I wonder if the Zentradi Variable Power suit may have inspired Miyatake later when he did the Orguss Flier...just sort of 'tuck it all back there' and give it enough thrust to push through the air.

LOL blast from the past We mailed those Yamato hip replacements ages ago to forum members, and for the last, lets say 10 years, I had put out the remaining replacements in a 'freebie' box at my booth at the MWCon/Super Dimension Cons for those poor souls who needed them. I think last year we might have finally run out, but I can check my packed up boxes if one is there, its been a while. I'll look in the next week or two and ping you if successful. I don't recall if this was re-enforced ver 2 hip or just another same-design replacement. I suspect the latter? S

Uhmmm....wowza! I totally missed that build, incredible!!

And breaking out the Zentradi Word Stamp translation guide The Zentradi is english transcribed
-
We'll need to translate the Zentradi and see how accurate it is. If it is machine translated, then SOMEONE wrote a translator for it.

In case you toy fans don't hit the book section, in the new Kawamori Design works book, they finally published some pics of a 1/55 Genocide(Stampede proto) toy with armor mockup. https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/gp/product/4797397187 Someone here make this happen ok? http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/29133-macross-books/?do=findComment&comment=1560160

I accidently picked up mine by the obi slip and it promptly unrolled and crashed down on the floor, so be careful of the extra heft in the book Almost lost a toe. What exactly is in the other book you got from Amazon? I've not bought that one yet.
-
OMG-Genocide Valkyrie toy mockup! Wow....gotta get this pic to the 1/55 customizers here to let them know this NEEDS to be done (Sorry crappy phone pics, but it gives you motivation to go buy the book!)
-
Wow! Ordered on the 6th, got the book today. Very large box, very heavy book. Lots and lots of pictures, many I've never seen before. Order this book now and get it by the weekend for some nice reading! YES it has English translations (And Zentradi too LOL) https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/gp/product/4797397187 For you game fans, there are entire sections devoted. Some nice nuggets for toy fans too-like a design for an integrated heat shield. Gonna go away now and read more, but order this if you haven't, I think you will be very happy!! S
-
Wonder if we'll see some more of the "Advanced Valkyrie" Series as well! (VF-3000 is my favorite by far, still surprised no one has attempted a toy of this) Delivery for me says Thursday
-
Yeah- I had that 'gigantic' white envelope in the middle of the 2 boxes in this pic, so that contaminated my $150 shipping experience. Thinking about it now I bet if I would have shipped them individually I bet I could have saved 50% LOL Buyee doesn't apparently make any attempt to optimize shipping, they just throw everything into a bigger box and let it go as is.
-
Now I know why my Focker cost $400 ($250 + $150 shipping) Box within a box. At least it is MIB here :P
-
Yah...you are right....anything I click on says dec 15th, so it is on stock, sweet!
-
So in stock Dec 15th? (If I understand that?)
-
Maybe we'll see some other design variations like the VF-1C too? Should be released now...so where it be?!
-
Maybe we'll see some additional fan made customs based on the new art from the books-like the Angel Birds early version color he put in the book vs the 'official' one.
-
there is an actual video of them going on the printer https://twitter.com/MasterFileblog Wow-this book is going to be epic! His VF-1J mockup for the TIA #1 cover wow wow
-
Well you have to remember I am starting from my $400 focker, so if I can get a 2nd one $310 shipped , I'm working towards my own personal DX price normalization.
-
Awesome that prices are dropping. Maybe I can secure a 2nd one and lower my average purchase price
-
I hope it has his box art drawings/sketches he did for the model kits...I did not know they existed until I got the recent hobby Japan retro special. Come on hlj... send me the its arrived notification
-
I only see the option to have "mobile navigation bar" option at the bottom, sorry I can ask the theme creator if this is an option. Would turning it off be an option? (if it is just in the way and you don't use it?) There is a little sliding switch icon at the top that allows you to at least hide it if it gets in the way
-
No extra protective packaging, box is 3300 grams, or 7.2 pounds. Really curious how this thing is packed. Maybe it was safety packed, then stuffed into a larger box as was mentioned before Will find out in a couple days when I get my $400 focker!
-
Anyone weigh one of these? Curious how many grams it weighs? (to reconcile my shipping costs) S
-
Got one for 250 via buyee/tenso Dhl is 150....WTH did they pack it in??? I win.

This is about the scale I'd like it... https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n476651234
