they do look really good for this display but its a shame they didn't make them in a larger scale! even if it was 1/72 it would have been a closer and somewhat acceptable size against the 1/60 Valkyrie's. Although any bigger and they wouldn't have fit in this display!

So I thought I'd do some more display reshuffling work to my Macross collection today. I went to change mode and setup a pose for my Percival and the first thing I noticed is that both ankle joints are crazy loose and floppy. So much so that Battroid mode is simply out of the question! I didn't have the mental strength or will to start pulling the thing apart and attempt to tighten up but I was able to find a decent pose in Gerwalk which will do for now. Also the right arm joint above the elbow is pretty loose too and it can only just hold up the weight of the gun pod. Still I do love the thing but to see such loose joints pretty much straight out of the box is quite disappointing to say the least.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Really!? Not at all!? Id love to get another so i could display it clean in fighter! -
mate don't feel so bad.. believe me this goes around!

I really like that dirty tin can look! Gives it that deployed / used look! I know that if they ever made that grey CF color that it wouldn't have the dirty look but the grey really appeals to me just like real life fighters in the field. It would be an instant buy for me!

im still calling it a tie between them but yes I do love all the little gimmicks Bandai threw in! Makes for a fun and interesting toy! And its quite the joy to handle too! Not that the Arcadia isn't, its just the Bandai does feel a little better in hand.

I have noticed a few times that I would be flicking through the forum and next thing I know I appear to have logged out of the site.. Has anyone been experiencing this at all? I wonder if its just a browser issue or the site playing up?
-
indeed it does look fantastic! And yes it is rather unfortunate that Arcadia is demanding a premium for these.. I guess we just have to like it or lump it eh.

spanner replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
that is a fantastic price! well done on scoring that deal! sheesh! I paid $300 for just the armor parts alone! yeah! the VF-25S is pretty sweet suited up with Armors! Just how bad ass does this b!tch look! -
ahhh hahaha! well hey look at it this way.. you now have a VF-19P! which is probably the sexiest of all the 19's! And whats wrong with bread and water!? they are delicious! Oh I would have taken the 19P over Isamu's 29 any day! As much as I do like that 29, it could wait for another day. yes.. yes indeed!

initially I was convinced that the Arcadia was the better toy.. but the Bandai makes up so much ground detail wise that the Arcadia simply cannot match no matter how many stickers / decals you applied. The Arcadia toy with its more chunky build especially in battroid certainly makes it appear more anime accurate but the fact the Bandai blows it out of the water with its superior detailing makes it a super close fight! I have come to appreciate the quite equally now and it would be a difficult to chose either if I had to.
-
I don't mind that little blue detail at all actually! If it even remains with the final release version. If not them im not particularly fussed.. I assume you are referring to its intended release yes? End of this month apparently..

yeah it kinda looks a little more alien in this color doesn't it! I'd love a Regult in 1/60..
-
are there any spots on the drone that could possibly accommodate a stand of some kind? I was thinking of maybe using something similar to stands from the Luca's ghost fighters sit on.. Like what the Bandai VF-19Adv comes with to support the boosters..

I really enjoyed both these series! And I heard there is now a english dub of Attack on Titan download available! I wouldn't mind re-watching it in english! -
Medicom/Hot Toys and all 1/6 scale figures
spanner replied to EXO's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Yikes! that's a bit rich! It doesn't even look that good a figure to begin with! I now don't feel so bad spending upwards or beyond $300 for my Valkyrie's after seeing the price of that Prime figure! -
The Unofficial Macross Sight Gag Thread
spanner replied to the white drew carey's topic in Movies and TV Series
1955!? so I take it that's a typo then! -
im thinking I might have to up the CF-0 count to 2! Shin x1 Roy x2 (1 clean, 1 reactive armor) CF x2 (for posing purposes..) will also need to find a second (cash no tax) job to fund all this!
-
absolutely yes! A low vis or simply a standard issue CF grey paint (as pictured below) would be epic!
