Noticing a lot of stuff is selling out before release or anything special is getting repeatedly delayed .
Then all these QC issues effecting Blu-rays on top of the supply issues .

Watching Predator 2 . There is this odd scene I never really noticed until now.
All of the cars except a bus and delivery truck on the road are from the 60ās or early 70ās . May be one or two late 50ās in there.
Then there is the three red mustang.

@Psychopuppet Havenāt seen Predator 2 Iām a very long time. I presume there wasnāt supposedly a vintage car show going on at the time of filming, perchance?

Iām not sure. Them being from the same era makes me wonder if they were sharing a filming location with another film or they just used whatever vehicles they had on hand.

Hmmā¦
I think my Roku just diedā¦
Iāve power cycled it. Iāve burped it. Iāve let it rest for a couple minutes without power. No matter what I do, it wonāt connect to my Wi-Fi anymore.
Itās not my Wi-Fi. Iām posting right now for proof of that.

I see the Haslab Rancor did not make it to funded. Iām thinking unless it happens in the next 15 hours the Skystriker/o-ring style figures wonāt make it either.
The Proton pack made it ,but wearable props almost always do so not a surprise with it only needing 7000 to.
Why create three of these things before Christmas/Holidays when people typically have less money to support them as they are spending on holiday stuff? At least make it end 2 days after Christmas when someone might have some Christmas/Holiday cash.
Also they should have done the Whale instead of the Skystriker as itās still easy to find a clean vintage one. Whale not as much.

From the comparison videos that I was recommended on YouTube, the Rancor looked pretty bad when compared against other collectible Star Wars figures in the same price range, and vs what fans had done by hand with older official figures of a Rancor?
Haslab wanted 9,000 backers for their $349.99 Rancor. Thatās ~3.15 million dollars. Thatās a lot of money for what we were going to get, and it seems excessive to me.
But it does rub me the wrong way a bit to see Hasbro, a company worth 13.6 billion dollars, doing crowdfunding. Itās like when Shenmue 3 was kickstarted and then the project revealed being backed by Sony, or when Funimation kickstarted their redub of Escaflowne.
Maybe Iām being too much of a romantic, because it seems to me that crowdfunding was for normal people to fund big projects, not for big corporate conglomerates to fund their little projects

That is my biggest issue with this. If it was a matter of checking fan interest they could do what Mattel does. Take pre-orders produce enough to meet them, then charge once it ships. Then if someone backs out sell the leftovers online.
Hasbro is basically using fan lust to pay for the tooling and production of this stuff. Stuff they could easily pay for.
The Skystriker did get funded ,but it was ugly among the Gi Joe groups. People saying if you donāt fund this your not a real fan or I hope it fails. Bickering back and forth.

Looks like my tv in my room is on its last legs. Developed this annoying flicker in two of the corners. Sucks as it has some older plug-ins most new TVās donāt. Plus it has the large center stand instead of those cheap legs, Itās from back when Roku was they included a purple dongle for a special Hdmi port that the tv remote worked with. If I did not use it so much I think Iād get a short throw projector. Now to start looking for a decent replacement. Guess I could get a new one for the living room and take the old one from there.

Decided on a LG TV since it uses the Linux based WebOs and the reviews seem to be a bit better.
Now to wait for stock of the one I want and hope mine does not die before then.
