    Oh well, I'll probably still buy him. Even though the stupid joints break on everything I buy. I'm a sheep or something. I don't know why.

     

    Don't worry, dyde. The joints this year are TOTALLY different from last year's.

    I even took my Glatorian and popped the sockets in and out like 20 times, determined to see if they'd snap or not.

     

    They passed. Well, so far. I only have 2 of them, Raanu being one.

     

    It is the worst helmet of them all actually, and is too wide, making it impossible to move his head around.

     

    I buy sets strictly as parts packs for mocing, but I built this guy most of the while checking the joints. However, I put his helmet on backwards, lost the blades, put him in a sitting position and had him hold the fire weapon like a guitar.

     

    He is now Joey Sombrero, a street singer from Mexico awaiting change to be tossed to him.

    I even had minifigs walking past him tossing coins before him.

    (Why did I not take a picture?)

     

    So yeah, bad helmet, awesome hat.

    Woah. The topic got slaughtered? It seemed so tame. Musta' missed something after I left it.

     

    Anyway, Europa sure seems like the likely choice, if one HAD to find life in the fastest amount of time.

    Mars schmars, head off to that moon already.

     

    Who's to say our reality that we've all grown up thinking is "normal" isn't in fact a story of alien contact? We kinda' don't look like we belong here... and the fossil record helps that idea along by getting more messed up every time we find a new relative that shouldn't technically exist.

    Hmmm. Only on one system.

     

    Still, if they execute it right, debug it to perfection and make it all fun... it means there'll eventually be incarnations on OTHER platforms.

     

    Brilliant thinking on their part. Revisiting their roots in a new technology kind of way is most welcome. They've got the Star Wars license for a good while, but I want them being recognized by their own established properties as well.

    even though we have no idea what alien encounters would be like.

     

    Indeed... who's to say our daily, normal life isn't filled with alien contact already? What if what we think is "normal" is in fact one of alien contact on a covert level.

     

    The fossil record's ALL messed up.

    We kind of just "popped in" here. Maybe we were / are the aliens.

     

    The possibilities are endless.

     

    I'm already stuck into my own corner of weirdness with the rest of the paranormal as is. If I ever encounter aliens or whatnot, hey, great, but my plate's already too full to bother going out looking for them.

    Why do you even have such a thing?

     

    What do you mean?

    I bought it in, like, '91.

    I waaaaas... math math math... like 18 or something. (wow.)

     

    Granted, I HATE Marvel comics, but I loved action figures... even of dorky American superheroes.

    They were "new", for their time. Like Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles was a breakthrough toy line in marketing and abstract sculpting, the Marvel lines were breakthrough in that the toys at times exceeded the dumb comics they came from.

     

    In this case, it was Venom. I liked his character design. At one point, I had like 20 different versions of the character, the one with the sound chip being the first one I ever got. :D

     

    (EDIT: These are the Venom figures I have left after losing a bunch during moves. It is FAR from all the ones I had before I stopped buying action figures):

    I should like, sell these on eBay or something...

    Just..look into the uncommon-but-possible ways an electronic device can go off, before you say it can only be supernatural.

     

    I'm not saying I know anything about that, but I'm sure it's possible.

     

    Well yeah, of course.

     

    There's definitely some things I haven't thought of that might be able to set it off. Though wow... it's how it went off that got me.

     

    I know what you're saying though. Out of all the "ghost shows" on TV I've seen, only 2 are sanely watchable.

    You can't just have a perimeter sensor get tripped, get a disembodied voice on an EVP, see a glowing hot blob on an FLIR camera and go, "I have zee proofs!"

    You have to get it multiple times. You have to get CLEARLY-defined forms. You have to get responses to exactly what you're saying.

     

    And if I ever get the equipment I have planned constructed... I'm going to crack this poop wide the heck open.

    desire to break into your house the day you get those.

    Just the tip of the iceberg. Next year, I'm probably going to have, let's say, a lot of free movement in regards to buying things.

     

    There's technology in my head based off such devices that I'm going to have custom-made.

     

    If things go as I think they do, they might even become mainstream.

    I need to look into patents though, as I'm SURE I'm not the first person to think up these configurations.
