  1. I haven't watched the video, nor will I.

    IMO the more important part of a Kickstarter is a clear, sensible, concise project page.

    Call me old fashioned but if you want my money, I want to read why, not hear why. I've backed 60+ Kickstarters and not ONCE watched a video on the page.

    Nice concise infographics ftw and perhaps if you REALLY want to a video, a small pilot of the show.

  2. The same way they explained Martha and Amy

    And Colin Baker who played Commander Maxil in a 5th Doctor story, before becoming the sixth doctor.

    If they really could be arsed they could even rope in the Romana regenerating into Princess Astra lookalike thing and claim its a (sub)concious choice

    Alternatively, they'll just not bother, rather that than the rather naff explanation we got for Martha (in the Made of Steel book) or that we got for Gwen

  3. I assume the hole in Caps chest is so you can put the Red Skull chest torso in there?

    Ady, can you please elaborate, for us non-comic readers?

    Captain America : Reborn ...............Red Skull takes over Caps body . (shaky bhm precis)

    It is never physically shown that he's in Cap's body other than (I think) a close up of Cap's eyes and they are little red skulls. The Cap outfit that they have here is from the 90's, so it's unrelated.

    Thats not what I meant, although probably makes more sense...

    The current Marvel now series has Cap in some random dimension with the Zola virus, the result is a weird Zola/RedSkullish face living in his chest.

    My first thought on seeing the ZolaSkull mate and that odd gap on caps outer chest piece was that perhaps its to recreate that look... Perhaps even a non red Skull Zola variant?

    Probably unlikely though.

  4. Hehe, DW fandom is fun.

    For what its worth the explanation of the "Doctor" prefix of Doctor Who has got even muddier now that its implied that regardless of if thats his name or if he chose that title/name the only reson we have Doctors and Doctorates and the like is in honour of him throughout the ages.

    The "The Doctor" versus "Doctor Who" or "Doctor" thing is unanswerable, there have been plenty of occasions (even depending on your view of canonicity) that have him presenting himself in various ways, even things such as the credits changed over time. Its almost impossible to apply flawless reasoning to a show that, by its own admission, changed all sorts over time. The original regeneration was him simply using the Tardis to rejuvinate his body and his second one was an enforce changing of identity by the Timelords, it was only with further development that these were retconned into regenerations.

  5. Ah glad it made it, it was meant to be anonymous, but the Mrs wrote my address on the back at the post office.

    Was going through my cupboards and figured they should all be with you (although tbh I thought I had already sent you the Spidey Max thing years back, clearly am senile)

  6. Believe me there is no message board software in existence where Admins CANNOT read PMs. It might be harder to do but its perfectly possible. Your PM goes into a database, we can access that database.

    We don't do it without a damned good reason, and even dating back to the AA boards and the "board with no name" I think its only happened perhaps 3 times in total.

    FWIW Sideshock freaks runs VBulletin, as do two other sites I own, I can read the PMs there.

  7. If it wasn't for 3rd parties my WST collection would be no where near as awesome as it is. (I just got Stepper/Riccochet that is amazing!) just need Sixshot and Astrotrain now.

    In first part world I just treated myself to the Hasbro MP Hot Rod and Alternators Hot Rod, can't wait till they turn up.
