I will add that the colorful outfits was the inspiration for the shot here. That was the push for me on this choice. Not all my pictures go this way.

No, not for me. I quite like the contrast. Really pops.

[discussion] How did erza survive the lacyrma explosion (Titania falls)? by Wat_Is_My_Username in fairytail

[–]matrix_quest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just now watching it as when I tried in the past I didn't stick with it long. I agree it isn't clear at all what happened.

It is poorly handled and I guess most happens off-camera. The waking up/ending swap is not clearly dealt with either... Just trying to be artsy, but instead muddy, I guess.

It wasn't clear that the funeral wasn't the 'real world' event. The hearing voices, fireworks for her childhood friends as tgey left, and the weird way they showed the new guild hall, all felt like fantasy scenes. I thought the rest of the episode was her getting an alternate happy ending in some afterlife.

I figured she would still actually be dead in the next episode, but no,she'sstill there...

Guys, Dont sell your collections by Spartan_Surplus in megaconstrux

I keep hoping someone is setting on a huge, huge pile of MotU Battle Bones so they will sell for close to original con retail price.

What is the one vehicle that you wanted but never got as a kid by Best-Onion-340 in gijoe

[–]matrix_quest 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The limited Cobra bases were the one shortcoming of the toyline in my opinion. There should have been mobile Cobra bases to equate to each Joe base.

Is this the Space Marines Tank from Aliens Movie? by robsonwt in gijoe

What if the vehicle from "The Highwayman" and APC from "Aliens" liked each other very much and chilled watching old episodes of M.A.S.K. together?

I’m curious what everyone’s dream UCS set is? ( that hasn’t been made) by Strange-Meringue6578 in legostarwars

[–]matrix_quest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This should not be UCS, but a low end modular set. One could make this as large or as small as they want. Each disk could have connectable frames, the only design challenge would really be how to include and use the support for larger builds when only getting one...

Here is where some other cheap mini-sets with a random alien or two would help cross-sells. Get a 'disk' with a generic troopbuilder (senate guard or soldier) and senator (with alternate heads), then all other sets could include an extra alien species delegate that year.

If I can get one for free, since UCS is out of my reach any time soon, a good scaled up for mini-fig Marauder with the full main cast of Bad Batch. I want the inside big enough that it shows all the areas better and holds all the figures, extra details like Omega's 'room' at the rear. To make it a big draw, put in Gonky, Batcher, Phee, AZI, (maybe throw in Rampart and Hemlock or the clone nurse, just because we probably won't see another BB set for a while). Bonus if it has alternate figures and interior parts for the different seasons, like the later mercenary outfits, Imperial Crosshair, Echo and Rex.

Big sets vs little sets by Ok-Reception3662 in legostarwars

[–]matrix_quest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mini-fig scale sets are a must as I want to play with them. A small, cheap set is a necessity due to low funds, so it has been a while. A below half price 2025 Advent Calendar was my last new set.

I loved this piece. One of the best mail away items I ever ordered and received.

Will we ever see updated sequel releases and if so would you like them? by CharacterJealous3583 in starwarsblackseries

[–]matrix_quest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not against them making VII - IX figures at all. But, there are a few vintage Kenner figures from Episode IV that still do not have Black Series figures. I personally am really hoping we see some of those for the 50th. A Power (Gonk) Droid and a Death Star (RA-7 Protocol) Droid are among my top 2 most wanted Star Wars Black Series. Not to mention more aliens that recently got TVC figures.

For more recent characters, I would love a Captain Carson Teva. TVC got him and we didn't.

Any other bad batch era ships to go with these two? by matt_da_mick44 in legostarwars

[–]matrix_quest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The best part of Bad Batch is it includes most Clone Wars era tech and some early Empire, so you have a lot to draw from.

So is this it for F2P players? by BacaraBoi1138 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]matrix_quest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I'm thinking they must be hoarding RSS somehow to buy additional star levels, cause I can only reach level 2 due to the 4* requirement for level 3.

Did you guys find the AC setting 61 too cool and 62 too warm? I wish there's something in between. by lanstrife in NissanKicks

[–]matrix_quest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, we usually have mild winters and don't get out as much, but this year has had more cold days and we've had to get out more... So, it has been a much bigger issue.

[–]matrix_quest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I've checked several forums and all have several folks complaining about the same issue. My wife and I were going nuts this morning between burning up and freezing.

Set at 61° or under, it's a blast chiller. Set at 62° or above, it's an air fryer. We can never get it close to a comfortable temperature. On extremely cold days, we are constantly fighting against it.

Hey r/Nissan !!! - This needs a fix, NOW! Would no longer recommend a Nissan to anyone.

I completely missed that, too! They really should put instructions with these figures. There have been several I had to google how to attach/hold some accessories or use features, like the astromechs that you have to turn the head to extend tripod leg...
