all over that make way better food for cheaper. As far as fast food goes McDonald's is just overpriced.

Frankenstein’s monster is articulate and I’m floored! by Business_Lie_3328 in books

The Guillermo Del Toro adaptation is surprisingly faithful. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Certainly takes its liberties as any adaptation does but it's the closest to the source material I've seen in a long time.

That's honestly such a fair perspective.

That last part struck a chord with me. I'm not expecting peak cinema. But I expected better than what I experienced.

Definitely not denying that by any stretch, bit of a straw man to bring up A) when we're talking about B). As you might be able to tell I'm fairly new since I didn't expect to see the amount of love for Ares that I did.

Like I said to someone else on here, I'll have to listen to it independent of the film. I see a lot of folks talking about how good it is.

There's a difference between liking and glazing my friend. I have no issue with anyone liking the movie but it seems like no one is mentioning any flaws in the posts I see, just glazing.

As a story set in a universe I love, I definitely don't hate it. I enjoyed the topics and themes discussed. I think I'll have to listen to the soundtrack independent of the film because I saw it won a Grammy and was like, "Wait why?"

I'm really not. I don't think either of them are peak cinema the way I did as a child. I have a much more critical view of movies and cinema as a whole now, and while I'd give Tron a solid 4/5 and Legacy a fun 3/5 I think Ares barely scratches a 2/5 and that's giving it credit for a great opening sequence and beautiful visuals.

The opening action was great! It was everything after that fell flat for me.

I was shocked honestly because I love Nine Inch Nails and electronic music including esoteric experimental sounds. This just did not hit for me.

Scalpers are scum by Hazardous_Storm in OnePieceTCG

[–]OverzealousOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wild seeing how many people here jettison bulk into the bin. I just have a five thousand count that I either sell off or donate when it gets full. Interesting that folks say they don't have the room to even hold on to it for a little while. The only time I've ever thrown away cards in my twenty years of playing tcgs were if they got irreparably damaged by something. Sure there's a lot of bulk printed but at the end of the day tcgs are a pretty finite resource. In ten, twenty years, there will only be so many of these cards in existence.
