Yes there is..and was. Most of the 80's DYRL great models were made in 1/144 scale by Yellow Submarine and some others in 1/72 scale and a few in 1/100 If you go to the main site and look into the models page; you'll find some examples of them which unfortunately are discontinued by now, but can be found every now and then on Evilbay at outrageous 21st century prices... http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/models...w_submarine.htm the only Nousjadeul-Ger from DYRL I know of that was ever made; is from yellow submarine in 1/144 scale...

I really dig that Queadlunn-RARE convertion there....

Ditto. I deserve the guillotine...!!!

Forgive me your excellencies.. mmm, I meant nice original casted copy...

I like them... I could not see the release date...so when? gashapon..?

That's a nice and crisp recast MK; congrats...

My take on this is that a model or toy in a larger scale would be so expensive that i wonder if any company take the chance to make a whole line of mecha in that size. Yamato has tried but we can see they seemed to struggle since, we saw them milking over and over again the same valk with a different color schemes. Why in the end would they opt for a smaller valks??. I wonder if probably the reason for this is cost effectiveness on materials... or May be they realized that Japanese have very limited living space and in the long run they would find out buyers would not fit them on their apartments making production very limited??. I can only imagine how expensive and big would a 1/48 armored VF-25 would be...?

Nope; that would be Kamjim's mighty "Poda Craug"

The problem with Zealot forums is that you can only see the pics if subscribed. Could you post some pictures directly to this forums?. Cool things come out from that site but most of us don't want to sign in just to see a few pics hre and there ...

Hey MK have you ever PMed Graham and suggested a bigger or closer linkage to SSM? They are a great website, a bit self centered, but full of good people and modelers. I think it could be beneficial for both sites if there was more interaction between them. We have many things in common after all...

This is like watching a Centerfold photshoot from start to end. Pure raunchy mecha-build Pron...It makes me feel all fuzzy inside... How exciting...

What I am amazed of is that Bandai has gone "" all the way"" to make this happen..Virtually the whole Macross 25 valk line including enemy the main mecha seems to be in production and this quick. Some other companies we had to wait months if not years to see half of this come to life...

I might be for one as well...as usual... I will have to see my finances by the time the product is ready for sale. So far I am good..

That is so kick @ss..!! Although it must be the lighting; freaking nice red...

I would also suggest you using the forums search engine for old treads about building models. MW Cheng have great step by step tutorials from which I learned a lot by paying attention to detail and then playing it back in my head on how would I approach that step. The rest is trial and error unfortunately... Some parts sub assemblies have to be painted before hand like the feet/thrusters inside of the lower legs. Most of the rest can be done after the model is built...

That looks sweet. Now you know what we all model builders of the famous hasegawas' have gone through. I do paint the nozzle bay areas carefully by hand. I would easily waste 1 hour taping the whole fast packs for 3 little holes to peak through.... Another way I have done it successfully is making a mask cut out of paper or thin transparent plastic and paint it like artists do on animation airbrushing cels, placing it over the part to be painted...

Now that truly sounds like modeling "Pron"....

Does anyone has a better picture and Stats of the Algenix from M3..? Is like the most obscure carrier in the Macross universe..I can't even find its length..?

That's easy to fix.. simple have every Macross fan in HK not buying any VF-25 until the prices come down... 1. They will reissue the molds to death since the sell was successful. But they'll be smart about it... 2. Bandai probably ( and I hope); eventually will find a way to get the product in the US. They are pushier and greedier than Hasegawa and AFAIK. Macross F has very little to do with the original Macross therefore copyright might not be so much of an issue...? 3. Great thing will come to those who wait. Eventually the prices will drop. and we'll find good market on Evilbuy

I thought that was Hobbyfan

To me is the realization that, because I have a modeling addiction, I could have used the money to buy another motorcycle, take a trip to a few countries to Europe or pay a few semesters at college instead... In the end I can't complaint because building them (whenever I have the time to) makes me happy and keeps me away from ever more harmful stuff like drugs, women and sex.....oh, and driving 70 mph to work because I took too long putting greeblies on my fine molds x-wing..

I think is funny how people dwell over and over again about the love triangle... WHO Cares !! Is true, Macross is a space opera based on love, emotions and music , whatever. But has anyone realized that M Frotier was underlying much more than that? About surviving the possible extinction of the human race. Seems that very few are omitting the bigger picture... The uncaring air Alto had for the 2 butterflies seems to have kept them in the edge enough to at least care for something. He might have been playing them both but his purpose might have been a different agenda which proved succesfull in the end... Who cares if the love birds turn they day into a "menage a' Trois..?" to some extent seems irrelevant. Give it up...let them be... The K-mory God already spoke...

That's the first time I hear it sung by a Japanese. The interpretation of the lyrics isn't bad at all. But as usual is pretty hard to translate the exact words to English. Nice find sharkm...

Yeah if we put every single variant on one chart it will take 3-6 pages and that would take us a day or two to search.. Actually that would be funny...

Not only that but the VF-9 cutlass which along the 5000 are the smallest valks I know of. Also missing the vf-25. And no we don't need a 1J or four VF-1's comparisons. They are exactly the same size than the normal VFs with a different cock-piece... I mean head... We should use just one VF of each and a F-14 OR f-18 as well for comparison ...
