At least never buy anything with expedited shipping from NY. I always pick SAL because when your standard shipping time is already 3 weeks a few day delay in shipping doesn't really mean a whole lot. Feel sorry for peeps who order like Fedex or EMS and wait 5 days for their products to ship, eliminating the purpose of super fast shipping lol

I have to admit I only bought the PS3 for Macross 30 and I still to this day haven't bought another game for the system O_o I would buy a Ps4 if it had macross too Can get a second-hand one for around the price of a Dx Valk these days so.....

Hehe pretty much she's the only support I used throughout all of chaos. As I unlocked more Walkure I Just added them to makina's support slots and it was EZ mode. You will HATE going from that to Windermere where there's no comparable support to Makina. I actually had to get good at the game at that point If you love Vita enough, get the handheld version, even if just for this game. They are getting cheaper in the 2nd hand market and the prospect of Macross Anywhere, anytime with ability to just put system to sleep on a dime and pick up right where you left off leads to VERY efficient macross-ing on the Go My train rides alone have allowed me to SS every mission and max out quiet a few ships. BTW here's how the 31A looks in game (you can take beautiful screen shots direct from VITA handheld by pressing PS button and start. And.. holy crap I noticed screenies taken on Vita automatically attach the big west copyright... that's legit!) You can imagine just how beautiful it looks on a small hand-held screen

That VF-31A is the free DLC edition. Like all the DLC craft it comes with free unlocks to 100% which is a huge time and money saver. but of course you get stuck with the itasha art. The Itasha VF-31A is 100% identical to the reg VF-31A in terms of starting stats and all weapon options. It is unlocked by just downloading the DLC. It's a great craft if you can get past the Itasha. The reg VF-31A looks way better though, especially with Super packs on hehe. Just wait until you unlock Makina and her infinite ammo super. it pretty much makes any craft with guns and rapid-fire missiles like the VF-31A unstoppable.

Yeah PSN is retarded. U can only use Japanese CC / paypal for direct billing on ur JP PSN acct. YOu can easily nab codes on Ebay for little to no markup. Also, u have to learn to navigate the PSN store entirely in Japanese as there's no English optoin for the PS store for JP accts (or at least I never tried looking for the english option since I can read Japanese anyways)

So...uh... They didn't learn that the cockpits on the heads are a bad idea after Crimson Typhoon's crew got smooshed so easily in the last movie? ;p

welp... time to whip out some 90% rubbing alcohol and those hard-tip tamiya q-tips I bought fro hobbylobby way back. Just gotta be careful with prepping the areas with masking tape

Scale Model Link Thread for Non Macross builds
Duymon replied to EXO's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Considering I can buy majority of their kits for like 40% everytime Hobby lobby (US chainstore) has a coupon and it costs under 15 dollars I'm not expecting a Tamiya 1:48 f-16 (they are so easy build themselves) or even a Hasegawa. Gotta say though their good-old 1:48 F-15E is still a pretty good kit after you drop in a resin Tub (or at least pop in some eduards color photo etch stickers if you're feeling really lazy) -
I bet 10 bucks near release we'll see a deluge of preorders open up as all the ebay scalpers will drop the POs of the switches they couldn't flip.
-
The DLC is tiny. 1G will be enough I think.

There's a VF-31J still sitting at Amiami for 23k... not awful http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-021748&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Fs_keywords%3Dvf-31j%24pagemax%3D40%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D1

nah, I was totally ok with it after I saw that the dock sold separate for 90 bucks, meaning I could probably trade in the dock on Day 1 at Failstop to recoup some of the funds to use towards a game.
-
This is why I'm so happy there's PC versions so that I can use whatever flight stick I want. Just a shame that the VR is rumored to be PS4 only
-
I can second this. The PAK line just keeps getting more and more expensive and I don't really see any huge improvements in the line. Considering they are in the $100+ range it makes you wonder if you should just splurge on 1/6 figures instead

New Macross TV Series in 20xx (sometime this decade)
Duymon replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
Fair Enough. I wasn't really one of the people clamoring for another Macross Zero anyways, I just wanted to point out that the precedent did exist. -
New Macross TV Series in 20xx (sometime this decade)
Duymon replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
Yeah, Macross has simiarities to those but what makes it macross is the concurrent origin stories of a male pilot, female idol singer, transforming robots and the power of music. so.... don't really see where you're trying to go with that.... I would probably say the reason you don't get recurring antagonists is probably because they got utterly defeated by the power of music ..... Wait... so actually do you agree with me that Macross follows the same formula over its TV series (except Mac 7)..... So do you care to explain Macross zero? Doesn't that sort of set the precedent that the franchise can revisit past characters in the macross universe? They didn't even make any really new mecha they just made precursor versions of the mecha we already loved in SFDM. So... with the existence of Mac Zero how is it unreasonable for fans to hope that maybe someday the franchise can do other side series that fill in other time-gaps in the Macross Universe without necessarily moving the timeline forward? -
Hori Already announced they're making a HOTAS for Ace Combat 7. HOpefully it's not just a rehash of the same saitek X-36 based flightstick they've released a million times already for PS2/3 and XB 360 Thrustmaster also already released a flight-stick for Ps4 but it's a piece of crap that still uses a potentiometer instead of hall-effect sensors. Funny enough it costs as much as the T16000M from the same company that uses the same hall-effect sensors as the Premium Warthog Stick which is the bomb. Best Joysticks imho ;0

He won't get it even if one does pop up because spanner will be spanner and nab it
-
Wow, actual marketing? IMpossiburu.... I remember how I stumbled across the WII U at random in a Toys R US when it came out and it was hiding in the corner... so alone.... Really hope the switch is different. Got $300 sitting in my paypal to pay for my Switch Preorder at release

New Macross TV Series in 20xx (sometime this decade)
Duymon replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
Really? Mac Delta pretty much follows the same formula as SDFM and Mac F 1. Unknown enemies attack 2. Boy saves girl in valk 3. Boy joins military / military organization 4. Random love triangle stuff thrown in 5. Boy grows into a hero character, idols use power of music to end conflict. add to that Having a Jenius descendant as a main character, fighting Zentradi in opening episodes and doing their flight training in VF-1 Exes (for the sake of having VF-1's) and then doing the good old Max and Milia fighting style for Hayate and Mirage? The opening episode of Mac F was like a nerd dream, especially that modern footage of megaroad-1 taking off. Let's not even get into Ranka doing a cover of DYRL, the patron of SMS having a minmay locket or Ozma naming his formations after Fire Bomber songs. New Fans would not have a clue what any of these things meant. -
New Macross TV Series in 20xx (sometime this decade)
Duymon replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
At this point I will approach this with cautious optimism. Whatever it takes to keep the plastic DX chogokin Heroin Train running -
What is this sleep you speak of? Nobody sleeps deeply until they a preorder or 5
-
Lookin good. Since the canopy is removable somebody should recast a canopy and put a hole in it with bloodstains and all
-
Super parts are looking nice. I'm still on the fence on whether or not I'll paint most of the parts grey so that the valk looks more armored up.

the pro controller looks interesting but with my hobby budget stretched across Macross, Video games and Warhammer 40k I think I'll have to pass due to the price. I think the only controllers I might end up buying for the switch are replacement joycons tbh
