  1. That makes sense. What's the last photo showing us? Is that the HMR extended or another model? I thought they were trying to tell us it could achieve 'tall mode' it something :P.
  2. Can you remind me why it extends so much?
  3. The world has shifted as Robotech's relevance and HG's stranglehold has waned. Most manufacturers want to dual badge to cast a wider net. My guess is TZ is hoping to get BW to license their product but it will never happen and they'll release Macross versions of their toys eventually. Crazy that we've come so far that the pilot names are now painted in the toy and that's the big differentiator. There are lots of non-Macross Robotech toys though so there's no perfect answer to how to structure the conversation. If each toy had its own thread that would be cumbersome.
  4. Sharon was a very different idol in all ways. They could go the Ishtar route with an alien singer as a way to make a different music experience. Still, if albums are how Macross makes its money, we have a pretty good idea what to expect.
  5. What are they like in the box? Still have the unused sticker sheets? We can find some comps on Yahoo Japan. I know one of mine is beat up and is like to replace it.
  6. Much easier to claim it's a feature, especially if all the toys are impacted.
  7. Maybe the HG staff are creating new names to separate the originals further.
  8. It's pretty common to see the chests on the Yamato 1/48s yellowing, particularly the DYRL colors.
  9. I believe the "with pilot" listings were an incentive to pre-order, now that it's been released, it makes sense there won't be listings with pilot and the pilot will need to be purchased separately.
  10. That one gets rid of the crazy-sized Legioss that looks like it's half buried in the ground.
  11. The bummer of the Hi-Metal R is that they had the foresight of knowing they would do the sound booster and knowing how Yamato came up short on it and instead decided to cheap it out and reuse their old sound booster (so it appears) with different clips. If they do a DX VF-19 like they teased, I sure hope they put more thought into how the two will connect but after the DX YF-21, I have my doubts.
  12. I was shopping for Taycans for a bit also, love them, then got a company car so no need to buy anything on my own. I'm going to hold off until black Friday to build my next computer, really hoping GPU stock is in better shape then. I have a 4090 in my gaming build and might just replace it with a 5080 and use the 4090 in my photo/movie rig.
  13. First, glad the site has been helpful, I'm still trying to plug away at it. You are correct, there are no special attachment pieces that would make the AX ghosts work with previous releases. I'm not sure if you could make it work with the attachment pieces that came with the previous ghost release... maybe someone else has tried that.
  14. Makes more sense if she's asking what beauty is though.
