So this car actually had headlight fluid? Wow. Now all we need is to find a car with muffler bearings...

OOoh, do one up as Herbie the Love Bug! Please?

Explain, please? From everything I’ve read the NA and NB are essentially the same car with some differences in the body and interior. Mechanically, the later NA and early NB are virtually identical including sharing the same engine and transmission and the frames are also identical. What would be all that different…

The answer is an NB with an NA front clip. They’re basically the same car, what fits on one will most likely fit the other for the most part. Not that I’ve tried this, mind you, but the platform is the same so it should be able to be made to work.

That’s what the 6-speed manual gearbox is for. If you can’t get good acceleration out of a lightweight car with a real clutch, you’re not doing it right.

Hooray, I’m not the only one who ships Jubilee and X-23!

I love X-23. I hate the blue and yellow costume, always have. She looks better in black, and should be rocking the black outfit. It’s a shame she isn’t carrying a book on her own name, but at least stories about her are getting made so that’s a plus at least.

I agree with everything you said except “did in the name of diversity”, because I don’t think they should. I think they should ONLY do things in the name of good storytelling, plain and simple. There should be no other goal or agenda except to tell the best, most interesting and compelling stories possible. That will…

“But I only -have- one cookie.” “In that case me settle.”

ROTFLMAO. Just perfection.

Unless of course your marketing duties involved advocating online. How much do you make per pro-Elmo post? Some of us might sell our souls to the little red demon too if the price is right.

I had a 5-speed ‘81 Celica with the 22R, the rust monster was strong with that one but the engine... smooth power all day long. I frequently had to use the cruise control because if I wasn’t careful I’d find myself doing 90+ without even noticing it. I never took her into triple digits, but who needs to go -that-…

Oh that dialogue is BRILLIANT! I’m laughing my ass off here, seriously. This is amazing wit and comedic timing, Henson was truly a genius. No wonder everything he touched was golden.

I don’t think it can, because Henson is gone.

I get it, you’re on the staff and you’re making money from all the Elmo merchandising. Doesn’t mean the rest of us have to be on board.

I don’t remember ever seeing this one before... it’s amazing. Just oh so beautiful, true Henson brilliance.

There is a difference between technology realistic to the relatively near future of Earth and a galaxy-spanning mega-civilization that has had interstellar spaceflight for hundreds of thousands of years and is full of technology that might as well be magic.

Did you notice that these ships have some sort of bubble shield surrounding them? That probably serves as an aerodynamic fairing and only a small amount of air gets through it if any. That’s why things shaped like bricks fly without any signs of wind resistance.

Way, way sexier.

And the subsequent 22R was even better. Toyotas of that era were nigh-unkillable, aside from some body rust issues. They took over the world because they were much more reliable and better built and more smartly engineered than their American competitors, plain and simple.

Clearly you are too young to understand Soundwave’s appeal. In the 80s, the Sony Walkman was THE piece of tech to have and every kid lusted after it. Most were lucky if they got a knockoff. It was at least as much a status symbol as an iPod or iPhone. Making a Transformer based on one was a no-brainer and he was an…
