I'll be spending a lot less time now....

I'm thinking it could also have to do with the fact that we know what they folks are in for..... But, yeah....we already know what is going to happen....I think eventually the viewer may come to "connect" with this family...we must....or we just won't be emotionally vested when the sheit hits the fan and some of them fall victim to what we know must come to pass....it happened to the Grimes family.....and we'd all be outraged at this point to see little ass kicker become a walker snack.......the FtWD showrunners have a tough job with making us feel the same for a junkie.....good luck to them.....would love to see them pull it off.....it would mean great TV.....

I think there is a limit to how many times the bidders can extend the clock....not sure if it is based on the actual bids or the amount of time from the original ending time... I've kept many a Japanese Macross collector up way past their bedtime!

Wish ebay did that...or at least gave sellers the option. It's more like a true auction that way....it ain't over until no one is left to bid any higher... Sorry you got outbid....but that just means you have a chance at getting it for less next time....these VF-4's don't command what they used to...

So are you are saying Arcadia can't afford it or it is just not available to anyone at the moment? Because attaining one from any media that included a VF-4 would resolve the "current situation" of not having one...wouldn't it? Unless you are also insinuating that Arcadia has no desire in re-releasing it at all?

Can't unsee that now....

"Current situation"?...I assume you go into that in your blog... Only thing that could keep Arcadia from making more would be the absence of a license for a VF-4 and/or the inability to afford one that includes it... With that said, perhaps we are expecting too much from Arcadia....a VF-4 may actually be a better possibility from Bandai or some other company (much like the VF-2SS)...

Finally had a chance to watch thru the entire first episode of FtWD... Not bad...but not sure how this could be a whole new series....should have just been a mini-series at most. In the "behind the scenes" clip it is mentioned that the events of this show are the the time Rick is stuck in the hospital...how long was that? The one thing that was interesting in the episode was that it was mentioned that the same things were already being reported in 5 states... The one thing I hope this show has the freedom to explore is an explanation of why the zombie apocalypse is unfolding...I also want to know if it spreading across the whole USA...if it is global....and more importantly if there are any areas that are unaffected.... This whole thing can easily be some kind of biological weapon gone wrong....but it could also be some new drug cure for something that went wrong...or how about a biological attack on the US?...doubt that last one though...as the guy from the CDC in one of the early season episodes of tWD kinda seemed to insinuate this was home-grown....but who knows... In the age of instant news and tweets...if the show doesn't at minimum show if this is happening anywhere else in the world...then it's pretty lame... One final thought....in the show...they cut classes short and insinuate that it was as a result of the police video showing the attack of the walker....really? Why would a school system do that? What I'm hoping is that the video was an excuse for the government/military to start shutting down places where large groups of people congregate....would probably want to shutdown airports too...and start isolating the areas of contagion...judging by how well they did that in Atlanta....seems LA should unravel into a much greater cluster-fook....

Maybe Arcadia can release a VF-4 under a Macross the First license?

Your ashes can finally become one with it!

God was wise to give us two of most everything important!

BIG SUMMER BLOWOUT!!!! 25% Off! Better hurry before all the good stuff is gone!!!

Guess now we know why The Walking Dead hardly deviates from the source material.....

Not from Arcadia......

Maybe they used up all the grey dye on the recent GBP VF-1J's visor...

Good stuff!

This one has "boo" written all over it! http://page11.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n153061050

Guess I'll add these to the list of Macross 7 collectibles.... Micro Macross Macross 7 VF collection....

well, at least some buyee bidder stuck it to him this time....I don't see this particular cel having gone past the 10K JPY mark if it wasn't for "boo" on YJA aka "urbantreasurehunter" on ebay..... That is the sad part, he will list it at $400 USD on ebay and it will never sell...even at his 25% discount "sale" prices....all he does is keep a collector from getting a good deal on a cel......

Overpriced Macross cel coming soon to an ebay auction near you! http://page9.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/k194085897

Most of the times...but they also have nicer examples more often.... This one went kinda low.... maybe our friendly ebay cel dealer nabbed it! http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/auction/item/itemInfoEn.html?index=312712

Well, anyone here wishing to bid on his cels can find his auctions posted in the "Auctions of Great Absurdity" thread on a regular basis!
