    I regularly watch/listen to this awesome compilation :thumb 

    Yeah, I noticed quite a few sig images, etc.. missing. What's wrong with Photobucket?

    Photobucket is down for maintenance. My sig is on TinyPics which is just offline for whatever reason. Maybe the Russians hacked them !?!

    Imgur is rockin' and a rollin' though.

    Ah, I just assumed it was down as getting the site up kept failing, missed any notice of scheduled maintenance but then I have gotten into the habit of immediately deleting email notices from them as they always seem to be "BUY SOME GODDAMN PRINTS" sales guff.

    Here it is guys, the new Power Rangers movie Megazord has been revealed (in toy form at least).

    1478297816553.jpg

    Yeah, seriously that's what they went with.

    But surely the individual Zords look better though?

    1477670865622.jpg

    Its AoE Grimlock painted red, with the Space Jockey's chair from Alien glued to its back. Reminds me of that Stomp and Chomp Grimlock thing.



    Every time I learn more about this movie, it kills my interest in it just a little more.

    Yeah Photobucket do like to shill their wares lol. I stopped using them when they restricted the size of uploading free images and starting blocking free content after so many views.

    I switched to TinyPics who offer a good service, but are a bit heavy on the ads and pop ups.

    It's hilarious when it comes to Dogtanian. All the American shows have super-elaborate animation the episodes themselves could never live up to, but Dogtanian just went "screw that, here's random clips from the show of characters idly talking while standing stock still."

    Also Albert the Fifth Musketeer was better.

    Isn't that what they always were though? Just guys dressed in cardboard suits?

    Yeah, that's happened to me with Primes and a few others. Which tf was it for you?

    @Collectotron
    Cool, thanks for the pics.


    Also, I just ordered tr Hardhead for approximately £13.50 shipped from Amazon.com. I've given up trying to find him at brick and mortar stores. :(

    @Maz, I hope you're having better luck with your journey now.
    Lmao. This has just reminded me how intrigued I was with Cheetara and April O'Neill (and her low neckline), even at a tender age.

    It's the Botcon Wings of Honor Flak. It's far from being the best toy ever but there's something about it that neither of the general release versions of the mould do for me.

    That image is hilarious. It looks like the gremlin has just slammed into the plane like Raphael did in the latest TMNT film.

    TRU has them on sale???!!!
    Thanks, I'm gonna go there today. I have some money off coupons. :)  Hopefully they still have some deluxes! Are the legends class on sale as well? If I can get Hardhead on sale with money off at TRU, I might try and cancel my Amazon order.:)
