Ontario / Re: ROC Figures at Walmart

I ended up getting Baroness and Scarlet (in the gray cammo) since they were 5 bucks. But their head sculpts were so terrible that I ended up taking the head off the blue costume Baroness and giving it to the movie one. I also painted the green sunglasses black.Then, since I had an extra Lady Jaye with a hat I took her head and put it on Scarlet's body. I think they look a lot better now.

Is this the TFCon guys doing this? Not sure who Master Collector is I guess. I'm not up on Convention politics.

General Joe Talk / Re: Saw the movie

I wasn't bothered by the molded mouth really. I'd prefer it not there if given the option but it didn't bug me to see it.

I felt the computer graphics looks a little unfinished and sometimes it bumped me out of the story but it was easy enough to get back in to it. I hope they make toys of the SHARC's because they looked pretty awesome.

I still don't like the Delta 6 suits but the scene was kind of fun regardless and I cheered when Ripcord got hit by the car...I think if I had made the movie I would have given them cool motorbikes instead of the suits. It seems odd to me to see them running after the Cobra SUV. I didn't buy it. But I told myself that I didn't buy the Fatal Fluffies back in the day and I still watch and enjoy that Joe movie anyway. Actually once I put it in that perspective I was able to enjoy movie.

I'm going to see it again this afternoon.

Late last night I wanted to call work and ask how it did. I'll find out when I go in later today anyway. When I left work yesterday it was about 7:30 and we had no sell outs and it wasn't very busy. Unless it rains, we don't expect it to be busy again today. I really liked the movie though and I'm hoping for a sequel. It seems set up for there to be one anyway. If I had kids I would take them to see it.

I went to the midnight showing last night. I am pleased to say that I really enjoyed it and I'll likely go again! This time I'll take my brother who can't stay up for Midnight shows because he works early.

I felt the CG and special effects didn't hold up too well but I was enjoying the movies story so much I didn't care in the end. That's right, I enjoyed the story. I should add that I've been a huge Nay sayer since I heard who the director was and then when I heard Wayans was going to be in it. Then when I saw what Cobra Commander was to look like. (I actually still hate what CC looks like but it didn't stop me from enjoying the rest of the story). I am glad all my fears were proven wrong.

General Joe Talk / Re: Zellers having a sale.
« on: August 07, 2009, 09:39:45 AM »
This is really great!! I wanted the Python Conquest but too cheap to actually get it. And I felt bad that Zellers ordered so many and they'd not sell and then Zellers might not order special things again...

General Joe Talk / Re: What kind of Viper would you be?

I guess I could be a Televiper because I thread projectors? I would love one of those crazy helmets :)

Advanced passes? You're scooping the guy who works at the movie theater? :)

There is a midnight showing on the Thursday. Or rather 12:01am Friday. I'll likely be seeing it then.

General Joe Talk / Re: Is Zellers offering the new ROC merchandise?
« on: July 22, 2009, 08:51:29 PM »
Zellers Brantford pretty much sucks most the time. No RoC toys here.

It's too big for my house and too expensive. I could see kids really digging this. Does it come with Hawk? If so for $100 they could at least get his hands right. That's kinda funny.

Personality wise, I'm like Quick Kick I think. I couldn't do Martial Arts to save my life though.

I think I'd want to be like Flint though. A good leader, jack of all trades, pilot, and dating Lady Jaye.
