The State of Shenanigans

Whooo wee, it's been a long while since I've posted.

Well, let's just say that I am still around, juts not as active as I'd like.  A new job that drains one's energy with a long commute has lessened my down-time somewhat.

However never fear, despite the lack of posts, I am still playing with toys.  I'd like to get into reviews again, which I dropped off doing, as t took me too long to set up the table and stuff for quality picture taking.  So to counter this, I'm going to do some "Quick n Nasty" reviews, which will be quick setup and probably shot with my telephone instead of my camera.

Hopefully the comments to go with the pictures will make up for the quality.

Comic translations take up a fair bit of time and I'm still doing them.  I'm pleased to say that I have most of the comics scanned.  I did stumble across some low quality water marked ones on seibertron's website as a back up plan for a bunch.  So, if you want to cruise on over to my "Comics required" page and help out with sexy hi-quality scans, I'd appreciate it.

Videos also have fallen on  the back burner, mainly due to the time I put into editing them.  I still have a bunch of footage of toys that I need to work on and am slowly plonling through them.

Game wise (yet another time drain), I am playing my way through the Witcher 3 GOTY, have restarted Breath of Fire IV (forgot what I was doing) as well as playing Wonderboy 3 the Dragon's Trap on PS4 as it's a great remake.

With all that said, keep your eyes peeled, as I'm still alive and kicking and almost have a Quick and Nasty review of POTP Sludge ready to go!

LG45 Hot Rod Legends Comic Translation

Back with another quality translation, thanks to my good brain.  Today, I have Hot Rod’s comic translated and looking good.  This one had some tricky sound effect sections to fix, which were challenging, but I enjoyed doing it.  The comic is also rather amusing too.

Included is a bio translation, as well as the original Japanese and arrowed\arrowless versions.

Enjoy.

2017 Power Rangers movie… A review of sorts

Hrm, I say  I must admit for this movie, I had pretty low expectations, so I was in no hurry to see it.  However I was determined to watch it.  So I did.

LG27 Blaster Legends Comic Translation

Well, after what finally feels like an age,  I’ve finished editing Blaster’s comic from the Legends line.  I really went all out with this baby.  It was fun!

A big thanks must go to a very nice chap who goes by the handle of Gold5 who sent me some nice high quality scans of the comic.  Thanks my friend!  You’re a real champ!

So, as usual  I’ll provide the Japanese, Arrowed and no arrows.

Because Gold5 went to the effort of scanning them for me, I even went and translated the bio too.

TF Legends Comic #1 Translation

The pack in comics of the Legends toys take a fair bit of time to work on, so to move things along, I’ll be working on the online comics from Takaratomy’s website as well.  As a result, here’s the very first of the comics, featuring or darling Transformer Fanatic Rattrap.

In a little extra challenge, my proof-reading friend asked me if I’d ever thought about reversing the comic for Left to right easy reading.  So I gave it a try.  This time, I’ll provide a Japanese one, then straight translation, then finally left-right version.

So, please enjoy Issue #1.

LG54 Legends Bumblebee and Spike

What the heck??  Two videos within a few weeks of each other???????  Has he gone mad?

Not really.  Well, not more so than normal anyway.

Legends Dinasaurer, Titans Returns Trypticon Review.

Finally, my video review of the mighty Legends Trypticon is finished and man it took me a while to make.  However the reason it did so was because I spent a lot of time doing it.  Obviously....

I am rather pleased with the result.  So, may I present my Legends Dinosaurer or Titans Returns Trypticon video review. 

Incidentally, from my brief googling, it's probably the shortest video review of this guy on the web.  Just a shame my video doesn't seem to show up in the web searches.  Probably because I don't post enough, but hey.  The little guy keeps on working.

Enjoy and leave a comment if you like.
