I'll take the first two. Don't want the Vajra though. I don't even necessarily want transformable one's. I'll take an Uruga or Northampton as well. Though a Battle 7 would be cool I'm honestly not fond of the Attack mode look. The carrier mode looks really good though.

Daryl does flat out say he didn't need a drinking game to get laid. He knew what she was going for and shut her down.

You have to wonder why they didn't try to come up with some sort of locking mechanism for the wings this time. It's not like they didn't know about the additional weight from all of these various parts the second time around for this line.

Oh, that's right, Ozma is a general release this time...

Robotech x Voltron crossover... what the...I don't even...
Mommar replied to Tochiro's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
For all of the half-assed attempts at everything HG has ever done the artwork and coloring are actually pretty impressive in those few panels. -
I was hoping they'd have the Ozma on display at the Akiba showroom as well...
-
Thanks for the pics! I think Michael's looks superior in Battroid mode. Talk about back heavy though....

The hinges on all of the flaps on the VF-4 have been holding up quite well if that's any indication.

2 new Variable Fighter Master File books: VF-22 and VF-1 Squadrons
Mommar replied to cool8or's topic in Collectors
I just got my shipping notice for SDF-1. Supposedly the 22 book was listed for March as well. I find that hard to believe. Seems like they would space them out a bit more than that. -
You've not compared the pictures have you? The 0D and 30 look nothing alike. The 24 and 30 are extremely similar even if the transformation mechanisms have been modified. Enough people on here alone have confused the 30 for being a part of Frontier or for being another extension of the 25, because they look that similar. Nobody is confusing the 0D for any of these other fighters. For those of you hoping for another Quarter, I hope you get your wish. We need more capitol ships. For myself, however, I cannot abide that "cruiser" mode.

Here's something of line art for the YF-24. A few cosmetic changes and it becomes the YF-30 really. http://www.google.com/imgres?imgrefurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.macross2.net%2Fm3%2Fmacrossf%2Fyf-24.htm&tbnid=TJNjOn7uV7oH_M:&docid=1lN73CgBYOjkZM&h=689&w=1000

I would love to see an RVF-171 still but Bandai already seems happy doing various Mac30 repaints for the 29, and supposedly the 30 is still on it's way as well. Who wants to take bets we'll be seeing a Leon paint scheme sometime soon as well? As regards the YF-24, have you compared the top-down silhouettes of the 24 with the 30?
-
As much as I'd like some more VF-4 variants the equivalency still isn't the same, really.
-
Minus the ankles, wouldn't all of those things have to be new anyway? I don't really see why they wouldn't revise everything anyway, otherwise you would have parts that seemed really antiquated engineering-wise along side parts that seem modern. It would be like the VF-27 re-release only much older and worse.
-
I'm assuming at this point the mold has pretty much paid for itself and Bandai is taking chances with other 25 schemes because it's all profit for sales now.
-
Man, I'm about out of room really. My collection has spread to another desk now. I need to quit buying these things and get a proper display cabinet instead.
-
I noticed that update this morning. I was curious how the wings would fit with the legs, stabilizers, etc... Looked a bit off for the first testing.
-
Well... that episode wasn't necessary at all.
-
I think that's sound reasoning. If not Hikaru, some other scheme that might be different/popular. Those of us who already have two or three VF-4's aren't likely to splurge on another in the same color scheme we already have but we might just be dumb enough to buy another if it's of a different scheme.
-
It would be IMPOSSIBLE to get a transformable Maxl to look anything like that in Battroid.

Talking with a friend about desperately needing some sort of Beach vacation.

The Chest armor should be fine. As a matter of fact I plan to mix/match the Armor/Tornado parts on my 25G.

When I first transformed my 25S I admit to having problems with getting head plate to move as well. It was the one place where the manual didn't make sense to me. I went very slow and gentle. I still couldn't figure it out. I watched either a tutorial by Veef or Jenius (can't remember who) and they showed the little lever in the front that has to be pushed for the plate to slide backward enough to pop the head out. At that point I finally got it, but until then I didn't muscle anything. So it is a little hard to do just by the picture, not reading Japanese it's possible the instruction manual is entirely clear about what is going on there.
