All idols, no valkyries gets the big WTF from me. But that’s what Kawamori has directed to be aired in April according to ANN.
These figures are old news but I’m not so hip on the statue front. According to these new posts on mynavi.jp, these figures should come out in 2 months.
Macross model kit box artist Tenjin Hidetaka has been commissioned for the new Sony Pictures Productions of the Shinji Aramaki directed “Starship Troopers: Invasion”. There’s so much awesome in that one sentence that I’m just going to go ahead and quote Anime News Network.
NAMCO BANDAI Games Inc. has released a new simulation RPG for the PSP, the “Super Robot Wars Z Hen world again” second.
The new version to be released April 5 will feature Basara and Gamlin, as well as Alto.
The video should be set up to start where the Fire Bomber himself appears and then watch Gamlin destroy a Vajra. Rewind to see Alto.
The second model to be released by Hasegawa from Dengeki Hobby’s Macross The Ride Serialization is Chelsea Scarlett’s VF-11B “Nothung 2”, (the first being the “Rose GuryuneSilt’s Thunder Focus”.) Hidetaka Tenjin will once again provide the box art.
Cf18 posted a recent interview at the Japanese site, GA Graphics, with the toy engineers that is currently designing the 1/60 VF-4G Lightning at Yamato. Accompanying the interview is a good number of renders and CAD drawings. Some we’ve seen before, but now with much more clarity.

Once again, master model builder “Cool8or” has completed one of his beautiful pieces. This time he tackled another mech from MW’s own Captain America’s 1/72 line, the Zentradi Regult Scout Type. Not his first from that line, Cool8tor continues to showcase his talent and technique, not only choosing the beautiful colors for the standard scheme, but applying weathering that makes it hard to believe that what you’re looking at in these photographs are tiny scaled models.
Member ahiachris posted that more super-deformed kits are going to be sold at the MetalBox booth. This time it’s the three remaining Destroids. The Tomahawk, Defender and the Phalanx.
We recently saw the Spartan HERE among the other Metalbox SD Macross kits. These new kits are seen in color as opposed to the recent pictures where all the samples were only primered. According to the MetalBox site, the kits paint application were inspired by the Arii model box art. Reading further using online translation tools, I’m judging that these will be unpainted, unassembled kits. We’ll find out Feb 12.
Check out the post HERE and then see the MetalBox site here.

Hi fellow Macross fans! The MW staff is proud to present the new main page. Following the upgrade of the forums and its new look we’re finally ready to reveal the place where we will be posting the latest news in the world of Macross. We’ll still be using the forums to discuss the shows, toys, models and music but this will be a great way to keep tabs and archive all the significant events, announcements and milestones that concern our favorite anime franchise. We hope you enjoy the new site and thanks for making this a great place to be.
