This is due to the nature of products offered by Darkside Games and its affiliates. Not including hundreds of raw cards on ebay and the many thousands more sitting in people's houses who aren't keen on capitalizing on price spikes or are hesitant to grade anything because they've never done so before.Įveryone buying at $1400+ thinks they are big braining this play when instead the reality is they are throwing concepts of fundementals out the window and FOMOing during hype.We do not offer returns (except where required by law), which means you should verify the product you order is the correct item. Thats only with 460 total submissions, and that population doesn't include the increased volume going to BGS and CGC because of the current premium on decent turnaround at PSA. Thats only people who express graded or sent a regular order in early on right when they got it. There are already 83 PSA 10s of this card. Everyone was operating on the false assumption that PSA 10 pop will be low on this card. When that happens and there are 500+ 10s graded the price will tank, and the 9s will tank even harder. It doesn't take all that long for hype to die out. This card is maybe a $500 PSA 10 at best long term. are most welcome!Īnd just so everyone knows this is overpriced and people collecting 20 years from now will use this card as an example of why you don't buy into the hype. Even then, if it were to come back a 9 (could it even be an 8?), is it worth sending it off to be graded given the cost (likely the $50 option) and the wait time? I've also never sent anything to be graded myself, so I may just be trying to talk myself out of it because I'm nervous, lol.Īny tips, pointers, opinions, past experiences, etc. Plus, it doesn't have a swirl, which makes the valuation on the lower side given the popularity of swirls. I'm pretty positive it won't come back a 10 given that the centering is a bit off and there is a print line going across the bottom of the holo. ![]() With the huge boom in the prices for the Special Delivery Pikachu, I was wondering if it was worth it to sell it sealed OR get it graded (and incur the cost of grading from PSA as well as the wait time)? I figured it would become valuable in a few years, so I kept it sealed (I also have the Ornament that came with it sealed as well). Our Special Delivery Pikachu (SWSH074) Sword & Shield: Black Star Promos is currently sold out. With that being said, I was one of the lucky ones to get a Special Delivery Pikachu from the Pokemon Center (although I didn't buy any on ebay, then, which was a poor decision in hindsight). With the new craze of card collecting/grading/selling/investing that has happened in the past 10 months, I've been more cognizant of the investing side of collecting. I'm not much of a pokemon investor right now, but I have been collecting cards for the last 4 or 5 years (other than what I did in my childhood). Considering how sadistic bosses in the last game could get, these were very welcomed additions. They now all have the ability to block attacks, something only Milla in the original game was capable of while the other two had to abuse abilities with invincibility frames to do, and they now have the ability to spend an amount of excess extra lives to revive on the spot instead of having to do things over from the last checkpoint. The main trio's got redesigned, now sporting an older look, have all undergone training in the years since the last game to improve upon their skills. The core gameplay carries over from the original, albeit streamlined. Who is Merga? What is she planning? Has an old enemy returned, as some fear? And when certain truths are uncovered, will they tear the trio apart? Soon, however, it will turn out that these seemingly-minor incidents all have something more going on behind them. Three years later, Lilac and Carol's treehouse has been destroyed by a rampaging robot, so they and Milla need to do missions for the Magister of Shang Tu alongside Neera Li in exchange for a place to stay. After the Kingdom Stone was destroyed at the end of the first game, a water dragon named Merga broke out of her prison. it's doubtful if the design was ever used for a FP-associated project/fanfic prior to the name "Carrie".The sequel to the surprise indie hit Freedom Planet, the game was an unexpected announcement on December 25, 2015.there is no canon way to say her last name.Carrie Mei's name is an obvious play on Carol Tea's. ![]() her role was initially meant to be assumed by Cavy Spade's until Hyper remembered that this sprite existed.she plays very close to Carol, albeit with some changes coming in the form of no bike and a sonic-esque double-jump ability. skin to Carol, being activated by pressing up on the character select for 10 frames. In Shang Mu Architect, Carrie acts as an alt. in the final part, her glitches are gone, and she returns to the dev menu acting as Avalice's admin. ![]() in part 9 of the fic, Carrie gets perceived to be killed by Perfect Sash using the code-smasher while defending Team Lilac, but shows up in the 11th hour donning a blue scarf and glitching, Sash having missed her important code. Lilac promises her that she'll help, and after learning of her lack of a name gives her the proper name of "Carrie", Milla later giving her the last name of "Mei". on the verge of tears due to the dragon's at first accusatory behaviors, she explained herself, her situation, what she was doing, and that she needed help. at least until she manipulated the event screen and got Lilac to cross into the dev menu. she couldn't do anything towards the people in the game itself, due to her lack of code making it impossible for her to enter the game as Sash did. ![]() when Sash entered the game, the feline began doing everything in her power to undo what Sash did, or at least make herself more powerful. she escaped, hiding amongst other assets in the Clickteam dev menu. she vibed with other cut designs of the main cast until Perfect Sash began her rampage. In Left For Revenge, she had a little code tied to her, but the vast majority of what made her up is filler. ![]() the unused feline was intended to be used as an NPC (likely in a hub tied to Relic Maze), but was cut for a second time. she was sprited over when Ziyo Ling gave Strife the permission to use Carol. Strife sprited the character not long into the development of Freedom Planet, intending her to be Lilac's player two. the shine on her shirt has been interpreted by Hyper as a heart pattern. she has a darker orange belt with a silver buckle, silver bases to her boots, and no scarf. she wears clothes almost identical to Carol's, only difference is that they have an orange and green motif rather than Carol's black and green. Carrie is a black feline with a silver muzzle and blonde hair, her tail being long and thin with a silver tip. ![]() If you’re shopping for a three-row luxury SUV, make sure this one’s on your wishlist.īecome an AutoGuide insider. I can tell you it was one of the most relaxing, with a hard-to-beat mix of tech, comfort, power, and agility. Family members who count Range Rovers, Jaguars, and Volvos amongst their garages all wanted to poke around the big Bimmer, and all came away impressed with its swanky cabin and stately looks.Īt a starting price of $78,845 ($110,980 CAD) including destination, the 2023 BMW X7 xDrive40i is hardly the most affordable holiday road trip vehicle. It was comfortable enough for family members to fall asleep in after a night of carol sing-alongs and a very competitive White Elephant gift exchange. With the third row folded flat, the BMW easily fit our gifts, overnight bags, and various other pieces of holiday detritus without issue. The best part of the X7 experience is that the SUV never missed a beat during a very stressful time of the year. More automakers should be allowing this already.SEE ALSO: 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS 580 Review: Wafting Wunderkind ![]() The former worked without issue all holiday season, and Apple Maps directions even integrate with the instrument panel and head-up display. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are both standard. Touchscreen responses are quick too, and the voice assistant can handle simple requests easily. There’s excellent contrast, so the blacks stay black, minimizing nighttime glow. It feels weird to refer to a 14.9-inch touchscreen as modest, but the X7’s twin-panel setup (the other being the 12.3-inch instrument panel) is close. The other nitpick: having to bring up the main climate control menu every time we want to adjust seat or wheel heating. The old physical button setup was preferable here. Only one small problem, literally: the custom menu button is tiny, and on the far side of the touchscreen. Once you’ve found your favorites, it’s easy to pin them to a custom menu. The new system has a reasonable learning curve: the biggest hurdle is making sense of the myriad icons in the main menus. Thankfully, outside of one instance, we never needed to stick actual humans back there, so the third row stayed down for additional cargo storage.īMW has upgraded that central touchscreen to iDrive 8. When you’re standing in the middle of one of those is-the-snow-blowing-upwards storms, the casual collapse is an eternity. Similarly, there’s another powered seating aspect that drew complaints: the slow fold of the powered third row. ![]() Mercs do a better job here, as do Volvos. I still couldn’t feel much, unless it was the lower cushion portion of the massage. Not really, no: I despise the feeling of being buckled up in a big jacket, so I tend to take off outerwear before starting a drive. “But Kyle, weren’t you driving around in the depths of winter, bundled up in a winter coat?” you might ask. Even on the most aggressive setting, the X7’s front seats were too light in their approach. That might seem incredibly picky, but this is a flagship model we’re talking about. On the subject of throne-related drawbacks, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the weaksauce massage function. Tuesday’s will be the second total lunar eclipse this year, after one in May. The last total lunar eclipse that occurred on November 8, 2022, thrilled skywatchers worldwide, the next total lunar eclipse also known as a blood moon lunar eclipse won't happen. There’s no special viewing equipment necessary to see May 15th’s celestial show. They will have to wait until the next one in 2025, or settle for numerous partial lunar eclipses until then. Don’t worry about digging them out for tonight’s Lunar Eclipse. While those in South America will be able to see some of the lunar eclipse on Tuesday if the weather cooperates, Africa, the Middle East and most of Europe will not, sadly, get a chance to view it. Observers can improve their viewing with binoculars and telescopes, and they should hope for clear skies. According to scientists with Nasa, the moon will be 242,740 miles (390,553km) away from Earth. The eclipse will appear reddish-orange from the light of Earth’s sunsets and sunrises, creating what is known as a blood moon. The eclipse’s totality will last nearly 90 minutes – from 5.16am to 6.41am ET – as Earth passes directly between the moon and sun.

Paco Ramone or Cisco Ramon began his career as Vibe shortly after Aquaman disbanded the original Justice League. ![]() His Break-dancing motif was also influenced by the popularity of the fad at the time.Ĭharacter Evolution Post-Crisis Post-Crisis Vibe Vibe was one of three new teenage characters introduced to the team in the same single issue which served as the first origin of all three (the other two were Steel and Gypsy). CreationĪt the time when Vibe was created, the comics industry was being dominated primarily by titles featuring teenage superheroes (such as the X-Men or the Teen Titans.) It was thus decided to redesign the Justice League of America and to give them a similar roster. He later begins to question his role after a fight with Kid Flash. Although he kills it and agrees to cooperate as to becoming Vibe and a founding member of the Justice League of America, it is later revealed neither Gunn nor his superior were sure of whether this Parademon was the same Parademon that attacked and killed Armando Ramon. ![]() He was eventually followed by a member of A.R.G.U.S., Agent Dale Gunn under the orders of Amanda Waller, who offered him the chance to kill the same Parademon that took his brother's life. Thanks to his powers there wasn't any type of recording device digital or photographic that could capture his face or identity. He kept his powers a secret over the next five years helping people as he could. ![]() The process left Cisco's body altered, allowing him to create not only seismic vibrations but also to be able to sense beings from other dimensions, even as small as an insect. Without thinking, his oldest brother, Armando pulled his brother out of the boom tube at the cost of his own life making him the first civilian killed by the Darkseid invasion while their middle brother, Dante couldn't help but watch. Francisco "Cisco" Ramon was the youngest of three brothers, during a game between the brothers, Cisco stepped into a boom tube created by Darkseid. It’s also not necessary for the technology,” Ellman says about the current rules. Because of safety concerns, getting these waivers approved can take a long time, according to the FAA, which says it has approved 162 thus far. As of the end of October, there were six additional companies in the queue, including Zipline, according to the FAA.īut a major hurdle still remains: Without a waiver, drones can’t be operated out of sight-meaning that at least one human must have an eye on the drone during its entire flight. Only UPS, Alphabet’s Wing, and, most recently, Amazon have been granted the full certification. Then earlier this year it created a new certification that lets commercial pilots fly drones at night and over people’s heads without first receiving a waiver. In 2016 it clarified how companies can use drones. “They’re all regulated in the same way,” she says. ![]() FAA regulations were created with large passenger jets in mind-not five-pound unmanned drones. ![]() “In some ways it’s like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole,” says Lisa Ellman, executive director of the Commercial Drone Alliance, a drone policy and advocacy organization. The problem is that Federal Aviation Administration regulations weren’t written for drones. Though drones have disrupted wildlife, and a series of crashes raised questions about their safety, current debate lies in how, not whether, to allow drones in U.S. Meanwhile, Alphabet, through its subsidiary Wing, is setting up a drone port in a Walgreens parking lot in Dallas to deliver orders to the nearby towns of Frisco and Little Elm. UPS is ferrying health care supplies from Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist’s central lab and pharmacy in Winston-Salem, N.C., to nearby facilities, and it’s delivering prescription medication via drone to a retirement community in Florida. Since then, drones have transported Domino’s pizzas, Chipotle burritos, and 7-Eleven Slurpees. ![]() It was Australian startup Flirtey that made the first federally approved drone delivery a quadcopter flew just over six minutes roundtrip to deliver medicine in Virginia. Yet the wait continues.Īs for gifts being delivered by drone during the current busy holiday shopping season, forget about it.ĭrone package deliveries started to take off-literally-on July 17, 2015, more than one and a half years after Amazon’s initial drone announcement. And since the COVID pandemic began, demand for contactless delivery has only increased-including for medical supplies. The technology is ready to go, drone companies say. Zipline, Google parent Alphabet, UPS, and Amazon have made thousands of flights. airspace regulation has, apart from small tests, kept most drones grounded. Eight years after Jeff Bezos stunned the world by announcing that Amazon shoppers would eventually get their packages delivered by drone a mere 30 minutes after ordering, U.S. For now, Zipline is flying its drones in Pea Ridge only during good weather.Ĭompanies seeking federal approval for drone deliveries have faced major turbulence. And Britton tells me the drone-despite being able to withstand rain along with high winds and extreme temperatures-is grounded. The screen shows the routes of the project’s first deliveries, which began in mid-November to a handful of Walmart employees. “Our very first customer is right there,” says Evan Britton, flight operations lead for Zipline, the drone company overseeing the distribution site for Walmart, pointing to a wall monitor. When it reaches the intended customer’s home, the drone is supposed to hover, open a door in its fuselage, and drop a blue box tethered to a parachute so it can glide gently to the ground. A drone pilot is running through a flight check for one of the aircraft, which resembles an airplane, but with only an 11-foot wingspan. ![]() There’s a mini airport in that location’s back parking lot, where a fleet of five drones will take off and land, ferrying prescription pills, vitamins, and COVID-19 tests to customers up to 50 miles away. Behind its store in tiny Pea Ridge, Ark., Walmart is experimenting with the future. ![]() Coilovers and Bushings are the usual go to mods.
