    I adore the Victory designs. Mostly because I adore the entire "80s anime robot" design aesthetic, so even though I've only seen like 5 episodes of Victory I went in on both Star Saber and Deathsaurus because they're both so, so "80s super robot" and I couldn't be happier with them. Deathsaurus especially is Masterpiece level, I really don't see how he could be improved on. Hopefully at some point we'll get Dino Force (WITH the pretender shells, no one ever remembers what the inner robots on Pretenders looked like let's face it) and Liokaiser.

    Strip down most of the accessories and you have one pretty amazing Commander Class entry for 2024. This thing while looking phenomenal in robot mode has perhaps one of the most bizarre creature alt modes I've ever see. Hilariously silly and impossible not to love. Very how much I feel about the Skylinx design in how dumb but unrepentantly fun and dumb it is. Great review and probably the best Haslab release yet without costing a small fortune Side note: SS Galvatron needs a monthly Megatron. Decided to pick one up, and pretty fun and articulated figure. Not perfect by any means but the transformation is surprisingly quite fun though quite involved.

    And yes, "Godzilla Minus One" is a bloody amazing film. Certainly the best Godzilla movie I've ever watched, the first film to get me back into a cinema since October 2019, and the only film I've paid to see more than once in the cinema since "Jurassic Park" in 1993.
    Gotta say, though, this Deathsaurus and "Minus One" Godzilla are so dang thicccc, it's like they were both designed by Pixar.
