Maybe at the Amico event on 8/4, we get the Amico mascot reveal?  Wouldn't that be something?

It would bring me great joy if @nurmix was wearing it for the reveal. Also it must be a furry costume that he is wearing.

The guy on the video who opens this page is a perfect example of the level of debate people "against" the Amico offer.

 

Very informative video, even if for different reasons that intended.

 

Just make sure you don't watch more than 5 minutes for your own mental health.

I think mental health problems are very common in the haters group.

Love it and I’d buy it if it existed. (Now we need to get the animated Amico logo with DRL singing Jump at just the right moments.)

 

Unfortunately, I think the Van Halen song most likely to go with the Amico at this point is, I’ll Wait... Until Sometime After 10/10/20.

Maybe Nintendo should make the sex machine? They've come so close already. :lolblue:  Unless, we're actually talking about James Brown. Then it should be Tommy.

Will the event be recorded for those of us unable to watch live and must you watch live to be eligible for the prize if you win?

Hey Tommy,

the founders edition lapel pin is a sexy piece of merch. I was wondering it will become available from the IE website at any time?

That would be something, as well as the metal RFID cards that you could buy, but those are probably reserved for the Founder editions.  Maybe something as nice but a little different for us common folk?

just need to print it on vinyl, aka car wrap and you can have the console wrapped anyway you want

I get frustrated trying to put a screen protector on perfectly flat cell-phone without any air bubbles or dust specs trapped under it.

 

I can just imagine the anger management issues I’d have trying to get a wrap just perfect on an Amico.

3M wrap breathes so there really isnt any bubbles anymore.  Just have to worry about creases ( not that big a worry).. hardest part is curves, you need to use heat to get it to apply correctly on the curves.

It would be like labo but with a compressor and air up doll. Sneakyv would be the 1st customer

I thought the NASA shirt was a shout out to @RxScram  Do we know what he looks like? Was that him?

That’s what I was thinking, is that him?

I was in Florida for the CRS-11 launch

I was there for CRS-4 in Sept. 2014.  My brother had an experiment that was sent up to the space station.  The launch pad wasn’t at the refurbished Shuttle pad used in CRS-11, so we weren’t at the main viewing site you were at.  We were in a building the was next to the Vehicle Assembly Building with roof access for viewing the launch, which was still just as close (about 3 miles out from the pad). Space X treated us like VIPs,  it was an awesome experience!

Grudge posted a picture of me on page 832. 

Yup, saw that after I posted.  I should have read a little further before posting that question.  I love all things space program related, so the fact that you worked on a Mars rover is just fantastic!

Do you work at NASA?  I'm a huge fan of NASA and spaceflight in general, and I was in Florida for the CRS-11 launch in June 2017 for a #NASASocial.  Great experience, and look forward to doing it again!

I love the picture of you holding the space shuttle box in front of the launch pad!

Since NASA is the topic and as an example, the youtuber who opens this page says that NASA was wasting too much money until you-know-who came in and limited their budget.

 

It's one of the many things that were said in the video, just like the part when he says that all IE employees are volunteers. Really difficult to keep track or make a list, and I don'r really recommend trying it.

It would be sweet to see some Running Man cufflinks. If not the woodgrain,  perhaps in onyx-black and silver.

What in the world?  I started watching this, guy can't go 30 seconds without dropping an F-bomb.  OK fine, some people speak like that, just not my cup of tea.  So I skip ahead to see some points, he's raising ok points about some of the games and not wanting to "go back in time" and the Amico games might not be for him. Then near the end he drops his dream of a VR-sex system and thought Tommy should have gone that route.  Forget fun for the family and kids, that market is ok, let's all invest in a virtual reality sex machine.  I can't believe what I just watched. lol

Check out this guys shirt. I'm guessing it's supposed to be some sort of a "tough" Transformers/skeleton hybrid... but it looks more like Sonic the Hedgehog.

 

Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
