    Mean while no news from Ami Ami.

    Yeah Barry was good.

    I love ordering from Amazon JP. My book was shipped yesterday and is here today.

    Stupid bank. I preordered this from Amazon. Couple days ago during the early am hours my card was charged. The bank saw a foreign location and sent me a text. I approved it when I saw it in the morning. Guess that wasn't fast enough. Amazon Japan didn't send me a notice that repayment was needed. I just decided to login to Amazon a couple days later. Saw I had to resubmit payment. Same thing almost happened with my VF-1J.

    Macross figures

    Roy Focker replied to CF18's topic in Toys

    Okay I'll bite. Ordered one from BBTS cause $4 shipping is better than $8. The pics aren't that impressive but this might be the only modern action figure for this character. Is his dress going to be semi-soft plastic with slits to allow for some leg movement?

    Pretty sure the movie deal killed the franchise's progression. When someone buys the rights to the movie it can put a freeze on most things.

    Yeah the Regult Scout would be an easy one for them to make. They would just have to modify an existing design instead building 100% from scratch. Same goes for the Tomahawk.

    I love the bikes. As for the jet. I prefers valkyries but the legioss is still a cool design. I know it's going to be premium price and that giant size head may keep me away from getting one.

    Does it fit in an IKEA Detolf?

    It was our 40 yr old parents back in the day who said no to you for buying toys over $10. Now your $1000 is just making the wrongs of past right.
  12. Roy Focker
    Need to see pics of the other modes. But getting a full collection of the bikes.

    Kawamori is basically like Lucas. Somebody really good at coming up with great ideas but requires other masters of their craft to make them possible.

    I think parts of your theory are correct according to my research. Toy companies don't own the factories that make their product. They pay factories extra for QC. Toys that fail to pass QC disappear. 2 defective toys marked for the trash can be taken apart to make a good one. Skilled factory workers have the knowledge and access to machinery to use discarded molds or make new ones. Copies of official product are almost the same quality because they're all made by the same people. Factories themselves are either part of it taking a cut or turn a blind eye on their workers activity as it is just part of the business.

    2022? 40 years of Macross? You know Kawamori might retire by then.

    Money's in all things band related. Anime is there to promote the band. When band becomes unpopular they'll create a new series and a new band for it.
  17. Roy Focker
    Very impressive.

    I own this game and a swap disc to use it but never played it as my PS2 died the day before the game arrived in the mail.

    They did a good job with the body armor designs and that's about it.

    I'm stuck on a mission where you've got to blow up tanker trucks in a dust storm. Online play is really fun through.
  21. Roy Focker
    My copy arrived in the mail today. Played 3-4 missions. Enough to buy an F-14. Online matches are fun until some guy flying a better fighter kills you with a giant laser.
  22. Roy Focker
    May? Dang it I thought he was due in December. A 5 month delay is a big one.
  23. Roy Focker
    I have to wait for mine to arrive in the mail. Downloading my digital bonuses now.

    They've already made the Defender and that like contains 60% of the parts needed for the Tomahawk.
  25. Roy Focker
    I think they're real. Got them loose one from an estate sale and another from a fellow collector both in good condition.
