a show that just tackles the ins and outs (and even the darkside of) building gunpla. just building it, no VR/magic particles that make them move.

So the teaser for the Venom movie is out… And Venom himself is nowhere to be seen, it’s just Tom Hardy narrating a bunch of shit with like 2 seconds of the symbiote itself.

@Jarkes  
Off to a good start I see :/
 
please don’t end up like the Sam Rami Venom

Cursed Gundam, the story of a veteran pilot leading her squad of rookies eventually she finds herself facing the 5 members of her old Squad who at the end of the last war betrayed her and the other two loyal members killing them and maiming her,
 
because of the first one of her traitorous squadmates she meets in the new war having one of the 12 Gundams that their creator allows to exist at any given time and having an elite squad as backup her Squad is forced to retreat, the Gundam’s creator is kinda peeved when he realizes that she probably could have won the fight, so to bypass the 12 gundams rule let’s his kids build her one naming it Cursed Gundam for being the 13th, they include a nifty feature allowing her newest cybernetic hands to plug into it’s controls, giving her the ability to fully realize her fencing skills with it’s beam saber/beam dagger combo,
 
After killing her old squad mate she begins hunting the other 4 but after 2 of them her LI demands she give up on the reckless quest for revenge, she agrees too, however after it looks like her LI was killed in the final battle she fall back on her quest as a coping mechinism, killing one of the two remaining traitors, and facing her old Second in command at last, but Cursed Gundam is in bad shape and she’s only able to fight him to a draw bothe Gundam’s shut down midfight,
 
she then exists her cock pit carrying her Rapier and Dagger and challenges him to a proper sword fight, after one last attempt by him to talk her down, he finally comes out carrying his Katana and Wakazashi, they then have a duel atop their disabled mobile suits which ends when she forces him to jump over a slash then kicks him over the edge to his death,
 
she then learns that her LI is alive, and finally agrees to retire from front lines and take a job as an instructor, the series ending on the two of them being happy, and our hero finally not seeing being an insctructor as a failure like she did at the beginning,

So, the Venom teaser is out.
 
They make it look like some generic thriller. There’s not even a hint of Eddie starting to symbiote up.

@Angrybrony  
Actually, that one is on DVD. The DVD is just a little old now.
 
@Jarkes  
That would be Daredevil. Thor was in the first TV movie, Return. Trial is even more of a blatant pilot, since Daredevil does most of the action in the finale and Banner never even Hulks out during that part.

@Jarkes  
yea that was disappointing

I forgot, what was the reason for bottle caps becoming the currency of the Fallout universe?

@ice1517  
Limited supply, easy to carry, plentiful, and durable, they used to be backed by water on the west coast, I.E. you could trade caps for water which made them universally useful and valuable, it’s belived that the Botherhood spread this to the east coast,

so for Captain Marvel(carol danvers) is closing in on issue #200 what previous carol writer you wanna see write a story for landmark issue & what writer who hasn’t written her much wanna see have a try?

@ice1517
 
What Thanatos said. Eventually though they just dropped the middle man and made bottlecaps the main currency in of itself.
 
The NCR and Legion tried to introduce a new form of currency, and it was gaining some momentum, but the NCR’s gold stockpile got destroyed by the Brotherhood so their paper money became worthless and a lot of people just don’t like the Legion. So even in the West Coast people just stuck to bottlecaps.

@Dustcan  
Are bottlecaps the currency in the rest of the world in the Fallout universe, or is it just America?

@ice1517  
The world outside America doesn’t really come up.

@ice1517
 
We don’t know how the rest of the world is like outside America. For all we know everywhere else could be some futuristic utopia.
 
One character in 3 came from Britain and said it sucked there though.

@Dustcan  
TBF Britain sucks in general.
 
Also a Fallout game in Birtain or China or another nation would be pretty interesting.

@Dustcan  
bottle caps are also surprising good for making shrapnel explosives.  

da fuck is this shit.  

@Angrybrony  
Complete garbage,
 
Idea, a Metroidvania game where you play a sultry/dapper sorceress trying to gather spell books and all the Cutsceens are disneyesque musical numbers,

@Angrybrony  
what year was that?

@Angrybrony  
freedom from puritanical america if /co/ is to be believed

@OptimusPrimevil  
oh yeah that’s tots what it is./s

@Angrybrony  
also who’s the artist?

@Background Pony #F6F5
