The March 2004 issue of ARMS magazine had a much nicer looking Kusanagi IMO. Graham

LOL.....Minkey-N Minkey, Minkey, where are you? Graham

I wouldn't like to run into her in a dark alley.....shudder! Graham

RDF Space Navy!!!!!!!!!?????????? Graham

Quite like the design of the basic armor. Sorta reminds me of the Hard Suits in Bubble Gum Crisis. That the figures come with what I presume are flying surf boards is enough to put me off though. Some of the accessories, like the bike look nice, others not so nice. Graham

Now that is very interesting. Unfortunately, even with encoding set to Japanese (Shift-JIS), my office PC won't display the Japanese characters, which is unusual. I guess it's that the Big West site is almost entirely in Macromedia Flash which is causing problems. Flash should be banned IMO as it makes my antique office PC crash half the time. Anyway, the only thing I can make out is pehaps the size 189mm x 127mm and a number 150. Damn, even Babel Fish refuses to translate it..........Grrrrrr Hang on a minute, that size is way too small to be a book! If you click on the 'Go To Information' link, it takes you to this page. Based on the other products on that site, I'm guessing that this is not a book, but a series of cards or digital prints, which cost ¥150 yen each and you print them out or download them from some sort of digital vending machine. So, I guess this is going to be another Japan only sorta deal Graham

I'm pretty sure that Hasegawa is guessing about a lot of the detail on the VF-0S. Actually, not just with the spinner, but also with some of the panel lines and number and positions of rivets. So far Kawamori has hardly issued any lineart. I mean, there's like 2-3 pics only of the VF-0S in fighter mode and they are not really very detailed. Likewise, the CG pics on the Big West and Bandai Visual sites don't really show a great amount of detail. I'm guessing that Hasegawa has just had to study anime screen grabs as best as they can to come up with their own interpretation of the VF-0S, which is probably not 100% accurate to how Kawamori's final detailed line art will be eventually.

Ok, so we've got the "Paris Act" custom, but what I really want to know is when do we get to see the "Paris Hilton" custom? Sorry, couldn't resist. Graham

Gamlin. Graham

Great job WJ. The VA-3M is one of my favorite Macross mecha. Graham

I'll get them added later today. Graham OK, they are now added to the MW Custom Toy Gallery. Graham

Can't wait to see this when it's finished. Graham

This is sorta off topic as this forum is for discussing Macross games. Graham

My most espensive single Macross toy purchase has been US$900 for a Bandai 1/55 VE-1. Graham

I'll get them added later today. Graham

Just added Jung's Minmay Guard custom as well. Graham

Excellent work. Graham

Outstanding work Jung. It's going up on the custom gallery right now. Graham

Just added Kurt's 1/48 VF-1A Enigma custom and also a couple of Solscud007's Joke Machine customs. I also moved some of the pics from page-1 of the 1/48 gallery to page-2, to make page-1 a bit shorter. Graham

Somebody else suggested that earlier in this thread and I've thought about it, but I'm not going to do it for the moment, as it would take a lot of time to change it that way and I just don't have that much free time. Maybe one day when I'm really bored and have absolutely nothing else to do I'll get round to it . Anyway, other pages on MW are organised the same way as the custom toy gallery, especially the magazine pages. Graham

The gallery is still a bit light on Yamato 1/72 and Bandai 1/65 customs. Send them in if you've got them please. Graham

Keep them coming Kurt. The more the merrier Graham

Ah....missed that one. I'll get Kurt's 1/48 VF-1A Enigma custom uploaded at the weekend. Graham

Where on the box does it say it? Picture? Graham

I put the gunpod w/hand from the VF-1S on the armored VF-1J. Looks better that way IMO. Graham
