  1. Got my shopping notice from NY today. Graham
  2. Gotta say the legs in Gerwalk mode look awful. I hope it can pull off a better pose than that. Graham
  3. So the gunpod can attach in fighter mode:-) Can we have some close up pics showing how it attaches please. Graham
  4. Looks stunning. Absolutely gorgeous. Graham
  5. IS Isamu's YF-29 really in the game? If so how to unlock it? Graham
  6. To be honest, I've found Bandai white plastic to yellow much faster than Yamato white plastic. I just pulled a v.1 Alto VF-25F out of a storage box in my closet where it's been stored away from sunlight. It was bright white when I packed it away several years ago, but now it's extremelly yellowed (I'll post pics later). By contrast my Yamato 1/48 VF-1A and VF-1S, stored in the same closet for even longer have only some very mild yellowing. I've had similar issues with other white Bandai toys I stored for several years, especially some of the older Victory Gundam toys from the mid-90's. Graham
  7. Question for the original poster, what is a GW model? Gundam Wing? Graham
  8. Preordered from NY. Graham
  9. So cool, I love that it has the names of all the Macross shows. I didn't notice that before. Graham
  10. That is so cool that it has all the different Macross show names on it. I didn't notice that on the smaller pics shown before. Graham
  11. Yes, most of the Bandai Frontier Valks have scratches on them. But to be honest, the scratches are so small and mostly only viewable under certain lighting conditions and at certain angles, that I don't notice them. Basically, unless I'm looking really closely and specifically looking for them, I'd never notice the scratches. So do these scratches spoil my enjoyment of the toy, no, not in the least. The self-losening hip and shoulder joints spoil me enjoyment far more. And it's nothing to do with "paying for cheap crap because it has the right branding". I buy these beacuse they are nicely designed, have great looking sculpts and I like the Frontier designs and Bandai is the only game in town as far as Frontier toys go. Graham
  12. Thanks Dio, that helps. I've also spent ages trying to match up the Japanese characters in the mission description with cave names, but without success. Graham
  13. M7 would be safe enough, but there is no dubbed version that I know of, only subbed versions. Graham
  14. They're should be a special place in hell for pranksters ;( Not happy and not funny. Making customs is great, but declaring it as official product is just evil, especially in the present uncertain situation Graham
  15. Sorry, still think the FAST packs are way too small and way too far back compared with Kawamori's line art And would have preferred all the back and red trim to be molded on colors. Easy pass. I'll stick with my Yammies / Arcadias. Graham
  16. Even with your guide and also the Japanese guide book, I've still no idea where in the on-screen mission description that it tells you the the name of the dungeon or base to go to for the subjection quests. So with the subjection quests, I basically end up flying from dungeon to dungeon until I hit the right one by chance, which takes ages. If someone could at least let me know where on the on-screen mission description I should be looking to see the location, that would be great. I've tried for ages to match up the location name with on screen Japanese text, but never can. And yes, I freely admit to being stupid! Graham
  17. For the Hunters Guild subjugation quests, it would be great if you could include the name of the dungeon or base where you need to go in the 'Clear Conditions' part of the table. Graham
  18. Excellent, count me in for one. Graham
  19. Now I can't speak for Kawamori or Bandai, but I doubt Kawamori actually personally worked on the design. What happened with Yamato is that he would come in for a meeting , which often had to be booked weeks or months in advance (he's a very busy guy) and he would offer his advice, comments, suggestions etc on a toy design and he had final say on whether anything should be changed. Yamato would then make said changes and another appointment would be booked with Kawamori to seek his approval. Wash, rinse and repeat as necessary. I imagine things are much the same with Bandai. Graham
  20. What's this talk about lack of musical variety in Macross? Does not compute!?!?!? Graham
  21. There was nothing wrong with the old drones IMO. Graham
  22. I've had no contact with my friend, the CEO (former CEO?) of Yamato for a few months now. No reply to emails or text messages Graham
  23. It really is a beautiful VF. Graham
  24. Damn auto correct on phone. Should have been "battroid", not "bathroom" Although my Valks do often accompany me to the bathroom (thought that was normal behaviour for a Macross fan Heck, I've had Valks sleep, on the pillow next to me before Graham
  25. I paid HK$1,050 for the VF-19S and HK$899 for the VF-1A movie Canon fodder. Graham
