Well....I suppose if you want to include kits or statues....there were those ARII releases from the...90's? And one Yellow Submarine Minmay in Chinese dress.... But all of them are a matter of opinion on how well they captured Mikimoto's original drawings
-
Agreed....just the leg mod alone makes a world of difference....looking forward to seeing the end result from all the mods....
-
They are definitely Mikimoto-inspired....but not his designs....I think they were drawn by a Satelight artist...but not 100% sure... I think a repost of some Macross Fever animation clips is in order!
-
Oh...OK...you mean the worst of the actual drawings used in the cel animation.... HG licenses out the original character and mecha designs every now and then to someone that wants to publish a collection of it...think there is a book out now..but you'd be better off just finding an old original Japanese Macross reference book.... Anyway, no one seems to ever "try" and capture the look of the original SDFM character art designs...at least no one so far....KC did a good job though on their Minmay, even though they seem to be using the Macross Fever designs instead of the original Mikimoto....I guess they are a hybrid of the old and new styles....sort of a merging of SDFM and MFrontier character styles....at least to my eyes...
-
Huh? Are you referring to the original Haruhiko Mikimoto Character lineart? I don't see how you can even compare those Toynami monstrocities to Mikimoto's original Macross character designs. As for the KitzConcept Minmay....they seem to be going with the Macross Fever look, which is good......no idea what they are using for reference on the Toynami figs....seriously, why even release them when those KC figs are also being teased.....
-
Only if they're Blaupunkt!
-
Instabuy...thanks for posting! Ditto on the Zentradi figs.... 1/12 VF-1 cockpit in our future?
-
I would have problems too if it happened all the time......nothing is perfect As for a shop adding extra days to your shipments on a consistent basis.....well, complain or take your business elsewhere.....the days of having limited buying options are thankfully gone
-
YJA would be your best option at this point....sometimes Mandarake gets WF items too....
-
This surprises you? Why would anyone pay for EMS if SAL was just as quick for less money?
-
If they wanted to use blue and gold on a VF again....I would have preferred Hasegawa's "5Grand Anniversary" scheme.....
-
Thanks.....I like the color they used...
-
How much was it?
-
Which version? The licensed Robotech or the initial bootleg?
-
Cat's Eye? Definitely would buy an HM-R version....

Déjà vu.... http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/40095-your-most-recent-macross-or-toy-purchase-general-thread/

No box automatically means about 30% less than the current value of the most "perfect" example of the collectible you want to sell, all else being equal, of course. So if you can live without the extra 30% return....then don't worry about it...otherwise.....start making some room!

He should have posted in the "Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread" and he would have been good to go! -

https://www.theverge.com/2018/2/6/16980500/star-wars-game-of-thrones-david-benioff-db-weiss Hope it goes back to the KOTOR days...... ....or maybe just naked chicks and lightsabers? -
Did you get this one? https://m.ebay.com/itm/ROBOTECH-MACROSS-SD-SUPER-DEFORMED-VF-1J-Officer-KITZ-CONCEPT-HARMONY-GOLD/323027195894?hash=item4b35ebd7f6:g:X0cAAOSw~XpZW77V

Anyone watch the latest movie in the Cloverfield franchise? Critics seem to be hating on it...but 61% "audience" score.... https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_cloverfield_paradox Paying for Netflix anyway, so I may as well watch it when I get the chance....saw some animated Godzilla thing on Netfix too...looked OK
