Yes, MrK said they were up in the front of planned releases. But nothing outside of that.

Every series has it's good and it's bad. From being an outsider only 2 years ago, to watching every single Macross show in depth. I can say standing back, there's only a few types on here. Fans ( they generally like everything ) Casual Anime fans ( Pretty open, lightly opinionated ) Macross enthusiasts ( they will argue the merits ) Film elitest ( Follow me or hear my opinion about how you suck ) Anime Elitest ( Your ear will hurt ) Typical forum douche ( yeah, these guys are everywhere, basically just minor trolls.) I heard some pretty distasteful views about M7, but I don't understand why so much hate is put with it. It was different, and a new stretch, but it's not that bad. There are plenty of worse animations. If anything it was just a long Fire Bomber Music collage.

This reminds me a lot of the 1:18 market. It essentially died, big companies went out of business. New items stopped being produced and secondary market values skyrocketed. Company A comes out and says we are making new product.. Forums: Stupid modern crap! Wrong livery! Wrong paint job! Nothing gets released! Why a delay ZOMG! Prototype picture looks like leading edge wrong Company engineers suck My son are a missile I only buy vintage When will you release overly huge, massively expensive niche item!?!?? Why so many details missing? I have to put on my own stickers? wAT? Finally a spokesman for the company responded basically with.. "F*** you" enjoy no products ever again. I clapped, lucky for Arcadia, none of us outside Japan matter. So my guess is they will never read the typical forum jargon and blabber.

Macross Collectibles Market Watch - Current Auction/Store SOLD prices
skullmilitia replied to jvmacross's topic in Toys
Nice work Yeti, I snagged a Set of Ozma supers for 67$ shipped off an American E-store. They still have some for 75$, but no one apparently want's to buy them lol. -
figure it out, because every time someone posts a local time, scalpers and resellers will cheat that way.

Robotech Academy - You want a new Robotech series...?
skullmilitia replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Live action movie.. haha that's funny. Last time I checked, having the animation rights only, means you can't use the designs from the animation in any other format. So a live action Robotech would have zero elements to the Macross saga including the SDF-1. What would be the F***ing point? Live action Shadow Chronicles? please, burning money would be more profitable. On top of the shenanigans, I have hear recently the rumor that HG sent BBTS a C&D for selling the Bandai Macross releases saying that it's "Illegally bootlegged macross" product. Hence why those YF-29 Preorders never got fulfilled. Talk about one hell of a stupidly ran company. Why would you stop anything that could possibly give more range in terms of getting fans. Instead of Ceasing everything in existence, all they had to do was throw a big stick on the box saying "check out RT.com for more Macross". The Level of incompetence in that business is just staggering.- 2025 replies

Arcadia 1/60 Perfect Transformation VF-0D for 2015
skullmilitia replied to Dark_Ghost's topic in Toys
I'm saying right now, it could be Pink and purple and come with a Sherly Nome dong, and I'd still buy it. Color, smolor. Really after the YF-19, I just want this thing to be strong, tight, and not break. If I could tell MrK efficiently to ignore the color mongering and focus on it's ability to not break. I would. Make sure those ankles are tight, and for god's sake, make sure that nose droop is fixed. That's what we should all be actually focused on. Color won't fix a big ass gap in the neck in fighter. -
Robotech Academy - You want a new Robotech series...?
skullmilitia replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I don't want the continuing adventures of Mospeada, and or southern cross. Most RT fans wants the story following Rick and Lisa. To which I say, should be left alone, because HG's staff has proven when it's time for them to actually do the story telling, they fail hard. So unless HG pays Mikiomoto, Kawamori, and the like to write a alternate universe to the Macross continuity, and tell a new story with the RT characters, there's no point in anyone asking for a new story. If Frank wants to make money, it's simple, invest in a good company to run Merchandise. I don't need coasters, mugs, mouse pads and stuff like that which I can source on my own, illegally or not. I want some high end collectible pieces that can *cross-over*. Meaning anything from any one of the original anime's can translate between Robotech and Macross, Mospeada, Southern Cross.. ect. For exsample, the book ends. While not my thing, If I had grabbed them before they had sky rocketed in price. The box may say VF-1S Roy Fokker vs. Battle Pod. In my Collection it would simply be VF-1S Roy Focker vs. Regult. It bridges the gap between both fan bases, and you essentially double dip. That's all it takes. While the new blind boxed mini figures from toynami are cool and all, it's just another rip-off of the vinyl art collections. On top of that, I'm pretty sure nobody here will ever trust Toynami to make a quality product after so many issues with releases. I don't know what the relationship with Bandai is, and or what damage was done by playing games with BW, and BW's influence on Bandai's control on selling to the US. But even a re-issue line of Bandai molds would be a hot seller, especially if they finally got off their ass and gave us the 1D, E1, and T1. I know it's a long shot, but that's money in the bucket.. finally getting the chance to own a vintage like 1D would hit every fan, group and collector in the heart like a reactive missile. Instead... Academy, and Robotech/Voltron. If Frank ever reads this, Fire the morons running this franchise. Start new, and just use your existing work. Use the license to make actual money. You don't need to waste money on projects. How much money did HG waste sending the three stooges to SDCC? How much productive time was spent to think up a failed concept?- 2025 replies

Robotech Academy - You want a new Robotech series...?
skullmilitia replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I agree here, essentially get a more compentent company to produce good Toys and collectibles with all the original Robotech characters, heavily staying in the Macross saga. You'll pull in both sets of fans. If I got a Bandai reissue that says Rick Hunter instead of Hikaru, I won't give A crap. Just make something that's not a complete piece of crap!!! Honestly, good collectibles would be a gold mine for HG, if they just stopped trying to reinvent the wheel, and embraced the old stories. Both fan groups would be happy. A VF-1J will look the same wether the box says Rick or Hikaru.- 2025 replies

skullmilitia replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I hope that this failure has HG drop the team completely and Maybe Frank walks away from even using Robotech. Eventually ignoring the license renewal. Which leads to a different question all together.. Dues Tats have the ability to renew HG's license after the lawsuit with BW?- 2025 replies

Arcadia 1/60 Perfect Transformation VF-0D for 2015
skullmilitia replied to Dark_Ghost's topic in Toys
Tenjin was just echoing what most of us were thinking... it's too blue. Thankfully, because it's usually a bigger deal to have an artist tell you the color is wrong, then a bunch of random internet gaijin. lol -
I imagine it's going to be be white, simple because we know they have the DYRL licensing.

No, actually he didn't this time. My previous badgering to him about the VF-4 seemed To indicate it was only a matter of getting the actual licensing for a alternate paint scheme. Even at one point telling me has personally trying hard to release it. Maybe it means they are closer to getting licensing.

Yes, regardless, it's to pretty of a fighter mode to not own it over unknown concerns.

I was just talking the MrK and he dropped a hint about VF-4 repaint.. "Can not do VF-4 yet, but will do so" I'm glad they realize that's a power seller.

Robotech Academy - You want a new Robotech series...?
skullmilitia replied to Einherjar's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I think we'd all be better off if all of this just stopped. If Robotech just got left alone, it might rise up in the future As a "it was good for its time". Like MASK, and shows that never got reboots. Honestly I've lost respect and love for the whole thing just from the politicing. Macross people : just stay the way you are baby. Robotech people: go watch Southern Cross and Mospeada and get an idea Of what it was before, expand your horizons. Dig into what you love, find the real Stories before being muddled with. And the last thing? I'd watch M7 a million times before watching anything Robotech after The Macross Saga ends. At least M7's front man doesn't dress like a chick! hA!- 2025 replies
