How did you replace the wing hinge on the Arcadia YF-19? I'm asking as a few days ago the metal high speed wing hinge on the left wing of my Arcadia YF-19 from 2014 snapped at the hinge point. 😭 This is one of the reasons why I just decided to pick up the PF version, so I could have a non-broken Arcadia YF-19. Plus the PF version looks better IMO. But I'd still like to get my older one repaired if possible. -
Yeah, I prefer the look of the Arcadia too. While the DX is a good toy, there's some design choices I don't like.
-
The elbow of my last Yamato Fire Valk finally broke about 6 months ago 😭. So I decided it was time to get the Arcadia version, plus I really wanted the little Fire Bomber Figures that come with the Arcadia version.
-
Today's score. I'm a bit late to the game with Arcadia toys. First time to get these two. 😅

New Macross Animation Announced, to be animated by Sunrise
Graham replied to seti88's topic in Movies and TV Series
I'm just wondering if the streaming deal with Disney+ has delayed or even scuppered the planned new Macross series that was to be produced by Sunrise? I mean it's been over a year since the news about the Sunrise produced series broke, but we haven't heard anything since. Possibly Disney have their own plans for a new Macross series.....hmmm? I personally hope not, given in my personal opinion Disney is a franchise killer and most (but not all) of the Disney releases for Marvel/Star Wars/Doctor Who/Indiana Jones have been pretty bad (again just my personal opinion). It's now 8 years since Delta TV series was released and 16 years since Frontier TV series was released. So I hope we get a new TV series soon, just not if Disney has any creative control. None of us including Kawamori are getting any younger! 😅 -
I must admit, I haven't been following this closely. But after seeing the recent pics, I need to ask is the finished version still available to purchase?
-
I would love a full Armored VF-11C. It's such a shame that nobody has ever made one in toy form. It's my favorite out of all the armored VFs.
-
Hoping we get some news from Bandai soon about a DX VF-22S from Macross 7. Personally hoping for the blue Max Jenius type, but I'd also be happy with Gamlin's black version or Milia's red one.
-
Re-watching Macross 7 on D+, so just dug my old Yamato VF-17DS, VF-19F, VF-11C and VF-22S Max type out of storage. Haven't handled them in years. I really wish Arcadia would would re-release the the VF-17D/S, but in a gloss finish, with Tampo printed markings and make the plastic colors more closely follow that of the old Bandai 1/65 toys, i.e. more of a glossy dark blueish-black. I still love the old Bandai VF-17D/S, And I'm still bummed that we never got a red Milia VF-17S from either Bandai or Yamato.
-
Yay, Dynamite 7 now added.
-
I'm really looking forward to these HG VF-22S kits. I've always been more of a fan of the VF-22S than the YF-21. Especially Max's VF-22S.
-
Really hoping we get a DX Tornado pack re-release soon.
-
Looks great.
-
I still believe that the VF-11 and VF-17 molds/tooling were lost or somehow went missing in the transition from Yamato to Arcadia. I did hear that as an unsubstantiated rumour back in the day from one of my former contacts. No idea if it is true or not. But it could explain why the Yamato VF-11B/C and VF-17D/S have never been re-issued by Arcadia, Or maybe Arcadia still have the tooling, but don't have the licensing rights to produce them and/or don't think it would be profitable to re-issue them?

Macross Plus Ultimate Edition Blu-ray Release Thread
Graham replied to sh9000's topic in Movies and TV Series
Yeah, I mean it's great that our mobile phones give us access to pretty much every song/movie/TV series that's ever been recorded. But more and more recently I find myself yearning for the simpler times of the 70s and 80s and even the 90s (at least up to the mid 90s), before the internet and mobile devices and social media. Guess it's just another sign of getting old. -
Macross Plus Ultimate Edition Blu-ray Release Thread
Graham replied to sh9000's topic in Movies and TV Series
I'm actually at the stage where I miss cassettes. 😅 -
Yeah, I'm really not into Kickstarters also. If this eventually get's a release I may buy it. But as it's now on D+ I've less desire to pay to get the Blu Ray disk. I mean yeah, who knows how long Macross will be on D+. But anyway, I still have my old MII DVDs as a back up,
-
I read his scenes were filmed before his death, as this movie has been in production for a long time. But I may be wrong.
-
I think Ballerina is set before the events of JW4.
-
Yay, here in Hong Kong on Disney+ we just got FB 2012 also! 🥰 All with English subs. 😍

Really looking forward to Ballerina after seeing the trailer. I love the John Wick franchise. I watch JW4 in the cinema 4 times.😅
-
Not quite up to where Emerald Force show up, yet. 😅 Given that we already have the HMR Fire Valkyrie, I think it's a given that Bandai will give us at least a VF-19S as a P-Bandai release. But yeah, the VF-19F/S are high up on my list of favourite VF designs, especially the VF-19F. Love that blue with white trim scheme.
-
Binge re-watching Macross 7 On Disney+ since yesterday has made me want HMR VF-17D/S, VF-11C Super and Fz-109 toys even more.
-
I have a theory that at the request of Big West, Disney Plus is punishing the US by delaying the release of the various Macross animes in the US on D+. 😅 After all, the US is country that spawned Harmony Gold, so has created the most trouble for the Macross franchise

The hobby shop near my office has had stock of this since last week. But as much as I like the VF-31J Super, I've no plans to buy, the reissue as I still have 2 of the original VF-31J release and super parts. Now, If Bandai had released an Arad or Chuck VF-31AX that would be another story, I'd be all over those. Or even Arad & Chuck Super Parts for the original VF-31 releases.
