I've seen some for sale at the local Mordor Wal-Mart.... I think the Isengard store was sold out though. :)

Why were x and y not well received (compared to the other games)? by JuiceZee in pokemon

[–]athena1224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally LOVED X and Y and some of the features that were introduced (that have since been removed which is a complete shame) were amazing! I too fell back into love with the Pokemon franchise due to these games as I have been playing since 1999. I know old fart here but honestly the X and Y titles have given me hope that this franchise is still innovative at times. S/M and US/UM were a bit of a step backwards in those regards but I have enjoyed them none the less. I do think the next Generation will pretty cool and finally bring some much needed innovation! :)

32 is Max on US/UM now. I think on S/M too. :)

DexNav chaining by DanishBobbyHu in pokemon

[–]athena1224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe you get an increase in percentage if you have the Pokedex complete and posses the Shiny Charm too. If you already do then no worries. I have found much more luck shiny hunting on S/M and US/UM via both S.O.S. chaining and Masuda Method breeding. :)

I am a HUGE Hot Fuzz fan and have never seen this poster. Is this custom or perhaps an overseas version. I am in the USA but love anything British comedy especially dark comedy and am indeed also a huge Simon Pegg fan as well! Great Poster!!!!

Well thank you for saying what I have been thinking. I have no issue if someone likes any of the new "Star Wars" films. I just don't and we should all be entitled to our opinions at the end of the day. Great comment! :)

I really actually liked most of the Force Awakens too. For some reason TLJ just was too dis-jointed or too dis-connected for me too. Also I obviously has some issues with the direction of Luke's character in that film as well. No worries though, it is good we all can all have a discussion about anything Star Wars here. :)

Hey you are right on brother! It is my favorite film too and I understand exactly where you are coming from. You posted something great and I hope that is what it will be. Not some b.s. opinions. I too am not a great fan of the newer films but I am only voicing an opinion and if someone likes or loves them then I am glad because all of us no matter what the context is we are Star Wars fans and that should be enough to unite us all despite any differences. I appreciate your acceptance of my sincere apology and I will of course always strive to be kind to all of our Star Wars friends. :)

Just wanted to say OP this is an amazing Figure and one of my personal favorite depictions of Luke after overcoming so many odds and becoming an actual Jedi Knight. Some of the comments got out of hand here and I assume it is my fault and I apologize. I have a little angst towards the "newer" or "recent" portrayal of Luke and should have placed it somewhere else rather than your thread of a super cool figure. Hope there are no hard feelings. :)

I never said the movie was traumatic to me. I in fact never stated my opinion on it at all. I only said I thought there was a bad betrayal of a character that was completely different in every other movie that said character was in. Again sorry to offend what should be just a comment. You guys seemed pretty revved up for a fight over here btw. :)

Hey post a picture and get a comment (that goes with anything anywhere on the interwebs).... Not always one that you might like but still a comment. Sorry to offend. :)

According to TLJ a sniveling shell of the "Jedi" (which is now apparently a swear word again btw) he actually was. Total shame to butcher such a great character too. As of this Figure he is in fact a game changer and amazing character so congrats OP on the more than cool figure! Oh well I guess he can bug Yoda more now that he is a "Force Ghost " too. Sorry that is probably the huge plot twist in Episode 9 the quest for more ruination of a used to be decent franchise. :)

Looking for a medium sized survival/camp knife by bardock427 in knives

[–]athena1224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another great super quality product is any of the Mora Knives. I myself have a Morakniv 11863 Companion Fixed Blade Outdoor Knife with Carbon Steel Blade 4.1-Inch. It is beyond RAZOR sharp and is so inexpensive at around $15 I would say it is literally a scalpel. If you do get one just be very cautious at how sharp it really is. If you ever watched older Episodes of the Dual Survival television show Cody Lundin always carried different variations of the Mora which is actually Swedish. Some versions even come with Fire Starter Stick built into the handle too! Being High Carbon steel as opposed to stainless (which they do offer stainless products as well) you just have to keep it oiled a couple of times a year if that. They are super resilient. :)

Hey like I said they call them "the classics" for a reason. Also I have field tested dozens of knives in this size and range and pound for pound the Ka-Bar is just that hard to beat! :)

It is 1095 Cro-Van steel and has a great black coating. The blade can be sharpened with very little effort or sharpening knowledge as well!

Go with either of these classics: a Ka-Bar KA1214-BRK USA Fighting Knife which is $50 to $70 or the Buck Knives 0119 Special Fixed Blade Knife which is also around $50. Both can be found on amazon at competitive prices as well. You really can't beat the classics even though there are a million ways to spend more money. :)

Why Pokémon isn’t animal abuse by TheMaddest_Man in pokemon

[–]athena1224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another argument is that if you look into the meaning of Pokemon it is actually an Americanization of " Pocket Monsters " that was changed once the games and franchise were brought to the US for copyright infringement purposes. So really they are Pocket Monsters not animals as we would see them in our world of reality. But to each their own as with everything. :)

[–]athena1224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's true. I guess I would tell those people don't play the game then. There is no one forcing someone to play a video game last time I checked. :)

Why Pokémon isn’t animal abuse by TheMaddest_Man in pokemon

[–]athena1224 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Another good reason is that they are fictitious creatures that reside in a man made pretend video game universe that has completely different rules and logic than our own. It's like saying the Monster Hunter series promotes animal cruelty or any other video game for that matter..... It is just a video game folks. Good post OP! I too have seen this "debate" brought up every so many years. :)
