    So I guess KitzConcept's license to produce more awesome 1/12 figures from the "Macross Saga" line is no longer in danger? Robotech or not, they are making stuff Bandai and other Japanese licensees just do not seem to be interested in releasing. I don't care if it is a Robotech or Macross license....whoever makes stuff I actually want to buy gets a portion of my money.

    Great pickups! Looks like your lot was more bountiful than the one with the Hikaru DYRL images. Congrats!

    You need to go work for Bandai so you can get paid for your ideas!!

    I don't think the issue is simply because a black actress is being hired to play the part normally associated as a white character. At least, it shouldn't be... The issue is that such casting is just BS used to fool minorities into thinking a company, like Disney, is actually listening and hiring more of them.....it would be much more beneficial for Disney (and others) to increase the hiring amounts of qualified "backline" staff that happen to be minority.....instead of just ONE minority actress "taking" the role, as you stated, that would have gone to a white actress....this will have a minimal effect on the continued economic growth and prosperity of minorites in this country.....seriously, how many minority actors/actresses are affected by lack of employment opportunities vs the general minority working population?.....Disney can keep filling in the handful of "live action" roles with the race/ethnicity that they were originally portrayed as in the origianl works and/or animated movies......they should instead make a real effort to hire more qualified minorities to staff their payrolls in a way that represents the racial make-up of the country they are generating multi-billion dollars of revenue in.... Getting all bent out of shape over a single casting is not focusing on the real issue....it is just the simplest one to focus on of a far more complicated issue...and this is why Disney has casted a black girl as Ariel.....it's good PR for today's race politics and PC paranoia.....but it is of very little actual benefit to the minorities they would like for everyone to believe they are helping with these silly casting choices

    Let's play Macross Bingo! If you are only missing a TV Q-Rau, TV N-Ger, TV GBP, or Phalanx on your game board and one of them gets announced as the next release...you win!

    I have the poster, but this image is not mine, grabbed it off an auction... If it is indeed an authentic cel, then it was a missed opportunity when no one was bidding on it at 30K....win some, lose some...

    guess we'll never know

    I am just not sure if it is a hanken or some other type of promo, assuming it is legit.....the fact that it had no marking apparently scared off other collectors when initialy listed..... The image can be found in the bottom poster....still think it is not a cel used in actual production

    Lots of nice Misa dougas/gengas on YJA from the Mars episode.....eyeing one of them

    https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/s668638248 Anyone else thought this was a questionable cel? It didn't sell for 30K JPY then was relisted for no reserve. The cel has no sequence markings.

    No social media for me....guess I'll just have to wait...I PO'd one from Flying Mule...hopefully they get them soon too

    That the same one being sold by BBTS for 129.99? If so, I guess I have one on PO. Although BBTS seems to be stating 4th Qtr 2019 for release? Hoping they just haven't updated their info on it. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/94995

    Can't wait for the up and coming Chinese starlett Disney will select to play Merida...just to appease the Chinese boxoffice! As for The Little Mermaid......hoping they don't go all out Hip-hop/Rap...but something tells me they will

    Mad Max was originally released in Australia in 1979...but it was released in the US in 1980...so that counts! With that said....the battle is over!
