I wonder if this will sell out or warm the shelves a bit? For you guys in Japan, are the HM-R VF-1s still easy to find like the Regults, or marked up at a premium price?

I don't think Bandai is purposely messing it up, they are probably just not as knowledgeable about "what color the missile tips should be", as some of the gurus on MW. Just remember there are all types of fans. For some fans like me who have followed since the mid-80's, my eyes don't catch some of these subtle differences, like a red arrow or a black arrow. They are really too small to make a big difference to me. Unless someone points it out, I would never catch it. But when I see Fast Packs are white instead of grey, even I cringe.

I guess these are next?

Milk the mold! Give us destroids already.

To VF-1J or not to VF-1J?

Banpresto

Its hard to tell the HM-R Destroids scale from the Tamashii diorama. But I compared the Monster, and the final version was spot on with the Diorama. So I think they had these planned way in advance.

My Glaug is on the way from Amiami. Its not only the Year of Macross, it's also the Year of Giant Robo!

That's not canon.

Except Arcadia's M&Ms will be pink glow-in-the-dark. I'll take the HMRs.

Looks great. Loving it.
-
I'm not a consistency nazi, but those M&M fast packs WOULD look better in a shade of gray. Usually I cant tell the difference between a VF-1 TV and Movie version.
-
Yeah, that's one thing I don't understand. They never made an Ozma, not even in HGIF.
-
Bandai also showed Breetai, Nos, and the Launch Arm. Do it Bandai!

Bandai seem to be going through with everything they displayed at the first Tamashi event. Only the Spartan is left from that diorama. Then Bandai followed up at the second big diorama by adding the 3 Destroids, the VT, and the VE at the later events. All in all, this is looking good.

Color scheme looked different at Tamashii stand before. Maybe not final?
-
I assume Big West would have to approve the color schemes, don't they?

Melts in your mouth, not in your hands.

The Bandai VF-25 and the VF-1 are about the easiest kits to build, with no modeling skills needed whatsoever. I never built a Hasegawa because I understand it takes a lot of knowledge and skill and paint. The VF-25 is by far superior to the VF-1. It holds together nicely and is pretty sturdy. Just gotta be careful during transformation to treat it like a model, not a toy. A While the VF-1 is a floppy mess in all modes, with easily broken tabs,

Looking at them side by side. I didn't realize how different they are. I wonder what will be the next Delta valk. The 30?

Macross World Podcast - feedback & comments
arbit replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
Amazing crowd at the mini-concert. It amazes me how much kids go for Gundam, though. I believe its purely from the marketing and merchandising effort behind it. Come on! Macross is so much more fun! Thanks for the response. Please elaborate when you have time. Your perspective is valuable because I think most people on the web who have written hundreds of opinions about Japanese Culture and Anime have actually never been there more than a few days. -
My idea for the poll was for age group interested in HM-R, not the whole site. I wonder if HM-R is trending a bit older, and how much of the younger audience has been brought into SDFM through Frontier and Delta.
-
I don't hate Mac7. I just hated having to watch it. Fire Bomber rocks. Somebody give us a MAX-L already. I need a pink valk!
-
Lots of old school SDFM fans for HM-R. Feelin' right at home. I would be interested in a survey on the age groups interested in this line.

Patlabor not getting a lot of love.
