Ditch the singing teenage girl teams and give me something more like Macross Plus with some new-old school design valks from the Advanced Valkyrie project...like the freaking vf-3000 already. Its only been since 1985 since it debuted. The valks in the new series are so far divorced from the original designs, they don't seem like valkyries to me-or at least the original intention of what a valkyrie was...to fight giants one on one if necessary. I'd like a return to a simpler series, but I'm old and well outside the new target audiences. I only have my wallet to vote with, and I spend it on the old design stuff (DX VF-1/Hasegawa) Maybe throw old farts like me an OVA 4 part special or something to keep me interested in the new stuff, or this new Macross series turns into another 'not for me' set, and I cling to my original VF-1s and sit in the corner complaining. 😛

I'm using an Android phone and chrome, and no issues on those links Could you tell me your setup? (can be in PM if you want to keep it private) If I can repeat I'd like to give it a try

can you link a specific example? I can test and also submit a ticket to invision

Filling in some missing gaps in my old Model Graphix collection and was pleasantly surprised by this! Issue: November 1985

We've found some of the older posts had email subscriptions for emails that stopped working, so they got stuck in the queue on retry I can bring it back, just figured it would quiet down all our email noise

Well next year is MacrossWorld's 25th Anniversary....(since 1999) So if THAT doesn't make one feel old....jeez

Those Yamato catalogs are great!! I rarely see them come up! Just fantastic

I did not see the Arii 1/100 Regular Scout there, just the Small Missile, Large Missile, and Scout types (hundreds) I also did not see the Arii 1/72 VF-1S GBPS...that one is very very hard to find nowdays. They have many Robotech Changers, but I've never seen a 1/72 VF-1J Blue...just the Red. Here are some pics of the Robotech shelves...mind you they are 2 months old and Victor has been busy unboxing.

Oh WOW that is just incredible! WOW

anything specfic? I've been late in getting my visit to the warehouse report up, I could look through the pics though

Pre-Ordered a couple from Amazon US...1 week to go! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1772942502

I want them ALL....pack them up!

Holy Cow that is utterly amazing. Can you ship that to Torrance for the SDCon this year? I'd love to see it in person. A M A Z I N G ! ! !

Perhaps it could be used for pre-viz vs applied to an actual piece. All those images in the video still needed the original art to work from So maybe someone could rough sketch something, and this could fill out the gaps...sort of like the McQuarrie Star Wars works in the 70s'. I think it is 'pretty neat' seeing it applied to Macross, but I've not gone through the entire thought process on what it means to people's careers. It is still in the interesting stage for me, but I reserve the right to change my mind later on if it turns out to be super evil! 😛

Wow, that is just wild!

On ebay I saw someone who made some wall mounts for macross items...think it was for the Yamatos? Its been a month or so, so don't have a link, but I thought they looked pretty cool Will try to find the link tomorrow. When I saw them it reminded me of the event displays I remember individual parts being in their own comparment

I saw you are selling one of the shipping cases! Would love to see more pictures of the any cases as you dive deeper into the storage room! Please share This is a part of Macross history very very rarely seen https://www.ebay.com/itm/256054809971

That VF-1J is the iconic Box Art that inspired Tenjin on his incredible Art Career! And that VF-1S From Imai is a very cool kit too. So you are telling us you made some progress in the storage room? The room that I could not even walk 2 feet into? PLEASE share some pictures if you can! I'm dying to see what else you uncover in there. I wanted SO BAD to dive in, but time was ticking. It wraps about 25 feet to the right...looks just like this...or should I say looked? Floor to Ceiling.

Love those paint schemes that are simpler and follow the original series colors! (the weathering and panel lines are awesome, but sometimes I just like to go back when the kits looked like the anime a bit more!) Are you going to build one of every Macross kit in the warehouse? You could have quite the collection!

Welcome Vic! It was a wonderful meeting you in person! You have my dream job right now going through all those thousands of kits For those that don't do Facebook (like mw), could you send any direct links to the videos and builds? I'd love to see them. Shawn
