New Macross TV Series in 20xx (sometime this decade)
kajnrig replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
So... where'd this news of a new Delta movie and/or series come from? -
That... didn't really answer my question, but I appreciate the response. I was asking if the doors are (reasonably) accurate to the original or if they were shortened by half to make room for what I'm presuming is the waist rotation. I know the hinged landing gear is a carry-over from the Advance. I'd argue that the Arcadia has its own inaccuracies that make it about on par with the DX in terms of accuracy. Thank you for also missing the point. I never said anything about line art accuracy, much less demanded it. I mean, there IS something to be said about adhering to the source material, knowing of course that concessions must be made for reality. There's also something to be said for this being especially true if you're going to make a $300 halo product. But that's getting away from the point. To answer my own question, I took some screenshots from the movie, the only ones I remember seeing the YF-19 with gears deployed. I couldn't find any art/sketches/etc. of the landing gear on the MMM. And it appears to be one of those things that, like the rest of the VF, can be liberally interpreted. The Hasegawa kits have it extend as far back as the base of the intakes, the Yamato/Arcadia toys extend it to about midway between the front and base of the intakes, and the Bandai DX cuts it off prematurely... which actually is fairly close to what it looks like in the last screenshot. Seems the primary concern in all cases was simply to allow the landing gear struts to fit inside the wells (or in Hasegawa's case, to appear to allow the struts to fit inside). So y'all can put down your pitchforks and stop making this about something it's not now. Yeesh.

Question: Is the front landing gear accurate, or did they fudge it to add the hip rotation/some other articulation? I know for sure the landing gear itself is inaccurate folding in half like that, but what about the bay doors? The Hasegawa model shows longer doors that extend to the base of the air intakes, but I know that details get fudged around a lot for this particular VF.

All Things Videogame Related: EXTREME VS!!
kajnrig replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I was talking about the new character shown around the 2:30 mark. In other gaming news, Telltale is shutting down and has laid off 90% of its team. That's a damn crying shame. http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/327085/Report_The_Walking_Dead_developer_Telltale_Games_shutting_down.php -
So because of this: It brings me to a previously asked question: Might Bandai be able to sell the YF-19 and other M+ merch (like a YF-21? Eh? Ehhhh????) locally?

Um... not sure where this best fits, so I'm just gonna spam a couple threads with it. Don't hate me too much. Bandai buys Bluefin for its US market distribution: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2018-09-21/bandai-namco-acquires-bluefin-establishes-u.s-toy-company/.137100 -

Would that be on top of the asking price, then? So it's not 32400 JPY shipped internationally, but 32400 JPY + ~$11 shipped internationally?
-
I've linked an interested person to your post, thanks. They might or might not PM you, I dunno.
-
Speaking of, Amazon Japan is currently sitting at 32,400 shipped, though I don't know if that's with international shipping. There are others cheaper with free/Prime shipping, but the free shipping options are Japan-only, and I don't think the Prime covers international shipping. Anyone know?
-
Calmed my nerves. Thanks.
-
For those who have this in their Private Warehouse, what are the available shipping options/costs?

Not me... :'(

Personally, I'm not too worried about HLJ. I'm thinking they'll wait til after the weekend before charging. I seem to remember them doing this before. They also have a listed release date of 9/29. Well, before changing it to Discontinued, anyway.

https://hlj.com/product/BANN55061 The pages themselves are never removed, you just can't find them through the normal searches anymore. There's the page in case you want to keep checking in the next few days/weeks/months.../years?
-
Has anyone gotten a payment request from HLJ yet? And actually, now I think about it, isn't it possible for this to be made available internationally? Considering M+ managed to get through the HG firewall, I'd imagine that merchandise might also be able to make it through...?
-
Oh, I do use Chrome. Sometimes it has trouble translating Amazon.co.jp pages, though, at least in my experience. Also, did not know about this. Tonight has been a learning night.
-
I went through From Japan like a fool! Domestic shipping, fees, and international shipping, that has to be at least an extra and totally preventable $15-25.
-
Oh. That simple, huh? Can't believe it never even crossed my mind to try...
-
I'm sure someone here would be interested. Put it up in the For Sale section and someone will almost assuredly take it off your hands.
-
How do you place international orders through Amazon Japan? The only way I know is through a middleman, but what about sellers/items able to ship internationally?
-
In fairness to the others, a lot of 5's roster consists of palette swaps or only slightly-modified models. The... four?... F-14 variants all use the same model IIRC, for instance.

I want to see them stumble on their own r34. I mean I don't, but I do. Speaking of, the "feisty mom" in the ad was the aunt from Bug Hero 6. Disney really catering to all the fetishes now, it seems...
