Why do Gundam's guns have triggers? Especially since you see in 08th MS Team that One Year War era Feddie suits at least have a plug in their hands that directly connect with the guns. That's how they power their beam weapons. So if they plug right into the gun, why have a trigger?

That sort of thing bugs me, I guess you could even go so far as to say it....

You're giving GW money. Bad people give GW money, don't be a bad person.

I am planning on ordering from a local place though so maybe it's not that bad?

But you're just adding a middleman to the equation. GW will get money either way.

g...good anime? on a total tangent just based on your username i feel obliged to inform you that there is actually a professional wrestling promotion with people dressed up as kaijus, it is called kaiju big battel and does indeed have some cage matches. feel free to ignore this if you are not actually interested in the idea of people in kaiju costumes trying to wrestle

Divided We Stand
Queens, New York. The Kaiju Commissioner was hoping to promote The Great Divide as a celebratory night of expansion and heroic achievements. Dr. Cube wasn't having it however, as he used the historic event to demonstrate his wicked ways. Cube, in a ruder, cruder, and more confidently evil mood than usual, introduced his new creation the hybrid duck thing named Derano and while it was defeated, it seemed it was all going along as Cube planed. Amidst the overwhelming amount of monster mayhem, the Kaiju fighters who won their match were made to chose to remain in NY or head to sunny Florida to start up a Southern Kaiju League. The decisions of the victors made for a bitter sweet ending to a night of action packed accomplishments. Every villain that won decided to go and every Hero that won decided to stay, except Paco Plaintain. How will a lone hero, separated from his brother, stem the tide of destruction? Will the Commissioners plan fail resulting in the decimation of Florida? Only time will tell.

I dunno why, but this new stupid "reward" club really binds.

I buy a lot of motorcycle parts, so I J&P cycles a lot. they have never lost or screwed up an order, and you can call their technicians and they will help you through any stupid issues you run into, and are great for helping you fit universal parts.

They have a "gold club" membership. Its 40 bucks, and worth every penny. It gives you a flat 10% off in the online store, and free shipping on any order over 100 bucks. (which is a big deal when ordering heavy parts.)

On top of that, they send you the current parts and sales catalogs for the type of bike you order parts for every quarter, along with free swag like stickers, patches, and the occasional shirt. Hell, I've even had reps contact me about how the project is coming along when I get a bunch of parts at once. on top of that there is some "point" system where you earn store credit, and you get 15 bucks credit for joining the fist time. (annual renewals are only 30 bucks.)

For someone who just rides and just needs the occasional part I'm sure its not a good deal. but if bikes are your "hobby," J&P cycles has a customer rewards program that, I dunno, REWARDS their customers! I buy from them first and only go elsewhere when they don't have what I need.

Because of their top notch service and how they treat their customers I always suggest them to other riders, and I never feel like I'm being taken. I spend far, FAR more money on my bike hobby then I ever could on GW, and yet I have a greater dislike for GW as a company as a whole and feel a lot more guilty when I buy GW poo poo. Hell, I bought my last army from Icon of Sin, and I haven't bought used models in AGES before AoS.

really GW?!? I spend 400 bucks and get a lovely pair of dice? or a LAPEL PIN like they used to give away? OOH! I choose the lovely shirt that has no artistic design what so ever, nothing like the shirts the had back in the day.

Can you imagine if GW had a rewards program like I described? free swag, 10% off, free shipping over 100 bucks, 15 dollar store credit when signing up, extra store credit for buying a lot of poo poo, and a way to call them if you were having a problem?

I should quit gettin' mad at table-top games.

I've changed my mind. I'm ok with hearing about Anime talk as long as it's about triggers.

Go on.

gently caress you for using @ and saying "bye" as a smarmy way to shut down a conversation. You're scum, internet scum, and someday you'll get yours for making GBS threads up the place with misplaced irony and fake cuteness.
