Made the mistake of going on Pokemoncenter.com and saw this bad boy.

Then I saw a $250 price tag. Yeah. Probably shouldn't be burning money on that.

Also they're selling a $300 longcat plush lol.

Jeeze Pokemon merchandise can be so expensive.



Edit: Turns out the Charizard was limited to 3500 pieces anyway and preorders are all sold out. That's lame.

I pre-ordered a $100 Link statue if that makes ya feel better.

I'm putting most of my stimulus into savings right now, but between that and my payday being this Thursday, I think I might put a hundred dollars or so aside to buy myself a nice piece of Pokemon merchandise or something. I never buy myself anything nice. And honestly I'm getting kind of jealous of my sister who's always buying new Disney merch.

On a different note it pains me to see that Silvally and Null still have basically no merchandise. When I first saw Null's design I thought it'd get at least some marketing. 'Tis ironic that this pokemon was cast aside by its creators, both in lore and in real life.

I’d much prefer to keep it low. I specifically asked my brother for this for Christmas in ‘19 thanks to the $65 price tag.

That, and the fact that it’s the most SFW figure of her I could find.

You're lucky you live in Australia and get it a week early (Given it comes out internationally next week outside of North America) where you guys pretty much have COVID under control so you'll probably get to see it on the big screen.

Me on the other hand where I live, my theater is still closed due to being a hotspot, so I'll have to resort to watching it on a streaming site on my computer. No matter though, because as long as I see it in any form, that's what matters.

Hope it lives to your expectations and you enjoy it my Australian bro. Kaiju fans all together!

First Banjo Kazooie, now this.

People are so intent with pairing Xenoblade 2 with the things I love.

Her art is legit really cute, and she is super good with the pairings.

Interesting.

 

[Z25]

Sooo has anyone else seen that series finale of DuckTales?

Because it was completely insane and it was awesome.

It was so good, they nailed it.

Spoiler

everyone got their moments to shine andWebby’s backstory being that she is a clone of Scrooge with Daisy’s nieces being reckoned as clones in this was prettycrazy. Bradfod was great to, especially when you can actually see in the the flashbacks, that he was behind Della disappearing. He’s shown smirking and sort of laughing in the suncrasher episodes background.

Him getting turned into a normal buzzard was crazy.

Hey Mamboo07

A reminder assuming you have NetFlix. There's Pacific Rim: The Black currently released now and in April will be Godzilla: Singular Point.

Just at the off chance you don't know any of those.

 

[Wademan94]

nope I'm marathoning through WrestleMania. Just thinking about how Undertaker (and Ghost Rider) are badass bikers

Gotcha, I’m referring to the fact that the Castlevania game I mentioned has skeletons on motorcycles in Victorian era London

It’s St. Patrick’s day, so I’m bringing back this legend.

Been a while since I’ve talked about my Sonic fighting game ideas but I was legitimately thinking about making Irish an Injustice 2 inspired alt character for Sonic. Even had a few ideas of how to make the moves Irish themed.

that weirdly makes sense for a Castlevania game to have...could be just my mind believing it to be so tho

fictional world based games really do be normal enough to involve that at this point...now GTA...when will you get that ridiculously normal?

Lucas is better and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

I don’t think Lucas is bad, of course. But I’ve never wanted to strangle a Lucas main to death using the umbilical cord of his first born child, Y’know what I mean?

 

[Deleted member]

I think I did pretty well with my doodle today

I'll probably draw some pokemon later (or stuff people actually care about) but idk

Crash 4 is really great so far. Got to the fourth world last night.

Are we talking as a character or viability wise?

As a character, yes, viability wise, no.

 

[Metal Shop X]

Can safely out of all my years listening to anime & other various japanese media.

I never wished this much I could understand Japanese without subtitles than now, and not for anime in particular.

I want to get what changes did they make to Undertale/Deltarune jokes and other parts that can't be smoothly translated without some changes & what any of the Hololives girls are saying while they play those games.

Yes, i'm still stuck in the vortex, help me

My Monster Hunter 2020 Review:

Having been released back in December, and looking at how the likes of Sonic the Hedgehog and Detective Pikachu fared well can Paul W.S. Anderson and Mila Jovovich's Monster Hunter continue the trend? Sadly the adaption based upon Capcom's hit selling franchise failed to ignite as it fell rather flat. The plot had no substance with no actual development built in which made me want to care less about the characters as I wasn't entirely too invested in Natalie Artemis' backstory.

In addition I felt that the rest of the cast from the Natalie's US Army were completely wasted at the beginning as well as iconic martial arts actor Tony Jaa who certainly deserved better.

The pacing felt like it took quite a while to get going in which Natalie and the Hunter (Jaa) took down the Diablos until Rathalos showed up in the final 30 minutes which doesn't really seem to give much time to for one of Monster Hunter's iconic beasts to shine on screen. In addition to the very slow pacing, the editing was rather jarring with a lot of quick cuts thrown within the action sequences which made it very hard for me to follow or engage in the scenes. But then again, this is pretty much Paul W.S. Anderson's trademark which he utilised since the Resident Evil movies.

Overall, Monster Hunter felt like it failed to take what made their games so popular and made it rather uninteresting. if I have any advice for Capcom and Sony Pictures going forward, please do not let Paul W.S. Anderson touch another one of your franchises to film, otherwise he will destroy it.

Rating: 3/10.

Ah, I remember watching one of this channel's videos a while ago in which I do agree with his points about the problems with the Amazing Spider-Man films.

Guess I'll have to find a way to see Zack Snyder's Justice League next.

It’s St. Patrick’s day, so I’m bringing back this legend.

I still remember the drawing I did of Irish and Silver last time, and I was going to do something today, either in the form of something drawn or written because while we don't celebrate St.Patrick's Day in Mexico, I find it a very interesting celebration and also the feats of the Saint himself. Unfortunately, I probably won't, or maybe I will just to distract myself of the fact that I lost my grandmother today. I really didn't want the day to be somber, but my only relief it's that she's not suffering anymore. It's going to be hard for me to return home knowing that her house is now empty and that I cannot tell her how much I love her anymore. I am so sorry to bring this up but, I am trying to let it all out.

If a mega man robot master was a boss in smash what would you want it to be

To me Gemini Man is the best concept wise due to not having a double boss battle in smash yet
