Macross Δ BD/DVD Thread (now with delicious English subs).
Graham replied to UN Spacy's topic in Movies and TV Series
Yeah, Frontier was such an awesome show in my opinion, exactly how a Macross TV series should be. I just recently re-watched it to help get over my disappointment about how badly the second half of Delta turned out. The only single negative thing I have to say about Frontier was that the character animation quality was a bit dodgy in a few episodes where they farmed out the animation to obviously tier 3 SEA animation studios. I have the Bandai Frontier DVDs, but if they came with English subs on Blu-ray, I'd definitely re-buy the whole series. Delta, I bought the first disk, with the initial intention to by the rest, but honestly, I just can't justify buying the whole series given how much it jumped the shark after episode 13. I may eventually buy up to episode 13, but it's no longer such a priority. -
I'm so stoked for these. Gotta catch em all! I must say having the TomyTech has really made me like Mirage's color scheme. Before I was kinda meh about it, but I've really grown to like it, so looking forward to Mirage's DX as well.

Is that a Saint Seiya - Gundam Unicorn mash up, or what?

Macross Δ BD/DVD Thread (now with delicious English subs).

Just watch episodes 1-13 and 26. There is almost no mecha featured in episodes 14-25. -
Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
Graham replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Sheesh, that looks like something out of a Power Rangers show!! -
I think it will really depend on the type and grade of plastic used in the toy. I've had several Bandai/Banpresto/Yamato toys yellow over the years despite being kept in their boxes or stored in drawers and not being exposed to any type of light source.
-
I don't think we need so many threads at this stage. Maybe later if we get more releases. Honestly, I think two threads is ok at the moment. If Bandai decide to release more HMR from different Macross series later then we can review and decide then.
-
Thinking to rename this thread "Hi-Metal R SDFM/DYRL" and create a separate thread titled "Hi-Metal R other Macross Series". Otherwise news and photos about the VF-2SS and any other Macross series releases (cross fingers we get some) just gets lost in the noise. What do you guys think???? Graham
-
If they start giving these away, then I may consider getting a second one. As much as I love the VF-2SS design, the frustration factor with these is too high and the fun factor too low. Gonna sit back and chill and wait for the Bandai HM-R version instead.
-
Damn, was planning at one of each only, but with the Super packs coming, thinking do I want/need a second one to display with the packs.
-
Looking forward to the cannon fodder version of the Sv-262 much more, I really don't like the Anubis dog style head of Keith's version and the markings are too bling bling for my taste. I really prefer the head on the standard version as it has much more of an Fz-109 / Sv-51 vibe to it.

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
Graham replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Big fan of the Ex-S Gundam. It's one of the few MS designs that I actually like. However, I'm on the fence about getting this toy. I'm disappointed that for the price it can neither be transformed to G-Cruiser mode, nor can it be converted into an S-Gundam, which would have required relatively few additional parts. -
Wait..........there were Valks in the show?????

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets
Graham replied to areaseven's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Fifth Element was 20 years ago???!!!! Frak, I'm getting old -
That is so awesome. Fantastic work.
-
So happy that I managed to finally order one. Now I can take my overseas Christmas holiday without stressing over not being able to get one.
-
I'm guessing Bandai decided to increase their production quantity due to demands from retailers. Or maybe so many people cancelled their pre-orders, due to the TV series sucking so bad and featuring almost no mecha action in the second half.
-
Yay, managed to snag one, thanks to FigInStock notification. Wish I'd signed up to their service months ago.
-
Yeah, scored one. Got and actually saw the alert from FigInStock and wasn't stuck in a "no phone" work meeting. Now just need the VF-31J, which is the one I actually want more.
-
Checking in for any more VF-2SS news...........nothing.......checking out
-
Yeah, I've either been working and stuck in meetings or travelling overseas with no internet access for both preorders
-
I have to say I found getting the Frontier renewals super easy by comparison to the Delta DXs. Even if I missed or couldn't get the initial pre-order for the Frontier renewals, Nippon-Yasan always used to come through with additional pre-order stock within a few days, although at a slightly higher price (which I never minded paying, I considered it the price to avoid frustration, frustration tax if you will.....haha). I miss those days. Anyway, finally got round to registering on this FigInStock thing just now, hope it helps me nab the Delta DXs.
-
Easy!!!!!! Are you joking??? It's been impossible so far. These have to be the hardest Valks ever to pre-order in the history of Macross toys. Getting very frustrated about not being able to snag one of each.
-
Damn, missed it
-
Great kits, but I just cancelled my VF-31S Fighter & Battroid and Keith Drakken fighter order, as the show was so disappointing in the second half, that I kinda lost interest in the mecha.
