The armor mainly, its kinda weird in the midsection, and the Entry Plug System has a part on it that kinda flips up. Other than those two things, its pretty damn cool.

Also, Lack of Accessories, but thats because its an early release compared to the later releases of Units 00-02 (Unit 01 has 5 current releases in this series.)

But its got a unique Progressive Knife holder, which makes it awesome.

So, it lacks extra hands and heads? Or is it just a lack of weapon accessories and it has plenty of hands and heads to go around? How sturdy are the joints? Does it have good balance when posed?

$70 was roughly what I spent on my Graphire. It was cheaper than my brother's Bamboo.

Here's a cheap one. eBay is your friend for stuff on the cheap. That's where I got my tablet.

Watched Godzilla VS King Ghidorah on Sunday. Earlier last week, I watched Watchmen: Ultimate Cut and Godzilla VS Megaguirus.

I use a Wacom Graphire small, and on occasion, a Wacom Bamboo Fun small. They both were bought off eBay, factory-sealed, for a cheap price, so I suggest looking there for one.

Size preference is up to you and how much you're intending to spend. Though, a small tablet can do the same job as a big tablet, I personally see no difference. The active area of my tablet is about 5 inches diagonal, and most of the wear on it is concentrated in a 1.5 x 1.5 inch square. Going by that, it seems that having a huge tablet is just for show, as a small one can do the same job.

Megaman: Megamix Vol. 1 (Well, I ordered it a few days ago and it just got here today.)
Star Wars: Clone Wars Vol. 6 (Likewise.)
Death Star by Michael Reaves and Steve Perry (Got it for my brother as he wanted to read it.)
Rogue Planet by Greg Bear (Curious to see how a hard sci-fi author handles Star Wars.)

That's quite tame compared to the things I've seen.

Oh, the things I've seen...

I have two longboxes, and once I get to reorganizing it again and pushing another section to the second box, I'll prolly need a third. I don't get the super-longboxes, just the fits-nicely-on-a-shelf longboxes.

Indeed. Can't wait for Brightest Day. And hopefully Larfleeze's motto will be revealed. Maybe. Prolly not, as it's not Larfleeze's style to share. But the other stuff... Damn, I'm gonna need another longbox after Brightest Day.

...Now I want to read that. It looks like a hoot.

Anywho, Blackest Night. The ending certainly posed some questions about a certain segment of the Corps...

If you've been to the beach, at some point, you may have collected a mole crab.

Gorgeous shot of the fangs and spinnerets on that orb weaver.

I used to have Bucky O'Hare as my ringtone, until I got a new phone. I've been using a default tone currently, but it makes my dog howl, so I'm gonna change it. Change it by e-mailing a song to my phone and saving it as a ringtone. Oh yeah.

Well actually, I just read a review on io9 and according to Annalee, they intentionally made the dialog cheesy & B-Movie..y. If that's the case, then they indeed got it right. I thought they were actually going for something more mainstream & serious, which it definitely wasn't. I mean, the movie is indeed awful, but it is "fun awful" so you could still enjoy it if you're going into it with a B-Movie attitude.

Interesting... That almost makes me wanna see it. Almost. I plan to be faithful to the original, though, so seeing the remake is not very high on my watch list, if it's even on it at all.
