  1. How come the white circles (always wondered when I see them on the sheets) Is the kite inside the red circle clear or something? Its not like they can't print white
  2. The Armored Valkyrie is great! It has vibes from the Sega Saturn Game for some reason in my brain (my favorite game) Love this.
  3. So far only the Angel Birds have this feature, and now the upcoming mechanic edition. Who knows what the future holds after the mechanic version. Maybe they will offer squadron options for future versions, like perhaps the cannon fodder. It would be cool to have a variety of squadron logos on the tailfins as an option down the road, instead of numbers #1-#5 like the angel birds. They could re-use all the same box inserts and all to save $
  4. I bought some poster portfolios this weekend and recently re-discovered a few prints I bought from you a few years ago! They are amazing, enjoyed seeing all the details again! Right now they are flattening out since they've been in the tube and in the dark for so long.

    Ah thanks! (Vol 13)...my brain was stuck on the upper corner with the '4' 😛 Yes-I have that one too
  6. Was thinking that soon it might be a good time for buyers to pick up a 2nd (or 3rd) VF-1S when these hit the markets Current price for solo VF-1S are more than 30,000 yen right now. With these hitting when you can get a Valk and Special/Normal Parts for 33,000 (locally) then it will surely drive some price adjustments for the single valks
  7. Thanks for the video! Nice to see it in action, look forward to picking on up on Yahoo Japan with a $150 buyer surcharge 😛 Would have been nice to see the Strike cannon and the arm have some details. A super bonus would have been to include 4 box missiles then the entire thing could be a self-contained DYRL final battle representation. (since they ditched the 2nd normal missile rack and have strike parts only, it is finale exclusive anyways, so just charge a little more and make it 100% complete)

    I thought I had all the Macross related issues too...what is Vol 13? Do you have a cover?
  9. I think you have to have 99% of them on this page Maybe a couple stragglers, but I suspect not many
  10. stainless steel focker cup
  11. here is one more..might be in another thread. hard to get the right angles for the light to show
  12. I think I have 2 more to add
  13. Hello fellow Macross Contest Trophy collector! LOL There are Dozens of us...Dozens!
  14. Unfortunately it is just fan made-not canon but still cool

    I wonder if it will continue the trend of having english captions...hope so Sometimes there are little nuggets of trivia in the past volumes that are interesting to read without grabbing the phone translate function.
  16. Found this FAN MADE illustration tucked away in a poster box

    Deculture version LOL Interesting the book is presented portrait style (vs landscape) That is fine...just give the me obligatory 'we are so sorry but we must ask you to rotate the book' and give me full page pics!

    I want that poster too... Big jump in price between A4 and B4 I assume the B4 will be hardcover, and the A4 soft for that price difference.

    looks like a consolidation of everything he's done for tv and dyrl only to celebrate the 40th if one already had all his previous books will there be something new? if it had all his latest HMR it would be nice
  20. How about an limited release Empire Strikes Back poster by our favorite Macross Artists, Yoshiyuki Takani? The Snow troopers definitely look a bit more evil
  21. Wow-it really is $93.72, with overnight shipping, what a world These will be collectors editions soon when they change the model line to be HCM again 😛
  22. it can overnight it to me before 7am lol I love having this crazy option when you gotta have a macross fix.
  23. I see a positive aspect is that new fans to the series are willing to drop $120 on a collectible they don't know much about. That is not an insignificant amount to drop on a toy. If this was your first Macross toy since seeing a Jetfire from the 80's, I could understand being underwhelmed at the size and plastic. These would not be the comments made on the upcoming DX YF-19. Hope Bandai can make any needed marketing adjustments and keep thing moving forward! Maybe they switch back to "HCM" - High Complete Model, it would seem to fit the line better, and there is history there.
  24. Could you tell us more about this project? It looks very good.
