  2. very nice....I can't even recall when some of the Macross creators ever came around my neck of the woods....would be nice to have some stuff signed....
  3. Nice...I don't generally collect autographs but I do happen to have the world's largest shikishi with an original Tenjin illustration and autograph....
  4. Yes....

    Bandai may go for the double-dip with this one! They'll include the "still wrong" chest-striped TV VF-1J "abomination" with the 100% TV GBP combo set with yellow-tipped missiles...which will also have similar low production numbers as they will be sticking into the combo set the other half of the VF-1J's they withheld from PO's today! It will go down as the holy grail of HMRs!

    Oh it's new alright!
  8. Actually I took the Doyusha's out of the vault to pose them with the Aviation Fighters 1/144 Admiral Kuznetsov lighted Diorama Deck I recently picked up.....I have about 4 other carrier deck/hangar displays for my 1/60 valks that I have posted before....I like the 1/144 stuff, but it does not compare to the 1/60 stuff....although if anyone has this deck and plans to dress it up with the Tomytec gimmix valks and accessories...it should make for a nice mini display....

    The closest in scale would be the WHAM SDF-1 in 1/5000....it comes in "movie color" and "a blue chrome-like" paint scheme....you can still find it on auction sites like eBay and Yahoo japan Auctions....

    Bandai should immediately stop allowing Tenjin to deface the covers of these otherwise 100% perfect toys! (quick! make some room behind that dumpster for me! )
  15. Cool...looking forward to your finished work! BTW...it may have been planned for actual release by Bandai back in the day....sadly, it never happened...

    Sure...next you'll be telling us these are "Super Real Models".... Wouldn't it be funny if Bandai just rolled with Tenjin's illustration? It's Tenjin's fault!!!

    It would be an awesome gesture to the fans...heck, toss them in with the upcoming TV VF-1J and call it a day! If I recall correctly, a similar situation happened when Yamato released their Macross Chronicle exclusive 1/48 VF-1A Max TV type....they forgot to include the TV style clown hands.....to "correct" the omission, they included an extra set of TV clown hands with their Macross Chronicle exclusive 1/48 VF-1A Kakizaki TV type....of course, to get the correct hands you'd have to buy the Kakizaki...but still, they actually did something to correct the issue....

    That's just it...it was a mistake....not even sure Bandai has ever owed up to it....I'm guessing Japanese fans aren't that critical so they probably won't....the fact that Bandai is releasing a VF-1A with both TV and DYRL parts means they are totally aware of the differences between both versions.....the same can now be said with their upcoming TV VF-1J..... So, the current HMR GBP is 100% a DYRL release that went into production with the wrong color missile tips.....we forgive you Bandai! Keep those HMR's coming!!!

    LOL....if you're still convinced the recent HMR GBP was not a DYRL version release, then I guess the horse in that gif must be you.....go ahead and drink the water, Mr. Ed....it's safe!
