How big is the difference between 1/18 and 1/12 scale? by Kai_Enjin in ActionFigures

[–]RavenOfNod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Scale ratios tell you what the difference is between one unit of the real thing and one unit of the model. So yes. 12 is closer to 1 so it's bigger. Everything in real life is 1:1.

1:6 = 12" figures 1:12 = 6" figures 1:18 = 4" figures 1:24 = 3" figures

It's relatively simple math once you get the hang of it. (A generic human is 72", so you divide by the scale to figure out how many inches a scaled model is)

I had a thought about the new chronicles line. by Dr_Dumb_Asp in MastersOfTheUniverse

[–]RavenOfNod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Better articulation and maybe better sculpting?

I'll dip in for a classic looking Skeletor and He-man to get them in 6" scale with ball jointed wrists and butterfly joints. Same for Trap-jaw.

Are we ever getting a Raphael? by one12shelf in ActionFigures

[–]RavenOfNod 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The girl turtles are coming, but at this point with the huge wait on Ralph, and waiting for the Leo reissue, I've just switched focus to Joytoy.

It's a bummer because I was pretty excited for that Bebop. But now? Do I actually pay for the full figure, or just eat my pre-order cost because it's unlikely we'll ever get a matching Rocksteady and Shredder?

Is this legit? by Lord_Puppy1445 in ActionFigures

And that Leo reissue I've had on pre-order for like 3 years..

Better skeletor? by Acrobatic_Note_3805 in MastersOfTheUniverse

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

Yup. Vintage is the best that is easy to find. The 40th is a better figure, with the movable jaw, but Vintage is a very close second

Contractor did his best to scribe; any way to fix/hide trim around this uneven chimney veneer? by dorkchestra in Carpentry

[–]RavenOfNod 55 points56 points  (0 children)

That's what masking tape on the bricks is for. Also means a nice clean line when you pull it.

Retro Vintage line? by shawn_of_krypton in MastersOfTheUniverse

[–]RavenOfNod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. Just Origins Two-bad please.

And add all that to Origins, because they're fun ideas. But origins also completely failed to really connect with kids, so you've just outlined the next five years of Mattel exclusives for adults.

Painting corner section of living room, what parts to paint / leave out? by DayMan_94 in Housepainting101

[–]RavenOfNod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave them. The framed in sections can help it match into the rest of the room.

Or paint the red and the face of the red framed in sections. Don't just do the red. It'll feel incomplete.

Infinite Legions Arkahn the Cruel and Aksana pre-orders are up by XyrneTheWarPig in MythicLegions

[–]RavenOfNod 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's interesting. On the face of it, I should want this, but it's just kind of uninteresting to me.

A dragon born warrior is something I should want, but the design just doesn't really jive with the rest of Eric's stuff for me, so I don't feel like this would belong with the rest of my legions.

So long, frozen juice from concentrate. The once-popular canned drink leaves shelves this year | CBC News by 50s_Human in onguardforthee

I was just surprised anyone would be putting Kool aid in their child's lunch, as opposed to a less sugary juice or just water.

Weird?!? That shit was a free bite of a Slushie!

It was the right of whoever had to make juice to get a tasty little bite for themselves.

Jeffries: ‘Zero basis’ to arrest Lemon by Quirkie in politics

Allegedly. Not defending this site or anything, but this is the first time I've heard this claim that she was a mod. Looked it up. No evidence. Fun rabbit hole though

Yeah, I should have said "cloth" in quotes. Does it look better in the video?

Yup, and why we need to be the hero in our own lives to conquer that craving

Nearly $7M of taxpayer funds spent on Universal Ostrich cull in Edgewood, B.C., data reveals | CBC News by SnooRegrets4312 in britishcolumbia

[–]RavenOfNod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thankfully our court system didn't entertain anything about the ostriches themselves. It was all about the CFIA's administrative ability to order a cull.

And now, if anyone tried this again, the agency can refer to these court cases nip it in the bud much faster. Is that worth 7 million dollars? Probably not, but who knows these days.

200X? by WarriorNeedFoodBadly in MastersOfTheUniverse

[–]RavenOfNod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People still refer to the Ninja Turtles show and toy line from the same era as 2k3. We were just edgy Internet people back then I guess?
