    Bandai DX VF-31

    Isn’t there a shapeways solution here?
  2. That was definitely an element, once upon a time..welcome to the new school “protector of Gotham”?? So this while Bruce is out having a midlife wealth crisis? Okay..we shall see..
  3. Ah so.. Thats awesome! Once I started playing RIFTS, wherein I could incorporate any theme or time line, especially RT(read Macross!) via the RIFFS, everything was converted to that system. I’ll be sure to study your work !
  4. Are these RPG stats palladium compatible?
  5. Wow. So many details, so little time.. Here’s that “unmanned fighter/bomber “ reference again..under 2009AD.. http://sdfyodogawa.mywebcommunity.org/MCRmechanic/Funs04aAIF-7Sghost.php
  6. ..Lol. Aoshima IMO..
  7. Very entertaining, as always

    Hi-Metal R

    Very cool! I’m hoping the launch arm and Zentradi hull stands are going to be our reality this year. It looks to be alive and thriving. I wouldn’t be surprised to see another release come out of nowhere.

    Kraykray! Is this real?
  10. “Enemy scout Rigādo units were at the mercy of the ghosts, which demonstrated maneuverability beyond knowledge, and were often destroyed before they comprehend what it was.” ”It May be safe to say that the SDF-1 and it’s shipboard VF-1 units were literally supported by the shadow of the ghosts (phantoms)” Kick ass! Thanks. Will do.
  11. Many, many thanks Aaron!
  12. It’s a Macross wiki thing. So I will ignore it. THanks!
  13. Well this should be interesting.. will Translucia Baboon (aka Alan Moore) be part of this.? If this is after the original story.. The original story ended quite definitively ,I’m not sure where they’re going with this now. Ozymandias pretty much achieved his goal, Roarschach got vaporized, Dr Manhattan probably left Earth for good and the Comedian won’t be in it...wah!
  14. Awesome! I love this particular aircraft. I’ve seen it described as an unmanned fighter/bomber. I’m aware of the six onboard 55mm(?) machine guns and the two on board missile bays. But is there any info regarding its ability to perform as a bomber. Does it even have the capacity? Is Macross Chronicle not a reliable source?
  15. Coming to the well for knowledge once again.. I’ve been trying to read up on the QF-300E Ghost, as it’s one of my latest resin model projects. I don’t have anything I can easily translate, so I’ve been reading the Macross wiki.. Apparently it was developed into the X-9 Ghost? And it’s space maneuvering characteristics helped in the development of the VF-X? It’s semi autonomous AI and remote controlled, I believe.. Maiden flight 2003. First engagement 2009 (booby trap). Are there any other noteworthy instances of combat duty before or after 2009?
  16. Washed and test fitting. Everything is well fitted, and looks clean , so far..
  17. Using one of these as the base for the Armored kit.. Cleaned and glued up some for test fitting..

    MΔ - VF-9

    Also, the magnet doesn’t pop off after a few uses...
  19. That’s redonkulous.. Its way beyond stylistic differences! Who’s version is true 1/72? I can’t imagine Hasegawa has had it wrong all this time, but The Retppu looks better..
  20. I’m not high jacking this thread! I blame Seto for being a conversational Hydra!( right down to the part where you cut one head off and another grows back) In popular culture “Cyber” is there. Professionally, I would expect you to cringe , and yes it is dated. But it’s still there! We’re way past the days of reading MONDO 2000, I know . You’re using real industry terms (probably) .But Terms like cyberwarfare( comrade, DARPA wants to talk to you!) , cyberspace, cyber cafe, cyberpunk(yeah!) hell,even Cybertron are still all over pop culture. I’m no expert on the subject, but I’ve been down with it for decades, like you, and even if it makes me laugh and think of hacking Nintendo power gloves , it’s still there..it’s ingrained. Now back to our regular scheduled discussion.. here’s one. When is the last time Kawamori San was asked about this? And did his eyes just glaze over?
  21. An interesting point on the VF-31, Messer’s seemed to be the most popular of the group.. @Scream Man for no.10, isn’t that YF-21 Omega 1? Or was that the movie version?
  22. And yet “cyber” is so ingrained now.. William Gibson May not have invented the word, but he sure coined the F**k out of it..
