Here's a larger scan of that page. Graham
-
Well, it's still another 2 hours till I get home, but I won't be doing the scans immediately. My wife would be pretty pissed with me, if as soon as I got home I went on the computer straight away I'll be scanning and uploading after dinner and during the commercial breaks for Smallville and CSI which are both on tonight in HK.

The just released July 2004 issue of Dengeki Hobby magazine has a great Macross section for Macross model fans this month. Included are: - Battroid mode conversion of the Hasegawa VF-0S model kit. Battroid mode conversion of the Hasegawa SV-51 in D.D. Ivanov colors. This has to be seen to be believed. Scratch built 1/72 scale reactive armor for the VF-0S. I'll try to get scans up tonight.

The pics of the VF-0S are from the new July 2004 issue of Dengeki Hobby magazine. I just picked this up a few minutes ago, so I'll get a larger scan up tonight. Graham

Thought PB was an OK movie, not great, but I've no regrets about renting it on DVD. Probably would have been a bit disappointed if I'd have paid money to see it at the theatre tho. As for Riddick, I'll do the same and rent it on DVD when it becomes available, unles it gets super fantastic reviews then I'll go see it at the theatre. However, with little Roy about to eject from his cockpit, I think my movie going days are gonna be on hold for quite a while. Graham

We've known it is not perfect transformation for months already. This is not new news. Graham

I thought the release date was May 28th? Graham

Looks like a great custom, but we really need some pictures that are not so blurry. I'd love to include this in the MW Custom Toy gallery. Graham

Yes, yes... we know you're having a baby, but what about the toy??? LOL.....have I inadvertently coined a new phrase to replace "bun in the oven" Yes, it's true, my wife does have 'a little Roy in the cockpit', and he is due to eject in slightly under 2 weeks. Graham

AFAIK, they are fixed pose, not articulated. Graham

I also like this pic of the VF-0S. Graham
-
The IT Media site finally has some interesting pics from the Shizuoka Hobby Show, see here. They have the first pic I've seen of the VF-0S removable nose and landing gear. I can't tell for certain, but it looks like there might be a little Roy in the cockpit. Graham

M3 has an excellent opening movie and intro song and that's the best thing I have to say about it. This game was highly anticipated when it came out back in 2001, as early screenshots in the Japanese gaming magazines looked very promising. However, the actual game quickly proved to be disappointing due to weak gameplay and slugishly turning battroid and gerwak modes. I have a review of the game here. However, I'm no longer as positive about the game as I was when I wrote that review. Graham

Do I smell a poll coming on? I'm definitely buying 2 or maybe 3 of the VB-6. Graham

Gotta say, I'm not really a fan of the K&M series #1 figures, except for the Regult figure. I thought the paint job was pretty bad on the Hikaru VF-1J, too much grey paint, an unrealistic, overly stylised sculpt with the gunpod way out of proportion, plus the right elbow joint of mine snapped almost immediately. I thought the proportions of the transforming figures were a joke in battroid mode, although they did look pretty nice in Gerwalk mode. Lots of problems with parts falling off though, especially the arms. I do like the GBP and Tomahawk from set # 2. Graham

The Starship Troopers OVA anime was released in 1988. The Powered Suit designs were by Studio Nue. The Kaiyodo Powered Suit toy which is very similar, but not identical to the OVA design was also designed by Studio Nue apparently all the way back in 1979. Graham

Nobody knows for sure if a larger version of the VF-0 is coming. Some members have theorised that a similar situation may exist to the VF-1, where we got the smaller 1/60 non-perfect transformation version first and then the larger 1/48 perfect transformation version later. So, it's possible that a larger perfect transformation version may be in the works, but nobody (myself included) knows for sure. Graham
-
I'm not sure, but based on recent photos in either the May or June issue of Hobby Japan, I think those Starship Troopers Powered Suits are resin garage kits. Personally, I love the small Kaiyodo Powered Suit Toys. Great articulation for the small size. It's just a pity that they never made the OVA version. Graham

SW Episode III: Birth of the Empire
Graham replied to GreatMoose's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
If this movie features Xtreme lava surfing, I am not, REPEAT I am NOTgoing to see it . . . . . Doh!.....OK, yes I'll probably still go to see it, but I'll hate it. Stupid lava surf boards I just had this mental image of Obi Wan and Anakin surfing lava with the theme to 'Hawai Five O' playing, and Keanu Reeves standing in the background saying "Dude" Graham -
Yes, Yamato are making a 1/100 scale VF-0S toy. It should be released sometime in June or July (no firm release date has been announced yet). The retail price will be somewhere around ¥4,000. The toy will be ABS and PVC, no die-cast metal. It will also require parts-swapping in order to transform as it comes with different noses for Fighter and Battroid modes. This toy has been discussed in-depth on these forums in several topics and if you do a search on the toy forums you can find more info. Graham

Great job Kurt, I'll get this in the gallery at the weekend. Graham
-
Where can one find this movie? It's on the 20th Anniversery DVD. And of course it's on the Playstation VF-X2 game. Graham
-
I'll have to watch the opening movie of VF-X2 again, but IIRC the VB-6 does not land in shutttle mode, instead it transforms to Gerwalk mode to land and then steps on and squashes an enemy tank Graham

Read my post directly above yours. I mention the scale. Graham
