Aaron Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 (edited) Wow, I thought that they'd given up on these, looks like they'll now be out in September http://www.hlj.com/product/CMS65031 Anyone want to have a guess who's going to be in this latest line up? Edited June 22, 2005 by Aaron Quote
EXO Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 (edited) Can't wait... my guess Minmay...of course Max (hopefully for the Qrau) Claudia Sivil Jin and for the suprise - no clue... the last one threw mw off a bit. MAybe the Max Qrau Pilot. They should really do that. Edited June 21, 2005 by >EXO< Quote
Godzilla Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Hopefully Max, Bridge bunnies, Claudia, Capt. Global Quote
hirohawa Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 I am so happy they are making these. I hope we have Max Roy in his grey TV flight suit Claudia Capt Gloval Kakizaki Max in Q rau flight suit Can't wait to pick up a couple of sets Quote
bigkid24 Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Well, I'm happy about it. I'll probably buy a couple of boxes. Quote
Graham Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 That's great news that we're getting a set #3. While, I'd like to see some Macross Plus figures, especially Isamu and Guld in flight suits, it's unlikely as CM's haven't touched Macross Plus in the past. My guess for the line up is: - 1) Shin in flight suit (M0). 2) Ray or Viffidas (M7). 3) Max in Q-Rau Flight Suit (DYRL). 4) Nora in flight suit (M0). 5) Shower scene Minmay (DYRL) 6) Mystery Figure ??????? (maybe Gubaba). Graham Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 OMG!!! Finally!!! man, they better make a max of the qrau!!! the rest I don't really care. As long as they come out with a new set!!! Quote
Aaron Posted June 21, 2005 Author Posted June 21, 2005 Hobby Search, has got the first pics up Not sure but I think the line up is- 1) Q-Rau Max 2) ??? 3) Misa? 4) Minmay? 5) Isamu Chase) VF-1S Cockpit Can't wait for some clearer pics Quote
Graham Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Hobby Search, has got the first pics upNot sure but I think the line up is- 1) Q-Rau Max 2) ??? 3) Misa? 4) Minmay? 5) Isamu Chase) VF-1S Cockpit Can't wait for some clearer pics On the third pic, it mentions Macross 7 underneath. I'm guessing Mylene in a skirt holding flowers. 2nd pic is definitely Minmay Damn, a VF-1S cockpit is boring, just a repaint of the last chase from set #2. They should have done a cutaway YF-19 cockpit instead. Graham Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 hopefully max comes with an extra body or at least legs and arms so you could slip him into his q-rau...the 3rd one might be millia or it might be mylene...or some hot chick charactor!! i'm hoping the second one is misa in screet clothes but it looks like minmay with the that green and yellow dress she wore in the last episode of the tv series.... Quote
Graham Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Ah, stupid me, #3 is the Flower Girl from Macross 7. You know, the chick who's always trying to give Basara flowers. Graham Quote
Guest Bromgrev Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 (edited) Combining my one-legged Japanese with that fuzzy printing, it looks like it says "flower girl" under that 3rd picture. Does that mean anything? Not having seen Macross 7, myself. EDIT: Just snapped the last leg of my kanji ... Edited June 21, 2005 by Bromgrev Quote
Graham Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 OK, so the line up looks like: - 1) Max in DYRL Q-Rau flight suit. 2) Minmay in DYRL opening concert outfit. 3) Flower Girl from Macross 7. 4) Unknown, but possibly Minmay in UN Spacy uniform. 5) Isamu in flight suit, Mac Plus. 6) Cutaway VF-1S cockpit. Graham Quote
EXO Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Wow... This set looks good. They finally got a M+ character in. And no Zero. I was really hoping they make the whole Fire Bomber band since I already have Basara. Oh well, I guess he stays in the box. Quote
Anubis Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 (edited) I guess I may have to get the set then, just for the DYRL-opening Minmay and Isamu. Maybe. That's about enough from that set for me. Come on, the FLOWER GIRL?! Of all the characters in the series they pick one that IIRC never said a full sentence in the entire series. She just waited like an idiot in a series long running gag to give Basara flowers and always failing until right before the end battle when she threw them to him. WASTED FIGURE. Also, I REALLY wish they'd stop making even more Minmays and get to making other characters. Shinn deserves one. They also need a Sharon, Guld, and Myung. The opening concert Minmay will be a nice figure, but more characters would be nice. If that actually is another Minmay in uniform then that would be just plain wrong. If it's Shiyami then sweet, release some bridge bunny goodness. A set of the bunnies and a Captain Global would be awesome. However for them to do a Shiyami figure they should have done a Claudia first. At least this is a clue they'll do a set 4. With an Isamu figure and possible a Shiyami in this one.

Renato Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 my rendition1) Max in DYRL Q-Rau flight suit. 2) Minmay in DYRL opening concert outfit. 3) Flower Girl from Macross 7. 4) Shiyami from DYRL from the bridge of the SDF-1. 5) Isamu in flight suit, Mac Plus. 6) Cutaway VF-1S cockpit DYRL version Noel #4 is Shamii. You know, the little squeaky girl from SDF and DYRL. Was it always just six figures? Or were there more in the other sets? Might be worth getting a Max. But I agree that the Flowe Girl is a wasted figure, as is the VF-1S cockpit (just a repaint). At least we get an Isamu. I really wanted a Sharon Apple, or maybe a shower Minmay, as Graham mentioned.

Renato Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Jin You're kidding, right?? They'll never even make a Shiba or Enicar, or even Mahara (hottest girl in Macross)! Well, I'm sure you're joking. Quote
Renato Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Think it is Shiyami rather than Shamii Noel OK.... but, it's not, sorry. Quote
Renato Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 OK, the Macross Compendium says the official spelling is Shammy, so let's go with that. Quote
jipe Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Why another VF 1 cockpit ??!!! There are so many characters in Macross Did you notice HLJ (CM's) sell a box of 12 pieces now. For the other series we could just take one trading figure... (for the ones that can resist to not purchase more ) Quote
EXO Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Jin You're kidding, right?? They'll never even make a Shiba or Enicar, or even Mahara (hottest girl in Macross)! Well, I'm sure you're joking. I meant Shin... Since they had Mao and Sara I figured they would do another Mac 0 character. And I always thought it was Shammy... I was wondering who Shiyami was. Quote
Nightbat Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Preordered! Ok: People who bought this also like: 1/6 Kasumi C2 Ver PVC Figure Which one of you pervs has preordered the same statue as me Quote
Anubis Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 (edited) I thought it was Shammy too, but wasn't sure so I used the spelling because BlackAces used. Thinking about it I don't even need Isamu really since I don't have a YF-19 to put Isamu in front of. Damn vaporware. I only have 1 CM figure on display: Roy, next to his 1/48 1S. I also have Misa but I put her away in favor of the ARII 1/6 scale figure. I would like another Hikaru though. Shouldn't have given him up. Edited June 21, 2005 by Anubis Quote
Bob_Coffee Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 Kick ass, an Isamu figure!, now i might just have to repaint my VF-19A to original YF-19 colors. or get a hase YF-19. right now i only have Roy and Misa from CMS set 2 displayed. but i have plenty of shelf space for more. too bad Cms set 1 wasnt re realised. i had the chance to pic some up last year but i didnt realise it>.< Quote
Solscud007 Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 But wait dont forget that the last set had 2 short packs. Mimei with desk and Cockpit cutaway. Quote
EXO Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 it's possible that Max may have replaceable legs and arms... it doesn't make sense that they don't have ont that will fit in the Qrau. Ugh.. I've fallen victim to speculating. Just consider it wishful thinking.... Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 Thinking about it I don't even need Isamu really since I don't have a YF-19 to put Isamu in front of. Damn vaporware. if you have a VF-11B then you have a place to display Isamu...an 11B is good enough for me Quote
obakesan Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 (edited) interesting news. Though bit strange as tried the original link that was posted, but HLJ came back with a page not found error. Did a search and find the figures under a different product number!? http://www.hlj.com/product/CMS65031 Edited June 22, 2005 by obakesan Quote
Godzilla Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 Cool. So it is the one of the bridge bunnies. Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 I'm just wondering why they posed the bridge bunny that way. Looks like a cover of a hentai dvd or something. Quote
bigkid24 Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 Nice to see this line isn't dead. Hopefully they'll be able to finish at least one line of characters for a series. I'm all over these when they come out. Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted June 22, 2005 Posted June 22, 2005 My Rendition1) Max in DYRL Q-Rau flight suit. 2) Minmay in DYRL opening concert outfit. 3) Flower Girl from Macross 7. 4) Shiyami from DYRL from the bridge of the SDF-1. 5) Isamu in flight suit, Mac Plus. 6) Cutaway VF-1S cockpit DYRL version Woohoo, an Isamu flightsuit!!! What I find interesting is this time, CMS hasn't even bothered to disguise the chase figure? While it didn't take long at all the determine what the chase figure was from Series 2, it seems anti-climactic that the chase has been revealed during the pre-order stage. As for those who are complaining about too many Minmay's and the Flower Girl, don't forget that most Japanese fanboys go apeshit over Macross' underage girls. These are probably the same figures that will drive the sales for CMS. It appears that we Americans are the only ones who want Isamu, Guld, Roy, etc. From that perspective, I'm glad we got Max and Isamu this time. And dammit, where's my TV Skull Squadron?!!? Quote
