  1. Damn, you guys are really getting me down with all the 'robocrap' talk and what not. If you don't want to buy it fine, but try to stop all the echo-chamber negativity. Damn. Not sure what you are all seeing, but I definitely see an improvement in picture quality and not just cranking up the brightness and sharpening. While I'll hold out for a possible Japanese language set with english subs, I'm also able to recognize that this picture looks really good. Definitely interested in the source material they were able to get for this.
  2. Stupid thought, but thought I would share my madness here a bit So this auction was around for quite a while...just a simple Hasegawa VE-1...they listed it with the box art upside down. From this angle I thought 'that sure looks like a Zeta Gundam Wave Rider and then went ...huh' Then this showed up, mis-transformed, and I went 'huh' again. Like I said...stupid thoughts!
  3. In the 80's movie Spies Like Us, jump to 3:14 or you can see it on HBO Max. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ya0dXDKalVc See those 4 white greebles? Them be VF-1 Legs from a Macross model kit! (Movie was released 1985) And in the front, are some VF-1 Shoulders Both I am thinking from the 1/144 Imai kit, will need to check!
  4. Wild guess...maybe these items came out BEFORE the actual episodes were animated, and they were created from the storyboards?
  5. Its on a shitajiki too https://twitter.com/SDFMCollection/status/1370655369165475841
  6. OK, we are back to 2018...finally. Restored the old wordpress site, this is the last of old migration I had on the list, we are now complete. https://www.macrossworld.com/the-ultimate-yoshiyuki-takani-macross-collection/ Now on to new things! S
  7. Good point, I might have gotten a little loose when cleaning up some forever pinned items S
  8. Just saw that news...very sad indeed
  9. Sweet! I guess the surface shipping box with that PF Vf-4 was finally delivered to @jenius house!
  10. Little maintenance tonight, all done. S
  11. Uh, VF-31D "Bass Masters" edition? (with a Tuna?) This is just too weird NOT to own https://www.hlj.com/v-f-g-macross-f-vf-31d-skuld-sp-aos06180
  12. Yeah-was up a few days ago when we did our server migration. Suspect he is just doing some maintenance too
  13. Dang it there are 5...gotta check the personal archives now!
  14. That Animage event sounds incredible. I did NOT know those mini posters were meant for TRAINS at the time, wow! I for sure do not have all 5 of them though...I did not know there were that many, Gotta find the missing ones! I'd also really like to know what exact DYRL poster was thought lost in a fire, and for what fan group it was reprinted for. (at 2:07:00) Is that why I see so many of the DYRL movie posters on YJ lately? Are those reprints?
  15. What approx scale do you think those are?
  16. Model kit 'related'...but the original artist Ryukoh Masuo has posted his GBP full size and pre-vis drawings on twitter...absolutely incredible!!!!!! https://twitter.com/RyukowMasuo/status/1344223398163935233/photo/1
  17. Nice!!! I've got volumes #1 & #2...now to go get #3!! Uhmm...wow, I would not want to mess with that... Deskyrie? Delkyrie Valkroid?
  18. Working on some EMAIL bugs....will have sorted out shortly Shawn
  19. I finally got my first 1/20,..in transit now. Got it from the generic Yahoo Shopping site. Condition 'used' ($168) but everything intact. Domestic shipping to the proxy was free so saved some money there too. Fedex air shipping was $51 from the proxy to California which seems like a good deal for dipping my toes into the large scale. Also got the missile set for $66, but that is shipping separately, because if I combined the two, I would be in Strike Fighter shipping territory...ouch!
  20. Their page is insane...first of they are motorizing it, and then look at the micro version that does arms and wings https://twitter.com/smdk30
  21. That is MacrossWorld's version of Flashback 2012 The main page ran wordpress which I've still got to install on the server, so I just put up the legacy page as a placeholder.
  22. now we need GREEN tipped missiles spinach cans or maybe someone can do a custom and put in Budweiser cans for a beach-party gbp
  23. Found this on @Tochiros twitter thingy.. We are one step closer to a self transforming valk...one day!! Click the video to see it in action
  24. I always tried to use that as my reasoning for the oddness in the painting (what else could it be thinking logically), but the prometheus and daedalus are also just hanging back without any real support...and they are much much heavier than a hollow cannon. but then again, if takani painted those hanging straight down too to alleviate joint stress due to gravity we'd see all the destroids bulging against the daedalus front door and valkyries falling out the flight elevators strewn across the landscape...or maybe that already happened and that is why the valkyries are flying up from the ground as they fell out of the nest.
  25. Another great episode, but I did HATE you for saying ....lets save the BGI TOPIC for the end haha
