Christ all mightly, let's leave Legion the skreeonk alone, please. He's a collector, and it's not like he spent that amount of $ on, oh, say, bootlegs.


We really need some news on MEGALON soon. It's amazing how incredibly sidetracked this topic is right now.

If you going to call someone out on spending money, make sure youve not spent an ungodly amount of something equally as foolish.

There's no news on Megs. MB doesnt answer questions on their Facebook. We could ask kpa but I bet they'll tell him "We're still working on approval with Toho..".

I'm not calling out someone for spending money. I'm saying it's ridiculous to spend $35 on what amounts to a few DV-Rs, a cheap plastic case and a xeroxed piece of paper. To give a bootlegger over $30 for something that probably cost him a few bucks to make - something he made by illegally ripping off someone else's property - is ridiculous. It's even more ridiculous to go out of your way to support it.

In other words, shut up.

You spent $17,500 on three pieces of plastic that probably cost a few bucks to make.

Has anyone heard or seen of new pressings of DAM on DVD or BRD?

Yeah well, I've had people tell me that when I tell them my dream car would be a Brabus SV12-R BiTurbo.

Uh huh, because that makes total perfect sense. Because me spending a lot on incredibly rare (and that's an understatement), authentic pieces of Godzilla toy history that are so tough to find that they're coveted even Japan is the exact same thing as giving a bootlegger $35 to basically pop in a DVD-R and make you an illegal copy of something.

Now DROP IT.

Your raging hardon for bootlegs may be blinding you to reality, but if one item is genuine, legitimate product and the other is an illegal, illegitimate copy, then spending a large chunk of change on one is NOT "equally as foolish" as spending it on the other. This is not a difficult concept to grasp. If the DVD wasn't a f*cking bootleg , then you may have a point, but it is, so you don't.

But they are genuine, legitimate products, unlike the DVD. See above.

God, wataru, what is your problem? I'd really like to know .

I wonder if MEGALON is going to come with custom end titles like DAM. In fact, what do you guys think of the custom end titles for DAM?

Over 200,000 GBP but again, that's a import high end luxuary car.

And YOU dont tell me to drop it, Legion. When you want to start in on people, you need to be prepared for some come-backs. The authenticity of your purchase as part of your argument is negated by the sheer cost you spent on them. You compare a $35 bootleg of a film to 3 toys totalling $17,500.

Boils down to this - dont tell people how to spend their money when it's no where near the neighborhood of what you've spent on something equally frivolous.

Smog Monster - if you bothered to read and analyze Legion's "arguments', you'd see how blind HE really is.

Shut up, wataru. I don't give a shit anymore.

Shut your fat mouth and leave me the hell alone.

And you're on ignore now. So if you continue to start shit with me you're not getting any responses. At least not from me.

Id love to discuss it but alas, we cannot. It's not been made and the distributor isnt answering questions.

...we could talk about Megalon in general?

Oh, I've read them. And they make a hell of a lot more sense then your babbling. Be quiet.

I thought Media Blasters did a great job on DAM. I'm hoping that Megalon will be just as good, but honestly, even if it's bare-bones, as long as the video and sound are HQ, I don't care.

Me neither. I just want a really nice looking, subtitled copy that's LEGALLY AVAILABLE that I can show friends.
