kicker is the display and custom master

Not sure, but wasn't the original series planned for only 27 episodes? If so, this may be Mikimoto's way of keeping to that original plan....suits me fine as this story has already strayed a bit from the original.....I just hope it does not become the new "canon" version of the events of SDFM Space War I....I saw from the pics posted that there is some Mac 0 stuff....so maybe...

Sort of a book..printed media....... Animage Macross Portfolio

darn...still no color illustration of the SDF-1....

.....you just need one decal....DO IT!!!!!!

That's right...the 1/48 Max and Milia fully decked out in armor and fast packs are works of art..... I was hoping that we would see the return of the 1/48 line, in the form of some exclusives, with the revised Macross Chronicle.....a 1/48 VF-1S TV and VF-1A TV mass production would have been nice and easy for Yamato/Arcadia to produce.....
-
Another "sleeper" is the 1/48 VF-1J Hikaru TV with Fast Packs combo set.....AFAIK, it's the only way to get a set of 1/48 scale TV fast packs....
-
Is it yellowed?...If so, it will affect the price.... Guess you didn't see this thread huh? http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=33780

All the "option parts" to not be optional?
-
I have to agree with you but I bought it anyways when it first came out .....stuff like that is probably why Yamato ended up where it did....just got too cocky, made too much, too fast....it was a great ride while it lasted.....
-
I agree....one-offs can't be holy grails as there is no chance you will ever find one..... With that said....do we all agree on how a holy grail should be defined...in the context of the typical yamato macross collector looking to complete a collection in the future? I do not think a typical collector will desire the HDP kit as much as the actual fully built toys..... HDP kits are more for the higher-end collector...dare I say "elite"? I personally would not say that someone's collection is not "complete" if they did not own all or any of the HDP kits..... But what about the Zentradi "dress-up" clothes for the VF-1A dolly...errr....I mean Valk!!!.....Would that need to be a part of a complete 1/60 Yamato collection? Those are dang hard to find these days...the last one went for 25000 JPY on Yahoo Japan: http://page10.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/m110567911 Grail status?
-
Plus I think it was the only way to get the "clown hands" for the Max TV 1/48 VF-1A...also an exclusive from Macross Chronicle....and arguably a holy grail itself..... Interesting....for perspective, do you know what a typical run was for a regular issue valk...like say a VF-1J Hikaru or VF-1S Roy? Either in 1/48 or 1/60 scale?
-
How about the Macross Chronicle 1/48 Hikaru weathering edition with the fast packs....how many of those actually get made?....actually it's the fast packs that set it apart.... And with that said....I had hoped for more exclusives from the re-launched Macross Chronicle....hmmmmmm? Perhaps their is still hope....a fool's hope
-
Whatchoo talkin' bout Willis!?!?
-
...and if Arcadia decides to abandon the perfect variable line..... What will go down as the "HOLY GRAIL" of the Yamato Macross complete toy line (1/100, 1/72, 1/60, and 1/48) for those who may one day decide they must "have them all"?
-
When I hear "game over" it will always mean this scene to me.....until I die....at which point it will actually be "game over"....at least around these parts!

Gawk at these piles of Macross toys..Back in the day...

Saving the pic....some of my stuff may be in those pics! Remember getting stuff from Twin Moons Anime too......still have shipping boxes with his logo! -
Agreed...I think I'll only grab the new cover issues.....kinda thankful it's only 30 new covers....DeAgostini could have easily "swindled and pimped" us into getting them all!!!
-
VF-22 Gamlin gone??? The perennial shelf warmer!!! I do believe that is one of the signs of the (Macross) apocalypse....
-
Yep...Issues 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9...all new Tenjin art.....issue 1 is a reuse of the original issue 1 valk art...only the character art on the cover changed (I guess you can argue that the small YF-29 pic on the cover, plus spread inside, is also new for that issue)....Issue 6 was a recycled image, as will be issue 10 (VF-4).... So probably not many all new cover art coming our way.... ...plus we'll probably have to wait a while to actually see it all.....I'm hoping for some Varuta valk art and more from Macross II.....we'll see what Tenjin comes up with I guess

Think that is a poster from issue 50...but it reminds me of the 3D poster sold at the Tokyo Anime Center last September:

VT-1/VE-1...Issue 49:

The multi valk pic looks like the image used for the 3D poster....
