  1. The currently airing anime Anime-Gataris just had a Macross parody in it.
  2. I was finally able to get my hands on the Saturn V! I went into my local Lego Store on a whim, and was surprised to actually see five units on the shelf. I'm so happy that my search is over.
  3. I'd run out and buy the set if it wasn't sold out everywhere! Even the Lego site is out of stock.
  4. I just discovered today that they now have a VF-31J Super Siegfried kit!
  5. Finally managed to visit Gundam Planet (funny how it's the first time visiting there despite the fact that it's only 1 hour and 20 mins away) today and picked up the long, sought after MG Geara Doga kit! Now all I need for them to make is a MG Jagd Doga and I'll have all the Char's Counterattack suits that I like!
  6. Actually, none of those illustrations are Tenjin's since they were done in the early 80's long before Tenjin's career started. They're from two collections of art portfolios that contain art from several Macross artists.
  7. How many directors does this make now?
  8. I just watched the first episode of Made In Abyss and found it to be quite intriguing. It has a bit of a Miyazaki feel to and I'm definitely looking forward to seeing more.
  9. I really hope that they'll be producing more Saturn V sets, I really want one, but don't want to pay the jacked-up prices that some places are offering at the moment!
  10. The Dreadnought is tiny compared to the Andromeda! Speaking of the Andromeda, I should be getting mine either tomorrow or Saturday.
  11. It certainly did, in fact anime cost MORE back then than it does now. Right now I'm looking at the July 1984 issue of Animedia that has an add for anime video tapes with prices ranging from 6800 yen for a 30-minute long tape of Dallos to 17,800 yen for the 90-minute Urusei Yatsura film, Only You. Those Blurays are cheap in comparison!
  12. No, he was talking about the Andromeda of SBY. I showed him a picture of the upcoming Bandai kit and that's what he based his opinion on. I can definitely see his point, if you take away everything but the main body, the Andromeda could pass as a fighter's fuselage. As far as the no subtitles things go, it's not a deal breaker for me considering how much unsubtitled anime I own from back in the day. Am I disappointed? Definitely.
  13. A co-worker of mine said something very sacrilegious about the Andromeda. Said individual said the the Andromeda's design is lame because he thought that it looked like they just took a jet fighter and made a spaceship out of it. I told him that he had no idea what he was talking about!
  14. I would definitely buy a Wilde Sau if they made one! I'd also love to see Arcadia make the mass-produced GR-02 Garlands as well as the Dezalg fighter.
  15. Back when it was originally released, the fan name for that was Plastic Nipple!
  16. The Andromeda looks so menacing in this new trailer! I'm also really digging what sounds like a new version of Gatlantis' theme. I can't wait to see how the new Empire city/fortress is going to look!
  17. I thinks that it's pretty amazing that they're launching without catapults.
  18. The Thunderbird S looks like Kawamori took one of the designs from Engage Planet Kissdum and changed it up a little!
  19. While I liked the series, I definitely didn't love it like I did the original or Frontier. I was totally expecting Lady M to be of far more importance than they made her, and I'm still quite disappointed that they never revealed her identity.
  20. For years, I always thought those kits were either knock-offs or used kits that didn't have their original boxes!
