  1. The repositioning of the legs alone makes it look so much better...great work! Looking forward to the finished product...and finding out what your mod service fee will be....
  2. jvmacross

    Hi-Metal R

    Other than the dark color they opted to go with for the "head", which was never seen onscreen anyway....looks like another great release from Bandai's HMR Macross lineup...
  3. Millions(?) of Unwanted Shiiity "Collectibles" Lingering on store shelves Everywhere!TM Well, looks like after 30+ years.....someone finally managed to make the old school Macross keshi toys look more line-art accurate!
  4. The original Hi-Comical Model concept "egg valkyrie" was designed by Kawamori himself...thus the instant street cred......I believe there is an article about it in the DYRL Preview book from back in the day....here are the lineart pics from the article... The original SD Valkyrie.......accept no imitations!
  5. I think I have enough quirky Macross stuff....accept no imitations! http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/gallery/album/618-jvmacross-ohsato-macross-collection/ Old School Macross Quirkiness = COOL Modern Macross Quirkiness based off nostalgia = LAME
  6. BBTS too.... http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/67569
  7. I don't understand that whole "get rid off the past...kill it if you have to" mantra.......it ain't happening........Luke himself does a 360 and says...nope...forget that.....the Jedi will not die with me (Rey)....and 2) The whole dang process (jedi vs Sith) seems poised to get rebooted all over again as depicted with that slave kid.....essentially we will once again get a whole new generation of Jedi and at somepoint Sith or Dark Jedis.....it never ends.......
  8. I'd buy painted recasts of them.....
  9. He could bring time travel into the Star Wars universe and "make things right...again"......he could make it all into a Star Trek-like alt reality.....make the entire Star Wars Saga a dream.....Go full-on LOST....move on to ripping-off the prequel trilogy?
  10. Hoping you can send me some leads!
  11. LOL. Not surprised....afterall...Snoke is the posterboy for "tossed away" characters. Don't be older than maybe 35 in a Star Wars movie.....you'll most likely be dead before the credits roll....or at least by the next installment!
  12. Wouldn't it make more sense at this point to just wait and see how the 1/72 line turns out? Surely the possibility of a 1/72 Ben VF-1A is somewhat expected....based on how many SD versions have been released by Kidlogic/concept or whatever they are called.....
  13. Awesome! I still have yet to open one of my sets. I also bought some stationery and pins from the event that I will take some pics of when I get a chance.
  14. So I wonder what excuse will be revealed as to why Yoda, Obi-Wan, or Qui-Gon would not have summoned a bolt of lightning into Darth Sidious during his reign? Also, kind of fuzzy in my memory, but did Yoda actually physically smack Luke during their scene in TLJ?
  15. I thought it was mentioned in the movie that the base was something from the early Rebel alliance days? Which may have been built as such before they even knew about the Death Star and its type of weapons....which would make giant doors pointless....thus the move to just shields during the post Death Star period of the conflict? I'm sure it will all be explained in some book or comic!
  16. 1. Empire Strikes Back 2. A New Hope 3. Return of the Jedi 4. Revenge of the Sith 5. Attack of the Clones 6. The Last Jedi 7. The Phantom Menace 8. The Force Awakens Rewatched The Last Jedi......once you remove the many flaws and the "killing off" of Luke (let's face it, he'll be back and hopefully will be allowed to have his character redeemed), the wasted scenes and characters, the ridiculous 2+ hour chase, the dead-ends from TFA, etc.....it is still better than TFA.....TLJ, as bad as it is, still moved the story forward more so than TFA's 30 minutes or so did (whether in the right or wrong direction is currently up for debate)....now that TLJ is out, it reveals what a complete waste of time TFA was.....the director of TLJ apparently felt the same way about it....to very mixed results.....my only concern now is that JJ is back at the director's chair.....I'll will say this much about JJ, he does know how to replicate the feel of Star Wars....

    Hi-Metal R

    One size does not fit all.....
  18. At this point I may as well look up those pics as I still haven't had the time to open up one of my sets.....BTW...on its way...apologies for the delay!
  19. I think 2017 was the first year in a while that I did not add any new Macross cels to my collection......Hoping something comes up 2018...
