You're welcome & glad you like it @Raikkonen

Nice setting @enphily Love the strategic use of blur on the sand.

Someone posted a pic of the 31AX boosters some pages back, mounted Lil-Draken style on the 31 Siegfried at the end of the wings. And I thought it looked more natural and infinitely better than the original booster on top of wings. Edit: Found the post. Includes the booster sandwich pic.

Well we've been seeing quite a bit of the HMR VF-0 lately, apologies if it gets a bit too banal.. last couple of pics here before they go back into the display. Been trying to work on this shot but ultimately not very happy with the result. And the couple of them doing.. whatever it is they are doing lol.

VF-171EX Alto available at Amazon JP: https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/Chogokin-Macross-VF-171EX-Armored-Nightmare/dp/B0CGZDFTSR -
@Beko Pharm I am on the PS4. I got the Hori joystick to relive some Street Fighter & other fighting games just for a brief period. I don’t think a controller scheme would already have been finalised at this stage, but I’m optimistic that as with many games these days, the schemes would cater to a wide variety of controller types.

Thanks for posting the video @Mommar Finally get to glean a few things about the short gameplay: 1. Not very sure how I feel about the shots moving in the direction the VF is going in Fighter. I've never liked this type of shooting mechanic in other shoot-em-ups. On other hand, the stage/screen relative to the VF is pretty huge, and shooting semi-directionally prolly does help clear stuff across the far ends in a quicker manner. 2. I was thinking I could finally break out my wayyyy underused HORI joystick again for this game, until it got to the boss fight in Battroid. The way you lock on the shots in any 360 degree direction, independent of VF movement, appear to point that the second analog stick is necessary. Guess I can forget the joystick now, unless the shot directions are controlled using perhaps the shoulder buttons to rotate the VF. 3. Transformation appear to be encounter-dependent and not arbitrarily controlled anytime by the player. I think this is a good move, as the stages can be planned out more tightly and uniquely to each mode's abilities. But remains to be seen if other stages allow player to select between modes on the fly. If they do, I hope it is done in such a way that transforming is quite a necessity to get through that particular encounter, and not so much a personal flavor thing in which players usually just leave it in one mode all the way through.

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
MKT replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Only just became aware of this Yolopark 62cm Prime, just amazed by the details and the way little pistons and gears move as it articulates. Not so much by the price though The feature I really like are the magnetic activated light-ups; it is such a quality-of-life improvement. Although, I understand some of the smaller 3rd party toys are already doing this. -
Hmm I'm not sure if that's how she appears in comics, but Supergirl's face & sculpt seems a bit too.. bishoujo-ish? (hope I'm using the term correctly). It feels a bit out of place from the other DC superheroes.. Perhaps you may have found by now, but in case you haven't, here's a link: https://hobby-genki.com/en/marvel/23032-revoltech-amazing-yamaguchi-agent-venom-marvel-action-figure-limited-bonus-set-4537807220233.html

Perhaps there may a way to use the attachment pieces that came with the Lil Draken for the VF-31. Those attachment pieces provide additional hardpoints, but I don't know if they can be rigged somewhere on the 31AX wings.

I thought it might be a bit strange that the metal parts are left bare, but thankfully in the article it mentions: “The metal parts peeking through the legs are painted in the product.”

Ah spam again? I wanna give it a pass today, been having it for days. It’s turning into Groundhog Days lol.

Haha yeahh I see what you mean about the awful side cover lining, it really looks out of place.

New Macross Animation Announced, to be animated by Sunrise
MKT replied to seti88's topic in Movies and TV Series
+1. I think I actually enjoyed the Walkure concerts more than the TV series, and I listen to the concert tracks more than the studio ones. -
I think the greyish looking parts on the feet are wholly metal? As are the knees, shins and ankles. It looks like its going be a stellar toy - nice 80's chunkiness matched by nice tactile heavy metal feel. Just like the HMR Destroids lol.
-
Great haul there Having skipped customs tax and fees is already great savings! I think in the coming weeks and months, Mandarake will be one of your best friends. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1156788320&lang=en

I just remembered it too lol. They also included the parts for the Ghost in the VF-0, like HMR 0S Jenius blue, but never actually got around to making the Ghost.
-
The CEO did say that his intention was to have it look more like the animation, imperfections and all.
-
They did, on the very last episode - Shin & Focker vs Ivanov & Nora in some of the best mech scenes.

The online comments mention Moehime is apparently based in the same city NY used to be, and that when Moehime went live, their inventory was suspiciously similar to what NY had around the time they went down. I ordered something in-stock from Moehime few days ago, the tracking shows that it is being posted out from Ibaraki Post Office in Osaka prefecture.

I forgot about the Ghost, which complicates things further for the 0S. I agree the Ghost should have been packaged together right at the start, as the Ghost as a single piece standalone would be too small a release. Wonder if Bandai will really pull off a d*ck move to release an 0S+Ghost bundle and then another 0S+Reactive Armor release lol. To me, the ideal would be: 1. A 2-piece, Ghosts-only QF-2200D-A & QF-2200D-B release, and a standalone / 0S-bundled Reactive Armor release. 0A will be standalone like the current 0S. or 2. A Reactive Armor + Ghost release for the 0S, and the 0A bundled with a Ghost. I don't mind if it's just the QF-2200D-B Ghost variant here.
-
Liking the progress so far @Angesdad The 0S is a bit tricky to decide on duplicates, because we do not know if Bandai will issue a standalone armor-only pack, or a valk+armor set. Likely the latter going by the VF-1 releases. But I think the current prices have kinda just about bottomed out, as far as can be seen in Mandarake. 1/3 off retail in the secondary market, with new ones being about 1/4 off. I am afraid if this trend continues to the 0D on international release, Bandai will abandon it altogether and won't continue to the 0A..

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
MKT replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
@Lolicon nice you finally received the Moducases. I recall you had them ordered for a long time, perhaps this is the longest PO to delivery of anything? Lol
