I was just happy to see animation that was not so halfa$$ed but fine and detailed and the good guy actually punched badguys. I was stoked to see this version I was a fan of the original as a kid and I'm a fan as an adult still I can't wait for the new figures to come out now.

I completely second that on both accounts. Never watched the original cartoon, but liked the update. As for MOTU I will forever await a 3rd season and beyond, that I will never have.

Not sure if I'm "welcomed back" after an incident a long long time ago, but I find myself strolling past this site once again. I have to say, customizers these days are still making beyond belief customs that look pro. Hopefully I'll stop by more often if it's cool with everyone, but keep up the great work guys!...[See More]

favorite game character in Off Topic by Cosmic Fantasy Customs   
Thursday, August 11, 2011
   [Edit]
just curious of who is everyones favorite game character (you can have more than one if need be, trust me I need it). I really love Link, Samus, Mega Man and all the Final Fantasy characters released to america up to 7, all chrono trigger characters and a new contender is valkyrie profile characters (not as much story as there could have been, but great all the same).

I kinda think of fighting games a bit differently so for fighting games all the marvel vs capcom characters, scorpion, sub-zero, ryu, sagat, cammy, chun-li, not played the dc/mortal kombat game, but any of the dc characters also....[See More]

awesome list. I forgot to mention the phantasy star game characters (will include 4 even though I have not played it) 1-4 and the tenchu characters, still I have not played past the 1st game (ninjas rule), ryu from ninja gaiden's from nes, contra twins. I like master chief, kratos and the heroine from heavenly sword (not played it either), but they are nice and not as high up the totem. Also have to include the turtles and battle toads (I liked TMNT cartoon, but the figs and games were cooler).

will be adding more, can't help it. also why no game of cap n. or put him in smash bros (even mega man and others if possible).

Dead Island in Off Topic by Aesthetikz   
Wednesday, September 7, 2011

Got this today and I'm pretty hooked.
It just seems to be really entertaining (To me at least) endlessly running around a Gigantor map finding all kinds of weapons and killing endless zombies (and the occasional crazy human~2 So far!).
I've been playing solo thus far, But if anyone wants to do CO-OP, Hit me up on Xbox under Aesthetikz (I'm lvl18/doing the end of chapter 1 right now)....[See More]

This game is great. I love how hard it is.

And it's really a mixture of Dead Rising and L4D2. Although it is way harder than both.

I want this game or at least to play it. It looks like a fun zombie killing good time .
Yo is it kinda like dead rising 1&2 the play style of those?
I gotta know because it's all sold out here at the walmarts in Hawaii. I think game stop may have it in stock but I never get up early enough to go there damn night job got me working the from dusk till dawn type of hours.
But any input on this game will help thanks ahead of time.
Batman of the Comics vs. Movie Batmen in Off Topic by darklord1967   
Monday, August 22, 2011
   [Edit]
My new good friend here on the realm, Cosmic Fantasy Customs, flatteringly referred to me as "fountain of knowledge" regarding all things Batman.

Well, he is far too generous, I assure you.

However, if I had to, I would probably describe myself as more of an extreme "fountain of opinions" when it comes to the most effective ways (at least for ME) to depict the characters of The Batman mythology (regardless of the medium).

Yes, I am knowledgeable about these characters from my nearly 40 years of reading (mostly) Batman comics, and being exposed to Batman-related merchandising, animations and films. Unfortunately, even I must admit that my “knowledge” can actually get in the way of enjoying interpretations of the cha...[See More]

CHARACTER PORTRAYAL / SCENE STAGING

The movie Batman has entire (silly-looking) scenes where he is chatting it up with Commissioner Gordon on a rooftop (or whatever), instead of just being the MINIMALIST character that he SHOULD be.

THE BATMAN’S METHOD OF OPERATION

I think that screenwriters and filmmakers who depict the Batman as overly high-tech while he is out on the streets (wearing Kevlar armor, using digital laser-guided weapons, driving a darn Sherman Tank, etc.) completely miss the point about how this character really functions as a dual crime fighter: In effect, he is an ominous (no-tech) warrior on the streets / and a high-tech detective in the cave of operations.

Out on the street, The Batman is more about his (no-tech) “gimmick” of being spooky and gothic… an apparition… a shadowy night avenger who may or may not be human and keeps a VERY low-profile. He’s the “urban legend” hero who most Gothamites have never gotten a look at, and wonder if he even truly exists. Only a few know bet ...

THE BATMAN’S COSTUME

For me, I have always found something so pure, clean, and basic about The Batman (and Robin's) classic comic book costumes. The outfits have always beautifully reflected the gothic, swash-buckling heroism, vivid color and extreme circumstance of the comic book world of Gotham City.

Praying mantis in Off Topic by mmdiego   
Thursday, September 8, 2011
   [Edit]
Hey everyone this is a picture of my praying mantis henry who laid some eggs on anti-venom. I let her roam around the house but I was never expecting her to lay eggs because I always thought she was a male due to her small size. So in about 5 months I should have roughly 400 grand kids. Which im very happy about but I really really was goign to customize anti venom. well 5 months gives me plenty of time to come up with some ideas. Thanks for reading and take care everyone

In five months, with Anti-Venom as the presumed daddy, I fear you're going to have 400 mantis hybrid horrors--I'd stock up on shotgun shells if I were you. In all seriousness, that is a weird spot to lay a clutch of eggs, although, to an insect's eyes, I suppose an action figure doesn't register as anything unusual in its environment.

Hahaha, that's funny man, you gotta wonder, why chose there to lay your eggs??, maybe a name change is in order, Henrietta?. Grats though on nearly becoming a grand parent .
Deus Ex: human revolution in Off Topic by somebody1   
Wednesday, September 7, 2011
   [Edit]
Anyone playing this? It's a great cyberpunk game and feel slike you walked into a William Gibson novel, an updated Blade runner world (and there are bladerunner tributes), as well as it has the feel of the 1990s shadowrun SNES game at times. Word of advice. Boost hacking and get the body upgrade to fire round pellets at the enemy as 2 hits of this and the bosses crumble....[See More]

It has some flaws like NPC AI that just stand around and barely react to anything, a horrid lack of ammo even though you're facing soldiers and such and when looting their bodies they have no spare ammo. Oh and the enemies are way overpowering early on in the game.

Recent Marvel Run Themes in Off Topic by RedRebelCustoms

Hey there, has anyone noticed we went from having Hulked Out Heroes to Thored Out Heroes and now from the looks of it we may have Iron Manned Out Heroes. I know everyone and there mother has an armored suit or has been Captain America! We've even seen quite a few take on hulk personas. Not many original Avengers left in the line-up. Are we going to see Reserved Out Heroes next! Just imagime a world full of Squirrel people or even people running around with bows! I mean I have subscriptioms amd I'm a sucker for comics but come on. The writers are writing these great scripts with recycled ideas and very little action. It's all backstory and drama. I can't be the only one feeling like we're being cheated here???...[See More]

Oh and likewise, has anyone noticed the Terminator references on Marvel lately. Both Ultimate Spider-man and X-Factor use the qoute "Come with me if you want to live". LOL. They are recycling actual dialogoue now and not even original dialogue. It's from a movie. Speaking of movies, they are now adding teasers for the Ultimates in the back of Fear Itself. Taking up yet even more pages for a completely seperate reality. It seems like they are pushing Ultimate comics down our throats. Between the movies and cartoons having that feel and the subscriptions titles being cancelled to make room. I was extremely irritated when they stopped the Thunderbolts and retained all the Ultimates. Then they cut Venom?? It's like DC being all Green Lantern and Batman Incorporated. They have to be losing sub ...
