After the VF-4G.....can anyone say a Max and Milia VF-1J, Super Ostrich, or VF-1D will not be reissued? At this point it is just a waiting game.
-
I'd buy these even if I'd never get a chance to fly them....but I'd find the time.... These guys should find a way to sell these...instabuy!
-
Where's the preorder?
-
I don't want a reboot or soft reboot....I want an all new story that progresses the overall story that starts from Episode 1, The Phantom Menace, warts and all.... Screw reboots...that crap is for lesser franchises.... -
ET needs to release pics of the "completed" SAP CAD drawings....but maybe they are waiting for sometime closer to release date....still, I think it is a bone-headed move to have not just released this as a VF-2SS w/SAP bundle first......I'm still hoping that a low production number will mean sell-out for the VF-2SS Silvie, which will bring on the Nexx VF-2SS w/SAP......just a fool's hope....but still a hope....

Not sure if someone may have posted on one of the earlier pages of this thread...but the sequence is shown on a few sources, such as the Macross II Entertainment Bible..... The above images were taken from this site....whose owner I would think must be in hog heaven at the prospect of a 1/60 VF-2SS....but then again.... http://valkyrie2.cloud-line.com/valkyrie/

...Or this is just a reboot of A New Hope....and Luke will be a crazy old wizard living in some backwater planet secretly "watching over the next new hope"?

Exactly, how many times do the same folks need to come back and agree that they do not like it? We get it, you are displeased...maybe move on to the threads of toys you actually like? The same goes for pointing out what is wrong...again...we get it...there are many things wrong.....none of which any number of posts will resolve....only ET can resolve them if they wish to release a toy that will be more in line with modern toy collectors' expectations....I feel that some of the members have made very detailed explanations as to "what is wrong" and have posted pics to illustrate their point....constructive criticism is always welcome.....but rehashing the same complaints serves no purpose..... In a way this thread has turned into just a complaint fest...similar to how the Macross Delta thread was turning into a "what-if" or "I wish they do this" thread and ended up getting locked.... Maybe ET will decide to address some of the concerns posted on this thread (although wouldn't only the concerns posted by the Japanese market even matter to ET and if that is the case, why complain on this thread...for some Macross II catharsis? Hopefully, similar complaints are being made to ET from their primary Japanese market consumers).... .........Or simply just nuke the thread from orbit.....

Look at the size of that thermal detonator!!!!

Nice find...thanks for posting! It looks great....looking forward to getting it. On some pics it looks like it is not transformed correctly...with some parts not aligned or tabs not connected....so hopefully that is just human error and not poor fitment.... My only issue with the mold is the tabs on the chest piece....they really couldn't have hid those? I'm thinking they could have made them slide up/down or rotate....maybe someone can come up with a solution once it's out.... Oh....and looks like the pilot is still not painted...not happy about an unpainted fig on the retail version...but I can deal with it.... Ballziest toy release of the year!

The Battle 7 was apparently in the pipeline for Yamato....I wonder if Arcadia will go for it now that it's creator has expressed interest? Regarding the HMR line, as I noted in an earlier post...the list of remaining SDFM mecha is quite short...as for DYRL...if you include the HM releases....Bandai just needs Max's -1S and the Q-Rau to match Yamato's output....that is the kind of quick output that put Yamato out of business....for Bandai, at worse, the line will just fail again....but I think it will make it this time with no real competition (in the form of ultra discounted competitor offerings) this time around... Plus....the HMR line is offering toys never offered before at this level of detail and quality...namely the Regult, Spartan, Glaug, and Monster....personally, I'm all in based on these 4

http://tamashii.jp/t...ku/86/?lmode=en â– If there is any opportunity, and I want to three-dimensional the "Battle 7" of "Macross 7". I concur! So did Yamato..... Is Arcadia listening?.......
-
Ok....now the HM VF-1J is transformed correctly....... almost 30 years worth of Macross toy making evolution!
-
Really? Guess I should get around to reading these....
-
Also made an appearance in Macross the First....
-
It's not transformed correctly...I'll repost a pic in a bit...
-
You think this is a tough crowd?.....you should see the hate going on in the VF-2SS thread!

A 30 year Takatoku Macross Toy Quest….is Finally Over!
jvmacross replied to jvmacross's topic in Collectors
Thanks for all the comments! During my Takatoku search I believe I also managed to acquire all of the official publications released for the SDFM series....I will have to gather all of those books at some point for a group shot too! -
Kind of pin-like....but mostly I don't want to start a new "collectors" thread....
-
There are some settings on my phone's pic editing software...the one I used for that pic was called "cartoon"...

LOL...you guys are a harsh bunch! Anyway.....it's Macross II so it's going to have to be good enough for the time being....at best it is as good as anything animated on screen.....I'll just say it's closer to anime "accurate" than lineart accurate.... Hopefully the Japanese fans are more forgiving than some MW "fans"..... Or maybe someone can design a SAP for it if Evolution Toys flakes out......
