  1. Glad you enjoyed it and I appreciate the info. I'm sure I butcher some other terms as well.
  2. I don't think it matters, their next announcement is a couple weeks away.
  3. Finally got my Arcadia review up. Sorry i'm a little monotone, still recovering from that cold. Starts a little slow too as there's a lot of history now. I think it's done in the highest resolution I've used yet so check it out on HD by going to my Youtube page.
  4. Maybe the Futurama license is doing well for them.
  5. 100% agree. I was thinking about this the other night. I bet they're going to announce Super Parts at Wonder Festival but the super parts will come with armors to make them standard color, blue, or red. They'll also announce stand alone (no super part included) versions of Max & Miriya VF-1J.. That's my guess.
  6. Alaska base? Uh... someone is too much of a diehard for completing the universe. The Alaska Base should be like an event exclusive or something.
  7. I think you only need 5 posts so get social!
  8. I've been thoroughly vetting mine. Should have a video review up in the next few days. I never really did a decent V2 VF-1 review so it's going to be exceedingly thorough.
  9. I hope you can recess the mirrors into the legs. They should make an aftermarket screw cover for inside the driver's compartment that includes a tiny hula dancer on top of it.
  10. I have a 9b, are there pictures of the issue?
  11. If they do Macross the First VF-1 toys they might also do a Macross the First SDF-1.
  12. Tightening the wing rotation point is very easily done with clear tape, and easily removed if you wanted to.
  13. But the Chinese team of triplets is said to be a terrific benefit that lets their Jaeger have an extra arm... it's not like they made it seem like three asians were needed to have the same level as the Americans. In fact, the Chinese were standing after the American Jaeger got beat down and retired. If we argue against nukes being the answer, would "reaction" weapons have been okay? Essentially a weapon that used something science fiction to cause an explosion big enough to kill a giant monster instead of something actually referred to as a "nuke". Are we arguing that the answer should have been diplomacy?
  14. Wow... that is so wrong.
  15. I really dig what was done recently with the Bandai YF-29 Isamu. Why not a VF-1 Isamu, a VF-1 Guld, a VF-1 Ozma, a VF-1 Brera, and a VF-1 Basara?
  16. I find that funny because that was like the worse shelf warmer of all valks.
  17. This thread needs pics
  18. Drawings vary a lot any way, I wouldn't get too hung up on minor line art variances.
  19. If I could collect more toys, these would definitely be on the list.
  20. Skull are you jutting the crotch forward on that bad boy? Looks a little flat.
  21. I believe it's bi-annual but can't swear to it. I feel like last year it was two months after Winter Wonderfest that some Bandai news broke. Even then, it wasn't everything... more news just popped out as advertisements on the Tamashii site. There was nothing, as I recall, revealed at Winter Wonderfest.
  22. Ah the dream of 1/72 scale. I think you and I Vifam are in a definite minority. 1/72 is such a natural fit for the Macross universe. Unfortunately much of what I've dreamed of for a V3 would likely be impossible in a smaller scale (it was probably asking a lot for a 1/60). At 1/72 we'd probably just get a small version of the V2 and then what's the point? Besides, I think Bandai's Hi-Metal 1/100 line proved that size does matter for Macross purchasers. I don't think they want a VF-1 less than 1/60 because anything smaller is 'fiddily' and 'feels cheap' even if its a damn fine toy.
  23. No, I thought Bandai ignores WF (except for maybe some figures). If they're going to wait for a show it will be the next Tamashii Nations event.
  24. While I like the concepts Zinjo is referring to, I can't help but feel they were handled horribly in Macross Frontier, particularly Frontier's movie-verse. It's like "We'll throw bits of these concepts into the plot, we won't flesh them out, they won't fit, but we have concert scenes to focus on!" I really wish the movies had gone more the DYRL route. Start us off with a Sheryl concert on Galaxy, not Frontier. Have Alto already be in the SMS. Then have SMS arrive at Galaxy after a distress signal and save some of the frigates, including Sheryl and Grace. Then you'd have a reason to have lots of Galaxy people on board Frontier for a later coup. Then don't have the coup fail, have it succeed but have SMS pull things off in the end. It seems like things could have been condensed more but the story actually improved upon fairly easily.
  25. I just opened my Isamu 29, I'll echo the sentiments of all those that said they received one that was clearly a little mistransformed. I had to transform mine almost completely to GERWALK and then back to fighter to get everything properly seated. Looked great after I did that but that was all the time I had today to handle it . I'll be doing a video review once my voice returns...
