Capped from the ANBU/ANIMEONE version of Episode 2. It's the first mention of their Master/Apprentice relationship (much like the Dark Sith Lords). And they have many things in common. Like their womanising.....

ROFLMAO! It so does....so disturbing.

I thought it was established since episode 2 that DD is Roy's Instructor. Hmmm...not really. I'm quite sure everything can be cleared up by the next episode. What else do we really need to know? What is the APHOS-1? How is Mao and Sara connected to it? (they are probably descendants of Rooy Kanu) How does Roy take on DD and save the day? (VF-1....w00ts!!) And lastly, what happens to all the characters by the end of Macross Zero 5 and how it ties in with SDF Macross. I'm quite sure they can manage those. But don't expect too much. I think they're gonna leave out some stuff for viewers to make their own guesses.

Its quite a wonder that with some "simple" joint modifications, the toy looks 100x better.

*Sees kakizaki blushing and turning red* Yes, that's a Yamato release. But granted, some of those are cool poses done with it. Edit: wait up dudes....those look like comparison shots. The ones on the left are the Yammies and the ones on the right are the custom. crap! No wonder I was wondering why did they look better in some pictures. Those are definately customs. The head sculpt , and leg joints were a dead giveaway...although not very obvious at 1st glance.

I got my YF-21 for US63 today. Not the cheapest, i know, but its worth it. I read many times about the problems ppl faced with this toy...and I'm happy to announce that I had quite a satisfactory toy. 1stly, I want to comment the major difficulty I had with the toy was, it falls apart with the legs dangling when converting from fighter mode to gerwalk the 1s time. Everything comes out and I had quite some difficuly trying to get it all snapped in place in gerwalk mode. Otherwise, it stands pretty well in gerwalk mode with legs positioned properly. Battroid mode, I was also able to make it stand on the 1st try. I can see why some ppl could've had problems with it, since the legs are rather floppy. But rotate the thighs abit and you'll get it to be standing up quuite stable...unless u accidentally pushed it. The gunpod hands also snapped in easily into the ball joint. I think I read somewhere that someone (i think Graham?) had to take apart the hand to put the gunpod arm into the socket. No such problem for me. The toy lacks poseability in battroid and gerwalk mode...but it looks good in both modes. But of course, the best and most solid lookin mode would be the jet mode. I give it a 8/10. I'd post pictures, but i'm sure all of you are well aquainted with the YF-21 FP. Question: This toy doesn't come with a sticker guide? How do i know where to stick this stuff or are they just for customisation purposes?

Not sure. But usually if its plastic, the plastic is already colored as it is.

Watched the ANBU-AONE sub today. *whistles* Yes...with VF-0S destroyed, there's more likely a 50/50 chance that the VF-1S shows up to kick Ivanov's sorry ass. And no Edgar for the entire episode.....phooey.

haha, how reliable is that seller? He probably got ahold of the US plastic version, took it out of the box, stuck a decepticon sticker, back in the box.. and voila! $500 geniune prototype! I don't think the US Hasbros are even out yet.....are they?

Today at a local shop, i saw this shop selling a "so-called" BT-04 Hound Prototype. It was all plastic but colored, and had decepticon logos on its head cover and registration plate, but otherwise looks exactly like hound (albeit non die-cast). It was sellin much cheaper than the original BT-04. Is this really a prototype or just some kinda bootleg?

The party time ones look good! I want them! The pajama 2 one, not sure. Rei looks too white (yeah yeah i know she's albino, but not THAT white). Those poses are the exact ones printed on the Eva bedsheets.

I don't get this....this is silly... why is it like they are treating it as a randomly white/red order?

Aww give him a break. I kinda missed the Max Q Rau when I 1st watched DYRL? as well. It was only there for a few frames.

Did those "swords" happen to be Gunblades? ZOE 2 had crappy story/dialogue, but otherwise fun gameplay. Sam: Can you get zero casualties on the entrance to Ahm big battle ?

Not quite. http://www.cadtutor.net/dd/bryce/anim/anim.html ( http://www.google.com/search?q=keyframe%20...F-8&sa=N&tab=gw ) That's exactly what i was thinking, except not the actual drawing of the cels for it. Thanks again.

Remember, Otaku no Video is a parody. There's lots of in-jokes in there. Thanks Azrael. Appreciate it. And i Have to ask, what's key animation? Drawing of key cel frames?

I second that.

*embarassed* 1/48 = 1 1/60 = 1 Both Roy VF-1S Strikes.

That's what I meant with the bad transformation issue. Not sure if the knees can bend anymore. It probably can. The right leg's knee armor panel is out of the heel, causing that part not to bend any further. Maybe that's why they thought its as far as it goes. Who gets these prototypes anyway? I thought this was Yamato releasing photos of its prototypes, not some dolt who didn't know what he got his hands on?

What is Hideaki Anno's involvement with Macross? I see his name mentioned a few times on the board in relation with hory froating head and there seems to be some kinda macross fanart here by Anno himself. (unfortunately its a broken link) http://member.nifty.ne.jp/musyuku/BOOTLEG.html Then there's also the Otaku no video OVA which mentions the Elintseeker as his design....which someone pointed was an in-parody/joke.

I am very interested in the Armored Gerwalk, but pictures of it (whether line art or models) are scarce. These are what I can dig up from the older threads. The official lineart. A model (looks miniature like a K&M) Another model And another And there's one in one of the magazine scans which I won't bother posting ere. ANyone got more than those already posted?

I love that Rei! Gimme gime! Can i buy it prepainted?

Dude I was just thinking the same thing Indeed....scary isn't it?

Nah...i think you're not the only one. Nice custom btw, Rabidweezil.

I only have one 1/60....the Roy VF-1S STrike valkyrie....and if i get the armor set only....I feel like customing it to the kick ass GBP custom on model japan or whatever mag it was.
