Why is the VF-19 holding a Zentran-sized head of lettuce?

Thanks for the info....I wonder, now that the Bandai parts are available for closer inspection, if anyone will try to 3D create the parts for the Arcadia version...

Anyone try the Bandai wing armor on the Arcadia? To me the Bandai (in battroid mode) looks like what a 1/60 Yamato V 1.5 could have looked before they released 1/60 Arcadia (Yamato) V 2.0..... I have to say that Bandai nailed the colors...plus they win many points with their tampo....also really like the color they chose for the armor........until I get one...I would say it is a very close tie between the 2 based on all the great shots posted so far....

looking forward to the box art for these releases.....

The red witch conveniently showing up at Castle Black should give some idea of Jon Snow's upcoming "status". I'm more interested in knowing the outcome of the Brienne/Stannis encounter......something tells me he was spared (for the moment)......if so, who/what could have stopped brienne from finishing the job?

They should just dump the name "Macross" and simply go with "Δ".....then commence with distributing it internationally! Δ (The series formerly known as "Macross")......

The old school weirdness is what makes is cool for me.... I'm guessing you may have seen it in one of these books.... http://www.macrossworld.com/macross/books/_books_models.htm Maybe the static pose is why it looks weird to you...unless you also think no3's pics look weird too?

Well....the gunpod at the same scale or close was 5k usd I think?

Pre-order open anywhere yet?

So is it in scale with the recent gunpod?

Thanks for the info....I may yet pick one up if they come down to 50% off or more..

So is it too soon to call this a bust? Based on just "sold" auctions on ebay...it does not seem like many are buying it....

Future holy grail.... Not a kit guy...but if the toy looks anything like the pics....I'd be fine with it

Still an insta-buy

Anyone getting this? Personally waiting for a 3P to offer something non SD.... Was done with SD Macross after the Makurosu.....

I hope not

Searching "Macross" comes up with 8000+ pics....how about just posting the direct link to the pic? Using advanced search isn't helpful either...

Wow...someone got shilled....this is why it sux to place your max bid before the auction ends.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Masei-911-Blue-Xcross-Motocross-Motorcycle-Dual-Macross-Robotech-Gundam-Helmet-/261911641323?nma=true&si=%252FPuw0R6gM3FbG2LSm3AZbZUUCtU%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

LOL...the pic of the regult I assume?....have the direct link to it?

no worries.... ...but that is exactly the sentiment these online shops are hoping for from their overseas customers.....i would still advise you contact them....if anything, their response will help you decide where to shop next time....

Contact AmiAmi and you'll likely get the standard "we do not assist overseas customers with part replacements or exchanges".... I'd give it a try first though....see if they may have changed their ridiculous policy.... With that failing to give you any kind of resolution acceptable to you....the only other option would be to request a conplete refund, which will require the return of the entire item as received.... Hopefully, you used Paypal....that would be the easiest return process....otherwise you will need to work through the return via whatever credit card company you used.... Good Luck!

yeah...the Japanese text could have been easily 'lifted" from the existing line art for the Regult...or from any other mecha really....it's just generic names for the weapons and features...nothing that distinguishes anything as "Macross" specific..... "Main Cannon"...."Rear laser machine gun"...."missle pods"...."Sensor"...etc it's a nice illustration....just don't think it is an official Big West illustration....

Not an Orguss fan so had to look up some of the line art...but yeah...I see the references....especially the side cannons/guns.... The art resembles no current style used by any of the major Macross mecha illustrators (Kawamori, Miyatake, and Tenjin).....sooner it looks like something you'd find done by a fan on Deviantart....kind of like this... The only other "Japanese" quasi-official source could be a doujin featuring Macross artists' take on futuristic/alternate takes on Macross designs... I believe there was a pic of an "updated" destroid in on of the Macross F doujins.....here: So what forum is it? Who knows maybe it is concept art for the Robotech live-action movie
