  1. the transcript https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4Hngnqylo8 I've got one of those original scripts
  2. I tried using Buyee to get it (deluxe) from here but they don't support that site https://a-onstore.jp/item/item-1000232378 https://p-bandai.jp/item/item-1000216012/
  3. so they do say a new film scanning techniques, but from the video they provided I still see blurry video. Wonder if they are doing some sort of AI type enhancements. colors are definitely more vibrant
  4. this part gives me hope "With this 4K remaster, I was surprised that even scenes that I felt were out of focus were so perfectly in focus."
  5. They released the user guide, but unfortunately it has nothing we've not seen before, aside form a different cover page Its all standard vf-1j stuff https://tamashiiweb.com/images/item/item_0000014921_DA399tTG_300.pdf the stand has the 50th logo and I guess if anyone really cares, the pilot is a monochrome DYRL version, not from the TV Guess if you don't get the TV hands you get the movie pilot Hikaru "Stealth" Iichijo
  6. oh...sorry...I can delete the ones I did I downloaded and posted from Irfanview...the pics are amazing. again sorry, I can delete my 2 posts with those pics if you want!
  7. Sorry the board doesn't do HEIC images by default. It is super annoying. I'll look around again for a plugin that might be available.
  8. Wow-incredible box art! We just needed some Artmic art and an Imai sticker and it would have sold like hotcakes. Wow.
  9. Some super cool insights to the member names here Mine is super simple-back in 1999 it was Shawn's & Graham's MacrossWorld...so gotta be Shawn! My avatar is the DYRL re-do that Garoquel did for the site way back when. Super talented artist!
  10. You are the king of VT-1 Ostrich cases...wow wow wow!!! An original Bandai 1/55 shipping case from 1985, unbelievable! Please make sure you put a note inside that case for your kids, so that way down the road when they sell off your toys from your estate, they don't ditch that as a generic cardboard box LOL Stock number on the case matches the box, just so cool!
  11. A case of Ostri? That is 6 right? Are you going to open them all up for inspection? Would love to see a pic of them. In 10 years we can look back at this thread it and go 'wow!' when they are all reselling for $800 each.
  12. thanks for the info for what I can look forward to 😛
  13. Any chance you could share some pics on disassembly-like for the tailfins? I'd like to see if I can glue/weld my VT-1 tailfin to the little nub inside, but need to open it up
  14. BTW...make sure to mind your yf-21 little bits! I had mine in battroid mode on the shelf moved my couch to vacuum and saw a shiny blue piece on the ground...it was the little edge piece, had no idea.
  15. Every few weeks I google Fujimi and Macross and nothing new is returned. I'm sure we'll see something someday. Hopefully not a lobster but a 1/700 ish scale Prometheus or something. It would be super great.
  16. That really does look amazing. And with the larger VF-19 size it isn't super small like the the VF-1s at 1/72 Very impressed!
  17. Where does it say its a 4k? I can't seem to find that info. I wonder if this is the same one they did last year that I went to? It def wasn't 4k Dir. Shoji Kawamori & Shinichiro Watanabe, 1995, 115 min., DCP, color, in Japanese with English subtitles. With Takumi Yamazaki, Unshou Ishizuka, Rica Fukami. If it is 4k, why isn't that going on the upcoming blu-ray?
  18. 5.3% of the gross yen price + $13 disbursement fee + $10.20 additional line items fee
  19. Annnnnnd the final cherry on top, since I got my VT-1 via fedex (using Buyee Air, which they chose the cheapest), I just now got a customs bill to pay on my broken tail fin toy of awesomeness. Just great.
  20. Does Bandai support only support from a retailer or from 'ebay'? Meaning if those embossed numbers on the back of the box are the same across the US based YF-21s, and the sticker is the same, could we make a claim to get a replacement antenna? Its a gray area I know, but lately I feel particularly bitten by Bandai with my DX purchases, so I think I might be willing to cross into the gray zone to restore at least one of them to true normal.
  21. That just looks freaking amazing. I loathe the non-white landing gear on the DX. This is how it should have been released. (also with larger freaking tailfins...even a replacement option like the angel bird, if they needed to resolve some anime magic)
