    Macross Books

    locidm replied to Penguin's topic in Collectors

    I got my copy of the Mikimoto book today. It's so thick and uses high quality paper. Each page feels substantially thick. This is only my second Mikimoto book so I'm pretty happy! I gotta say though, I enjoy his art from the 1980's the most. It seems over time his taste and mine grew further apart. Out of the more modern pieces, I like the ones from Macross Ace the best. Otherwise, 1980's stuff please! I noticed that the book does include the fantastic new Ishtar sketch that Mikimoto made for the patch/acrylic stand that would be included in the Macross II kickstarter blu-ray campaign. So something new!

    Ah thank you. I’ve seen the product listing before but didn’t expect it to look that nice next to the Yamato. Perhaps it’ll be easier to tell it’s paper craft in person or at different angle. Very nice color scheme. I wish I have the skill time and patience.

    Which company made that TV SDF-1? That Yamato monster looks nice. Never picked up one.

    I am getting more and more doubts on this. Yes I want all the products. But even Bandai has never released more than one or two products in the same line at the same time. KC is telling us they are taking preorders for 7 mechs and at least 4 figures without a prototype to show for it and asking for large amount of payment based on sketches.

    I was really impressed with the soundtrack. The vocal tracks were amazing.

    My brother is getting back into Macross after 30 years thanks to the streaming on Hulu. I recommended him to start with zero, then plus, then go straight to Frontier. He asked about 7, I said it's really hard to watch unless you're a big Macross fan. While there are some charming moments, the plot just does not move forward much. Then he said, oh that sounds great, because he can watch it in the background and not worry about missing key moments.

    My first release limited edition from yokakunow just arrived. No poster. It does come with the A4 size acrylic board with Mikimoto's illustration on it, the '84 summer badge, and the "signed" screenplay.

    To me the biggest change is the colors, really makes it pop like cels. However, not all is good, the shot with Miria, her green hair seems oversaturated, so is the skin tone of one of the Minmay shots. There are shots where the 2016 version looks better, but for the most part this 4k release looks better.

    Thank you all! Good info

    Oh this is good to know! THank you. Sounds like you only need either Disney+ or Hulu by itself and a bundle is not required.
  11. locidm
    I canceled my Disney+ subscription awhile back. Question: Do you need the Disney+ / Hulu bundle to see Macross shows? Or would just the Disney+ subscription do the trick?

    Side question, is there any trick to get the flashback bluray that came with the Japanese DYRL to play in US bluray players? Mine would not play. The DRYL disc was fine though.

    This section is focused on Macross. Mospeada has its own thread in the anime section: There are some discussions on the Moshow Cyclone toward the end of the thread.

    If you send one my way, I'd be happy to build it and deliver the finished product to you across the bay.

    Having these stands really make a big difference. Also, found a great use for the art card that came with the Blu-ray set.

    The girl in white dress goes well with the dude in white valk.

    I'm glad to see they used a current conversion rate when pricing the tread on amazon US. It'll be about the same or cheaper than ordering from Japan even with taxes.

    I have not and just shot an email to them yesterday but haven't heard back.

    Haha, I didn't notice this before Few frames later:

    What are the risks with supporting kickstarter? If they make the target then they'll charge us and produce the toys. If they don't make the target then they'll not charge us. I guess the worry is that they make the target, take the money, and then somehow tanked and disappear without consequence?

    denk, i want everything there.......

    Standees - I hope they're thinking about doing an acrylic one. Since they're talking about a base, I'm assuming that's the case. Ishtar looks great!
  23. locidm
    Thank you. I just got the same email.

    I don't see why anyone would pay that kind of money to Toynami for an outdated design. If they release the original godaikin mold, sure, but this after we have the SOC, threezero, and Blitzway? No thank you.

    Has anybody gotten replacement parts from Bluefin yet? It's been two months and absolute silence on my front.
