My friend and I will be selling some extra stuff this year at the Pasadena Comic Con-stop by and grab a loose 1/55 and some other Macross goodies left over from the SDCon Chris Barretta (OG 1/55 Custom heads) will also be at the con-I need to find out WHERE though...he has the coolest stuff for sale too! The Valcutron will also make a return appearance to get gauge public opinion on the best large scale VF-1 toy!

Reminds me of the shiny red Iron Man suit from the first movie...love it -
can't wait to wake up tomorrow and see where it ends up https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/madoverlord/macross-ii-lovers-again-alus-edition/description Someday if anyone ever figures out how to get DYRL outside of Japan, I bet it would easily break a million

Just 7k to go for 4k-crazy

Mercy Rabbit is doing the package art? So no Tenjin for this release? Can't wait to see how it looks.

That is from one of the Mandarake Zenbu magazines...I have it somewhere deep in the archives Sorry cannot remember which issue off hand, but maybe a google search could turn up something Mandarake Zenbu Takatoku or something like that まんだらけZENBU タカトク マクロス this could be it https://paypayfleamarket.yahoo.co.jp/item/z246683944

I compared my Comic Con 2023 Signed edition to the one from Amazon released last week and they are identical, could not find any differences Just noting things 'for the record' on the topic of it expecting to be different

So to get the UHD, I just wait until after the initial campaign is over (in 13 days), then there will be a new $10 upgrade option right? Unless of course it gets to the $350k tier (here is hoping!) From the project: "Backers who want to receive a Blu-ray / UHD combo (2 discs instead of 1) will be able to add-on UHD for $10 post-campaign. In addition, the 4K materials will also be used to author the Blu-ray release." "PS: The reason the UHD add-on has to be post-campaign is that once we create an add-on, we can't remove it, and if we hit the second stretch goal, it becomes redundant."

leahLooking back I don't recall seeing on on the tv volumes either, so guess there are at least a few.
-
I can't ever recall , but maybe someone's brain here might? Have you ever seen either of these books with an OBI ? I've seen pretty much every other Macross book with one, but never these two.

Wow that looks phenomenal-love it

HLJ charged me $69 bucks to So Cal....2x Queads and 1x Max with the shipping discount. Geez rates seem high again
-
They've been selling on YJ for 28000-30000 yen, and with the current exchange rate comes out to about $215, then add in intra-japan shipping for $10 and international for $30ish and you are looking at $250ish to your door Amazon US was $208, but now $218 with free shipping, but you'll need to add in sales tax, and a March delivery date So as of today its pretty much the same in price, but on YJ you can get it in a couple weeks vs waiting Not sure why the releases for the US are always a few months behind, but they are consistent in this process. I'd love to see a simultaneous event in the future.

Its at 128k....geez! Amazing turnout
-
Nice box variant collection!! Your patience led to some great quality examples. For the casual toy surfers, its all about the box's head laser cutouts and the feet. There are 4 'variants' throughout the VF-1J production.

if only these Macross items were made. unproduced and never made stuff 1982-1985
Shawn replied to Swann's topic in Collectors
Imai 1/72 Fixed mode fighter kit. Still can't believe this was never offered. I swear there is a mocked up one in the Imai commercial. Only way to get fighter mode was the Variable kit. And a 1/72 Phalanx...like WHY not. Lastly some Nichimo Queads and Nousgadeul Gers...they would have been a decent size. They were cancelled for more valkyries, but did show up on a 'coming next' list in the beginning. We saw the Imai 1/72 Super O prototype...but they lost the Macross license and it never came out.

Yes-please share pics! I have this one, and a 'neutered' one where they removed all the fireworks for International Shipping, so packaging only. Oh well
-
Sweet-thank you for the heads up!
-
Wow-I've not seen those forever!! Which old-timer is getting out of collecting!? LOL You'll need to share some more pics of those when you can
-
Udon's page has shown 'sold out' for at least 2 months, when I first checked it there. Suspect they haven't updated it. I see no immediate difference between the comic con one/early bird specials that they sold at otakon vs the one shown there on ebay. Sure hope something is different. If not maybe there was a new agreement for the release between the publisher/licensor, or perhaps there never was an issue and its just weird production problems/internet drama/rumors. I'd love to see the index

trying to the completist in me

-
Nice ladders, and wow-nice shot!!! How many other custom accessories have you created there?
