There was a thread about excessive quote use. Guess some people didn't read it.

Perhaps, or if stores begin vamping up their orders and fail to clear out their inventories (like some have told me), we may see fewer stores carrying them in the future. Prices may not go down significantly and we the consumers might be SOL. As it is very few brick and mortar stores carry these, most places are online and few of the small ones can compare with BBTS in pricing. Add the fact VE is closing down, I seriously doubt the prices will in fact drop even if Yamato floods the market.

Depends if the price is right.

In ten years time do you still think you will be single with no GF or wife? I cannot speak for you but I certainly won't be single. But I do agree about not giving a rats ass what others think about my hobbies, especially Macross. If I sell things off and/or decide to concentrate my interests elsewhere, it is b/c it is soley MY decision and I alone know my priorities in life.

Not to be a downer guys but the total number of MWers is relatively small in the eyes of Yamato. Most of us only buy a few 1/48s at a time and with the upcoming flood of 1/48s, Yamato really will test how many of us can put our monies where our mouth is and "support them".

In ten years time I probably won't have time to deal with Macross toys even if they still release them. But that doesn't mean I still won't think fondly about it and the memories; I still see myself watching the anime series though that I doubt will change. However, I'd probably sell everything or close to everything by then, too many priorities by then and toys certainly won't be one of them. I am just glad I am not one of those super hoarders who'll be stuck with toys that they need to liquidate in the foreseeable future for other financial priorities. As for the closet comment, dude they are already there! And my personal take on the companies releasing products is they will continue doing it, as long as they can maintain interest and proftable sales. But, think about this fact, even URUSEI YATSURA which was the UNDISPUTED KING of anime in its day for nearly a decade cannot be revived. UY is pretty damn dead, sure reruns still air in JP I know I saw some just last month, but toywise very few things and NO new anime. IMO Macross' time will come in the future where it just isn't profitable enough to continue making new molds or series and by then I no longer expect to be involved. I will getting off of the Macross train by then. 'Nuff said.

I like it, looks like those hooker boots!

Yes but he actually posted a pic to share.

Anyone know? Come on share people! Thanks!

And in the classic URUSEI YATSURA Fourth Movie LUM THE FOREVER, and in KOKOWA (here is) GREENWOOD OVAs and many other animes. FOTNS shows up all over the place!

That is precisely why I never started collecting the colored English versions, I never thought they would finish it and as we all know FOTNS is LONG! While I liked the colored trades, I knew deep down it would be another Guyver situation that Viz fracked up by stopping the series. In that situation I believe sales were too low for them to justify releasing the individual volumes so they canned the series at a major battle! What Viz should've done is stopped the individual issues and COMPLETE the series by releasing a PERFECT COLLECTION in the trade format for Guyver, but no... that makes too much sense. FOTNS is dated and while I think the artwork in the manga is awesome the average manga and anime noob won't. The sales and lack thereof speaks volumes. FOTBS is newer but has even less of a following stateside to justify continuing the trades. To my knowledge they've stopped them is this correct? And anime would be nice but I highly doubt it will happen anytime soon.

Something like that, I was pretty disappointed with it.

Indeed! Yamato is NOT being practical in their expectations that people can ACTUALLY AFFORD to continue buying these at such a blistering pace. They seriously need to space out the releases! If they keep this up people cannot afford to buy more b/c they are coming out too damn quickly! SLOW THE FRACKING HELL DOWN and give our paychecks a chance to recoop!

they ARE looking good, cuz they're the HCM's, not Toynami robocraps. why duck? 366854[/snapback] As I am sure you've noticed, not everyone enjoys the HCM's, we have some pretty diehard 1/48 and 1/55 fans.

Whooahh Kensei! Damn dude that collection of yours is growing everytime you post pics! Please show more! Thanks!

Yeah I saw those pics! Awesome find! Niice! Congrats!

Now that would be something, the 1/60 VB-6 Monster!

Excellent! Looking forward to your next update then.

Any luck finding pics of Jerry's stuff?

Anyone else have that problem too? I need to try it with mine someday.
