  1. I didn't see an SDF-1. Only the same, goofy, Quarter-like ship.
  2. Kawamori specifically said the 31 would follow along traditional lines and that the Draken would be all new.
  3. Well, in the trailer that 31 looks like quite a hot rod.
  4. I guess we see the two feet pressed together at the back of the Draken there. I imagine the legs fold up underneath in a fashion similar to the VF-17/171.
  5. I guess that guy who came up with the forward swept wing drawing was pretty much on the mark. Too bad, really, I've have preferred a different wing configuration.
  6. I'm getting two impressions from the few pics here. 1) this will be VERY popular with the teen girls 2) I have ZERO interest in something that is VERY popular with teen girls.
  7. Whoever was hoping for a dark, military story just got super-trolled. So Idol group versus Boy Band?
  8. Wow, that's how you ruin a great design.
  9. Huh, based on that promo image the wings didn't look canted down like they are in this photo.
  10. While we're sharing stories about children named after Star Wars characters I work with a woman who's daughters name is Leia. Luckily she likes all of the movies... okay, to be honest, I'm not sure Mindi cares if her daughter likes any of it or not. Leia's been forced to stomach it all.
  11. I never had much of a problem with Quantum, but it's interesting that Spectre seems to be in the same situation Quantum was. The movie that ties up the loose ends, or follows up on, the previous, excellent, film. Probably the thing that saved it was the fact Sam Mendes was the constant between the last two.
  12. Noriyoshi Ohrai passed today. I mean, he did do the illustration of the SDF-1 in the MacrossWorld banner up there. And it's one of my favorites of the SDF-1 as well. http://kotaku.com/today-we-lost-a-great-japanese-illustrator-1738903632?utm_campaign=Socialflow_Kotaku_Facebook&utm_source=Kotaku_Facebook&utm_medium=Socialflow
  13. Can someone screen shot any of the interesting designs for those of us who can't watch?
  14. I'm still tossing it over in my head if I want to get off my lazy, amateur butt and attempt a Max 1J scheme.
  15. Should the super parts be included in the list? Or was that too much to deal with?
  16. I went for a third at HLJ.
  17. Given that making the shoulder mechanism for the 2SS work is super tricky, I think both the VF-4 and VF-19Advance are proof Arcadia or Bandai could make it work. Just look at the basic things they aren't getting right on thos toy. Giant, ugly hinges sticking out everywhere. Something Yamato figured out how to fix on the VF-4 and further implemented on the VF-0 releases. They were mever going to get the complex parts of the 2SS correct if they were foing to so easily mess up the easy parts.
  18. Looks good but the wings are open a bit wide.

    Hi-Metal R

    Yeah, me too...
  20. I have no idea what the color issue with the S is. It looks spot on to me. It seems the least offensive of the color choices.
