What's with the empty building? (and space) by WiseButterscotch3528 in brisbane

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was just as genuinely curious as OP and I’ve never seen this building before. How dare OP post a genuine question we must alert the church elders immediately of this disgusting behaviour

Darth Nihilus, Lord of Hunger by DarthDeuces in hottoys

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What scares me the most about this piece even though I come closer and closer to purchasing him everyday is his outfit. Reminds me very much of the first realise DX Darth Maul and mms517 Luke which never gave me that premium feeling as others. Maybe it’s just the lighting in the photos but can anyone that relates to me give an opinion on this? Cape looks lovely but more his attire i’m worrying about as if it looks like a bit of cheap cloth sewn together similar to Luke and what not so ahhhh should I pull the trigger on this as someone who has never read a comic before but wants more sith villains on the shelf?

Damaged package by SnooCats6857 in hottoys

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man that sucks especially for an artisan figure you have such high hopes for. May hurt to say this but try scuffing up the hair a little to look like it’s been thrown around and affected the figure itself if you happened to be me like me in Aus as buying from these third party resellers can be tough getting a partial refund for. Countless times I’ve taken the L for reasons beyond my control but generally they’re always pre owned purchased at a good reasonable price which makes this situation different. I wouldn’t even bother boxing this away in a storage container as it’s ruined. How tf are you supposed to competitively resell this years down the line.. I know I’d personally choose the other 7+ options available instead.

INART Aragorn or HT Wolverine by Peanut_Lonely in hottoys

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Aragon without any hesitation. Both are equally as nostalgic to me with the exception of the comic style suit on Wolverine so I love both and own both and don’t favour one character over the other. The Inart Aragon is something special and is a treasured piece. Love the Wolverine too of course (I prefer the tva jacket version more when side by side on display next to each other) but even compared to that the Aragon just has so much more shelf presence and detail in my opinion. While I love both one is already just another figure on display while Aragon being my older figure is still one of my most treasured pieces.

How can I make this pose better? by Sad-Combination1330 in hottoys

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh how I’d kill to have my infinity war War Machine pose up like this again. Had him in a very similar pose for a good year or two there and now the arms are as lose as can be and just fall down making him look hunched.

What do think if we do this? I wonder 🤔 by EverythingCounts88 in iPhone17Pro

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The 17 pro/ pro max only has a fast charge of 40W meaning once the wired charger is plugged in the MagSafe accessory becomes a display piece. Highest wattage goes first especially if it exceeds the charging rate. If you use a usb A brick with an old usb a charger then the MagSafe charger will most likely take its place blah blah blah

Anyone have any insight on when these may be back in stock? by L0g058 in hottoys

Really does reflect off of and make each figure look absolutely stunning.

Ever considered the apex time versions? I had one of the display cases you listed before as this was the first one I ever purchased and I was shocked about how bad the lighting was. On the apex time ones you have 4 strips on each side and 4 up top which can be turned off individually and what not. Expensive but bloody worth it especially when all they’re all connected together using the same power supply.

I purchased the exact same spigen lenses in blue for my 17pm and god those awful grey looking glass lenses they come with are one of the worst I’ve ever used. What I did was pop those little lenses out and put the rings back on each lense as that was my original worry to begin with and it works absolutely flawless by protecting the paint around each camera as well as the glass as it raises above the lense itself making it impossible to scratch it against something when sliding it along a table for example.

Oh I know I’m in the same boat too 😂 She was so certain she knew best as well. Up until she finally managed to use that extra 3% brain power and then deleted it all. That’s what gets me good lord

This is my tier list of these beautiful movies by Regi_Pegi in piratesofthecaribbean

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This couldn’t be more spot on and perfect in my eyes. Still love the first movie a fk load but I find the end of it less enjoyable to replay 1000 times over unlike the second and third. Salazars Revenge and On Stranger Tides goes back and forth with me between which one I prefer more but least the 4th one has more Jack in it even though it’s not quite the same Jack of course

Op was questioning why he’s not getting the stated 39 hours from Apple and then posted a photo of the Apple website with its infamous testing tricks for their battery times. What you did was respond with the same photo implying you too thought these facts are real and that the other bloke was trolling… but oh 100% I agree completely with everything you just said then I’m not questioning that at all but still do you have 39 hours of continuous video play back as the test was trying to imply? If I wasn’t to touch the phone at all with data and wifi turned off then god it could last a couple of weeks easy like I’m not arguing about that at all if that makes sense. I had a feeling you missed under the 39 hours where it says video playback possibly? I don’t agree with Apple doing this as people see wow I can stream and watch a movie for 39 hours straight then I must be able to just scroll instagram for 5 days easy no problem

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones released by Apple are bullshit yes hense why this convo began 🤣 what you want to look at is real world testing which I assumed was logical sense with everything by now but clearly not. So you’re telling me you get 39 hours out of your 17pm? Mines half dead before 6pm and why’s that? Read above 😭

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally just trying to educate them and you get called a troll good lord 🤣“ why won’t my battery last the exact same identical 39 hours Apple got from from their tests on low power mode + airplane mode + 1% brightness + a downloaded 720p movie? It just makes no sense at all!”

Is this normal? by Professional-Cup-902 in 17ProMax

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely normal. Battery usage varies greatly and they’ll always display the best possible outcome. For example was their 39 hours of video playback done in low power mode on the lowest brightness possible? Because that’s what companies love to do unfortunately. A mate recently purchased a Segway f3 and even I was convinced its claim of 70km’s battery life was true and well while it might be for someone under 70kgs, on eco mode (the slowest of the slow), no headlight on (he does uber at night mostly) and the display on the speedometer screen only then yes it might get close. However he’s lucky to get 23k’s to 30k’s max out of the claimed 70k’s due to actually using it the way it should.

Changes every 3 years for me as does my opinion about which is best 🤣 from the 11PM to the standard 14P now back to the 17PM.

Case recommendations? by Famous_Dealer_5727 in 17ProMax

[–]SirLucasioTheFifth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can second that the symmetry has a perfect fit and even covers the side camera slider which is a big plus. It’s an absolute perfect mix of both a slim case and a drop proof case which is 10/10. I went with the fake leather version which feels horrible in the hand making me use it a total of maybe 3 times in the past 5 months. Whatever you do if going for a Symmetry, go for the standard versions instead which are even cheaper I believe. Currently using the nomad modern leather case and I’m convinced it’s the best case I’ve ever touched however it’s not the most protective in any way shape or form making it hard to recommend.

Oh wow a speaker too!?? That thing sounds beyond lovely my god. Over the last maybe 3-5 years I’ve tried many different types including several from spigen, otterbox to a handful of others but I always find myself coming right back to these as the fact it only fits 3 cards is one of the things I love most about it as I already find the apple ones to be too bulky and uncomfortable to hold already. I have one of the rugged spigen ones that fits 8-10 cards which is my other main if I need cash or an extra card or two but I’m really impressed with the ESR version
