  1. LOL, Nobdy whants this old cell animation bulls @it
  2. There are A LOT of factors when calibrating a display these days. Different manufactures use a mess of chipset methods to upscale, smooth, and get rid of frame cadence. Looks RAD on my sony.... But I first saw DYRL on a 3rd generation VHS tape on a CRT, so what do I know
  3. Been looking for that green book and this yellow book for years, I get close but they always alude me on yahoo japan. There is one up right now if anyone wants to go for the buy it now price: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h1168111268
  4. I knew it! Thanks all for confirming my suspicions
  5. Has anyone ever validated that the Flash Back 2012 Angel Paints segment actually played in theaters for DYRL's first release? I never believed it. Just seems like a jump in animation quality and style. Also, If I paid for the VHS or Laserdisc on release day I would be livid if that wasn't actually included. Just some weird fan rumor?
  6. Looks like the Wilde Sau won't be ready this WonFes
  7. Don't suppose anyone could recommend a proxy buyer so I can get my hands on RED FOX's Wilde Sau for this years wonderfest? Yeah, the ultimate question I'm sure... I have tried asking on my figure collection and just a general search to no avail. Anyways, this is what brought me back to this thread. I was so gentle with this thing, did work on the center hinge to build it back up, replaced hoses. The leg posts just finally disintegrated so that a small gentle movement made one give out. Figured I would touch up the gold a bit tonight since I got some super close copper gold paint.
  8. Success, I was unable to recreate the issue but I believe my solution was applying pressure / massaging the dark blue panels inside the leg with a computer pry tool. One more question if I may... Nothing in the instruction book but I'm curious, these panels behind the gunpods should the lay flat as on the left or up at an angle as on the right? Also, thanks all for all the help, Macross Plus Valks are almost as precious to my as my DYRL Valks
  9. Thanks, those are really good suggestions! Let you know as soon as I try it tonight depending on when I get home from work. I work in the IT field and power is being shut off to equipment all over LA because of fire concerns. Probably yet another 12 hour day…🥹
  10. I figured out what my issue is with the legs. Looks like the dark blue tab on the top image below doesn't slide all the way making one leg longer (image on the bottom is how far it should slide). There must be some part that is getting in the way but an hour or so of figiting with it had no results. Could anyone point out what I might need to concentrate on to get it to slide all the way in? I should have left it alone when it slid in properly the other day, wanted to get an unsderstanding of the idiosyncrasies mine posesses
  11. Finally got it! The legs just refused to go forward until I added just enough force to make me nervous…
  12. That is a pic earlier in the thread of some poor soul's that the hip joint broke.
  13. Ugh, what am I doing wrong here? Anymoon's video nor the instructions are helping me. Does this leg need to slide forward more? The wings refuse to tab in obviously.
  14. These ones? 😅
  15. This is the screw that should be loosened? Not sure if I have the strength to tackle that
  16. Late to the game, but I finally got my hands on a mint YF-19 Full Set pack thanks to Fred Su. An engineering marvel. What a horrible and unpleasent transformation to fighter mode, Don't think it will ever be transformed again. Is it my age? or is this thing a beast to get back to fighter mode? Think I need a drink.... Thankfully no damage to the hip joints.
  17. Got it! as soon as I rip the discs I'll see if any of my bizarre media player boxes will disable them and let you guys know if possible.
  18. Happy with the artbook, I don't recall ever seeing a good percentage of this production art. I have the Japanese DVD and Blu-Ray box, the two "this is animation" art books and some of this stuff I have never seen before. Now the hard subs of course are an atrocity...... Hoping to actually be satisfied with the Japanese DYRL 4K Blu-Ray, but we all know how terrible the video quality looked last time on the standard Blu-Ray. Fearful it will be a smoothed out AI mess.
  19. "- The English subtitles are always on when you switch to the Japanese audio track. You can't turn them off" What a total autrocity! Same master as the Japanese blu-ray right? Glad I still got my import set At least the book is cool, not much in the way of artbooks for M+
  20. Anyone that may have ordered from Anime Export. Have you heard anything back other than: Thank you very much for sending me the pictures, We will transmit them to the manufacturer and let you know as soon as we receive the replacement part. I'm cool if Bandai is ignoring them, but at least let me know... Been exactly 3 weeks.
  21. "Did several passes of heat gun followed by quickly clamping with a non-textured plastic clamp" Ha, Yeah, don't be like me
  22. Strange thing is mine friction fit pretty well, after seeing this post I removed them and reinserted a few times and no problem.
  23. Fire the whole assembly line!!!!!
  24. Seriosly dude...... You got FIVE of them? Bless ur heart!
  25. Crazy! I was working tons of OT when I got my YF-21, so when it arrived I didn't have much time to check it out. I brought it to work for a few days and just marveled at the engineering. I work at an aeronatical college and I had to fight off the "let me see it requests ^_^" LOL, I don't think the average person really gets what goes into the design of these "Airplane Transformers"
