Bionicle Heroes (2006), I want to play it again.

It might be only me, and I'm not sure if the game has aged very well or not, but I would love to have the possibility to play it on my PS4 or PS5. I would pay again to play it as one of those legacy games for PS2.
This particular game had a certain vibe, not only because Bionicle was cool, but also an atmosphere that made me want to replay it a bunch of times back in the day. I think the mist, textures, and the ruins made me want to go explore this world.
The core gameplay is very LEGO game: you collect pieces, and that helps you build tools to progress in the story, plus a bunch of collectibles, even keeping the same humor with the bad guys of the games. But this time it's more of a shooter.
I think it is an Idea they could explore more in the future, but for the time being, give me a port of this on the PlayStation Store, one that I could even get the Platinum for.

They always make masterpieces, so I will go support this movie. Laika always delivers.

(Reposting with better wording and clarifying I'M NOT involved with the studio in any way).

It is not even a hot take or anything. But have you ever stopped to think that the creation of the Laika animations is almost a miracle? As far as I understand, their movies usually do not turn any profit, which is the main incentive for almost every company and CEO nowadays. Despite that, this is basically an incredibly beautiful art project that happens to be related to a millionare that supports his son and his team's creativity (the son of Nike's CEO, I believe). If it were not for that lucky family link, we probably wouldn't be getting such animation masterpieces, which are cinematic history and an incredible art-form exploration.
I really appreciate their job, and the best way for me to show my respect to the studio is to go watch their newest movie, Wildwood, in cinemas, treat it as the masterpiece I know it will be, as Laika always delivers.
In my case, I actually regret not watching their previous movies in cinemas; I always overlooked it, but that won't happen again, as every time I give the opportunity to movies like Kubo or Coraline, I happen to love them.
I am not saying it has to be your favorite movie or studio, but the way I see it, we are just 1 CEO away to stop receveing this pick cinema. Hopefully that won't happen soon, as I haven't experienced any other stop-motion animation that comes even close to what Lika creates.

I myself never had the opportunity to watch one in cinemas before; I always overlooked it, and now I regret it. It won't happen again.

So it has started, my first Blu-ray.

It took me a while to start; I'm currently living outside the States, and finding physical media here has been difficult, almost no stores at all (no Goodwill, no Best Buy, no nothing). So when I saw a good price for A Knight's Tale on Amazon, I got it right away. Me wanting to own this movie in particular was what started all my "research" in physical media, and the reason I was looking into finding stores to "hunt" (only 1 store in the capital and none in my city, btw).

Hear me out...

I just used the body of Motu Gwildor, and is giving serious Tom Bombadil. It is shorter than other ML dwarves, but I actually don't mind at all. I would actually like to see more sizes of dwarves, as some times they are too tall. Plus, he has an interesting body shape, a proper belly made of beer and mining.

Fyi, you'll need sticky tack as the neck peg is too small for the ML type socket. Mine is just resting there.

Give my boy SORA an Armor for KH 4.

I would love to finally get to see my boy Sora getting actual armor in the Upcoming Kingdom Hearts game. The armor has been something so cool since they were first introduced, and yet, basically haven't been used in the saga, not even as a skin or something. I have always wanted to play in armor.

I am here to say that I will love a PS4 physical copy (disc) of Fez.

I am here to say that I will love a PS4 physical copy (disc) of Fez. I would love to REALLY own it, as I consider it art.
Since I saw it for the first time, the worldbuilding, the aesthetic, and the creativity left an impression on my mind YEARS ago, and a physical copy would allow me to revisit this world in the future for when I want to replay the game or lend it to my friends; plus, I don't want to be dependent on a digital store.
So I guess this post is just to show interest and be "vocal" about it.
I wish they could give us the option to choose between a regular release and another super collector's edition; that would be cool. Especially if you can select between consoles, like having the physical copy for Nintendo Switch, PS4, or PC, as they do at "Limited Run Games"

Emmm... why are my Warcraft Neca figures Sweating?

Is it happening to you guys? Apparently the brown painted parts of my Warcraft figures by Neca are secreting some kind of sticky "sweat". I have a bunch of figures in the same display, but it is only happening to my Thrall and Arthas figures. Is this toxic? Like how toxic? Can I fix it or it will continue doing so ? Is this a QC issue?

It's not happening to my Sylvanas figure though, and she is on the same display.

Should I play Gravity Rush 2 without playing Gravity Rush 1 ?

I own a copy of Gravity Rush 2. I got it because I always found the gameplay of GR very interesting, but I bever played the first one. I know I could just watch a YouTube video doing a summary or explaining the lore, so the history is not a big deal in that sense. I just want to make sure that if I play the second one, then I will never enjoy the first one. Maybe because the new gameplay is better, or the graphics are too different, as things like that have happened to me before. So I want to know if I can just play the Second game first, and I am not missing anything if I am skipping the first one, or if it's totally worth getting the first one and actually playing it before the second.

This is the kind of Dwarf I want. A Crafter that can fight.

This is the kind of Dwarf I want. The photoshopped colors are not perfect, but I was imagining gold accents, some actual color (could be blue, green, etc), and some metal because they like it, but not a full heavy armor because they like to be comfortable to dig. And after God of War, I really believe the Nordic aesthetic of some Viking parts fits dwarves as well.

What other parts combo do you think would make the Dwarf we didn't receive in this recent wave? Not necessarily an army builder 100%, just an upcoming one.

I also wanted to add the Ganesha torso, but I don't think the proportions will make it for a dwarf.

For those wondering about the Xylernian Guard Shield and the Reinforcement 3 Tunic.

>For those that as me, are wondering about the Xylernian Guard Shield look on a knight wearing the new Xylona's Flock Reinforcement 3 Tunic.
I cannot be sure how the actual metal color of the Xylernian Guard's helmet and the Valiant Knight 2 will pare together, but I think the overall shape will give you an idea, as customizing that should be easy if they do not match perfectly.
I was a little worried about the color of the shiel in comparison with the tones of the tunic, but I think they work very good togheter.

I'm kind of hurt that there is no Dwarf in this Reinforcements wave lol

I'm kind of hurt that there is no Dwarf in this wave lol. Hopefully, they will give us at some point this year a new basic dwarf builder with all the new updated pieces in their catalog. Not a shiny Con-exclusive, nor a 2-pack, nor a kickstater exclusive, just a simple but cool armored dwarf builder for $30 bucks.

If you have to choose 5 movies to be the archivist for, which ones would you pick?

Imagine there is going to be a full worldwide blackout, and a lot of movies will become lost media, so in order to prevent that, you will have the responsibility to pick 5 movies in physical format and become their custodian, their guardian, the archivist.

Now, the idea is not to overcomplicate stuff, thinking there will be a coordinated effort in this imaginary scenario, the exercise is just to check your picks, and those picks might not be your favorite movies. Maybe you choose 5 comfort movies that you repeat even more than your favorite movies. In my case, I have only watched my favorite movie once, but World War Z, like a million times, just because. Or maybe you choose from a variety of genres based on your more typical moods. Maybe you choose a movie that feels everyone should watch because it was important to you, to make you change, or understand something.

I would also like to know why those movies? Or what is your approach?

I don't know why this is not a thing yet! We have had kits to make barbarians (the RPG), kits to make gladiators (the bare-chest and arms), kits to make dwarfs taller (the Exclusive Sir Valgard version), but nothing to make a figure a dwarf. The most similar thing we have is another Exclusive 2-pack for Gasspparr the Unamused.

It would be very cool for fans, more accessible as it won't be an exclusive, and could bring so many awesome custom figures into everybody's collection, and for a much more affordable price than going to scalpers to buy a complete dwarf figure, only for their legs. Then you end up with a bunch of repetitive heads and shoulderpads. This is why I also chose some generic extra accessories that seem more versatile in my opinion, and don't feel as tiring even if you have them in every dwarf, as those items are part of that race's imaginary.

What do you guys think?

(This is not a paid ad, I don't even know the guy)

So there is a Kickstarter for this new independent toy line, which ends in around 30 hrs. The action figures look very cool imo, and I am excited to see what other designs the company will bring in the future. The Four Horsemen Studios back it up, as they will partner to provide the production side of the operation, and that is saying something.

It is difficult to find a figure with a precise balance between medieval dark fantasy without being too gothic flamboyant, as some designs of overseas companies (which are totally fine), but sometimes you just want a figure that fits perfectly with other medieval-looking lines.

It also has a good range of motion and possability, it brings like a different type of body archetype. Is not as bulky as Xesray, nor as skinny as SHFiguarts, nor as chunky as Mythic Legions, more detailed than Marvel Legends; it looks athletic.

The figures are 45 usd, which I think is a really good price for an Indie company. They have some deluxe figures as unlocks, but I am focusing on the base characters first. Maybe, if we get to back the project, we will see the deluxe characters down the road too.

It is not perfect, of course, they just added a 45 dollars helmet, so there is a helmet accessory that costs the same as a single figure (?) I don't get that. But the helmet is so cool, it makes you wonder about the possibilities, and the other designs that will come in the future (hopefully included with the figure this time).

I am going to back it up. I really hope you guys do it too and can get as excited for this line as I am. Apparently, the owner is a cool dude and also very beloved within the action figure community, so he is "one of us" more than a corporation, and I think pledging to a passion project is an awesome thing to do from our end.
