  1. We'll have to wait for Macross Chronicle V 5.0 to put this debate to rest!
  2. It has grey googles when armored.... Takani agrees.... .....so does Tenjin.... ...so should you!!!

    Perhaps it will be released as a modern version of the Takatoku Conversion Set....that way we get the Phalanx too!
  4. If DarrinG had not pointed it out I would not have known about it...but yes, the price is very reasonable considering what original SDFM cels are going for these days...

    I hope so too....however, they currently seem unwilling to release even less risky stuff like a VF-1D...so not sure about a Spartan in 1/60.... And completing the set with a 1/60 Monster would probably only be the luxury of perhaps 5 collectors during some future WonderFestival.... I'll be happy with a full, in-scale complete set at 1/100 though.....hopefully the Monster doesn't turn into "legend".....

    Excellent observation! You may have just caused the market price for the Takatoku conversion set to skyrocket! At last a Spartan and a Monster to go with the 1/100 Takatoku conversion set!.....the Spartan "mold" is actually reminiscent of the old 1/100 Takatoku destroid molds...as long as you have 3 Takatoku conversion sets you're good to go! Very interesting how Bandai settled on releasing the Spartan and Monster first.....I bet they have the mold for the Takatoku conversion set buried in some warehouse somewhere!!
  8. Around $50 for the two character and $35 for the single character......so as you very well know, a fraction of the cost of an original production cel......very nice quality, but the choice in colors could have been tweaked a bit....the artist is very responsive and if I had cared to be more "involved" in the process...I'm sure the colors could have been more "on-screen" accurate....In short, a very well done hand-painted fancel....I'm satisfied with it and will probably commission some mech cels next.... As for the background....It is laser printed...I did not ask if she could hand paint one, but pretty sure she could if you wanted to go that far with it....money talks as they say!
  9. I'll wait for the Jungle Cruise movie!
  10. The only VF-1 schemes left to be done Arcadia will never do....
  11. Anniversario VF-1J DYRL MOVIE EDITION VF-1S ROY DYRL MOVIE EDITION VF-1S HIKARU YF-19 MACROSS PLUS VF-19 KAI 20th anniversary W/SOUND BOOSTER COMBO VF-0D SHIN KUDO Coming soon... GBP-1J COMBO VF-0S VF-0A
  12. This poor movie....all it needs now is to get hacked by the North Koreans..... I'll give it a chance....the concept of Batman fighting Superman and winning was absurd when Miller did it too....I mean Superman was shown sinking a Soviet aircraft carrier IIRC...LOL!
  13. So far that is it...in terms of editions dedicated to primarily one VF.... There is another one that was just released, but it is more of an illustrated story of sorts.....the thread for that on is here.... http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=42387 I would say this is not the appropriate forum...as this is mostly a place to post "collections" of different things in various categories...for example, there is a dedicated "books" topic within the collectors forum....but it is mostly to post pics and not much discussion.....but this topic would perhaps have been the best place to "ask" about what is available.... http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=29133 ...but "discussions" about books would probably get more visibility in the general Macross forums...here: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showforum=2
  14. Yep...I've always said you can't include Mandarake when trying to determine market price of anything....they are basically a collectibles pawn shop....sure, you get great deals..but that's because they are buying their items off of collectors for less than 50% of market value..... Here is a list of what they pay for Macross items.... http://www.mandarake.co.jp/information/buy/toy/macross.html
  15. This thread needs more VHD!!! Always liked the trippy sci-fi art on the Macross SF Challenge Game cover....and what's with Minmay in a fetal position?
  16. I bought a set of the decals to bring some life to the toy version.....imo, the toy version is the most boring thing Yamato put out....if they ever decided to release a tv version....my dyrl would never see the light of day again....maybe
  17. Whoever bought it got a nice deal....just placing the decals alone on the ARMDs makes it more interesting than the pre-built Yamato.....
  18. My thoughts exactly! Crossing fingers!
  19. I just thought the Rebellion could not afford better tech until Jedi...either bought it outright or had it "donated" by sympathizers....since they took out DS1....would make sense for someone to finance/provide better weapons for their attack on DS2....
