Captain B-Money Reviews: SD Archive RX-78-2
Hello there everybody today I am reviewing a Toy. Something I haven't done since 2008. SD Archive RX-78-2 comes from the SD Archive Line that has recently been popping up that are Mobile Suit In Action figures from the same toyline that the SD Gundam Force Action Figures came from as well.
SD has been around a very long time in the franchises history from shows about Kingdoms and Warriors to skits making fun of America's "Wacky Races". But as of lately SD Gundams always seem to bring up the images of SD Gundam Force to people who are not well detailed into the Gundam Franchise.
The RX-78-2 comes with quite a few things that make it truly an awesome figure to have for any reason. Inside the torso it has a Transformable Core Fighter which you can put inside the Gundam if you like or fly it around as an extra. Two beams swords Which are attached to their hilts which make for good swordplay with other action figures from this collection. A beam gun for aiming at any redshirt Zaku's just passing by. A Bazooka for showing all the Dom Pilots who is boss and A shield that can attach to either arm. These accessories make this action figure worth it.
There are some other figures like this. In America when the SD Gundam Force TV show came out there was a Set like this that came with the G-Fighter and could combine with the Gundam to make all of the modes seen in the TV series of Mobile Suit Gundam. That is incredibly hard to find now but I have a feeling I may get to reviewing that someday.
The poseability of this action figure is amazing. the head can move around a whole 360 degrees. the Arms have many positions they can make with how well placed they are, the shoulders move around a tiny bit which makes for some awesome poses. However the legs don't move very well, The only thing that is really poseable on the legs are the feet but they are pretty big and have enough room to spread far enough.
Final Thought:
If you are a Gundam fan this action figure is pretty sweet for all that it comes with. Its perfect to set up anywhere and I really hope Bandai brings out more SD Gundam's for the SD Gundam Archive collection. Wouldn't mind personally seeing Gundam X and Double X.

B-Money Reviews: Twilight
Captain B-Money reviews Twilight.
Hello there folks. I am going to try and bring something new to the table here at JEFusion and review
movies that tend to become popular. Today through a test of my sanity and to see if I still deserve my Man-Card I am going to review the Movie Adaptation of Stephanie Mayers "Twilight". A franchise that rips apart classic Monster Movie Lore by making its franchise understandable and likable by females who are either getting out of Middle School or are just in their first few years of high school.
Let us start with the characters. First there is the main character Bella. She is suppose to be the Every Girl in
this series who has no idea what she want's to do in her life. After being Kicked Out of Phoenix Arizona where her Mother and Step Dad live she is forced to move in with her real father in Forks, Washington. So going through the
change from a sunny awesome part of the country to a shitty dreary disgusting part makes a girl all depressed.
After we are introduced to Bella Swan we are than introduced to Jacob who starts out by saying "We used to make MudPies when we were little". There is a good chance that Taylor Lautner ate a few mud-pies before even thinking of signing
up for this movie. But that is only behind the scenes rumors ;P. He actually has legitimate conversations with Bella and isn't very awkward at all.
Than we get introduced to Mike Newtin. A normal human being who Stephanie Mayer constantly makes look like a complete pussy for the sake to whore out Jacob and Edward. To show that no normal guy deserves a girl. This character annoys me because he should be a Main Focus for this whole damn franchise and not a Sparkling Vampire and a Fluffy Dog Werewolf.
After Mike we are Introduced to Jessica Stanley played by the absolutely beautiful Anna Kendrick. She is made out to be the Dumb Hoe of every high school. The girls that are always attached to the jocks of high schools and whatnot. I like
her character because she is a normal person as well who will eventually be dragged into Bella's Bullshit.
And Finally to Edward Cullin. This character is portrayed as a new-version of a Vampire. Instantly falls in love with Bella and his favorite activities include: Looking at Bella, Watching Bella Sleep, Climbing into Bella's Window,
Sniffing Bella's Hair, Stealing Bella's Clothing. This character is the character every girl is suppose to love. Suppose to want as a boyfriend/Boytoy/SexSlave. In vampire Statistics He rates Lower than the M&M's with Vampire Clothing
we all see around October.
Now that we are done with the introduction of Characters I will move onto the plot.
Bella is a every-girl who must move to Washington because her Real Mother kicked her out of Arizona. She never really
gets along with everyone because She tends to be a whiner and somebody noone really wants to be around. She makes friends
with a random group in the new school containing normal people who don't have anything really wrong with them
though they are made to look like a bunch of babbling idiots because of the way they were written by Stephanie Mayer.
So Bella meets a Sparklepire by the name of Edward Cullin and they instantly fall in love over the little amount of
time they have been together. She is liked so much to the point where she is invited to play the All American sport
of Baseball with a whole bunch of Sparklepires. Soon Edward learns he must protect Bella from....Other Sparklepires, Fluffy
Dog Werewolves and Aliens? Because we all know Aliens did it. Right?
Final Thought on Twilight:
I get that this is a Romance but I've watched and read way better romance stories than this. I do not understand
how something like this could become popular. Not to mention that Stephanie Mayer stole the entire franchise idea
from her college roommate. What makes this franchise so popular? Is it Rob Pattinson? Taylor Lautner? This franchise
is killing the Horror Genre by just existing. I am going to sit through all the movies as they come out on DVD. so whoever
reads this blog please prey for my sanity after this.
