  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. I read that the Tanker 6" Black Series will be a Toys R Us exclusive.
  5. Just scored this today during my lunch break
  6. Just saw this Macross related number plate, although the owner probably has no idea.....ha
  7. Best and truest post of the day! Same, I read all the spoilers before watching an episode, that way I can know exactly how disappointed I'm gonna be when I finally muster up the courage to actually watch it. Still no mood or desire to actually watch episode 25 yet. And if this train wreck of a series actually gets a movie or second season green lit, I'll be most surprised.
  8. I'm sure everything will be resolved in the final episode though 23 minutes of talking heads, with a couple of songs thrown in and if we are very lucky, perhaps 1 minute of glowing light trail, fighter mode only scissors dogfight! Then it will be back to the Elysion's bridge for tea and jellyfish snacks Cynical, moi?
  9. I've been a Macross fan since 1982. In the last 3+ decades I've steadfastly loved and supported the franchise, even and especially the red-haired step child's of the franchise; Macross II and Macross 7. But honestly speaking, for the first time ever since I fell in love with Macross, I feel no compelling or urgent desire to watch this latest episode of Macross Delta Sure, I'll watch it eventually, but it's not like in the past where I'll use any and all methods to watch a new episode as soon as I can.
  10. Honestly, if any MacrossWorlder's get to attend a Q&A session with Kawamori, don't go easy on him. In fact rip him a new one! How could he allow Delta to spiral so far out of control after episode 13, into the talking-head, no mecha action crapfest it's become in the second half of the season? Seriously, he may be the creator and all that, but with the mess that Delta has become post episode 13, he's lost all good will and credibility that he'd previously built up. As others have speculated, I'm guessing he was attracted by the quick and easy dollars from Mainland China for his next project and left Delta in the hands of people who have no clue.
  11. There's no such thing as "bullet proof", only bullet resistant. What's the ballistic rating of Walkure's suits? What's it spec'd against.... pistol ammo, rifle ammo, AP rounds etc? Too many possible various without knowing details.
  12. Built Mirage's VF-31C and the VF-31A Kairos today.
  13. Graham

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Obviously whoever transformed it didn't rotate the nose to the correct position.
  14. Tech specs of VF-31A Kairos and VF-31C Siegfried from the TomyTec 1/144 scale kits. Is that a micro-missile capacity of 36 I see? I wonder if these specs give additional detail beyond the Bandai 1/72 kit pamphlet?
  15. I really like the boxes on these.
  16. My swag haul. Will start building today. Gonna start with Mirage first, as a test build as that's the one I care least about if I mess up anything.
  17. The holosuits may only have a set number of pre-programmed outfits loaded into the memory. Xaos/Walkure doesn't seem bright enough to come up with the idea of using the holosuits as Predator style active camoflage.
  18. I'm guessing Mari's tweet is probably related to voice acting work for the PS Vita Macross Scramble game and not related to the Delta TV series.
  19. Yeah, I also wondered about that. Far more efficient to search for people using thermal imaging (IR) technology, rather than search lights . Living bodies against a snowy background are gonna stand out like a sore thumb!
  20. If I remember correctly, they warned us that the tone would change drastically after episode 1 or 2, which it didn't really until after Messer's death. I also seem to recall the said we'd see some really cool choreography for the atmospheric dogfights, but that really didn't happen much, unless you count glowing light trails scissoring in the distance as "really cool".
