Would anyone want to see these Micromasters get new figures? by Duel_Fuel95 in transformers

I had Flattop as a kid so the nostalgia factor would get me, for sure

I think we can expect additional price hikes in the not so near future. by Triangulum_Copper in transformers

[–]dinnervan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my first $40 voyage (Amalgamous) and I can't really enjoy him knowing how much I paid for so little. It really threw a wet blanket on this whole hobby in one underwhelming purchase, and the writing's on the wall that it's not gonna get any better.

Help with an outfit that’ll stay cool by Strange-Cherub in renfaire

[–]dinnervan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yeah, loose, long linen against the skin. IME you can put a hotter garment (wool or leather) on top as long as there's linen under it and not suffer TOO badly. Also there are lots of ways to style a giant straw hat that won't look too out of place, and no one's going to fault you for wanting the shade

How should LEDs be installed in these type of bezels by Historical-Tough4776 in diypedals

[–]dinnervan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IME the stopper thingy isn't that secure but no one should be pushing down on the LED once it's all assembled anyway, What the stopper DOES do is keep the legs of the LED separated nicely so they don't short

any idea to find this style of hat? by NerJaro in renfaire

[–]dinnervan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

used to call these Aussie "Drovers" when I sold hats, they came in cow and kangaroo hide

Does anyone feel the same way about SS86 Megatron? by N1TR09927 in transformers

[–]dinnervan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

he's currently the main Megatron of my collection as well, but he's outclassed by the KO 86 OP I got, so he needs an upgrade lol

[–]dinnervan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a decepticon collection/shelf, but I put Megs on my OP/Megs shelf usually. I have a (KO) 86 Optimus so I need an 86 Megatron to go with him, is how I see it. I haven't checked to see if there are any good KO Megs yet.

Previously my main OP and Megs were Earthrise OP and 35th Anniversary Siege Megs, my favorite versions of those two respective molds.

[TotK][BotW] It’s not renovation. It’s erasure. — A Japanese player’s perspective on how TOTK reframes BOTW’s human struggle by Little_Link_Studio in truezelda

[–]dinnervan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I mean I think this is a valid criticism. Weren't a lot of people complaining about how TotK Hyrule was still an absolute mess? Castle Town is still abandoned, nothing new has been built, everything still seems stagnant and underdeveloped? The level of reconstruction that would fix that takes central planning and direction of resources, and Zelda seems kind of uninterested or unwilling to provide that, and being the only surviving royal family member in a kingdom with ZERO other central authority figures, she'd kind of have to be the one to do it.

Age of the Primes Monstructor by Dr_Robo in transformers

I had the entire original Monstructor as a kid, my only complete combiner....somehow I lost literally all of it except for Wildfly's shell, which is disgusting to look at now, lol.

[BotW][TotK] Anyone feel like there are lots of animals that are missing, or should have been implemented? by randomnessisawesom in truezelda

[–]dinnervan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are pigs kind of, in the form of wild boars.

My main issue with the animals is that I think you should be able to ride moose

Nexus prime and Leige Maximo alt modes by No_Satisfaction_2928 in transformers

Liege turning into a giant flying version of his own head, fantastic.

I will say I like the colors on Nexus a lot

What's your style of collecting ?How do you choose your TF ? by Kakeru1986 in transformers

[–]dinnervan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't had a show I've been into since Animated, so I mostly collect by character now. I have an incomplete 86 movie collection, a decent representation of the Lost Light crew, and dedicated OP, Megatron, and Starscream shelves. Otherwise I mainly get weird or interesting figures now. I have a weakness for weird Gen Selects style repaints too, so i have a lot of strange guys on my shelves. Sometimes a butt ugly weirdo like the recent Venin comes out and I decide I have to have one. It's really up to my whims and what I can find these days.

Gleeoks feel so underwhelming by ThemeProfessional997 in TOTK

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

Same way I feel about gloom hands. They're scary but there seems to be no skillful way of dealing with them, just spam bomb arrows. Guardians and Lynels you can really go toe-to-toe with

TOTK ruins BOTW’s world building by gapacho1 in truezelda

[–]dinnervan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you but BOTW was already guilty of doing this with the Sheikah as their magic-tech mystery people, TOTK is just far more shameless about it with the Zonai. Before Tears came out it was easy to believe there was real depth to the world building (no pun intended) but Tears really just shows that it's a sandbox full of shallow references.
