Something like that, I guess. Except Blassty transforms a lot more cleanly than that one boss does, if still not quite to Macross standards.

Well maybe... But the following comes close. ^_^

.... Why is Book in a Mirror-vers uniform? o.O

It's a mystery that will be explained in due course . .  . ..
probably.

But sadly, due to the series being cancelled, we will never know

That's not a Mirror-verse uniform. That's an admiral's uniform.

Well sort of. It's a dress uniform. It might actually be an Admiral's Dress uniform. But I can't be sure. (And in this context, does it matter?)

You know you've spent too much time on anime and too little on real social interaction, or at least live action, when you look at this picture and think, "What the hell is up with her nose!?"

Early on the morning of Sept. 24, 2007 (the release date of the video game Halo 3), a group of Institute fanboys tricked out the Cantab’s beloved John Harvard statue in the garb of Halo’s Master Chief
For an encore I want to see him decked out as Solid Snake.

Yup, sounds about right

Could be worse. It could be reversed. (I've met people like that. They don't respond well to constructive criticism.)

WG, did you forget some bolts?




I can't work out what caused the carbon scoring

[classicdrogn]

Lightning strike maybe? (RE carbon scoring)

I think it's a supposed to be what happens when a drill bit goes into a house's main power feed.(In my opinion it's not.)

Unless I'm badly mistaken a drill bit in this part of a house's circuit has only one LARGE circuit breaker hopefully near the transformer to protect it and that breaker is designed for lightning strikes and to carry the full load of a house.

I enlarged the image and noticed some straight edges and a couple of square artifacts in the carbon scoring placed around the image portion holding the drill bit.

Also the drill bit and the power wire at the bit itself is suspect, copper wire is very malleable, the plastic insulation covering the internal wires and the outer is strong and wouldn't cut uniformly without pulling and distorting around the bit.

As I mentioned above this bit, as placed should be shorting out a house's entire power load with only the possibility of a very large circuit breaker possibly at the transformer to stop it.

Given the amount of power supposedly shorting through the bit I think the damage is to localized and limited, it would almost certainly have burned the house or burned a large hole in the wall and had smoke and heat damage running up the wall for several meters.

20+ years ago this was built incorrectly. The weld failed at ~05:00 Monday morning, I had the mast re-welded, replaced, a new dish and feedline on, and the link steered and radio passing traffic by ~18:00 Monday. Bitches don't know about my extensive support staff and blind stinking luck.

Verizon standard FIOS install..

(Of note - the outside penetration is the trickiest and most dangerous part of any install. I check and double-check and whenever possible, drill a different wall from the mains. I also use a tactic taught by my father - drill the first layer, stop the drill, use a nonconductive probe to check the interior cavity of the wall, proceed. Wouldn't have helped in this scenario, though)

I missed the actual drill bit in that picture at first - just saw a power line with a black mark around it, and the caption wondering why.
